Evening devotional


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


09.06 Evening:


Watchman, what of the night?


It is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of Light.

Learn a parable of the fig tree; when his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: so likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. . . Heaven and earth shall pass away, but My Words shall not pass away.

I wait for the Lord, my soul doth wait, and in His Word do I hope. My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.

He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

Watch . . ., for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

Isa 21:11 Ro 13:11,12 Mt 24:32,33,35 Ps 130:5,6 Re 22:20 Mt 25:13
