Job 31 Preface - Paul saluteth the Corinthians; and blesseth God for the comforts and deliverances given him, not solely for his own sake, but for the comfort and encouragement of others also. He telleth them of a deliverance he had lately had from a great danger is Asia, and expresseth his trust in God's protection for the future through their prayers. He calleth both his own conscience and theirs to witness his sincerity in preaching the gospel; and excuseth his not coming to them, as not proceeding from lightness, but from lenience toward them. 2 Corinthians 1 Daily Light - Morning God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction. Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ. Now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifoled temptations: that the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ. - The Lord stood with me, and strengthened me. Let them that suffer accordin gto the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing as unto a faithful creator. Ge. 41.52; 2 Co. 1.3-5 1 Pe. 1.6-7; 2 Tim. 4.17 1 Pe. 4.19 Daily Light - Evening There remaineth therefore a rest to teh people of God. There the wicked cease from troubling; and there the weary be at rest. There the prisoners rest together; they bear not the voice of the opressor. Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth...they...rest from their labours; and their works do follow them. Our friend Lazarus sleepeth... Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep. We that are in this tabernacle do groad, being burdened. - Ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the asoption, to wit, the redemption of our body. For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope... But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. He. 4.9; Job 3.17-18 Rev. 14.13 Jn. 11.11,13 2 Co. 5.4; Ro. 8.23-24,25 A Puritans Catechism Q 81 - What is required for the worthy receiving of the Lord's Supper? A - It is required of them who would worthily partake of the Lord's Supper, that they examine themselves of their knowledge to discern the Lord's body, of their faith to feed upon him, of their repentance, love, and new obedience; lest, coming unworthily, they eat and drink judment to themselves. Of The Civil Magistrate Chapter 24 PARAGRAPH 2 It is lawful for Christians to accept and execute the office of a magistrate when called thereunto; in the management whereof, as they ought especially to maintain justice and peace,2 according to the wholesome laws of each kingdom and commonwealth, so for that end they may lawfully now, under the New Testament, wage war upon just and necessary occasions.3 2 2 Sam. 23:3; Ps. 82:3–4 3 Luke 3:14 Robert Murray M'Cheyne - God Makes A Path - Daily Devotional Readings Be ready For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. - 2 Timothy 4 v 6 Dear believers, be ready to leave your room for the golden harp, at a minute's warning; be ready to leave your desk for the throne of Jesus - your pen for the palm of victory; be ready to leave the market below, for the street of the new Jerusalem, where the redeemed shall walk. If you were in a sinking ship, you would not cling hard to bags of money - you would sit loose to all, and be ready to swim. This world is like a sinking ship, and those who grasp at its possessions will sink with it. Oh! 'buy as though you possessed not'; for 'the time is short.'
