Hear this evening's devotional [Prepared by Jonathan Bagster (1813-1872)]
02.24 Evening:
Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?
I know, O Lord, that Thy judgments are right, and that Thou in faithfulness hast afflicted me.--O Lord, Thou art our Father; we are the clay, and Thou our Potter; and we all are the work of Thy hand.--It is the Lord: let Him do what seemeth Him good.
Righteous art Thou, O Lord, when I plead with Thee: yet let me talk with Thee of Thy judgments.
He shall sit as a Refiner and Purifier of silver--Whom the Lord loveth He chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom He receiveth.--It is enough for the disciple that he be as his Master, and the servant as his Lord. If they have called the Master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of His household?--Though He were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which He suffered;
But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when His glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.--These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
Here it is again with the full verses and references
