Devotional: January 4th

Morning:

Ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the

inheritance, which the LORD your God giveth you.

This is not your rest. There remaineth therefore a rest

to the people of God. 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.

In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not

so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and

receive you to myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

With Christ; which is far better.

God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there

shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither

shall there be any more pain: for the former things have passed

away. There the wicked cease from troubling; and there the

weary are at rest.

Lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven. For where your

treasure is, there will your heart be also. Set your affection

on things above, not on things on the earth.

Evening:

O death, where is thy sting?

O grave, where is thy victory?

The sting of death is sin. But now once in the end of the

world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of

himself. And as it is appointed to men once to die, but after

this the judgment: so Christ was once offered to bear the sins

of many; and to them that look for him he shall appear the

second time without sin to salvation.

Since then the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he

also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death

he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the

devil; and deliver them who through fear of death were all their

lifetime subject to bondage.

I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is

at hand. 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.
