06.19 Evening:

Gold tried in the fire.

There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for My sake, and the gospel's, but he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come Eternal Life.

Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you.―Now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: that the trial of your Faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ.

The God of all grace, Who hath called us unto His Eternal Glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.―In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

Re 3:18 Mr 10:29,30 1Pe 4:12 1:6,7 5:10 Joh 16:33

06.19 Evening:

(Revelation 3:18)I counsel thee to buy of Me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

(Mark 10:29,30)And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for My sake, and the gospel's, but he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come Eternal Life.

(I Peter 4:12)Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:--(I Peter 1:6,7)Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: that the trial of your Faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:

(I Peter 5:10)But the God of all grace, Who hath called us unto His Eternal Glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.--(John 16:33)These things I have spoken unto you, that in Me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

Romans 16:27 To God only wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for ever. Amen.

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--
Psalm 68:34 Ascribe ye strength unto God: His excellency is over Israel, and His strength is in the clouds.

06.19 Morning:

Holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord.

Except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God.―There shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth.―There is no spot in thee.

Ye shall be Holy: for I the Lord your God am Holy.―As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance: but as He which hath called you is Holy, so be ye Holy in all manner of conversation; because it is written, Be ye Holy; for I am Holy. And if ye call on the Father, Who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear.―Put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; and be renewed in the spirit of your mind; and . . . put on the New Man, which after God is created in Righteousness and true holiness.―He hath chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be Holy and without blame before Him in love.

(Leviticus 19:2)Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, Ye shall be Holy: for I the Lord your God am Holy.--(I Peter 1:14-17)As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance: but as He which hath called you is Holy, so be ye Holy in all manner of conversation; because it is written, Be ye Holy; for I am Holy. And if ye call on the Father, Who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:--(Ephesians 4:22-24)That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; and be renewed in the spirit of your mind; and that ye put on the New Man, which after God is created in Righteousness and true Holiness.--(Ephesians 1:4)According as He hath chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be Holy and without blame before Him in love:
