SUMMER BIBLE READING PLAN
WEEK 13
Hello, Trinity Family!

I am celebrating our huge accomplishment—the daily reading of all four Gospels in one summer! Throughout this time, some of us have also read more than half of Psalms and all of Proverbs three times over. That’s pretty amazing! Your faithful devotion to God's Word will, no doubt, continue to bear good fruit. Although this is the last Bible Reading Plan email you’ll receive from us this season, our journey into the depths of God’s Word and God’s heart doesn’t have to come to an end. Now that we’ve developed this wonderful discipline for reading God’s Word each day, let’s continue studying the book of Acts—and beyond—to further enrich our understanding of the Kingdom. Let’s keep journeying through the Psalms and Proverbs, too, deepening passion and amplifying wisdom for daily living. This healthy habit will serve as an anchor for your soul.
 
Below is this week’s Bible Reading Plan. We'll finish reading the Gospel of John, which continues to unveil the beauty and glory of Jesus with stories of healing, miracles and revelation of God's Kingdom realm. John draws his book to a close with Christ's intercession in the Garden of Gethsemane, followed by a relatively brief account of His death and resurrection. Coming off the heels of 818:The Sign unity gathering, and Bishop Garlington's prophetic word about the Holy Spirit's unifying stream flowing from and drawing many to our house, Jesus' John 17 prayer— that we be one —leapt up off the page for me. Join me and Beck in making John 17 our ongoing prayer and practice.
 
Let’s also finish our summer strong by sharing with others about our rediscovery of how valuable, practical and powerful God’s Word is. Tag  @trinity_online  or use the  #tcbiblereading to share your story and encourage others to join you in reading God’s Word each day.

Weekly Prayer:
Wonderful Jesus, I'm so grateful You chose to spend Your last moments before the cross making intercession for Your followers — for me! You could have prayed for our safety, our happiness or our success, but You prayed for our unity in love instead. You prayed we'd be one, as You and the Father are One. You prayed we'd all be found in You and testify of You, Your love, Your mercy, Your compassion, Your grace, Your Kingdom, Your ways. Father, I agree with the prayer of Your Son today, and ask that You make us one. I want to be an answer to Your intercession and make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. We know it's Your love evident among us that causes others to believe. Standing in the gap for the lost to be saved, I pray You make us one, and my home, and our corporate house, Trinity Church, a pool of Your presence, where even rivals come to drink side by side from Your waters of life. Prayed in Jesus' Name. (Prayer taken from John 17)
 

Weekly Memory Verse(s): 

But I promise you this--the Holy Spirit will come upon you and you will be filled with power. - Acts 2:8 TPT

Let us see your miracles again, and let the rising generation see the glorious wonders you are famous for. - Psalm 90:16 TPT

God conceals the revelation of His word in the hiding place of His glory. But the honor of kings is revealed by how they thoroughly search out the deeper meaning of all that God says. - Proverbs 25:2 TPT

Daily Prayer:
Father, I'm so grateful for the gift of Your Word and for the Daily Bible Reading Plan You've brought me into this summer. I'm so grateful and amazed at the way in which Your Word is helping me grow in wisdom, draws my heart into understanding, empowers me to make right decisions. As I spend time reading Your Word this week, teach me more about You, how You work and how You move, so that I can walk onward in Your truth until everything within me brings honor to Your name .  Holy Spirit, help me hunger for it, eat of it daily, and share my portion of revelation knowledge with those in need of God's life-giving food. I pray in Jesus' Name. Amen .
