Morning:
Hope maketh not ashamed.
I am the LORD: . . . they shall not be ashamed that wait
for me. Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and
whose hope the LORD is. Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace,
whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.
Trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in the LORD GOD is
everlasting strength. My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my
expectation is from him. He only is my rock and my
salvation: he is my defence; I shall not be moved. I am not
ashamed: for I know whom I have believed.
God, willing more abundantly to show to the heirs of promise
the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath: that
by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to
lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for
refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: which hope we
have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and
which entereth into that within the veil where the forerunner
hath for us entered, even Jesus.
Romans 5:5 Isaiah 49:23 Jeremiah 17:7 Isaiah 26:3-4 Psalms 62:5-6 2 Timothy 1:12 Hebrews 6:17-20
Evening:
The offence of the cross ceased.
If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and
take up his cross, and follow me.
Know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with
God? whoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the
enemy of God. We must through much tribulation enter into the
kingdom of God.
Whoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. To you
therefore who believe he is precious: but to them who are
disobedient, the stone which the builders rejected, the same is
made the head of the corner, And a stone of stumbling, and a
rock of offence.
May it never be that I should glory, except in the cross of
our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me, and
I to the world. I am crucified with Christ. They that are
Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny
him, he also will deny us.
