Today is March 9th, 2025, and we are joined by our guest Heather, who will take us through day 68 of our journey through the Scriptures. Heather, who joins us most Sundays, guides us as we come together to the Scriptures to witness Jesus, the source of our life, with people from around the globe. Today, we dive into Deuteronomy chapters 10 through 12 and conclude with Mark chapter 16. Together, we will explore the messages of covenant renewal, the love and obedience required by God, and the profound transformation of the resurrection. We are reminded that Jesus has not left us behind, but rather goes ahead to meet us. So, join us as we warm ourselves around the fire of God's love and allow the Holy Spirit to illuminate the Scriptures today. Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe to the podcast, and always remember, you are loved. TODAY'S DEVOTION: They entered the tomb grieving and weeping. Mary Magdalene is the first to arrive, and she is overcome with grief. Somehow, in this death, she feels left behind. This tomb, this cemetery, is all a painful reminder that she is all alone and grieving. This man that had delivered her from demonic possession, forgiven her of everything she had ever done, that had acknowledged her, seen her, and loved her, somehow left her behind. At least, that's what she thought. Until an angel in white shows up. He has a very simple message for her. He wants to let her know that he has not left her behind. This tomb seems to indicate that God has left us behind. In fact, every time we go to a funeral, we may be confronted with the thought that perhaps God has left us behind, that somehow it's all for nothing. But now, in this empty tomb, there's an angel there dressed in white. He has a new message for Mary and for you and me and the whole world. His message is to go. His message is to go tell the disciples and Peter that Jesus has not left us behind. In fact, he says these words: "Now go and tell his disciples, including Peter, that Jesus is going ahead of you to Galilee. You will see him there just as he told you before he died." The message of the resurrection is this: God has not left us behind. In fact, he has gone ahead of us into Galilee, and there he will meet us and convince us with his body, with his life, with his spirit, that he is with us from now until the end of the age. God has not left us behind or abandoned us. No. He has come to rescue us. He has come and rescued us completely. He is rescuing us from the despair of being left behind, left alone. That is the message of the resurrection. God has gone ahead. He is meeting us there, and he will continue to meet us each and every day of our life. Be convinced. Allow the Lord to convince you and live in the light of the God who goes ahead of you and meets you right where you are. Amen. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen. Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen. And now Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, Joy. Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you ...

Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to today's episode of the Daily Radio Bible, where we are on day 67 of our journey through Scripture. Our host, Hunter, guides us through the powerful narratives of Deuteronomy chapters seven through nine and the pivotal events of Mark 15. In this episode, we reflect on God's steadfast love and mercy despite human rebellion, as seen in the Israelites' journey and the sacrificial love of Christ on the cross. Hunter encourages us to see the Bible's invitation to draw closer to Jesus as our advocate and savior. Through prayer, Hunter leads us in seeking God's presence and purpose for our lives. Join us as we explore these profound truths and open our hearts to the wisdom and love of God. Let's walk this journey together, and remember, you are loved. TODAY'S DEVOTION: They were rebellious. They worshiped other gods even after God had rescued them from Egypt. After all that, they would still reject him. Like all people everywhere, we reject God. But God doesn't reject us. I know it sounds like this, like God is wanting to reject them, to do away with them in these passages we've read today. And God knows that's how we often feel, don't we? That God has rejected us, that he despises us, that he wants to judge us. And no doubt, this is what Moses believes to be true about the heart of God. But God's heart is not fully known to Moses yet. He, like we, are seeing things through a glass darkly. But one day, he will see fully. One day, he will fully know the heart of God. The day that he sees Jesus face to face. The day that he sees the Son of God offering himself on behalf of all rebellious humanity. On another mountain on Mount Moriah. On a cross. There in the Christological light of eternity, the true heart of God is being seen by Moses, and the heart he sees far exceeds what Moses could even think or imagine. Moses had to plead over and over again for these people. Over and over again, he falls face down to the ground and pleads time and time again that God would be merciful, and God was merciful. God's mercy was not because these people had somehow merited mercy, but because God had promised Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob that he would find a way to rescue them, to bless them, to make them his own. And his plan was not just for them, but for all people. Mark 15 shows us exactly how God's going to do that by offering himself, by pouring out his self-giving, sacrificial love on the cross, taking punishment on our behalf, ransoming us from sin, death, and the grave. He's doing something about rebel-hearted people there on that cross. He's forgiving them, shedding his blood for them, embracing them. He's rescuing them from their delusion. He has not come to judge the world, but to save the world through him. Someone greater than Moses is our advocate now. Jesus is the greater advocate. Jesus is undoing what Adam did. The vicarious life of Christ was not just for the descendants of Abraham. This was for all humanity. First Corinthians 15 verse 22: For as in Adam all die, so in Christ, all will be made alive. Jesus is a better Moses, and he has come to reveal the Father's heart to the world and to make a way for us to enter in and to occupy, not the land, but life in him. So, let us enter in by faith. God's good heart has been revealed, and you are his. That's a prayer that I have for my own soul. That's a prayer that I have for my family, for my wife, and my daughters, and my son. And that's a prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen. Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near.

  • March 7th, 25:Covenant Commands and Christ's Passion: A Scriptural Reflection

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to another episode of Daily Radio Bible. Today is March 7th, 2025, and this is day 66 of our journey through the bible. I'm your host, Hunter, joining you as your bible reading coach and spiritual companion. Today, we're diving into the rich scriptures found in Deuteronomy chapters 5 and 6, Psalm 43, and Mark 14. Together, we'll explore the decrees and regulations given to Israel as they prepared to enter the promised land, the heartfelt cries of Psalm 43, and the poignant events in the life of Jesus leading up to his betrayal. Through these readings, we'll uncover themes of faith, obedience, and the transformative power of self-giving love. Let's reflect, pray, and journey together as we draw closer to God and His word. So grab a cup of coffee, sit back, and join us for this meaningful time in the scriptures and prayer. TODAY'S DEVOTION: There's something that Peter, Judas, and all the disciples, even you and I, have in common: betrayal. Despite all our best intentions, despite all our resolve, we have betrayed him with our lips, our words, our feet with a kiss. We are all guilty of falling away. Isaiah says all of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We've all left God's path to follow our own. All of us have been deceived by a lie and separated ourselves from the source of our life. We've lived lives separating ourselves from God. We've all bitten into that deceitful fruit that makes us betray our God, ourselves, and others. So Jesus takes the cup. That's going to mean bitter suffering and death for him. It's a cup of his blood shed for you, for me, for the whole world. And Jesus offers himself in self-giving, radically forgiving, co-suffering love for all. In his death, he defeats death and draws us into his resurrection life. He drank the cup of suffering and hands us a cup of life, that we might participate with him in his self-giving, radically forgiving, co-suffering love. Having freely received, now we are invited to freely give and to join him in sharing his life with this world. So let's do that. Let us learn the ways of self-giving, radically forgiving, co-suffering love. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife, and my daughters, and my son. And that's the prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen. Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen. And now Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, Joy. Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ. Amen.
