*TEXT: 1 TIMOTHY 6:6-10*

6. _But godliness with contentment is great gain._
7. _For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it._
8. _But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that._
9. _Those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction._
10. _For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs._

*TOPIC: CONTENTMENT*

Paul, in our reading, calls upon the Christians to be content with what they have and prioritise eternal things. He reminds the believers that God is good and will always supply all the needs of his children. He urges Christians to avoid the sin of greed and materialism because they cannot answer the deep needs of the soul. Contentment is more than focusing on what we have, but on the fact that all we have is given to us by the grace of God. Both material and spiritual blessings are by His grace. We get discontented when we feel we are not getting what we deserve or not as much as someone else. People with such an attitude easily wander from the faith, living in grief and regret. Some fall into the temptation of looting, prostitution, kidnapping, and so on. Be warned, the end is destructive.

*REFLECTION:* _Godliness with contentment is great gain._

*PRAYER:* _Lord, teach me to be content in your grace. Amen._

*Today's Bible Reading Plan:* _Job 26-27_

*TEXT: MATTHEW 5:38-39*

38. _“You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’_
39. _But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also._

*TOPIC: LETTING GO OF OFFENSE*

The Old Testament law permitted the authorities to punish offenders and prevent lawlessness (Ex. 21:23-25). In this text, Jesus prohibits humans from taking revenge. He encourages that offenders should be given a second chance. As beneficiaries of free salvation through grace, we ought to show grace by forgiving those who wrong us. Instead of retaliation, believers should show love and forgiveness. Turning the other cheek appears weak and illogical, yet it is possible to repay wickedness with love. God desires that Christians show mercy and do good to those who do evil. What do you think about wicked people who often plan and attack the innocent? Do you see letting go of offenses as a weakness? Forgiving them is giving room for God to avenge, and He will do it perfectly!

*REFLECTION:* _It is wise to overlook offenses (Prov. 19:11)._

*PRAYER:* _Lord, give me the strength to seek redress appropriately. Amen._

*Today's Bible Reading Plan:* _Job 24-25_

*TEXT: JEREMIAH 17:7-8*

7. _“But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him._
8. _They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.”_

*TOPIC: ABSOLUTE TRUST IN GOD*

The Psalmist eulogises that the one who delight in the law of the Lord is like a tree planted by streams of water, yielding its fruit in its season (Ps. 1:2-3). Jeremiah adjudges that happy is the man who trusts in the Lord. He is like a tree planted by water and does not fear heat or drought. Rather its leaves remain green and never cease to bear fruit. This implies that no matter the hardships, challenges and hostilities in this life, absolute trust in the Lord gives victory. Economic hardships, unemployment, insecurity and persecution are prevalent. Yet, those who trust in the Lord will prosper. But those who rely on human strength will wither. In whom do you take confidence? Help and support from friends and relations is good. But absolute trust in God is better. Do not give up!

*REFLECTION:* _God is dependable, so trust him completely!_

*PRAYER:* _My Lord, I place my confidence in you. Amen._

*Today's Bible Reading Plan:* _Job 22-23_

*TEXT: 1 PETER 2:1-3*

1. _Therefore, rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander of every kind._
2. _Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation,_
3. _now that you have tasted that the Lord is good._

*TOPIC: SHUN ENVY AND JEALOUSY*

Envy and jealousy are often associated with feelings of resentment over someone else's possessions and accomplishments. Peter urges Christians to eliminate these attitudes. Those who have been born again should crave spiritual milk and the word of God, so that they grow in faith and character and become like Christ. This will help them overcome the natural inclination of the unregenerate man. Indeed, once a believer has tasted the grace of God, sin loses its power over him. Unfortunately, some so-called believers are unwilling and envious of others' progress. Are you envious and jealous of your brother because of his possessions and achievements? It is of no benefit. Envy and jealousy hamper unity and progress in the family, community and church. To overcome envy and jealousy, always seek the spiritual nourishment and the well-being of others.

*REFLECTION:* _Are you jealous of someone?_

*PRAYER:* _Lord, I repent of any attitude of envy and jealousy in my life today. Amen._

*Today's Bible Reading Plan:* _Job 18-19_

*THURSDAY 21ST MAY, 2026*

*TEXT: LUKE 9:23-25*

23. _Then he said to them all: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me._
24. _For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it._
25. _What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit their very self?_

*TOPIC: CARRYING YOUR CROSS DAILY*

In our reading, Jesus tells his disciples the cost of following him. The cost requires that a disciple: (i) denies himself, renouncing personal control of his life, (ii) takes up his cross, making a commitment that may lead to rejection and possibly death, and (iii) follows Jesus, following the example of Jesus' teachings and lifestyle. To the Romans, the cross was a sign of suffering, torture, and death. However, for Christians, it is a complete identity with Jesus and a willingness to lay down their lives for His cause. It is also a symbol of death to the world, self, and sin. Many Christians seem to avoid the cross, but Christ's demand remains unchanged. He requires you to take up your cross daily and follow him. Anything less is lip service and superficial Christianity. A true disciple must be ready to die!

*REFLECTION:* _It pays to follow Christ._

*PRAYER:* _Lord, help me to carry my cross daily and follow you. Amen._

*Today's Bible Reading Plan:* _Job 15-17_

*TUESDAY 19TH MAY, 2026*

*TEXT: JOHN 6:25-29*

25. _When they found him on the other side of the lake, they asked him, “Rabbi, when did you get here?”_
26. _Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, you are looking for me, not because you saw the signs I performed but because you ate the loaves and had your fill._
27. _Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his seal of approval.”_
28. _Then they asked him, “What must we do to do the works God requires?”_
29. _Jesus answered, “The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent.”_

*TOPIC: LIVING WITH ETERNITY IN VIEW*

Jesus came to restore man to his lost glory. This can only happen when one believes in him as Lord and Saviour. In our text, people sought Jesus for physical and material benefits. But he cautions them not to work for food that perishes but to work for eternal food that lasts. They must focus on the things that truly matter and are not transient. Those who accept Jesus as their Lord must not place their attention on perishables like food, money and position, but on what endures to eternal life. It is painful to see some Christians using religion to gain prestige, comfort, or even political votes while paying little or no attention to kingdom business. What are your priorities? Do not lose sight of eternity and focus on material gains, which are temporal. Work for things of eternal value!

*REFLECTION:* _Labour for what lasts!_

*PRAYER:* _Jesus, help me to remain focused on things of eternal value. Amen._

*Today's Bible Reading Plan:* _Job 8-10_

*MONDAY 18TH MAY, 2026*

*TEXT: ROMANS 12:19-21*

19. _Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord._
20. _On the contrary: “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.”_
21. _Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good._

*TOPIC: AVOID EVIL*

The way to eternity does not permit evil. The recipient of God's grace has been translated from a kingdom where evil is prevalent. Now, he must guard against evil as he journeys to heaven. Believers face hostility and persecution daily on account of their faith in Christ. In our text, Paul counsels Christians not to seek vengeance or allow evil to overcome them; instead, they are to overcome evil with good. They can achieve this by treating their enemies with kindness. Has someone mistreated you so that you think revenge is ideal? Remember, Jesus did not mete out evil on those who crucified him; rather, he prayed for them. Besides, he does not condemn you for your sin but saves and ushers you into his kingdom. Avoiding evil is not a sign of weakness. Imitate Jesus by doing good.

*REFLECTION:* _Paying evil with evil hurts; avoid it._

*PRAYER:* _Lord, help me to respond with kind actions to those who hurt me. Amen._

*TEXT: ROMANS 3:27-30*

27. _Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded. Because of what law? The law that requires works? No, because of the law that requires faith._
28. _For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the law._
29. _Or is God the God of Jews only? Is he not the God of Gentiles too? Yes, of Gentiles too,_
30. _since there is only one God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith._

*TOPIC: SHUN LEGALISM*

Eternal life is not earned by observing the law. It is only by faith in the finished work of Christ on the cross that He satisfied God's demand for salvation. No human effort, no matter how lofty, can be added to what Jesus has accomplished. There is no work that man can do for God that qualifies him to enter heaven. It is disheartening to see people boast about their involvement in church activities and their adherence to rules and regulations, as if that is what defines an honest Christian. Have you been relying on performances of specific duties, thinking they will make you acceptable to God? Be reminded that your good deeds will not make you right with God. Turn to Jesus and have faith in Him. He is the only way to eternal life.

*REFLECTION:* _Legalism cannot earn you eternal life._

*PRAYER:* _Lord Jesus, help me to shun legalism. Amen._

*Today's Bible Reading Plan:* _Job 4-5_

*TEXT: ROMANS 12:1-2*

1. _Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship._
2. _Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will._

*TOPIC: TOTAL SURRENDER*

God has poured out His grace, undeserved love, mercy, and forgiveness to us through Christ. This demands a response far beyond words. We must surrender ourselves fully to Him by placing our entire lives - thoughts, desires, ambitions, and bodies - on the alter as living sacrifices. This is not a one-time event, but a daily choice to yield to God's will over our own. This kind of surrendering is not motivated by fear or duty, but by gratitude because grace has found us, transformed and enabled us to eschew the world's pattern (self-centeredness, pride, and conformity). In a world that pushes self-will; divine grace calls you to do God's will. How do you live your daily life as a believer? You are invited into a transformation, a renewal of mind that shapes how you live, think, and love. Cherish it!

*REFLECTION:* _Total surrender is not weakness, it is worship._

*PRAYER:* _Father, I offer my life to you today as a living sacrifice. Amen._

*Today's Bible Reading Plan:* _Job 1-3_
