TODAY'S EPISODE:

Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! On this episode for July 2nd, 2025, join your host Hunter as he guides us through another day in our year-long journey through the Bible. Today, we begin in Isaiah chapters 4 and 5, exploring powerful imagery of both judgment and restoration. We then move into Psalms 115 and 116, where we’re reminded to trust in the Lord and to praise Him for his steadfast love and deliverance. The reading finishes in Jude chapter 1, with a call to be vigilant in our faith, build each other up, and to receive more mercy, peace, and love in Christ than we ever thought possible.

As always, Hunter leads us in thoughtful reflection, heartfelt prayers, and encouragement to live out God’s love daily. Whether you’re seeking deeper understanding or simply some peace in your day, you’re invited to warm your heart by the fire of God’s love and be reminded of the blessings found in His word. So grab a cup of coffee, settle in, and let’s journey together through the Scriptures.

TODAY'S DEVOTION:

You’re going to need more—more mercy, more peace, and more love than you think. That’s what the book of Jude reminds us today. In this world that is often filled with scoffers, grumblers, liars, and all sorts of trouble, Jude calls out to us: "May God give you more and more mercy, peace, and love." And the good news is—He does. God offers us what we lack. He is our true and ultimate source of peace, love, and mercy.

It’s easy to look at the world and become discouraged, to feel overwhelmed by the lies we’ve been told or the ones we’ve learned to hold onto ourselves. But God gives us more in Christ. There is an invitation here—not to muster up these things on our own, but to receive from Him: mercy for our failings, peace in the midst of trouble, and love that has been poured out on all humanity—including you.

Because of Him, you can pray in the power of His Spirit today. Because of Him, you already have eternal life now, and there will come a day when you stand with Him in glory. In Christ, we find the "more" that our hearts deeply need. Apart from Him, we have nothing, but with Him, we have everything—enough for today and enough for the days to come.

So let us receive what He offers. Let us rest in the mercy we absolutely need. Let us abide in the peace that only He can give. Let us live in the love that has been lavished upon us. Live today in the "more" of Christ, and let your life be to the glory of God—the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

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

TODAY'S PRAYERS:

Loving God, you have knit us together in the body of Christ from every nation and tongue. Make us a vessel of your peace today. Make us a vessel of your peace today. Where hatred stirs, let us bear your love. Where wounds run deep, let us be agents of pardon. Where fear grips hearts, may we speak faith. Where sorrow hangs heavy, may we carry joy. Teach us to listen more than we speak. To understand before we are understood. To love. For in surrender, we find abundance. In mercy, we discover grace. And in dying, we rise into your life. In the name of Jesus. 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.
