The duty of wives toward their husbands, and of husbands toward their wives, enforced by the example of Christ and his church. Ephesians 5 Daily Light - Morning Call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me. Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God. - LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear. - For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee. Jacob said unto his household.... Let us arise, and go up to Beth-el; and I will make there an altar unto God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me in the way which I went. - Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits. I love the LORD, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications. Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live. The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow. Then called I upon the name of the LORD.

Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. Beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. - Thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth. - Oh that thou wouldest rend the heavens, that thou wouldest come down.... For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, what he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.

The 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith Of God's Decree Chapter 3 PARAGRAPH 2 Although God knoweth whatsoever may or can come to pass, upon all supposed conditions, 5 yet hath He not decreed anything, because He foresaw it as future, or as that which would come to pass upon such conditions. 6 5 Acts 15:18 6 Rom. 9:11,13,16,18 Robert Murray M'Cheyne - God Makes A Path - Daily Devotional Readings Jesus bids us shine Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Matthew 5 v 16 Shine with Christ's light. The moon rises and shines, but not with her own light; she gathers all from the sun; so do you. Shine in such a way that Christ shall have all the glory. They shine brightest who feel most their own darkness, and are most clothed in Christ's brightness. Oh, wherever you go, make it manifest that your light and peace all come from Him; that it is by 'looking unto Jesus' that you shine, and that your holiness all comes from union with Him. Shine in your closet in secret prayer. Ah! let your face shine in secret communion with God. Shine in your family. Shine in your town; that, when you mingle with the crowd, it may be as if an angel shook his wings. Shine in the world. Oh! let your heart's desire and prayer be, that every soul may be saved. Be like Christ Himself, who is not willing that any should perish.
