Hebrews 8 Daily Light - Morning Christ.... loved the church, and gave himself for it; that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word. Walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour. Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. - Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. - Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. - Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost. - Thy word hath quickened me. The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple. The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes. Eph. 5.25-26; Eph. 5.2 1 Pe. 1.23; Jn. 17.17; Jn. 3.5; Titus. 3.5; Ps. 119.50 Ps. 19.7-8 Daily Light - Evening Through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one. Whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it... And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. - There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. - When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven. Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way....let us draw near. Eph. 2.18; Jn. 17.23 Jn. 14.13-14,16-17; Eph. 4.4-6; Lu. 11.2 He. 10.19-20,22 A Puritans Catechism Q 2 - What rule has God given to direct us how we may glorify him? A - The Word of God, which is contained in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments, is the only rule to direct us how we may glorify God and enjoy him. The 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith Of Free Will Chapter 9 PARAGRAPH 3 Man, by his fall into a state of sin, has wholly lost all ability of will to any spiritual good accompanying salvation; 4 so as a natural man, being altogether averse from that good, and dead in sin, 5 is not able by his own strength to convert himself, or to prepare himself thereunto. 6 4 Rom. 5:6, 8:7 5 Eph. 2:1,5 6 Titus 3:3–5; John 6:44 Robert Murray M'Cheyne - God Makes A Path - Daily Devotional Readings The best argument of all Who is this that cometh out of the wilderness like pillars of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, with all powders of the merchant? Song of Solomon 3 v 6 The holiness of the believer is like the most precious perfume. When a holy believer goes through the world, filled with the Spirit, made more than conqueror, the fragrance fills the room, 'tis as if an angel shook his wings.' If the world were full of believers it would be like a bed of spices; but, oh! ow few believers carry much of the odour of heaven along with them? How many you might be the means of saving, if you lived a holy, consistent life - if you were evidently a sacrifice bound upon God's altar? Wives might thus, without the word, win their husbands, when they see your chaste conversation coupled with fear; parents might in this way save their children, when they saw you holy and happy; children have often thus saved their parents. Servants, adorn the doctrine of God your Saviour in all things; let your light shine before men. The poorest can do this as well as the richest, the youngest as well as the oldest. Oh, there is no argument like a holy life.
