Morning:
To him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward.
After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and
reckoneth with them. And so he that had received five talents
came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou
deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside
them five talents more. His lord said unto him, Well done,
thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a
few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou
into the joy of thy lord.
We must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that
every one may receive the things done in his body, according
to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I
have kept the faith: henceforth there is laid up for me a crown
of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall
give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also
that love his appearing.
Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that
no man take thy crown.

Evening:
God is faithful.
God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of
man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do
it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? The
Lord sware and will not repent.
od, willing more abundantly to shew unto 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. Wherefore let
them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping
of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful
Creator.
I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able
to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.
Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it. All
the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the
glory of God by us.
