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 18:3 I will call upon the Lord, Who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.
The Word for the day--
Psalm 9:10 And they that know Thy Name will put their trust in Thee: for Thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek Thee.
Hear this morning's devotional [Prepared by Jonathan Bagster (1813-1872)]
03.15 Morning:
Perfect through sufferings.
My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with Me. And He went a little further, and fell on His face, and prayed, saying, O My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from Me: nevertheless not as I will, but as Thou wilt.--And being in an agony He prayed more earnestly: and His sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.
The sorrows of death compassed Me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon Me: I found trouble and sorrow.--Reproach hath broken My heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.--I looked on My right hand, and beheld, but there was no man that would know Me: refuge failed Me; no man cared for My soul.
He is despised and rejected of men; a Man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from Him; He was despised, and we esteemed Him not.
