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 23:1 The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want.
The Word for the day--
Hebrews 9:24-26
For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into Heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us: nor yet that He should offer Himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others; for then must He often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath He appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.
Hear this morning's devotional [Prepared by Jonathan Bagster (1813-1872)]
07.29 Morning:
Oh that Thou wouldest rend the Heavens, that Thou wouldest come down.
Make haste, my Beloved, and be Thou like to a roe or to a young hart upon the Mountains of spices.―We ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption,
to wit, the redemption of our body.―Bow Thy Heavens, O
Lord, and come down: touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.
This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into Heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen Him go into Heaven.―Unto them that look for Him shall He appear the second time without sin unto Salvation.―It shall be said in that Day, Lo, this
is our God; we have waited for Him, and He will save us: this
is the
Lord; we have waited for Him, we will be glad and rejoice in His Salvation.
He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.―That blessed Hope, . . . the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ.―Our conversation is in Heaven.
