Daily Light - Morning
Wash me throughly from mine iniquity.

I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, whereby they have sinned, and whereby they have transgressed against me, - Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, nad ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.

Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. - If the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling he unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh: how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

He saved them for his name's sake, that he might make his mighty power to be known. - Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy mercy, and for thy truth's sake.
Ps. 51.2; Jer. 33.8; Ezek. 36.25
Jn. 3.5; He. 9.13-14
Ps. 106.8; Ps. 115.1



Daily Light - Evening
Fellowship in the gospel.

As the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.

God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord. - That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

If we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. - These words spake Jesus.... Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; that they all may be one; as thou, Farther, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us.
Phil. 1.5; 1 Co. 12.12-13
1 Co. 1.9; 1 Jn. 1.3
​1 Jn. 1.7; Jn. 17.1,20-21

​A Puritans Catechism
Q 26 - Wherein did Christ's humiliation consist?
A - Christ's humiliation consisted in his being born, and that in a low condition, made under the law, undergoing the miseries of this life, the wrath of God, and the cursed death of the cross, in being buried, and continuing under the power of death for a time.



The 1689
Baptist Confession of Faith
Of Good Works
Chapter 16
PARAGRAPH 4
​
They who in their obedience attain to the greatest height which is possible in this life, are so far from being able to supererogate, and to do more than God requires, as that they fall short of much which in duty they are bound to do.  (13)
(13)-Job 9.2-3; Gal. 5.17; Luke 17.10

Robert Murray M'Cheyne - God Makes A Path - Daily Devotional Readings
Learn to stoop low
Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.
Romans 14 v 1
We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
Romans 15 v 1
​
There is much of an opposite spirit, I fear, amongst us. I fear that you love our Marys and Pauls and Johns, you highly esteem those that are evidently pillars. But can you condescend to mean of low estate? Learn to stoop low, and to be gentle and kind to the feeble. Do not speak evil of them, do not make their blemishes the subject of your common talk. Cover their faults. Assist them by counsel, and pray for them.
