The LORD is gracious


For all flesh is as grass,
and all the glory of man as the flower of grass.
The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:
but the Word of the Lord endureth for ever.
And this is the Word which by the Gospel is preached unto you.
Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings, as newborn babes,
desire the sincere milk of the Word,
that ye may grow thereby:
if so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious.
(I Peter 1:24-2:3)


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--
Titus 2:11-14 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; looking for that blessed Hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; Who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto Himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.




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

09.26 Morning:


A God of Truth and without iniquity, Just and Right is He.


Him that judgeth righteously.―We must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.―Every one of us shall give account of himself to God.―The soul that sinneth, it shall die.

Awake, O Sword, against My Shepherd, and against the Man that is My Fellow, saith the Lord of hosts: smite the Shepherd.―The Lord hath laid on Him the iniquity of us all.―Mercy and Truth are met together; Righteousness and Peace have kissed each other.―Mercy rejoiceth against judgment.―The wages of sin is death; but the Gift of God is Eternal Life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

A just God and a Saviour; there is none beside Me.―Just, and the Justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.―Justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.
