Morning:
If ye will not drive out the inhabitants of the land from
before you; . . . those which ye let remain of them shall
be pricks in your eyes, and thorns in your sides, and
shall trouble you in the land in which ye dwell.
Fight the good fight of faith. The weapons of our warfare
are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of
strong holds; casting down imaginations, . . . and bringing into
captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.
Brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according
to the flesh. For if ye live according to the flesh, ye shall
die: but if ye through the Spirit mortify the deeds of the body,
ye shall live.
The flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against
the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that
ye cannot do the things that ye would. I see another law in my
members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me
into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. We are
more than conquerors through him that loved us.
Numbers 33:55 1 Timothy 6:12 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 Romans 8:12-13 Galatians 5:17 Romans 7:23 Romans 8:37
Evening:
If a man shall sin against the LORD,
who shall plead for him?
If any man sinneth, we have an advocate with the Father,
Jesus Christ the righteous: and he is the propitiation for our
sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the
whole world. Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation
through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the
remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
to declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he may
be just, and the justifier of him who believeth in Jesus.
He is gracious to him, and saith, Deliver him from going down
to the pit: I have found a ransom.
What shall we then say to these things? If God is for us,
who can be against us? . . . Who shall lay any thing to the
charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifieth. Who is he
that condemneth? It is Christ that died, or rather, that is
risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also
maketh intercession for us.
1 Samuel 2:25 1 John 2:1-2 Romans 3:25-26 Job 33:24 Romans 8:31 Romans 8:33-34
