- 📖 Follow along with the official Bible in a Year Reading Plan: tinyurl.com/yg9r72fg
Fr. Mike explains why it's better to seek counsel from those who don't necessarily always agree with us, using the experience of Rehobo′am as an example. He also touches on the failed leadership of Jerobo′am as he leads his people into false places of worship and idolatry. Today's readings are 1 Kings 12, 2 Chronicles 10-11, and Song of Solomon 1.
We hear everyday from our community how The Bible in a Year helps to capture hearts and souls for Christ. While we’re happy to make it free to our audience, it’s not free to create! It takes a significant investment to produce the podcast and distribute it free-of-cost to the public. You can make a gift of financial support to help defray these costs and enable us to keep bringing evangelizing digital media to all those searching for God: tinyurl.com/yjoyaeow Thank you for your support.

Day 162 June 9, 2024. 2nd time through Bible in a Year. God bless all y’all going through the BIY this year & years to come.🙏❤️
Thing are really in the air here and I am praying for the outcome that is best for all.. I hope that you are doing okay. ❤🙏
@@dianefrank3688 Diane, I’ll definitely pray for you. Can you tell me what’s up? I’m doing ok. You’re still not getting most of my comments.

My brother fell off a latter and for four days it looked like he was going to recover and then he had a massive brain bleed and died. He did have Extreme Unction & Viaticum. He was the caregiver for his wife, Sue who has dementia (Alz) & she is a closet alcoholic. She had been staying at her daughters in Chicago but kept wanting to get back to FL. I told them it is because she has total access to the alcohol here and can go to her room which has a setting area and sit and drink 1-2 large bottles of champagne. Her daughter from Colo picked her up in Chicago and brought her to Fl for the month of June. She was good when she got here as she did not have free access to alcohol but in two days you could see the difference even on her face as it really affects her mentality. The one daughter was deciding on whether to quit her job and care for her Mom. After seeing how fast she has drank and mentally declined the daughter said that probably her mom would get so bad that she would need a nursing home in a year. Deidre would have then given up her dream job and be stuck 35miles from the nearest town to find work. I live in the garage apartment so this affects me. Also they do not have the means to pay me the money my brother borrowed from me in 2010. I do not know why you can't get my messages as everyone else does. I hope you get this message. I miss chatting with you. 🥰🙏 @@TrixRN
Lord Jesus, I humbly pray for myself, Father Mike, & all the people participating in the Bible-in-Year podcast. May your word take deep root in our hearts & transform our ways of thinking, deciding, and acting. May your grace open our ears to hear & understand God's voice in the Scriptures that we may revere & treasure both the Old & the New Testaments which God has prepared for all who desire to enter his kingdom. Send us your Holy Spirit to give us the Spirit of Knowledge, that we may know God and know ourselves. Give us the grace to approach the Word of God with meekness & humility, & with an eagerness to do everything God desires. Help us to be diligent students & faithful disciples of your Word. May our hearts never grow dull & may our ears never tire of listening to your voice. Amen.
Amen.
Amen! Beautiful prayer. ❤🙏
AMEN and AMÉN 🙏❤😇
Amen, well said 🙏
Day 162 - today Monday June 10th, 2024
June is dedicated to The Sacred Heart Of Jesus ❤❤❤❤❤❤
A divided kingdom - not good at all. Like the saying says united we stand, divided we fall.
I am redoing The Bible in a year podcast for the third time 🎉❤ because I can not have enough of it. Thank you Father Mike Schmitz and Ascension press 🙏💙❤ God bless you all. Deo gratias ❤❤❤
June 10 2024, Monday. Here I am.
Here 🙏😃👍
So much to remember and understand I would never have been able to get this understanding from reading the Bible alone, thank you Fr. Mike for explaining it so well. Amen
Day 162..the divided kingdom, what a shame but really was necessary.
You'd thought that the Israelite's would have learned from sacrificing to the Golden calves..
It appeared that Rehoboam did what was pleasing in the eyes of the Lord..too bad this was only temporary 😢
Prayers for Father Mike and all the BIY family 🙏❤
Thanks for the prayers and I am praying for all of BIY & Fr. Mike also. My niece is here with her mother Sue, who has dementia. I guess Sue is choosing the alcohol instead of her sanity. She is not suppose to drink with her medication or drive. Her daughter was deciding whether to give up her job in Colo which she loved and stay in FL to care for her mother. With Sue declining so fast from the alcohol she does not think it is safe for her mother to live in FL where she has free reign to the alcohol and also is fighting about it even after drinking two bottle a day of champagne. She also keeps fighting about driving. They arrived on June 5 and I can really notice a big decline in her mental state. Deidre is going to stay the month of June and then go back to Colo. Sue is making her own choice but it is so sad.😢🙏
@@dianefrank3688Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry to hear all of this. We sometimes make decisions that have adverse effects on our health. I myself made these decisions many years ago, the the Lord and the law if I might add, forced me to do things a different way. I praise the Holy Spirit for finally getting through to me. Maybe God will somehow shine his light on her too, before it's too late. I will continue praying for all of these things to get handled, so all of your extended family members will find some peace. Take care and God bless ❤ 🙏
@@roknrone Thank you so much for your prayers. 🥰 I guess that is all we can do. She is my dead brother's wife so I really do not have a say. I live in the garage apartment so it does affect me somewhat. I just have to remember that she is choosing alcohol over sanity and it is her choice.🥵
@@dianefrank3688Alcohol destroys more lifes than many cancers and also diseases..sad but true. Still, you'll be in my thoughts and prayers 🙏 ❤
So sorry Sue is blocking her pain with alcohol…… and the effect that is having on you Diane. My prayers continue. 🙏
Lord, help me to follow Your plan
This is such a game changer in reading the Bible!! This podcast has changed my life, by God's grace.
Thank you father Mike, praying for you and everyone watching this.. God bless ❤️🙏🏻
Day 162: Lord help me be with you.
I do not pretend that I understand what is being read and taught but that doesn't stop my trying...
Keep at it. The Bible isn't easy but Fr. Mike helps alot.
@@cbtherepetitiveparthelpsme957 As I go thru life's cycles(I am a grandparent) the meaning never changes only the application shifts.
Lord, We thank you for your Word and the wisdom it brings. May we always come to you first for discernment and second to those in our lives blessed with your wisdom. Lead us away from what our itching ears want to hear and immerse us in your truth and mercy. Thank you for wooing us and giving us the gift of marriage. Help us to see the beauty in relationships. Show us how to display your sacrificial love. 🙏🏻
Firstly can I say 'thank you' to whoever decided this series should remain available after the initial 365 days - I am currently on day 162 - in 2022 - and I am so grateful that I can do this; of course I can do as many 'days' in a day as I have time to - and it is with great gratitude to Father Mike for making those totally incomprehesible names sound both intelligable and even - almost - interesting!! Father Mike your lessons at the end are insightful, wise and beautiful -I must say it is impressive to find such wisdom in one so young! I still find parts hitting my 'cynacism' button (eg. Lot and his daughters - in general the treatment of women actually) but I am trying really hard not to use a 21st century mind to be nit picky about the real message of God's love for His people. And if He didn't respect women He wouldn't have created us - right? Thanks Father Mike - you and the 'Bible in a Year' community wherever they may be are in my daily prayers. God bless you and keep you.
Very interesting! Thank you Father Mike for your dedication to providing these bible readings to us. Of course, without your explanation I would be lost. I am learning so much.
Thank you so much Fr.Mike and Ascension Presents team
👏👏👏so grateful for this gift!
Thank-you fr.Mike, I pray everyday for you and for the community of the Bible in a Year.
Dio ci benedica sempre!

I am really trying to understand with you
So happy, the Bible makes sense now. Thank you
Thanks Fr Mike
Thank you Father Mike! ✨❤️🙏🏼🌞✨
Thank you Father Mike🙏
I like poetry, but try as I might cannot seem to equate doves to eyes, one piece I read says that doves have no peripheral vision, therefore they only have eyes for each other, I'll take that!
Thanks!
A great introduction to the division of the kingdom and also to the song of Solomon
*Rehoboam could have listened to the elders’ counsel and avoided the fate of getting exiled out of the kingdom. He at least became wiser and did some things right later on as the King of Judah and Benjamin. While Jeroboam defied God for the sake of keeping people from following Rehoboam. His selfishness and greed of the kingdom caused him to create idols, false religion, and thus, sin.
* We must heed the history and the counsel of the wise, especially when it is in alignment with the commandments of God.
*Songs of Solomon - 1. Allegory - Between God and people or Jesus and the Church. 2. Love song between the man and his wife. 3. Foreshadowing of the unity of Jesus and the Church/Kingdom of God. But yes, like Fr. Mike said it's quite awkward to read some verses in front of everyone, but if we consider things as a poem about God's creation as well as love, then it becomes reasonable.
Thank you, Fr. Mike and Team Ascension. God bless you and the fellow listeners.
Lifting everyone up in prayer.
This is the only bible study I am doing, for now. & It's great. Thank you.
In the Douay Rheims, the Song of Solomon is known as the Canticle of Canticles.
Thank you Father Mike, thanks Ascension team for upload all these videos. Would you please also upload the "Introduction to the Divided Kingdom" with Jeff Cavins?
Fr. Mike your Bible in a year programme is very useful and interesting.

Round Two
Please pray for Souls in Purgatory. Go ahead, just take about 30 seconds to help save a soul that maybe is your family member or friend! Go forth and help save! Here is the prayer:
(According to tradition, St. Gertrude the Great was told by Our Lord that each time she piously recited the following prayer, it would release 1,000 souls (or a vast number) from their suffering in purgatory.)
The Prayer of St. Gertrude
Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the masses said throughout the world today, for all the holy souls in purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal church, those in my own home and within my family. Amen.
God would reply to St. Gertrude that He would use whatever was offered to Him for the faithful departed, according to His inclination to show pardon & mercy.
Thank you dear Fr. Mike for reminding us that 1 King tells the story as it is unfolded but 2 Chroniclles tells us from a different perspective and enphasasing what was right or wrong, thank you and God bless.
God Bless you, Father Mike, thank you for the reading! You have changed my life! Milton!
AMEN 🙏 🙏🙏
Catching up. 😇
When Fr. Mike Schmitz mentions looking for wise counsel with people who have lived longer. I thought, not always.. I went back to Job in my head where basically the older and the younger people around him were not giving the best advice in his situation. Can anyone relate? Sometimes certain situations make you feel very isolated for a time because people are not able to help right away, they don't know what to do, or they give very inappropriate input. Turning to God first is the best option and hope that He will lead you to someone with His insight.
Thanks Fr. Mike. I love the Song of Solomon. I love Bible in a Year so much.
God bless
Thank you, Father.
I am so happy I got the timeline so I was able to visually see who, what and when in the divided kingdom, it is confusing otherwise.
🙏❤️
This podcast gives hope for the remnant 📿
The Divided Kingdom:
Rehoboam was King of Judah, 2 tribes in the South.
Jeroboam was King of Israel in the North, 10 tribes.
Jerusalem was in Judah in the South and the people worshipped God in the Temple
Sechem was in Ephraim in the North and the people worshipped false Gods (idols) with false priests.
So explains the sadness of the Protestant revolt. Prayers
Awesome explanation

Interestingly, Rehoboam oppressed the people to make his authority known, but his authority was already being acknowledged by the people because they are petitioning him.
Have a blessed Sunday!

Oh Father Mike you are funny trying to explain the Song of Solomon and the dove eyes. Gosh I can't believe they are again worshipping false Gods. Not saying that that could not happen to me today or anyone in present times. God bless you Father Mike and all in the bible in a year Community,,,,❤️🙏
I am on day 149. I am usually able to find it. Since yesterday I have been having a hard time. HELP
Remove evil
Day 162 is June 10th, according to my calendar
The way to remember Rehoboam vs Jereboam…
Rehoboam = Royal Kingdom

Did Ascension Presents forget to upload Fr. Mike Schmitz and Jeff Cavins “Introduction to the Divided Kingdom”? It should be the podcast right before this episode.
I think it’s still there, but it got changed to “private.”
Why God could not know the rebellious hearts of the people or give them a heart to love God beforehand. The rebellious nature of those people brought much distress to the world at large?
Every one of us is made with a free choice. You decide if you want to be with God or be on your own. We must concéntrate on teaching the young. Later on this will help them.

Is it possible, the last few lines of Psalm 22 are a prophecy of the Church?

So BOTH Rehoboam AND Jeroboam were 'bad' guys?
🙏🏿📿🛐
Would you please upload the "Introduction to the Divided Kingdom" with Jeff Cavins? It doesn't appear to be here. Thanks.

Why did they repeat the same story twice?
Oh man. And so history repeats itself!
Let's distract the people from God!
Movies that show how we shouldn't act however people take them as being okay.
Golden calves.
Build a different church.
Distraction!
Does it sound familiar and applicable to now?
Byrds of a feather flock together…….
Please help, I'm unable to find day 132 & Days 136 through 161 (on utube) any suggestions?
Yes, you'll have to use the podcast only (no text) and get the text from your bible. Those days were not put on CZcams (I'm on 162 today 😊) ❤️
Had Jereboam been an ethnic realist, he would not have been such a coward and fallen into idolatry.
What happened to days 160 and 161? They don't come up
Hello, where can I find Day 161?
@@utubeskreename9516 Thanks!
Thank you for the suggestion
All of a sudden we're past Solomon to Rehoboam? Did I miss something?
We paused at this spot in the Old Testament to do Mark the Messianic checkpoint. Now we are back to where we paused. Hope this helps.
Songs of Solomon. Written by Solomon? Does anyone know. I'm just trying to understand.
I believe so….
It seems like Rehoboam's friends were just a bunch of jock/frat boy idiots.
They were basically telling him yeah he got to show the people whose boss or they'll walk all over him.
I wonder if they thought he's the king so the people have to obey. It's like it never occurred to them that the people could just leave.
Just because something is the law does not mean people will obey that law.
Just because someone's the king doesn't mean people will obey the king.
