Daily Light on the Daily Path

Devotional: August 20th

Morning:

God is not a man, that he should lie;

neither the son of man, that he should repent.

The Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither

shadow of turning. Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day,

and for ever.

His truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of

promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an

oath: that by two immutable things, in which it was impossible

for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have

fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us.

The faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them

that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand

generations. All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth

unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies. Happy is

he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is

in the LORD his God: which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and

all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever.

Numbers 23:19 James 1:17 Hebrews 13:8 Psalms 91:4 Hebrews 6:17-18 Deuteronomy 7:9 Psalms 25:10 Psalms 146:5-6

Evening:

If thou faint in the day of adversity,

thy strength is small.

He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no

might he increaseth strength. My grace is sufficient for thee:

for my strength is made perfect in weakness. He shall call upon

me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I

will deliver him, and honour him. The eternal God is thy

refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall

thrust out the enemy from before thee.

I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and

for comforters, but I found none.

Every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in

things pertaining to God, who can have compassion on the

ignorant, and on them that are out of the way; so also

Christ though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by

the things which he suffered; and being made perfect, he became

the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him.

Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows.
