Praise God for the opportunity for the Bible Reading Marathon at Federal Mall outside New Parliament House location in Canberra, ACT for a Citywide Christian Multicultural Initiative.
In the completed Bible Reading for 2023, Christians prayed blessings for the city and nation including Bible Reading for 79 hours. This year it will be from 7am on Thursday 8th February to 3pm on Sunday 11th February 2024, reading aloud the Scriptures continuously day and night in front of New Parliament House to the side on the grass near the Ceremonial Stone, Please pray for this final land permission to be granted as soon as possible.
The plan is for there to be 26 site Captains (Watchmen) oversighting 3 hour time blocks. We ask each Watchman leader to gather between 4-12 Christians to read the Bible for 15 minutes each in their time blocks, and also to consider doing another 3 hour time block if possible on a different day and time.

While in previous years there were 2 locations, in 2025, there will be just the one location outside Federal Parliament House, Canberra
This will be a low key event with no amplification. Believers who have registered will be coming and going, arriving 15 minutes before their time slot. It is expected that there would be approximately between 4- 8 people or less at any time. At each site there will be 2 portable gazebos/ sun shade shelters 3m by 3m, 2 folding tables and 4 folding chairs. People will be bringing their own water bottles and removing any personal rubbish etc. (NB This is not part of the Multicultural Festival Organization or foot print.) but it is a multicultural Christian initiative in its 10th year, operating across the denominations in a response to bless our city and nation through the unity of the Holy Spirit, as we read God’s living Word cover to cover, one believer after another, reading from one Bible; NKJV large print version.
Bible Breakthrough
79 hour Bible Reading Marathon prior to the National Day of Prayer & Fasting
Thursday 6 February – Sunday 9 February 2025 The Bible Breakthrough is a continuous 79 hour Bible Reading Marathon that has been organized outside Australian Parliaments in the State Capitals of Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and including Parliament House in Canberra. In future years it is envisioned that this will take place where possible in all State Capitals and outside public buildings and council chambers in cities and regional towns. There are 9 Parliamentary Offices and 564 Councils’ in Australia. It takes 79 hours and 40 minutes to read the bible through out loud. The vision of the Bible Breakthrough is to find 288 Christians in each location who will read the scriptures for 15 Minute slot during the 79 hour period. It takes just under 79 hours to read the Bible through from beginning to the end.
The Bible Breakthrough – Bible Reading Marathon’s goal is to follow the words of Paul the Apostle who encouraged the believers in 1Timothy 4:13 to “devote themselves to the public reading of scripture.” The word of God is powerful and the reading of scriptures in strategic public places is a form of prayerful declaration that Australia will find its DESTINY in Christ the Living Word. John 1:1
The 79 hour Bible Marathon will finish at 3pm on Sunday 9 February 2025 which is expected to be in the Federal Parliament’s first sitting in 2025 prior to the next General Election.
Through the Bible Breakthrough – Bible Reading Marathon, it is hoped that people will be interested to attend a church near them to hear more about the Good News of God’s love through Jesus Christ, which is the central message of the Scriptures. Our prayer is that through the Bible Breakthrough – Bible Reading Marathon many people will find their DESTINY in Christ the Living Word and that Christians will discover again the power of the Bible.
Bible Breakthrough Bible Reading Marathon 6-9 February 2025 is a pre-Event of the National Day of Prayer and Fasting expected to be held in early June in 2025 on a Saturday 9am-6pm in all States and Territories in Australia – see australiaprays.com.au for information.
