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--
Proverbs 20:28 Mercy and truth preserve the King: and His throne is upholden by mercy.
Compare Spiritual with Spiritual (1 Corinthians 2:12-14; John 5:39)--
"the King"
John 19:14 And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he [Pilate] saith unto the Jews, Behold your King! . . .John 19:19 And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.
I Timothy 6:13-16 I give thee charge in the sight of God, Who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, Who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession; that thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ: Which in His times He shall shew, Who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the Light which no man can approach unto; Whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to Whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.
"His Throne is upholden by mercy."
Psalm 89:14 Justice and judgment are the habitation of Thy Throne: mercy and truth shall go before Thy Face.
Isaiah 16:5 And in mercy shall the Throne be established: and He shall sit upon it in truth in the tabernacle of David, judging, and seeking judgment, and hasting righteousness.
Exodus 25:22 And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubims which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel.
Hebrews 4:14-16 Seeing then that we have a Great High Priest, that is passed into the Heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the Throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
Again, the Word for the day--Proverbs 20:28 Mercy and truth preserve the King: and His throne is upholden by mercy.
Hear this morning's devotional [Prepared by Jonathan Bagster (1813-1872)]
06.18 Morning:
The Way into the Holiest of all was not yet made manifest.―Jesus, when He had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom.
Having . . . brethren, boldness to enter into the Holiest by the blood of Jesus, by a New and Living Way, which He hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, His flesh; . . . let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of Faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.―Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation [mercy seat] through Faith in His blood, to declare His Righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God.―Through Him we both have access by One Spirit unto the Father.
Ex 25:21,22 Heb 9:8 Mt 27:50,51 Heb 10:19,20,22 4:16 Ro 3:24,25 Eph 2:18
