Daily Reading Plan - Second Year
Preface - Job reproveth his friends of false reasoning and partiality: though unable to account for his own afflictions, he professeth his confidence in God: he entreateth to know his sins, and the cause of his affliction.
Job 13
Preface - After saluting the church at Corinth, and thanking God for his grace toward them, Paul exhorteth them to unity, and reproveth their dissensions. The plain doctrine of the gospel however foolish in the eyes of the world, is the power and wisdom of God to the salvation of believers. God, to take away human boasting, hath not called the wise, the mighty, the noble; but the foolish, the weak, the despised among men. Christ is our wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption.
1 Corinthians 1



Daily Light - Morning
The whole bullock shall he carry forth without
the camp unto a clean place, where the ashes are poured
out, and burn him on the wood with fire.

They took Jesus, and led him away. And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha: where they crucified him. - The bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned without the camp. Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate. let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach. - The fellowship of his sufferings.

Rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. - Our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.
Lev. 4.12; Jn. 19.16-18; He. 13.11-13; Phil. 3.10
1 Pe. 4.13; 2 Co. 4.17



Daily Light - Evening
God created man in his own image.

Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.

God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ... We are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. - For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be Conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

We know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. - I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.

He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. - If children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ. 
Ge. 1.27; Ac. 17.29
Eph. 2.4-5,10; Ro. 8.29
1 Jn. 3.2; Ps. 17.15
​Rev. 21.7; Ro. 8.17

Robert Murray M'Cheyne - God Makes A Path - Daily Devotional Readings
Grace sufficient
And he said unto me, 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.
2 Corinthians 12 v 9

When Paul was caught up into paradise he thought he would never again feel his body of sin; but when he was humbled and made to know himself better and to know the grace that is in Christ, then his glory ever after was, the he had a weak body of sin and death, and that there was power enough in Christ to keep him from falling. From that day he gloried not that he had no sin in him, but that he had an almighty Saviour dwelling in him and upholding him. He took pleasure now in every thing that made him feel his weakness; for this drove him to Jesus for strength.
Lear, dear brethren, the true glory of a Christian in this world. The world knows nothing of it. A true Christian has a body of sin. He has every lust and corruption that is in the heart of man of devil. He wants no tendency to sin. If the Lord has given you light, you know and feel this. What is the difference, then, between you and the world? Infinite! You are in the hand of Christ. His Spirit is within you. He is able to keep you from falling.; 'Rejoice in the Lord, ye righteous; and shout for joy all ye that are upright in heart.'
