Morning:

The house that is to be builded for the LORD

must be exceeding magnifical.

Ye as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house.

Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit

of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him

shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple

ye are. Your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in

you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are

bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in

your spirit, which are God’s. What agreement hath the temple of

God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God

hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will

be their God, and they shall be my people. Ye are built

upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ

himself being the chief corner stone; in whom all the building

fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

in whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God

through the Spirit.

Evening:

He is before all things.

The Amen, the beginning of the creation of God. The

beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he

might have the preeminence.

The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his

works of old. I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning,

or ever the earth was. When he prepared the heavens, I

was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:

when he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the

fountains of the deep: when he gave to the sea his decree, that

the waters should not pass his commandment. I was by him,

as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight,

rejoicing always before him. Yea, before the day was I am

he.

The Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. The author

and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before

him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at

the right hand of the throne of God.
