Daily Light on the Daily Path

Devotional: May 18th

Morning:

As the Father hath life in himself;

so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself.

Our Saviour Jesus Christ hath abolished death, and hath

brought life and immortality to light through the gospel. I am

the resurrection, and the life. Because I live, ye shall live

also. We are made partakers of Christ. Partakers of the Holy

Ghost. Partakers of the divine nature. The first man Adam was

made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening

spirit. Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep,

but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an

eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the

dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and

is to come. Who liveth for ever and ever. The blessed and only

Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; who only hath

immortality. Unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the

only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Evening:

Let us not be desirous of vain glory.

Gideon said unto them, I would desire a request of you, that

ye would give me every man the earrings of his prey. (For they

had golden earrings, because they were Ishmaelites.) And they

answered, We will willingly give them. And they spread a

garment, and did cast therein every man the earrings of his

prey. And Gideon made an ephod thereof, and put it in his

city, even in Ophrah: and all Israel went thither a whoring

after it: which thing became a snare unto Gideon, and to his

house.

Seekest thou great things for thyself? seek them not. Lest

I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the

revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh.

Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in

lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.

Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not;

charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, doth not behave

itself unseemly, seeketh not her own.

Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me.
