Bible in 90 Days

Another one of my goals for the year is to read the bible in 90 Days. (I really need to get my goal post written and posted!) Anyhow, I have joined a wonderful group of ladies from The Homeschool Village and other blogs to do this the first 90 days of the year. Today is Day 1 and I am so excited! We will be reading Genesis 1:1-Genesis 16:16.

There are a couple of reasons that I want to do this. First off, and this is hard for me to say, I have never read the bible completely through. Oh sure I have read quite a few scriptures, but as for reading cover to cover, I have never done that. Secondly, I want to read every word that God inspired his chosen ones to write. The only way I can teach others about Jesus, is to be knowledgeable in His word. There will be a couple of verses I will be clinging to, getting myself through this.

2 Timothy 2:15
15 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth.

and

Philippians 4:13
13 I can do all things through him who strengthens me.

Jezamama is leading our group. She has some great tips for those who want to read the bible in 90 days. Actually, they are great tips for anyone who wants to read the bible completely through!

If you decide to read through the bible this year, I would be more than happy to help be an encouragement to you. It is important for God’s children to know His word!

I am always excited about iFellowship. Why? You can meet up with some awesome women who love the Lord. I also love to share scripture with you that has spoken to my heart throughout the week. I missed last week because I was tending sick kids. So I have several verses that I want to share. However, before I do, I want to tell you a little about how I came across these verses.

Several homeschool moms that I am in a group with got together to pray last Tuesday morning. To pray for our group and to pray for the families in the group. You see, this summer quite a few families have had issues, loss of loved ones, accidents and other situations to happen. It was almost like our homeschool group was being attacked spiritually. We felt the need to come together, to lift up God’s name in praise and worship and then to lift up our burdens before the Lord. While we were praising God, several moms read scripture. So this is where those will be coming from and the meaning behind them. I also ask that you would continue to remember our homescool group, Great Smokies Christian Home Educators in your prayers. Our goal is to be a light to other homeschooling families. To show the love of Jesus as we educate our children at home.

Now here are the scriptures I we shared with one another on that blessed morning.

Philippians 4:6
6 do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
John 16:33
33 I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”
1 Peter 5:6-7
6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, 7 casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.
Psalm 91
Psalm 103
Ephesians 1
Psalm 27
Psalm 94:16
Isaiah 60:1-4
Acts 10:38
Zephaniah 3:17
John 16:33
Philippians 4:6
1 Peter 5:6-7

It was a truly amazing time of prayer with those wonderful ladies. We are looking forward to doing it again. I encourage you to read your bible. God has put everything in there that we need to know.

I also want to encourage you to stop by Seeds of Faith. It is a wonderful group of women who love the Lord and wants to encourage you all. Be sure to stop by those who are taking part in iFellowship today. I know you will get a blessing out of visiting them!
