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

05.17 Evening:

I have exalted One chosen out of the people.

Verily He took not on him the nature of angels; but He took on Him the seed of Abraham. Wherefore in all things it behoved Him to be made like unto His brethren.―Upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as the appearance of a Man above upon it.―The Son of man which is in Heaven.―Behold My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself: handle Me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see Me have.

[He] made Himself of no reputation, and took upon Him the form of a Servant, and was made in the likeness of men: and being found in fashion as a Man, He humbled Himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him, and given Him a Name which is above every name: that at the Name of Jesus every knee should bow.―Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.

Ps 89:19 Heb 2:16,17 Eze 1:26 Joh 3:13 Lu 24:39 Php 2:7-10 Re 3:2
