Morning:
Surely the LORD is in this place; and I knew it not.
Where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am
I in the midst of them. Lo, I am with you alway, even unto
the end of the world. My presence shall go with thee, and I
will give thee rest.
Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee
from thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there:
if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. Am I a
God at hand, saith the LORD, and not a God afar off? Can any
hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith
the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the LORD.
Behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee;
how much less this house that I have builded? Thus saith the
high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is
Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that
is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the
humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. 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.

Evening:
Keep yourselves from idols.
My son, give me thine heart. Set your affection on things
above, not on things on the earth.
Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their heart,
and put the stumbling block of their iniquity before their face:
should I be enquired of at all by them? Mortify your
members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness,
inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness,
which is idolatry. They that will be rich fall into temptation
and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which
drown men in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is
the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have
erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many
sorrows. But thou, O man of God, flee these things.
If riches increase, set not your heart upon them. My fruit
is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than
choice silver.
Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. The
LORD looketh on the heart.
