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 108:4 For Thy mercy is great above the heavens: and Thy Truth reacheth unto the clouds.
The Word for the day--
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.
Compare Spiritual with Spiritual (1 Corinthians 2:12-14; John 5:39)--
"Jesus saith unto him, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me."
I Corinthians 12:31 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent Way. . . .I Corinthians 14:1 Follow after Charity [1Jn 4:16 "Love"], and desire Spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy.
Psalm 108:4 For Thy mercy is great above the Heavens: and Thy Truth reacheth unto the clouds.
John 17:17 Sanctify them through Thy Truth: Thy Word is Truth [cp. Rev.19:11-13].
Colossians 3:1-4 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your Life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, Who is our Life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with Him in glory.
I Peter 3:18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the Just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:
Again, the Word for the day--John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.

The house that is to be builded for the Lord must be exceeding magnifical, of fame and of glory throughout all countries.―The glory of the Lord . . . filled the Lord's house.
