Thanks Father, this was so uplifting for me today to know you and someone out there is praying for me. I am in tears right now to know that there is many good people out there and just this dumb wars where so many people are dying for no reason, and all the violence in our cities.
Father, may everything that I do this day, whether it be full of joy or pain, whether it be full of love or of grief, I ask that everything I go through today be offered to you just like Jesus offered everything to you. It is in his name we pray. Amen. 9/28/2024
Day 272 - The call of Nehemiah Saturday September 28th, 2024 Thank goodness for Father Mike Schmitz and Ascension Press / Presents for given us The opportunity to listen to this amazing podcast ( The Bible in a year podcast ). Today’s readings are Nehemiah 1-2, Zechariah 12-13, and Proverbs 20:20-22. My Lord and my God. My Lord and my God. My Lord and my God. Praise The Lord O My Soul. Praise The Lord O My Soul. Praise The Lord O My Soul. Deo gratias 🙏♥😇👌
I started this year only listening and glancing up at the Word. Next year, I plan to see and speak along with the Word and Fr Mike. The following year, I am thinking I might be ready to take pen and paper and start making notes. I know I am starting late. Let’s keep going! Shall we?
Dear Fr Mike. In reading Nehemiah I feel so much a part of it. I have been to the Holy Land to Jerusalem. Reading this book I feel like I am there working along side them if only to bring water to the thirsty workers. Thank you for bringing the Bible to life. I look forward to each day. God Bess you Fr. Mike for this ministry which reaches so many. 🙏🏻✝️
4/17/23 This was the third time today that I've heard of Gods love in my isolation and loneliness. Thank you Heavenly Father for using Fr Mikes words to speak to me 😢
God bless you Fr Mike, you bring these passages of scripture alive, the enthusiasm in your voice comes across, you sound as if you are having a ball in that booth ! It is so infectious, lets get infected with the word of God and spread the germs of truth and joy, go sneeze on someone today ! ( disclaimer. metaphorically speaking, just sayin') Jesus loves me this I know, for the bible tells me so. Have a good day all.
The BIG ASK. Please pray for those who were impacted by hurricane Ian. That struck SW Florida yesterday. Many people are hurting, injured and have died. Even if it's many years later, a disaster like this lasts a long time. Pray for God to deliver their needs in his timeframe. As always, lifted by Dawn M's mantle, to pray for the souls in Purgatory. Thank you. 9/29/2022.
@@brianmelville520 I know, 2 years later we have Helene. Pray for the souls who have died in this storm as well as those lives have been impacted with their homes and property destroyed. 9/28/2024
Thank you dear Lord for another awe inspiring night with Fr Mike. Lord help us to be obedient to your every words to be worthy of your love, forgiveness and all your blessings. We are your unworthy servants. Amen.
September 29, 2023 Round Two Please pray with me. 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: Eternal Father, I offer You 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, for those in my own home, and in my family. Amen.
Thank you Father Mike for sharing the Bible with all of us. It is a true Blessing to read, hear and understand the words of our God. Praying for Father Mike and anyone who is in need of prayers.
Heart wrenching, amazing, beautiful prophecy about Jesus. My heart is full of love and my faith grows each day when you read and review Gods words. Thank you Father Mike.
September 30, 2023 Round Two Please pray with me. 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: Eternal Father, I offer You 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, for those in my own home, and in my family. Amen. In her account of another vision, St. Faustina describes Purgatory as a "great crowd of suffering souls" undergoing purification. Further, she says that the souls are "praying fervently, but to no avail, for themselves; only we can come to their aid" (Diary, 20) Father I need your grace again because I am not the witness I want to be.
It is incredible how Nehemiah loves the Lord. Lord grant me that faith of your servant Nehemiah and the clarity of his message to change us and our leaders in the world and in the Church.
Thank you Fr Mike. "Hail Mary, full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus. Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death, Amen" My beautiful sweet Jesus, my eternal love, please bless Fr Mike and keep him safe.
I just heard you say you "know who "your enemies are. I can't imagine you have enemies! I will add this to my prayer for you today at the end of this lesson. Thank you for the great lessons you give.
Thank you fr.Mike .you bring a lot of blessings to millions of families with your Bible class online. Wonderful explanation and easy to enjoy Gods word 🙏. May God continue to protect you mightily
September 30, 2023 Have you ever considered listening to Saint Faustina’s Diary in a year and/or EWTN Mother Angelica’s Classics to add to your Catholic learning? Oh my goodness so much life guidance in conjunction with Father Mike’s Bible and Catechism in a Year!
This was really awesome tonight I really understood a lot thank you everyone God bless you tonight and sleep well and thank you Father Mike for reading all this and then explaining it afterwards that's what's so incredible and that helps so much good night and God bless
“Why, one will hardly die for a righteous man-though perhaps for a good man one will dare even to die. But God shows his love for us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.” Romans 5:7-8
Thank you Fr Mike. I pray for you and thank God for allowing our lives to cross. About a year ago, I stumbled across the Hallow app where I first heard your name and began listening to Bible in a Year. Your readings and insights have made God’s words and the Bible make sense and have relevance in my life for the first time. God bless you.
Wow. Was searching for another episode and just stumbled on this one instead. Literally on THE BEST episodes. The reading, the PRAYER (writing it down for one of my regular morning prayers), the commentary and exhortation. Thank you.
Thank you Father Mike for encouragement. I would like to recommend the book, "Marriage on the Mend" by Clint & Penny Bragg who were divorced for over a decade due to adultery. With the book of Nehemiah for inspiration, they rebuilt the walls of protection around the ruins of their marriage and were reconciled in a beautiful way.

I thoroughly appreciate how you, Fr. Mike, are 'piecing together' the various pieces of the Bible's puzzle- interlocking the old testament with the new. I feel like we are finally able to see the 'picture' on the 'puzzle box' in such a logical view.
You're so right Father Mike! BIAY community, we are all connected in prayer💞Love your commentary, new insights and also reminders as they apply to current situations💞💞You are a blessing!! Praying for you and everyone. Thank you. God bless🙏💞
Thank you so much father Mike for revealing the truth from the book of Nehemiah and Zachariah. Dear God, please help me be gentle and kind to the people who are closest to me. Help me grow to be even more faithful to you. So much truth in the book of Proverbs especially about a short-lived but here it is. It’s a beautiful example of leader ship.
How beautiful is when I am with God every day when I pray the Virgen de Guadalupe. Is really a intense moment with myself and my religion. Thanks God🙏🙏🙏
