Daily Bible Reading for Friday, January 1, 2016

There are many different websites that offer reading plans to read the Bible in a year. Here is a really good one:  Read the KJV Bible in One Year. For today, why don't you read along with me chapters 1-4 in the book of Matthew.

Special verses:

"Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together , she was found with child of the Holy Ghost. Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example , was minded to put her away privily.  But while he thought on these things, behold , the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying , Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost. And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. Now all this was done , that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying ,  Behold , a virgin shall be with child , and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is , God with us." - Matthew 1:18-23

"But he answered and said , It is written , Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." - Matthew 4:4

"And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men." - Matthew 4:19

Note: If you have a reading disability that makes it difficult or impossible to read along with me this year, please consider going to Biblegateway.com and listening to the Bible. This is a great site with many resources, one of which is an audio version of the Bible.
