Bible Reading Schedule

To structure your Bible reading using John MacArthur's dual-track method, you can follow this practical daily reading schedule. It balances high-volume reading in the Old Testament with deep, repetitive immersion in the New Testament.

Daily Time Commitment: ~30 to 45 Minutes

Track 1: Old Testament (Sequential Reading)

• Time: ~20 minutes daily.
• Goal: Read straight through the 39 books of the Old Testament to complete it in one year.
• Daily Target: Read approximately 3 chapters per day (or roughly 20 to 25 chapters per week).
• Strategy: If you hit a challenging genealogical or ceremonial section, keep moving. Note down your questions to research later so you don't lose momentum.

Track 2: New Testament (Repetitive Immersion)

• Time: ~15 to 20 minutes daily.
• Goal: Read the exact same New Testament book every single day for 30 consecutive days to cement its structure, flow, and themes into your memory.
• Daily Target: Read the entire selected book in one sitting each day.
• Handling Larger Books: For longer letters (like Romans or Matthew), divide them into manageable 7-to-8 chapter sections and spend 30 days on each section.

---

Step-by-Step New Testament Progression

To prevent burnout, it is highly recommended to start with shorter letters before tackling major theological or historical books. Here is an ideal sequence to build your momentum over your first year:

Phase 1: Foundational Letters (Months 1–3)

• Month 1: 1 John (5 chapters) — Excellent for learning the core tests of true faith.
• Month 2: Philippians (4 chapters) — A short, encouraging look at joy and humility.
• Month 3: Colossians (4 chapters) — Focuses deeply on the supremacy and sufficiency of Christ.

Phase 2: Gospel & Practical Living (Months 4–7)

• Month 4: The Gospel of John (Ch. 1–7)
• Month 5: The Gospel of John (Ch. 8–14)
• Month 6: The Gospel of John (Ch. 15–21) — Spending 90 total days here embeds the life of Christ into your thinking.
• Month 7: James (5 chapters) — Practical, hands-on wisdom for living out your faith.

Phase 3: Identity & Doctrine (Months 8–12)

• Month 8: Galatians (6 chapters) — Defending the true gospel of grace.
• Month 9: Ephesians (6 chapters) — Understanding your spiritual wealth and walk in Christ.
• Month 10: Romans (Ch. 1–8) — The foundational mechanics of gospel doctrine.
• Month 11: Romans (Ch. 9–16) — God's sovereignty and practical Christian duty.
• Month 12: 1 Thessalonians (5 chapters) — Encouragement regarding the local church and the second coming.

💡 Daily Study Habit Tip

While you read your 30-day New Testament book, keep an index card nearby. Write down a 2-to-3-word theme for each chapter (e.g., Philippians 1: To live is Christ; Philippians 2: The mind of Christ). Memorizing these brief chapter titles will quickly allow you to mentally map out the entire book.

David Guzik Study Guide for Jeremiah 31
Ephraim is My firstborn: Ephraim here represents Israel as a whole, as in the previous line. Yet it is significant that Ephraim was not the firstborn son of Jacob, yet God regarded him as firstborn. This shows that firstborn referred to more than birth order, it communicates the concept of preeminence.

Jer 31:15 LSB – [15] Thus says Yahweh, "A voice is heard in Ramah, Wailing [and] bitter weeping. Rachel is weeping for her children; She refuses to be comforted for her children Because they are no more."

Mat 2:16 LSB – [16] Then when Herod saw that he had been tricked by the magi, he became very enraged, and sent and slew all the male children who were in Bethlehem and all its vicinity, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had carefully determined from the magi.

Jer 31:33 LSB – [33] "But this is the covenant which I will cut with the house of Israel after those days," declares Yahweh: "I will put My law within them, and on their heart I will write it; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

Heb 8:10-13 LSB –

[10] "FOR THIS IS THE COVENANT THAT I WILL MAKE WITH THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL AFTER THOSE DAYS, SAYS THE LORD: I WILL PUT MY LAWS INTO THEIR MINDS, AND UPON THEIR HEARTS I WILL WRITE THEM. AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE.

[11] "AND THEY SHALL NOT TEACH EVERYONE HIS FELLOW CITIZEN, AND EVERYONE HIS BROTHER, SAYING, 'KNOW THE LORD,' FOR ALL WILL KNOW ME, FROM THE LEAST TO THE GREATEST OF THEM.

[12] "FOR I WILL BE MERCIFUL TO THEIR INIQUITIES, AND I WILL REMEMBER THEIR SINS NO MORE."

[13] When He said, "A new [covenant]," He has made the first obsolete. But whatever is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to disappear.

Heb 10:15-18 LSB –
[15] And the Holy Spirit also testifies to us, for after saying,
[16] "THIS IS THE COVENANT THAT I WILL MAKE WITH THEM AFTER THOSE DAYS, SAYS THE LORD: I WILL PUT MY LAWS UPON THEIR HEART, AND ON THEIR MIND I WILL WRITE THEM," [He then says],
[17] "AND THEIR SINS AND THEIR LAWLESS DEEDS I WILL REMEMBER NO MORE."
[18] Now where there is forgiveness of these things, there is no longer [any] offering for sin.

[25] 'And You have said to me, O Lord Yahweh, "Buy for yourself the field with money and call in witnesses"--but the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.'"

Jer 32:37-41 LSB – [37] "Behold, I will gather them out of all the lands to which I have banished them in My anger, in My wrath, and in great indignation; and I will cause them to return to this place and make them inhabit [it] in safety. [38] "And they shall be My people, and I will be their God; [39] and I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear Me always, for their own good and for [the good of] their children after them. [40] "And I will cut an everlasting covenant with them that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; and I will put the fear of Me in their hearts so that they will not turn away from Me.
