Jonathan Bagster's Daily Light on the Daily Path (Daily)
Morning:
By faith Abraham, . . . called to go out into a place
which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed.
He shall choose our inheritance for us.--He led him about, he
instructed him, he kept him as the apple of his eye. 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.
I [am] the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which
leadeth thee by the way [that] thou shouldest go.--Who teacheth
like him?
We walk by faith, not by sight.--Here have we no continuing
city, but we seek one to come.--Dearly beloved, I beseech [you]
as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war
against the soul.--Arise ye, and depart; for this [is] not
[your] rest: because it is polluted, it shall destroy [you],
even with a sore destruction.
Heb 11:8 Ps 47:4 De 32:10-12 Isa 48:17 Job 36:22 2Co 5:7
Heb 13:14 1Pe 2:11 Mic 2:10
Evening:
Give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
The heavens are not clean in his sight. How much more
abominable and filthy [is] man, which drinketh iniquity like
water?--Yea, the stars are not pure in his sight. How much less
man, [that is] a worm?
Who [is] like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who [is]
like thee, glorious in holiness.--Holy, holy, holy, [is] the
LORD of hosts.
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.--Partakers of his holiness.
The temple of God is holy, which [temple] ye are.--What
manner [of persons] ought ye to be in [all] holy conversation
and godliness, . . . without spot, and blameless.
Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but
that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister
grace unto the hearers. And grieve not the holy Spirit of God,
whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
