Daily Light on the Daily Path

Devotional: October 9th

Morning:

Thou art a God ready to pardon, gracious and merciful.

The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men

count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing

that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

The longsuffering of our Lord is salvation.

For this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus

Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them

which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.

Whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our

learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures

might have hope.

Despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and

longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee

to repentance? Rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn

unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow

to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.

Evening:

The words of the LORD are pure words.

Thy word is very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it.

The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the

commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes. Every

word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their

trust in him. Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee,

and thou be found a liar.

Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin

against thee. I will meditate in thy precepts, and have respect

unto thy ways. Brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever

things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever

things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever

things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if

there be any praise, think on these things. As newborn babes,

desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby.

We are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of

sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in

Christ. Nor handling the word of God deceitfully.
