Devotional: May 10th

Morning:

For this purpose the Son of God was manifested,

that he might destroy the works of the devil.

We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against

principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the

darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high

places. Forasmuch as 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 having spoiled principalities

and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them.

I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation,

and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his

Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which

accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him

by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony;

and they loved not their lives unto the death.

Thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through

our Lord Jesus Christ.

Evening:

Vanity of vanities; all is vanity.

We spend our years as a tale that is told. The days of our

years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of

strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength

labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.

If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all

men most miserable. Here have we no continuing city, but we

seek one to come. I am the LORD, I change not. Our

conversation citizenship is in heaven; from whence also we

look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: who shall change

our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious

body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue

all things unto himself. The creature was made subject to

vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected

the same in hope.

Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.

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

to come.
