Ezra 6 Preface - The apostles, that the poor might not be neglected, recommend, and with the church's consent ordain seven chosen men deacons. The word of God prevaileth.

Acts 6 Daily Light - Morning Let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands. Thy renown went forth among the heathen for thy beauty: for it was perfect through my comeliness, which I had put upon thee, said the Lord GOD. - We all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord. - The spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you. Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways. For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee. - Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established. Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. - Our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace, comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work.

There is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. - The LORD spake unto Moses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend. - Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I comman dyou. Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you. When ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants. Ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. In every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. - The prayer of the upright is his delight.

The 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith Of Saving Faith Chapter 14 PARAGRAPH 3 This faith, although it be in different stages, and may be weak or strong,11 yet it is in the least degree of it different in the kind or nature of it, as is all other saving grace, from the faith and common grace of temporary believers;12 and therefore, though it may be many times assailed and weakened, yet it gets the victory,13 growing up in many to the attainment of a full assurance through Christ,14 who is both the author and finisher of our faith.15 11 Heb. 5:13–14; Matt. 6:30; Rom. 4:19–20 12 2 Pet. 1:1 13 Eph. 6:16; 1 John 5:4–5 14 Heb. 6:11–12; Col. 2:2 15 Heb. 12:2 Robert Murray M'Cheyne - God Makes A Path - Daily Devotional Readings Little fruit! Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. Psalm 2 v 8 Two farmers possessed two fields that lay next each other. The one had rich crops, the other very scanty ones. "How comes it," says the one to the other, "that your field bears so well, and mine so poorly, when my land is as good as yours?" "Why neighbour," said the other, "the reason is this - you only sow your field, but I both sow mine and harrow in the seed." Just so, my dear friends, there is little fruit among Christians, because there is little harrowing in by prayer. I think I could name many Christians among you who do not know one another, and never pray one with another. What wonder there is little fruit!
