June 4th, 26:Proverbs 28-29, Psalm 60, Romans 16: Daily Bible in a Year

Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible for June 4th, day 156 in our journey through the Scriptures. Join Speaker A, your brother and Bible reading coach, as we spend time together in God’s Word—today reading from Proverbs 28 and 29, Psalm 60, and Romans 16. In this episode, we’ll reflect on the theme of God’s strength made perfect in our weakness, the wisdom found in Proverbs, and Paul’s encouragement to the church in Rome to embrace unity and remain faithful. We’ll close with prayer, an invitation to rest in Christ’s presence, and a reminder that you are deeply loved. Let’s open our hearts and direct our focus to the One who gives life, hope, and peace.

TODAY'S DEVOTION:

He gives you strength for today. Do you need some good news? Here it is—you can be strong. God’s people are being offered strength through Christ. At the end of Romans 16, we’re told that all glory goes to the God who is able to make you strong. That’s the message for the church, for Jews and Gentiles alike: there’s strength for you, right now, in whatever situation you face.

God’s strength isn’t confined to your best days—it’s made perfect in your weakness. Paul, in 2 Corinthians 12, described how he repeatedly asked God to take away his weakness, the “thorn in the flesh.” God’s answer to him was clear: “My grace is sufficient for you. My power is made perfect in weakness.” That is good news, because, like Paul, there are days when we just don’t feel strong.

Paul learned, over time, that he could actually boast in his weakness. Why? Because it was then—precisely when he didn’t have it all together—that God’s strength showed up most clearly. That’s when he learned to rest in God. In those moments, he discovered a life that wasn’t driven by striving, but by abiding. It wasn’t about achieving, but about receiving.

So, are you feeling weak, weary, or emptied out by the burdens of the day? Christ’s abiding presence offers you real strength, right now. Take it by faith. Moment by moment, call on him, walk with him, and lean into his strength. Don’t try to conjure it up on your own—just rest, abide, and let his power carry you.

God is with you in whatever you’re facing. He wants to meet you right there in your weakness. He wants to do something important in you and through you. You can be strong today—because Christ is in you.

That’s a prayer I have for my own soul. That’s a prayer I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that is a prayer I have for you. May it be so.
