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 17:15 As for me, I will behold Thy Face in Righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with Thy likeness.
The Word for the day--
Psalm 105:4 Seek the Lord, and His strength: seek His Face evermore.
Compare Spiritual with Spiritual (1 Corinthians 2:12-14; John 5:39)--
"Seek the Lord, and His strength"

Psalm 138:3 In the day when I cried Thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul.
Psalm 140:7 O God the Lord, the strength of my salvation, Thou hast covered my head in the day of battle.
II Corinthians 12:9-10 And He said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for My strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
II Timothy 2:1Thou therefore, my son,
be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
"seek His Face evermore"
Psalm 17:15 As for me, I will behold Thy Face in Righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with Thy likeness.
II Corinthians 4:6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the Light of the Knowledge of the glory of God in the Face of Jesus Christ.
Again, the Word for the day--Psalm 105:4 Seek the Lord, and His strength: seek His Face evermore.
Hear this morning's devotional [Prepared by Jonathan Bagster (1813-1872)]01.06 Morning:
Let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands.
Thy renown went forth among the heathen for thy beauty: for it
was perfect through my comeliness, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord
God.―We all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory,
even as by the Spirit of the Lord.―The spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you.
Blessed
is every one that feareth the
Lord; that walketh in his ways. For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy
shalt thou
be, and
it shall be well with thee.―Commit thy works unto the
Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established.
Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of
his good pleasure.―Our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given
us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace, comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work.
