Today's Devotion (Friday, Apr 04)

Jonathan Bagster's Daily Light on the Daily Path (Daily)

Morning:

I am the first and the last.

Ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and
that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and
tempest, . . . but ye are come unto mount Sion, . . . to God the
Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, and
to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant.--Jesus the author and
finisher of [our] faith.--We have not an high priest which
cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was
in all points tempted like as [we are, yet] without sin. Let us
therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may
obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the
LORD of hosts; I [am] the first, and I [am] the last; and beside
me [there is] no God.--The mighty God, The everlasting Father,
The Prince of Peace.

[Art] thou not from everlasting, O LORD my God, mine Holy
One?--Who [is] God, save the LORD? and who [is] a rock, save
our God?

Re 1:17 Heb 12:18,22-24 12:2 4:15,16 Isa 44:6 9:6 Hab 1:12
2Sa 22:32


Evening:

Lead me to the rock [that] is higher than I.

Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and
supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known
unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding,
shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then thou knewest
my path.--He knoweth the way that I take: [when] he hath tried
me, I shall come forth as gold.--Lord, thou hast been our
dwelling place in all generations.--Thou hast been a strength to
the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge from
the storm, a shadow from the heat.

Who [is] a rock save our God?--They shall never perish,
neither shall any [man] pluck them out of my hand.--Uphold me
according unto thy word, that I may live: and let me not be
ashamed of my hope.--Which [hope] we have as an anchor of the
soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that
within the veil.
