LAMPLIGHT ONE-YEAR BIBLE READING PLAN

"Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path"
Ps 119:105

Second Edition: November 2002
First published: October 1994

Compiler's Notes

Time:
This plan should occupy on average 15 to 20 minutes each day. However, do allow time for prayer before and reflection after your reading to allow God to speak to you through His Holy Word. The Christian is built up and fully equipped through seeking the Lord in His Word and He will bless you through your regular study of it.
(2 Tim 3:16-17; Rev 1:3)

Old Testament:
Broadly chronological, but chapters remain whole. The book of Job is listed as Old Testament rather than as Wisdom, and is placed so as not to interrupt the flow of Genesis. I am indebted to Prayer for Israel for the order of Jeremiah, but do of course take full responsibility for any chronological or other errors there or anywhere.

Wisdom Literature:
A few psalms are repeated, some are placed with relevant Old or New Testament texts. Where no Wisdom scripture is indicated, the reader is invited to choose a Psalm to read.

New Testament:
Only John 1:1-18 is repeated, Gospels and groups of Epistles are then alternated. Their order is derived from a combination of assumed date of writing, position in the New Testament itself and theological development.
