Evening devotional


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


06.05 Evening:

He knoweth our frame; He remembereth that we are dust.


The Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

I will praise Thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are Thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. My substance was not hid from Thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in Thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.

Have we not all one Father? hath not one God created us?―In Him we live, and move, and have our being.―Like as a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear Him.

He, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity, and destroyed them not: yea, many a time turned He His anger away, and did not stir up all His wrath. For He remembered that they were but flesh; a wind that passeth away, and cometh not again.

Ps 103:14 Ge 2:7 Ps 139:14-16 Mal 2:10 Ac 17:28 Ps 103:13 78:38,39

06.05 Evening:

(Psalm 103:14)For He knoweth our frame; He remembereth that we are dust.


(Genesis 2:7)And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

(Psalm 139:14-16)I will praise Thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are Thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. My substance was not hid from Thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in Thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.

(Malachi 2:10)Have we not all one Father? hath not one God created us? why do we deal treacherously every man against his brother, by profaning the covenant of our fathers?--(Acts 17:28)For in Him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also His offspring.--(Psalm 103:13)Like as a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear Him.

(Psalm 78:38,39)But He, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity, and destroyed them not: yea, many a time turned He His anger away, and did not stir up all His wrath. For He remembered that they were but flesh; a wind that passeth away, and cometh not again.

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 108:4 For Thy mercy is great above the heavens: and Thy Truth reacheth unto the clouds.


The Word for the day--
I Peter 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to His abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a Lively Hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

Here is the entire sentence--

I Peter 1:3-5 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to His abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a Lively Hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an Inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in Heaven for you, who are kept by the power of God through Faith unto Salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

06.05 Morning:

When ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants.


Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of Faith.―What hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?―By grace are ye saved through Faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the Gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

By the grace of God I am what I am: and His grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.―For of Him, and through Him, and to Him, are all things.―All things come of Thee, and of Thine Own have we given Thee.

Enter not into judgment with Thy servant: for in Thy sight shall no man living be justified.

(Luke 17:10)So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that which was our duty to do.

Nay: but by the law of Faith.--(I Corinthians 4:7)For Who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it? --(Ephesians 2:8-10)For by grace are ye saved through Faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the Gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

(I Corinthians 15:10)But by the grace of God I am what I am: and His grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.--(Romans 11:36)For of Him, and through Him, and to Him, are all things: to Whom be glory for ever. Amen.--(I Chronicles 29:14)But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? for all things come of Thee, and of Thine Own have we given Thee.
