05.21 Evening:

Jesus Christ our Lord.

JESUS: for He shall save His people from their sins.―He humbled Himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him, and given Him a Name which is above every name: that at the Name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in Heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth.

Messias . . . which is called Christ.―The Lord hath anointed Me to preach good tidings unto the meek; He hath sent Me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives.

The last Adam was made a quickening Spirit. . . . The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second Man is the Lord from Heaven.―My Lord and my God.―Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet. For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.

(John 4:25)The woman saith unto Him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when He is come, He will tell us all things.--(Isaiah 61:1)The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me; because the Lord hath anointed Me to preach good tidings unto the meek; He hath sent Me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;

(I Corinthians 15:45)And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening Spirit.--(I Corinthians 15:47)The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second Man is the Lord from Heaven.--(John 20:28)And Thomas answered and said unto Him, My Lord and my God.

(John 13:13-15)Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet. For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.

The Lord is gracious

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 107:8,9 Oh that men would praise the Lord for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the children of men! For He satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.


The Word for the day--
Psalm 119:88 Quicken me after Thy lovingkindness; so shall I keep the testimony of Thy mouth.

05.21 Morning:

My brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might.

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.―I will go in the strength of the Lord God: I will make mention of Thy Righteousness, even of Thine only.―The gospel of Christ: . . . is the power of God unto salvation.

I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.―I also labour, striving according to His working, which worketh in me mightily.―We have this Treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.

The joy of the Lord is your strength.―Strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness.

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.--(Psalm 71:16)I will go in the strength of the Lord God: I will make mention of Thy Righteousness, even of Thine only.--(Romans 1:16)For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

(Philippians 4:13)I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.--(Colossians 1:29)Whereunto I also labour, striving according to His working, which worketh in me mightily.--(II Corinthians 4:7)But we have this Treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
