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--
Matthew 22:37,38 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment.
Compare Spiritual with Spiritual (1 Corinthians 2:12-14; John 5:39)--
"Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment."
Romans 5:5 And Hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.
Ephesians 3:14-20 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, of Whom the whole family in Heaven and earth is Named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might by His Spirit in the inner man; that Christ may dwell in your hearts by Faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in Love, may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God. Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the Power that worketh in us, . . .
II Thessalonians 3:5 And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.
Isaiah 26:12 Lord, Thou wilt ordain Peace for us: for Thou also hast wrought all our works in us.
"the first and great commandment"
Psalm 33:8-11 Let all the earth fear the Lord: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him. For He spake, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast. The Lord bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: He maketh the devices of the people of none effect. The counsel of the Lord standeth for ever, the thoughts of His heart to all generations.
II Corinthians 4:6 For God, Who commanded the Light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the Light of the Knowledge of the glory of God in the Face of Jesus Christ.
Isaiah 26:12 Lord, Thou wilt ordain Peace for us: for Thou also hast wrought all our works in us.
Again, the Word for the day--Matthew 22:37,38 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment.
Hear this morning's devotional [Prepared by Jonathan Bagster (1813-1872)]
02.05 Morning:
In the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.--She took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
The wages of sin is death; but the Gift of God is Eternal Life through Jesus Christ our Lord.--If by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the Gift of Righteousness shall reign in Life by One, Jesus Christ.--Since by man came death, by Man came also the Resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.--Our Saviour Jesus Christ, Who hath abolished death, and hath brought Life and Immortality to Light through the gospel.
God hath given to us Eternal Life, and this Life is in His Son. He that hath the Son hath Life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not Life.--For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved.
Here it is again with the entire verses and references
02.05 Morning:
I am come that they might have Life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
(Genesis 2:17)But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.--(Genesis 3:6)And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
(Romans 6:23)For the wages of sin is death; but the Gift of God is Eternal Life through Jesus Christ our Lord.--(Romans 5:17)For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the Gift of Righteousness shall reign in Life by One, Jesus Christ.)--(I Corinthians 15:21,22)For since by man came death, by Man came also the Resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.--(II Timothy 1:10)But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, Who hath abolished death, and hath brought Life and Immortality to Light through the gospel:
(I John 5:11,12)And this is the record, that God hath given to us Eternal Life, and this Life is in His Son. He that hath the Son hath Life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not Life.--(John 3:17)For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved.
Philippians 4:8b " . . . think on these things"

Blessed be the Lord God, the God of Israel, Who only doeth wondrous things. And blessed be His Glorious Name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with His glory; Amen, and Amen.
