TODAY'S EPISODE:
Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! On this episode for August 26th, 2025, join your host, Hunter, as we journey together through another day in God’s Word. Today, we dive into the powerful prophecies found in Jeremiah chapters 50 and 51, where we hear God’s message concerning the fall of Babylon—a tale of justice, redemption, and the unwavering faithfulness of the Lord. We’ll also read from 3 John, reflecting on the contrasting lives of Diotrephes and Demetrius, and considering what it means to walk in the truth with humility and grace.
As always, Hunter guides us not only through the scriptures, but also into a time of prayer, personal reflection, and encouragement. Whether you’re a daily listener or just tuning in, take these minutes to nurture your soul, rest in God’s love, and set your heart for the path ahead. So, grab your Bible, find a quiet space, and let’s encounter God together—remembering, as always, that you are deeply loved.
TODAY'S DEVOTION:
Diotrephes and Demetrius, they couldn't be more different. Diotrephes was known to speak lies. He loved to be the leader and he made his life all about him. Demetrius spoke the truth. He was a humble traveling messenger that spoke the truth of the good news. His words of truth set people free, because that's what the truth does.
John said everyone speaks highly of Demetrius, as does the truth itself. The truth will always point us not to ourselves, but to God. And God's truth will set us free and give us joy.
So let's choose the way of Demetrius, the humble, truth speaking pilgrim, growing in the truth, being set free and knowing his joy. May God give us the heart of Demetrius. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that's the prayer that I have for you. May it be so.
TODAY'S PRAYERS:
Lord of heaven and earth, you have awakened us in your mercy once more. Still our anxious minds, quiet our striving hearts, and help us to rest in the knowledge that we are held by you. May we walk in step with your spirit today, not ahead, not behind, but beside you in trust and love through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
O God of all peoples, you formed every soul in your image and breathed life into every heart. Open the eyes of the nations, soften hearts grown cold, and teach us to live as neighbors and friends. Let your spirit move in power, renew the face of the earth and usher in your reign of peace. Amen.
And now, Lord, let me be a bearer of your peace. Where voices divide, let me speak grace. Where fear takes root, let me plant trust. Where the world rushes on, let me walk with you. May I seek not to climb but to kneel, not to win, but to love, not to grasp, but to give. For it is in emptying that we are filled, in surrender that we are strengthened, and in union with you that we find our truest joy. 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 trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.
