  • June 27 — What the Lord Requires — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | Micah 6–7 | Resolved to Read

    IIn today’s reading from Micah 6:1–7:20, God confronts a people who continue to offer sacrifices while refusing to turn from injustice, deceit, and violence. Through Micah’s words, we are reminded that outward acts of religion mean nothing when the heart remains unchanged—what the Lord desires is that we act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with our God. This truth reaches us even now: we cannot claim the sacrifice of Jesus while continuing to cherish evil, cheat others, lie, and destroy those around us. His sacrifice is not a license to remain unchanged, but the call and power to live as a people transformed by grace.

  • June 26 — The King from Bethlehem and the People Who Walk in His Name — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | Micah 3–5 | Resolved to Read

    In today’s reading from Micah 3:1–5:13, God rebukes corrupt leaders and false prophets, yet also gives a breathtaking vision of hope through the coming King from Bethlehem. Micah 4:5 draws a clear line between the nations who walk in the names of their gods and the people who walk in the name of the Lord, and Micah 5:2–5 points us to Jesus, the promised ruler and shepherd who would come from Bethlehem. These chapters remind us that God’s people are meant to stand apart—not as one earthly nation among others, but as the worldwide people of Christ, our King, who walk together in His name.

  • June 25 — The One Who Breaks Open the Way — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | Micah 1–2 | Resolved to Read

    In today’s reading from Micah 1:1–2:13, God exposes a people who would rather listen to flattering lies than confront the truth, as Micah 2:11 so vividly shows. Yet even in the midst of judgment, hope breaks through: in Micah 2:13, we catch a glimpse of the One who “breaks open the way,” leading His people out in freedom and victory. These chapters remind us that while false voices tell us what we want to hear, Jesus is the true Shepherd and King who makes a way for His people to follow Him.

  • June 24 — A Man with Unclean Lips Sees God — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | Isaiah 6; 2 Kings 15; 2 Chronicles 26–27 | Resolved to Read

    In today’s reading from Isaiah 6:1–13, 2 Kings 15:19–35, and 2 Chronicles 26:22–27:6, we are drawn into Isaiah’s breathtaking vision of the Lord—high and exalted, holy beyond compare, and still willing to cleanse and send a humbled servant. Alongside the reigns of Judah’s and Israel’s kings, this passage reminds us that above every earthly throne stands the true King, whose holiness exposes our sin, purifies our lips, and calls us to faithful obedience.

  • June 23 — Pride Brought Low, the Lord Alone Exalted — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | Isaiah 1; 2; 3–4; 32; 5 | Resolved to Read

    In today’s reading from Isaiah 1:1–9, 21–26; 2:6–18; 3:8–4:1; 32:9–11; 5:1–23, God exposes the pride and complacency that have corrupted His people. A once‑faithful city has become unfaithful, the comfortable are warned to tremble, and the haughty are told that “the Lord alone will be exalted in that day.” Through the song of the vineyard, He grieves the “wild grapes” of injustice and self‑indulgence grown from such careful tending. Yet woven through the warnings is mercy and the promise of restoration—calling us to humble ourselves before the One who alone is worthy of our trust.

  • June 22 — Confronting the King, Confronting the People — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | Amos | Resolved to Read

    In today’s reading from Amos 7:10–17, 2 Kings 14:28–15:18, and 2 Chronicles 26:16–21, we see what happens when God’s truth collides with human pride. Amaziah the priest tries to silence Amos, but the prophet stands firm in his calling. Meanwhile, the reigns of Israel’s and Judah’s kings unfold—including Uzziah, whose success leads to pride and a presumptuous act in the temple that brings God’s judgment of leprosy. These passages remind us that no position protects us from accountability before God, and that humility, not status, is the path of faithfulness.

  • June 21 — What Happens When Our Worship Offends God? — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | Amos 5–9 | Resolved to Read

    In today’s reading from Amos 5:1–9:15, God calls His people to “seek me and live,” pleading with them to let justice roll down like waters and righteousness like an ever‑flowing stream. Yet Israel’s complacency, empty worship, and injustice bring sobering visions of judgment—a reminder that even the people of God are not immune when they turn from Him. Still, Amos ends with hope: a promise that God will one day restore, rebuild, and plant His people, never to be uprooted again.

  • June 20 — Prepare to Meet Your God — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | Amos 1–4 | Resolved to Read

    In today’s reading from Amos 1:1–4:13, the prophet pronounces God’s judgment on the surrounding nations—and then turns the spotlight on Israel and Judah, who knew God’s law yet abandoned it. Amos exposes injustice, empty religion, and hearts grown comfortable in sin. Again and again God recounts the hardships He sent, lamenting, “yet you have not returned to me.” These chapters remind us that sometimes God allows calamity to get our attention, calling us back to Himself before it’s too late: “Prepare to meet your God.”

  • June 19 — "When They Were Satisfied, They Forgot Me" — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | Hosea 10–14 | Resolved to Read

    In today’s reading from Hosea 10:1–14:9, 2 Kings 14:17–15:4, and 2 Chronicles 25:25–26:15, we hear God’s heartbroken love for a people who keep wandering away. One verse captures the whole tragedy: “When I fed them, they were satisfied; when they were satisfied, they became proud; then they forgot me.” Prosperity, meant to draw Israel closer, instead bred pride and forgetfulness. Yet Hosea closes with a tender plea to return, and a promise that God will heal their waywardness and love them freely. These chapters warn us how easily comfort can dull our devotion—and call us to remember the One who satisfies.

  • June 18 — Hosea: A Nation That Forgot Its God — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | Hosea 4–9 | Resolved to Read

    In today’s reading from Hosea 4:1–9:17, God brings a sweeping charge against Israel: no faithfulness, no steadfast love, and no knowledge of God in the land. Hosea exposes the people’s idolatry, corrupt priests, and misplaced trust in political alliances rather than the Lord. These warnings were not idle words—within a generation, in 723 B.C., Samaria, the capital of Israel, would fall just as Hosea foretold. The chapters call us to genuine repentance and to truly know the God who longs for our wholehearted return.
