Especially those we have met in the pandemic. (Numbers 6.24-26.) - Pray for the ministry among the children and that they would know Christ from a young age.

Ezekial 2 Preface - David moveth God to take compassion of his sad condition, confessing his sins to have been the cause of it. Psalms 38 Daily Light - Morning The king held out...the golden sceptre... So Esther drew near, and touched the top of the sceptre. It shall come to pass, when he crieth unto me, that I will hear; for I am gracious. We have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. We love him, because he first loved us. Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. - For through him we...have access by one Spirit unto the Father. - We have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him. - Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. Est 5.2; Ex. 22.27 1 Jn. 4.16-19 He. 10.22; Eph. 2.18; Eph. 3.12; He. 4.16 Daily Light - Evening They said... It is manna: for they wist not what is was. Without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh. - The bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world. Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead... If any man eat of this bead, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world... My flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. The children of Israel...gathered, some more, some less... He that gathered much had nothing over, and he that gathered little had no lack... They gathered it ever morning, every man according to his eating. Take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink?... Your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Ex. 16.15; 1 Tim. 3.16; Jn. 6.33 Jn. 6.49,51,55 Ex. 16.17,18,21 Mt. 6.31,32-33 A Puritans Catechism Q 10 - How did God create man? A - God created man, male and female, after his own image, in knowledge, righteousness, and holiness, with dominion over the creatures. The 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith Of the Church Chapter 26 PARAGRAPH 15 In cases of difficulties or differences, either in point of doctrine or administration, wherein either the churches in general are concerned, or any one church, in their peace, union, and edification; or any member or members of any church are injured, in or by any proceedings in censures not agreeable to truth and order: it is according to the mind of Christ, that many churches holding communion together, do, by their messengers, meet to consider, and give their advice in or about that matter in difference, to be reported to all the churches concerned;29 howbeit these messengers assembled, are not intrusted with any church-power properly so called; or with any jurisdiction over the churches themselves, to exercise any censures either over any churches or persons; or to impose their determination on the churches or officers.30 29 Acts 15:2,4,6,22–23,25 30 2 Cor. 1:24; 1 John 4:1 Robert Murray M'Cheyne - God Makes A Path - Daily Devotional Readings Lovest thou me more than these So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yes, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs. John 21 v 15 Take heed what you love. Love what Jesus loved. Love not the world. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. Love not money; it is the root of all evil. Love Jesus. Forgiven much, love much. Love God; He is worthy of all the love. Love the brethren; make them the chosen friends of your soul.
