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 119:27 Make me to understand the Way of Thy precepts: so shall I talk of Thy wondrous works.



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

05.25 Morning:

How great is Thy goodness, which Thou hast laid up for them that fear Thee!


Since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside Thee, what He hath prepared for him that waiteth for Him.―Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love Him. But God hath revealed them unto us by His Spirit.―Thou wilt shew me the path of Life: in Thy presence is fulness of joy; at Thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

How excellent is Thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of Thy wings. They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of Thy house; and Thou shalt make them drink of the River of Thy pleasures. For with Thee is the Fountain of Life: in Thy Light shall we see Light.

Godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the Life that now is, and of that which is to come.

Ps 31:19 Isa 64:4 1Co 2:9,10 Ps 16:11 36:7-9 1Ti 4:8
