The LORD is gracious




The LORD is gracious,
and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.
(Psalm 145:8)


The Word for the YEAR--
Romans 8:35-39 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, For Thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.


The Word for the month--
Psalm 18:1-2 I will love Thee, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my Rock, and my Fortress, and my Deliverer; my God, my strength, in Whom I will trust; my Buckler, and the Horn of my salvation, and my high Tower.


The Word for the day--
I John 4:10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.




Hear this morning's devotional [Prepared by Jonathan Bagster (1813-1872)]

02.01 Morning:

Whom having not seen, ye love.


We walk by Faith, not by sight:--We love Him, because He first loved us.--We have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.--Whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the Word of Truth, the gospel of your salvation: in Whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise,--God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this Mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:

If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God Whom he hath not seen?

Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen Me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.--Blessed are all they that put their trust in Him.

1Pe 1:8 2Co 5:7 1Jo 4:19,16 Eph 1:13 Col 1:27 1Jo 4:20 Joh 20:29 Ps 2:12
