Job 1 Psalm 10:10-13 Proverbs 8:5-11 John 4:1-42 Daily Audio Bible Reading

Job 1
Job, a man from Uz, was blameless, upright, feared God, and shunned evil. He had seven sons, three daughters, and great wealth, including extensive livestock and servants. Job regularly made burnt offerings for his children, fearing they might have sinned. One day, Satan appeared before the Lord, who praised Job’s righteousness. Satan argued Job was faithful only because of his blessings. The Lord allowed Satan to test Job, sparing his life. In a series of disasters, Job lost his livestock, servants, and all his children. Despite his immense grief, Job did not sin or blame God.

Psalm 10:10-13
The helpless fall prey to the wicked’s strength, and they are crushed. The wicked say in their hearts that God has forgotten and will never see it. Rise up, Lord, lift up Your hand. Do not forget the afflicted. Why does the wicked man despise God and say to himself, “He will not call me to account”?

Proverbs 8:5-11
Gain prudence, you who are simple, and gain understanding, you who are foolish. Listen, for wisdom speaks noble things and opens her lips to speak what is right. Wisdom's mouth utters truth, and wickedness is detestable to her lips. All her words are righteous; none are crooked or perverse. They are straightforward to those who understand and right to those who find knowledge. Choose instruction instead of silver, and knowledge rather than choice gold, for wisdom is more precious than rubies, and nothing you desire compares with her.

John 4:1-42
Jesus, learning that the Pharisees heard about His growing following, left Judea for Galilee, passing through Samaria. At Jacob’s well, He met a Samaritan woman and asked her for a drink. She was surprised, as Jews didn’t associate with Samaritans. Jesus spoke of living water, which would prevent thirst forever. The woman asked for this water, so Jesus told her to call her husband, revealing her five past husbands and current unmarried situation. Recognizing Him as a prophet, she discussed worship with Jesus, who revealed the true worshipers would worship in spirit and truth. Jesus disclosed He was the Messiah. The woman shared this with her town, leading many to believe. Jesus stayed two days, teaching, and many more believed, acknowledging Him as the Savior of the world.
