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 107:8,9 Oh that men would praise the Lord for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the children of men! For He satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.


The Word for the day--
Psalm 104:24 O Lord, how manifold are Thy works! in Wisdom hast Thou made them all: the earth is full of Thy riches.




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

05.05 Morning:

Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? . . . for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.


O fear the Lord, ye His saints: for there is no want to them that fear Him. The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing.―No good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly. O Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in Thee.

I would have you without carefulness.―Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.―Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?―Have faith in God.

Mt 6:31,32 Ps 34:9,10 84:11,12 1Co 7:32 Php 4:6 Mt 10:29-31 Mr 4:40 11:22
