10.26 Evening:


Take heed to your spirit.

Master, we saw one casting out devils in Thy Name; and we forbad him, because he followeth not with us. And Jesus said unto him, Forbid him not: for he that is not against us is for us.―Lord, wilt Thou that we command fire to come down from Heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did? But He . . . rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of Spirit ye are of.

Eldad and Medad do prophesy in the camp. And Joshua the son of Nun, . . . answered and said, My lord Moses, forbid them. And Moses said unto him, Enviest thou for my sake? would God that all the Lord's people were prophets, and that the Lord would put His Spirit upon them!

The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance.―And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

Mal 2:15 Lu 9:49,50,54,55 Nu 11:27-29 Ga 5:22-26

10.26 Evening:

(Malachi 2:15)And did not He make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit. And wherefore one? That He might seek a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth.

(Luke 9:49,50)And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in Thy Name; and we forbad him, because he followeth not with us. And Jesus said unto him, Forbid him not: for he that is not against us is for us.--(Luke 9:54,55)And when His disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt Thou that we command fire to come down from Heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did? But He turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of Spirit ye are of.

(Numbers 11:27-29)And there ran a young man, and told Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad do prophesy in the camp. And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, one of his young men, answered and said, My lord Moses, forbid them. And Moses said unto him, Enviest thou for my sake? would God that all the Lord's people were prophets, and that the Lord would put His Spirit upon them!

(Galatians 5:22-26)But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no Law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
