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 25:8,9 Good and upright is the Lord: therefore will He teach sinners in the Way. The meek will He guide in Judgment: and the meek will He teach His Way.
The Word for the day--
Matthew 5:5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
Hear this morning's devotional [Prepared by Jonathan Bagster (1813-1872)]
09.01 Morning:
The meek . . . shall increase their joy in the Lord, and the poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.―Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble Himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven.―The ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, . . . is in the sight of God of great price.―Charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up.
Follow after . . . meekness.―Take My yoke upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek and lowly in heart.―He was oppressed, and He was afflicted, yet He opened not His mouth: He is brought as a Lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so He openeth not His mouth.―Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow His steps: Who did no sin, neither was guile found in His mouth: Who, when He was reviled, reviled not again; . . . but committed Himself to Him that judgeth righteously.
