• Day 359 | Rebuilding the Gates of Jerusalem | Revelation 17: Red Beast Explained
    Dec 25 2025

    Audio Bible Day 359 of the Holy Bible One Year CHALLENGE.

    In Nehemiah chapters 3 and 4, the story is about rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem. Nehemiah leads the people in this big project, and everyone works together, each group repairing a different part of the wall. But they face challenges and opposition from people who don't want the wall rebuilt. Despite this, they keep working, trusting in God and even setting up guards to protect themselves while they work. It's a story about teamwork, faith, and overcoming obstacles.

    Revelation 17 in the Bible is a vision about a woman named "Babylon the Great," who represents evil and corruption. She is seen sitting on a beast with seven heads and ten horns, symbolizing powerful, worldly kingdoms. The vision shows that these evil forces are strong, but it also tells us they will eventually be defeated. It's a chapter about the battle between good and evil, and how good will win in the end.

  • Day 358 | Nehemiah: An Introduction | Revelation 16: Armageddon
    Dec 25 2024

    Day 358 of the Holy Bible One Year CHALLENGE.

    In Nehemiah 1-2, Nehemiah, who works for the king in a land far from his home, learns that his hometown, Jerusalem, is in ruins. He feels very sad and prays to God for help. The king notices Nehemiah's sadness and asks why. Nehemiah explains and asks the king if he can go back to rebuild Jerusalem. The king says yes and even gives Nehemiah supplies for the project. Nehemiah travels to Jerusalem and starts planning the rebuilding of the city walls, inspiring the people to work together. In Revelation 16, seven angels are given seven bowls filled with God's anger. Each angel pours out a bowl, causing different disasters. The first bowl causes painful sores on people who did wrong. The second and third bowls turn seas and rivers into blood. The fourth bowl makes the sun scorching hot. The fifth bowl brings darkness and pain. The sixth bowl dries up a big river, preparing for a big battle. The seventh bowl causes earthquakes and huge hailstones. These events are signs of God's power and judgment at the end of times.

  • Day 356 | Ezra: Prays for Protection | Revelation 14: Three Angels Harvest the Earth
    Dec 22 2025

    Day 356 of the Holy Bible One Year CHALLENGE.


    In Ezra 8:15-9:1-15, Ezra, a leader of the Israelites, organizes a group of people to return to Jerusalem from Babylon. He makes sure they have priests with them. When they arrive, Ezra discovers that some of the Israelites, including priests and leaders, have married people from nearby nations who don't follow God. This is against what God had instructed. Ezra feels very sad about this and prays to God, admitting the mistake and asking for guidance. This part of the Bible teaches about the importance of following God's instructions and being honest when mistakes are made.

    In Revelation 14:1-20, John sees a vision of Jesus (the Lamb) standing on Mount Zion with 144,000 people who have God's name written on their foreheads. These people are faithful to God. Then, three angels appear: the first one says to honor God because the time of judgment has come, the second announces the fall of Babylon (a symbol of evil), and the third warns against worshiping the beast and its image. After this, there's a vision of the earth's harvest, symbolizing God's judgment. The good grain (God's people) is saved, while the grapes (the wicked) are thrown into the winepress of God's wrath. This part of the Bible is about God's judgment and the importance of staying faithful to Him.

  • Day 355 | Ezra writes to the King of Persia | Revelation 13: Mark of the Beast 666
    Dec 22 2024

    Day 355 of the Holy Bible One Year CHALLENGE.

    Ezra 7:11-8:1-14 talks about a priest named Ezra who was given a letter by the king of Persia. The letter gave Ezra permission to go to Jerusalem and teach the people there about God's laws. Ezra gathered a group of Israelites, including priests and Levites, and they prepared to travel from Babylon to Jerusalem. This journey was important because it was part of God's plan to help His people learn more about Him and live according to His laws. Revelation 13:1-18 describes two beasts. The first beast comes out of the sea, has seven heads, ten horns, and is very powerful, getting its power from a dragon. The second beast comes out of the earth, has two horns like a lamb but speaks like a dragon. This second beast makes people on earth follow the first beast and marks them with a number, 666, known as the "mark of the beast." This part of Revelation is a symbolic way to talk about evil powers and how they can influence people away from God.

  • Day 353 | Ezra: Protests against the New Temple continue. Revelation 11: The 2 Witnesses
    Dec 19 2025

    Day 353 of the Holy Bible One Year CHALLENGE.

    In Ezra 4:6-24, the story tells about how some people who were against the Israelites rebuilding the Temple in Jerusalem wrote letters to various kings, including King Artaxerxes, to stop the construction. They claimed that rebuilding Jerusalem and its Temple would lead to rebellion against the kings. The king believed these claims and ordered the construction to stop, which it did until the reign of King Darius. This passage shows how the Israelites faced opposition and challenges in their efforts to rebuild their city and worship place.In Revelation 11, two witnesses for God are given power to prophesy for 1,260 days. They perform miracles and are eventually killed, but after three and a half days, God brings them back to life and takes them to heaven. Also, the seventh trumpet sounds, leading to loud voices in heaven declaring God's kingdom and celebrating His reign. This chapter symbolizes God's power, the importance of His message, and the eventual triumph of good over evil.

  • Day 352 | Ezra 4: People oppose the New Temple | Revelation 10: The 1st Terror
    Dec 18 2025

    Day 352 of the Holy Bible One Year CHALLENGE.

    In Ezra 2:68 to 4:1-5, the Israelites return to Jerusalem from exile. When they arrive, some people donate money to rebuild God's temple. However, when they start rebuilding, neighboring people who don't worship God try to stop them. They even write to the king to try to make the Israelites stop working. This shows that even when trying to do something good, there can be challenges and people who try to interfere.

    In Revelation 9:13 to chapter 10, John sees more visions about the end times. He hears an angel blow a trumpet, and this signals scary things like a big army and harmful plagues. Then, another angel appears with a little book. John is told to eat the book, which tastes sweet but makes his stomach bitter. This part of Revelation shows how God's messages can be good but also hard to accept, and it reminds us that God is in control even when scary or tough things happen.
