3 Verses a Day

Day 5 of this morning devotional explores finding peace in the storm through Psalm 29:11, Isaiah 26:3, and John 14:27. A painting contest once asked artists to depict peace — the winner showed a raging waterfall with a tiny bird's nest tucked safely behind the cascade, a mother bird sitting peacefully with her babies. That's the kind of peace God offers: not the absence of storms, but the presence...

Day 4 of this daily Bible reading examines how God's strength works through our weakness, drawing from Psalm 73:26, Isaiah 40:29-31, and Second Corinthians 12:9-10. Sometimes faith feels hard and we feel weak — maybe you're facing a health crisis, dealing with anxiety, or in a spiritually dry season. Here's what these Scriptures reveal: weakness isn't the opposite of faith; it's often the gateway...

Day 3 of this daily devotional explores walking by faith through Psalm 119:105, Habakkuk 2:4, and Second Corinthians 5:7. God's Word is a lamp for our feet — not a spotlight for our entire future.

In a culture that celebrates busyness and wears exhaustion like a badge of honor, what if the most productive thing you could do today is rest? David found rest not in the absence of problems but in the presence of God. Isaiah reminds us that rest comes through trust, not through try...

Day 1 of the 30-day devotional explores God's unfailing love through three Scripture readings: Psalm 136:1, Lamentations 3:22-23, and First John 4:16. The psalmist declares that God's love endures forever — not from a place of ease, but while running for his life and hiding in caves. Jeremiah penned his words about new mercies during one of the darkest chapters in Israel's history, reminding us th...

In this short introduction, Mark shares how the devotional was born from a simple realization: connecting with God doesn't need to be complicated. What if you just read three verses a day and talked to God about them? Each episode reads one Psalm, one Old Testament verse, and one New Testament verse — followed by...
