Oh Lord You're Beautiful (Jesus Culture)

Beautiful song to help meditate on our beautiful Lord!

Oh Lord, you're beautiful,
Your face is all I seek,
For when your eyes are on this child,
Your grace abounds to me.

I want to take your word and shine it all around.
But first help me just to live it Lord.
And when I'm doing well, help me to never seek a crown.
For my reward is giving glory to you.

WEEK 1 (Read the Bible in 8 Weeks)

PLEASE BEGIN WITH PRAYER! asking God to 1) prepare the heart so that every aspect of ourselves could be fully focused on His Word, 2) to illuminate the truth through the Holy Spirit, and 3) to be changed for good (!) by the Word of God.

WEEK 1 (Genesis 1 - Numbers 16)

DAY 1
Genesis 1 to Genesis 36.
From Creation to Jacob meeting Esau settling in Shechem and the generations of Esau.

DAY 2
Genesis 37 to Exodus 10
From Joseph being sold to the Ishmaelites, to God preparing Moses for the last plague.

DAY 3
Exodus 11 to Exodus 36
From the institution of the passover and final plague to the construction of the tent of meeting.

DAY 4
Exodus 37 to Leviticus 16
From the building of the ark and furnishings of the tabernacle to the Day of At0nement.

DAY 5
Leviticus 17 to Numbers 16
From instructions of making sacrifice at the entrance of the tent of meeting to Korah’s rebellion

Read the Bible in 8 weeks (40 work days)!

I have found a blog to help us do an entire reading of the Scriptures in 9 weeks (end of 2011).
http://faithbyhearing.wordpress.com/category/8-weeks-thru-the-bible/
The guy who did it broke it down this way:
"Beginning next week I will be starting an 8 week trek through my favorite audio Bible, Max McLean’s Listener’s Bible in ESV.  There are 1186 chapters, and McLean’s Bible audio version is almost 75 hours long. Over 8 weeks this breaks down to roughly 9 hours 20 minutes per week, 1 hour 50 minutes per day, which means 55 minutes each commute. That easily fits into my 1 hour 15 minute commute.
I project that my progress will look something like this:
Week 1: Genesis – Numbers
Week 2: Deuteronomy – 2 Samuel
Week 3: 1 Kings – Nehemiah
Week 4: Esther – Psalms
Week 5: Proverbs – Isaiah
Week 6: Jeremiah – Hosea
Week 7: Joel – Luke
Week 8: John – Revelation
There’s nothing quite like immersing yourself in the spoken word for an intense duration. The picture of God’s Word that emerges is priceless. I encourage you to join me on this trek."

From my experience, reading it with an audio Bible helps stay on track (speed) and focused.
If you would like a downloaded mp3 files of the NIV please let me know and I can give them to you.
Or there are several ways you can do this through online resources (i.e. Podcasts, online streaming, online downloads).
This time I am going to slowdown and read at a normal pace (versus reading it with the audio Bible sped up 3 times! to do it in 4 days) for 8 weeks. And I will post a blog every week to keep us on track (I will mainly use the format from the blog I shared earlier).

I pray that you will be blessed through this project!


Great peace have those who love your law; nothing can make them stumble.  Psalm 119:165 (ESV)

Be part of "1-1-1 Dedication Movement!"
