He dieth: Amon succeedeth him. Amon's wicked reign. He is slain by a conspiracy of his servants; the people slay the murderers, and make Josiah king. Amon's acts and burial. 2 Kings 21 Preface - Christ is shewed to be more worthy than Moses: we must be careful therefore not to follow the example of the obstinate and unbelieving Israelites in the wilderness. Hebrews 3 Daily Light - Morning Let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation. Gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. - Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness... Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the word of the Spirit, which is the word of God. He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken it. And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the LORD; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 1 Th. 5.8; 1 Pe. 1.13; Eph. 6.14,16-17 Isa. 25.8-9 He. 11.1 Daily Light - Evening The children of Israel pitched before them like two little flocks of kids; but the Syrians filled the country. Thus saith the LORD, because the Syrians have said, the LORD is God of the hills, but he is not God of the valleys, therefore will I deliver all this great multitude into thine hand, and ye shall know that I am the LORD. And they pitched one over against the other seven days. And so it was, that in the seventh day the battle was joined: and the children of Israel slew of the Syrians an hundred thousand footmen in one day. - Ye are of god, little children, and have overcome them: because great is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee, yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. They shall fight against thee; but they shall not prevail against thee; for I am with thee, saith the LORD, to deliver thee. 1 Ki. 20.27; 1 Ki. 20.28-29; 1 Jn. 4.4 Isa. 41.10 Jer. 1.19 A Puritans Catechism Q 79 - What is the duty of such as are rightly baptised? A. - It is the duty of such as are rightly baptised, to give themselves up to some particular and orderly Church of Jesus Christ, that they may walk in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless. The 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith Of Christ the Mediator Chapter 8 PARAGRAPH 8 To all those for whom Christ has obtained eternal redemption, He does certainly and effectually apply and communicate the same, making intercession for them; 38 uniting them to Himself by His Spirit, revealing to them, in and by His Word, the mystery of salvation, persuading them to believe and obey,39 governing their hearts by His Word and Spirit,40 and overcoming all their enemies by His almighty power and wisdom,41 in such manner and ways as are most consonant to His wonderful and unsearchable dispensation; and all of free and absolute grace, without any condition foreseen in them to procure it.42 38 John 6:37, 10:15–16, 17:9; Rom. 5:10 39 John 17:6; Eph. 1:9; 1 John 5:20 40 Rom. 8:9,14 41 Ps. 110:1; 1 Cor. 15:25–26 42 John 3:8; Eph. 1:8 Robert Murray M'Cheyne - God Makes A Path - Daily Devotional Readings Only believe And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Romans 8 v 28 You remember Jacob said, when they wanted to take Benjamin away from him, 'All these things are against me.' But in a little while he saw that 'all these things were working together for good to him.' In a little while all his lost children were restored to him, and he and his seed preserved from famine. So will it be with you. If at any time unbelief steals over your heart - if you lose sight of Jesus, our Passover sacrificed for us - if you forget the hand of the all-tender gracious Father of Jesus and of your soul - you will be crying out, all these things are against me. But ah! how soon you will find that everything in your history, except sin, has been for you. Every wave of trouble has been wafting you to the sunny shores of a sinless eternity. Only believe. Give unlimited credit to our God.
