Today's Devotion (Tuesday, May 21)
Jonathan Bagster's Daily Light on the Daily Path (Daily)
Morning:
My brethren, be strong in the Lord,
and in the power of his might.
My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made
perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory
in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in
necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake:
for when I am weak, then am I strong.--I will go in the strength
of the Lord GOD: I will make mention of thy righteousness,
[even] of thine only.--The gospel of Christ . . . is the
power of God unto salvation.
I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.--
I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh
in me mightily.--We have this treasure in earthen vessels, that
the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
The joy of the LORD is your strength.--Strengthened with all
might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and
longsuffering with joyfulness.
Eph 6:10 2Co 12:9,10 Ps 71:16 Ro 1:16 Php 4:13 Col 1:29
2Co 4:7 Ne 8:10 Col 1:11
Evening:
Jesus Christ our Lord.
JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.--He
humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death
of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and
given him a name which is above every name: that at the name of
Jesus every knee should bow, of [things] in heaven, and [things]
in earth, and [things] under the earth.
Messias . . . which is called Christ.--The LORD hath anointed
me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind
up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives.
The last Adam [was made] a quickening spirit. . . . The first
man [is] of the earth, earthy: the second man [is] the Lord from
heaven.--My Lord and my God.--Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye
say well; for [so] I am. If I then, [your] Lord and Master, have
washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet. For
I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to
you.
