How to use the verse of the day

Read the verse slowly, twice. Then ask one question: what is God saying to me in this, today? You don’t need a long answer. One line is enough. Some people write the verse on a card and carry it. Some read it out loud before they leave the house. Some text it to a friend in recovery.

If a craving hits later, come back to it. A verse you’ve read in the morning is easier to remember in a hard moment.

Come back tomorrow

The verse changes every day, at midnight on your own clock. To make it easy to find:

  • On iPhone: open this page in Safari, tap the Share button, then tap “Add to Home Screen.”
  • On Android: open this page in Chrome, tap the three-dot menu, then tap “Add to Home screen.”

Then it’s one tap away, like an app. Or sign up below to get the full daily reading by email each morning.

Why a verse a day helps

Recovery happens one day at a time. So does faith. A short word from God at the start of the day is a small habit, but small habits are what get people through the first year. The Twelve Steps ask us to seek God through prayer and meditation. A verse a day is a simple place to start.

Safety first. If you drink heavily every day, stopping suddenly can be dangerous. Talk to a doctor before you quit.

If you’re in crisis, call or text 988. If you’re just starting out, read Start here, or make a 30-day sobriety plan to print.
