Psalms 102-108
Judges 5-9
Hebrews 12-13, James 1-3
James 1:17 reminds us that, "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.(NKJV) How fitting a verse to read this first week of November. As the time for Thanksgiving celebrations draws near let us remember who it is that we are "giving thanks" to! Let the attitude of our hearts truly be one of thanksgiving as we recognize all that God has done for us, and all that He has promised to do, for as the very next verse of James 1 tells us, "Of His own will He brought us forth by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of first-fruits of His creatures." (NKJV) May the Lord richly bless you as you read His word this week!
This blog is dedicated to encouraging people to both read and heed (obey) the Bible. It is intended as a place to turn for encouragement and helpful suggestions regarding the reading of God's Word.

Reading Assignment for October 10th - 16th
Psalm 81-87
Joshua 14-18
Titus 1-3, Philemon 1, Hebrews 1
This week will bring us to some of my favorite passages in the Bible pertaining to our Lord Jesus Christ. On Friday we will be reading Hebrews chapter 1 in which we read that God communicated in times past in a variety of ways with His people but in these last days has communicated with us by His Son! Jesus is the divine revelation. He is the express image of the Father! What glorious passages we find here! What an awesome revelation of the Glory of God! I pray that you are as blessed by reading these words as I am. May the Lord abundantly bless you as you read His word this week.

Reading Assignment for September 26th - October 2nd
Psalms 67-73
Joshua 4-8
I Timothy 1-6
I know that this gives us one more chapter in the New Testament than usual but seeing as how I Timothy has only 6 Chapters it makes sense to read it all in the same week. Hope you don't mind the extra assignment. May the Lord bless you richly as you read His Word this week!

Reading Assignment for September 19th - 25th
Devotional Reading:
Psalm60-66
Old Testament:
Deuteronomy 33-34, and Joshua 1-3
New Testament:
I Thessalonians 4-5 and II Thessalonians 1-3
"A Word of Advice"
Welcome to "Read and Heed The Word!" If you are joining us for the first time, or if you have fallen behind and don't think that you can catch up within a week, then I would suggest the following strategy.
This week we are transitioning between two books, we are leaving behind both Deuteronomy and I Thessalonians and moving into Joshua and II Thessalonians. This would be a great time to jump right into the reading. I would suggest reading all of the assigned chapters from Psalms this week. One per day, starting Sunday and working your way through. As for the Old and New Testament assignments, I would recommend reading the assigned chapters from Joshua and II Thessalonians and then keeping pace, one chapter per day from each book Monday through Friday. This will allow you a few days grace to ease into the reading plan.
As for the parts that you have missed, not to worry! Reading the Bible is a life long process that should be repeated many times over. What we have already read you can get on the next time through! By joining us where we are and working forward from here you have the benefit of being able to leave your questions and comments and interacting with the others on this site, as well as the occasional devotionals that are left relating to the chapters that we are reading.
One other strategy, for those who like to do things in order, would be to go back to earlier posts from the beginning of the year and start your reading plan from the beginning! Either way, the important thing is that you start reading your Bible today, and heeding the word of God by applying it to your daily life. Feel free to leave questions or comments about the Bible on the site whether you are reading along with us or on your own! We would love to hear from you.
Blessings all!
