Day 30 of 40 covers Daniel, Hosea, Joel, and Amos and is all about God and human kingdoms.

"Despite the hurt, God remains committed to His people. Yes, He must discipline them - tearing them like a lion - but His committment to restoring the relationship is as sure as the rising of the sun at dawn and the rain showers in the spring ([Hosea] 5:14-6:3)." (Dr. Timothy Berrey, "40 Days Through The Bible")

Day 29 of 40 is God's glory on display.

"When God makes the statement that He will 'set' His glory among the nations, what He means is that they will see, experience, and acknowledge His glory. They will be brought face to face with the inescapable reality that Yahweh is earth's Sovereign." (Dr. Timothy Berrey, "40 Days Through The Bible")

Day 28 of 40 is a warning to Israel's rebellious house of Jerusalem's fall.

"This formula cuts to the heart of God's purposes in His judging and restoring. God is working in all life's circumstances to bring people to see, confess, and appreciate who He is! (Dr. Timothy Berrey, "40 Days Through The Bible")

Day 27 of 40 shows how Israel is disciplined but not destroyed.

"The terrible demise of Judah and Jerusalem is deserved punishment for repeated rebellion, but it is not the final chapter in their history. God will work through David's line to bring a Deliverer (the Righteous "Branch" mentioned in 25:5-6 and 33:14-16) who will make them the righteousness and the light to other nations He has intended them to be from the very beginning of His covenant dealings with them." (Dr. Timothy Berrey, "40 Days Through The Bible")

Day 26 of 40 is many passages of preaching to a people whom God must punish.

"The divine punishment warned of in Jeremiah 1-29 is severe but, like so many of God's warnings of judgement, conditional. Those to whom the warning is given have a chance to repent and avert the promised punishment. God does not change, and His will does not change; but when you or I change, we fall under a different set of decreed consequences (18:7-10)." (Dr. Timothy Berrey, "40 Days Through The Bible")

Day 25 of 40 shows comfort to praise.

"Isaiah 40-66 both announces this postexilic restoration and looks ahead to when Jerusalem is the headquarters of a kingdom whose subjects are God's servants." (Dr. Timothy Berrey, "40 Days Through The Bible")

Day 24 of 40 lets chastisement have its perfect work.

"Isaiah 1 and 35 bookend a thematic thread interwoven in the chapters in between: the joy of holiness lies at the far end of the pain of chastisement." (Dr. Timothy Berrey, "40 Days Through The Bible")

Day 23 of 40 has readings with themes of life's gardens.

"According to Ecclesiastes, the panacea for the futility of life under the sun is 'godliness with contentment.' Its 'ingredients' are four:

1. Recognize and accept the enigmas God allows in life 'under the sun.'

2. Embrace the wisdom God reveals.

3. Enjoy the gifts God gives.

4. In all and above all, reverence and obey God."

(Dr. Timothy Berrey, "40 Days Through The Bible")

Day 22 of 40 is all about wisdom's pathway.

"If the simple will heed these chapters, they have a chance of becoming wise. Gaining wisdom is crucial: walking in the path of wisdom is a protection, a shield from the evil that can so easily destroy you." (Dr. Timothy Berrey, "40 Days Through The Bible")

Day 21 of 40 is the third part of the pathway to praise. Psalms 107-150 are the Fifth Book of Psalms.

"Yahweh's enduring loyalty (chesed) is the hope of His people (147:11) and the focus of their praise (see Psalm 136)." (Dr. Timothy Berrey, "40 Days Through The Bible")
