Morning:
Serving the Lord with all humility of mind.
Whoever will be great among you, let him be your minister;
and whoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant:
even as the Son of man came not to be ministered to, but to
minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
If a man thinketh himself to be something, when he is
nothing, he deceiveth himself. I say, to every man that is
among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought
to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to
every man the measure of faith. When ye shall have done all the
things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable
servants: we have done that which it was our duty to do.
Our rejoicing is this, . . . that in simplicity and godly
sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we
have behaved ourselves in the world We have this treasure in
earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God,
and not from us.
Acts 20:19 Matthew 20:26-28 Galatians 6:3 Romans 12:3 Luke 17:10 2 Corinthians 1:12 2 Corinthians 4:7 2 Corinthians 3:5
Evening:
We have turned every one to his own way.
Noah . . . planted a vineyard: and he drank of the wine, and
was drunk. Abram said to Sarai his wife, . . . Say, I pray
thee, thou art my sister: that it may be well with me for thy
sake. Isaac said to Jacob, . . . Art thou my very son Esau?
And he said, I am. Moses . . . spoke unadvisedly with his
lips. The men took of their provisions, and asked not counsel
at the mouth of the LORD. And Joshua made peace with them.
David did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, and
turned not aside from any thing that he commanded him all the
days of his life, except only in the matter of Uriah the
Hittite.
These all . . . obtained a good report through faith. Being
justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in
Jesus Christ. The LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
Not for your sakes do I this, saith the Lord GOD, be it
known to you: be ashamed and confounded for your own ways.
Isaiah 53:6 Genesis 9:20-21 Genesis 12:11 Genesis 12:13 Genesis 27:21 Genesis 27:24 Psalms 106:32-33 Joshua 9:14-15 1 Kings 15:5 Hebrews 11:39 Romans 3:24 Isaiah 53:6 Ezekiel 36:32
