08.01 Evening:

The Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.

Like as a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear Him.―The Lord is gracious and full of compassion. He hath given meat unto them that fear Him: He will ever be mindful of His covenant.

He that keepeth thee will not slumber. Behold, He that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.―As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings: so the Lord alone did lead him, and there was no strange god with him.

His compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is Thy faithfulness.

Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and He healed their sick.―The same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.

The very hairs of your head are all numbered.―Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. . . . Fear ye not therefore.

Jas 5:11 Ps 103:13 111:4,5 121:3,4 De 32:11,12 La 3:22,23 Mt 14:14 Heb 13:8 Mt 10:30,29,31

The Lord is gracious,

(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 day--
Psalm 141:1,2 A Psalm of David.
Lord, I cry unto Thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto Thee. Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.

08.01 Morning:
The fruit of the Spirit is . . . Faith.

By grace are ye saved through Faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the Gift of God.―Without Faith it is impossible to please Him.―He that believeth on Him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the Name of the only begotten Son of God.―Lord, I believe; help Thou mine unbelief.

Whoso keepeth His Word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in Him.―Faith which worketh by love.―Faith without works is dead?

We walk by Faith, not by sight.―I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the Life which I now live in the flesh I live by the Faith of the Son of God, Who loved me, and gave Himself for me.―Whom having not seen, ye love; in Whom, though now ye see Him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: receiving the end of your Faith, even the salvation of your souls.

Ga 5:22 Eph 2:8 Heb 11:6 Joh 3:18 Mr 9:24 1Jo 2:5 Ga 5:6 Jas 2:20 2Co 5:7 Ga 2:20 1Pe 1:8,9

Psalm 25

Psalm 25
A Psalm of David.
 

Unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul. O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me. Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause. Shew me thy ways, O Lord; teach me thy paths. Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day. Remember, O Lord, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old. Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness' sake, O Lord.

Good and upright is the Lord: therefore will he teach sinners in the way. The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way. All the paths of the Lord are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies. For thy name's sake, O Lord, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great. What man is he that feareth the Lord? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose. His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth. The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.

Mine eyes are ever toward the Lord; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net. Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted. The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses. Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins. Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred. O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee. Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee. Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
