Daily Reading
Preface - The judgments of God upon the Jews for their universal depravity and incorrigibleness; for their adultery; their blasphemous impiety; their worship of strange gods; their injustice and oppression for want of fearing the true God; and their prevarication in religion.
Jeremiah 5
Preface - Christ healeth the sick in Judaea: answereth the question of the Pharisees concerning divorce, and the objection of his disciples to the expediency of marriage: receiveth little children with tenderness: instructeth a young man how to attain eternal life, and how to become perfect: showeth how hard it is for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God: and promiseth great rewards to his disciples, and to all who have forsaken ought to follow him.
Matthew 19


Daily Light - Morning
I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee,
and I will clothe thee with change of raiment.


Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. - We are all as an unclean thing. - I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.

As many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. - Ye have put off the old man with his deeds; and have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him. - Not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but...the righteousness which is of God by faith.

Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him. - The fine linen is the righteousness of saints. - I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness.
Zech. 3.4; Ps. 32.1; Isa. 64.6; Ro. 7.18
Ga. 3.27; Col. 3.9-10; Phil. 3.9
Lu. 15.22; Rev. 19.8; Isa. 61.10



Daily Light - Evening
The day shall declare it.


Judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.

Why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ... So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God. Let us not therefore judge one another any more.

God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ. - The Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son...and hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.

The Great, the Mighty God, the LORD of hosts, is his name, great in counsel, and mighty in work: for thine eyes are open upon all the ways of the sons of men: to give every one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.
1 Co. 3.13; 1 Co. 4.5
Ro. 14.10,12-13
Ro. 2.16; Jn. 5.22,27
Jer. 32.18-19

The 1689
Baptist Confession of Faith
Of the Assurance of Grace and Salvation
Chapter 18
PARAGRAPH 1
​
  1. Although temporary believers, and other unregenerate men, may vainly deceive themselves with false hopes and carnal presumptions of being in the favour of God and state of salvation, which hope of theirs shall perish; yet such as truly believe in the Lord Jesus, and love him in sincerity, endeavouring to walk in all good conscience before him, may in this life be certainly assured that they are in the state of grace, and may rejoice in the hope of the glory of God, which hope shall never make them ashamed.
    1. Job 8:13,14 
    2. Matthew 7:22,23 
    3. 1 John 2:3 
    4. 1 John 3:14,18,19,21,24 
    5. 1 John 5:13 
    6. Romans 5:2,



Robert Murray M'Cheyne - God Makes A Path - Daily Devotional Readings
The father's gift
I the Lord have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles;
Isaiah 42 v 6


God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whosoever believeth on him should not perish.' 'Herein is love; not that we loved God.' God not only provided the Saviour, and upheld Him, but He gave Him - gave Him away, to be a covenant Saviour of the people, and a light to lighten the Gentiles. When Abraham bound his son Isaac upon the altar and lifted up the knife to strike, this was giving away his son at the command of God, This is just what God did. He took His son out of His bosom, and gave Him away to be bound, to be a covenant Saviour of the people. There are not more wonderful words in the whole Bible than these: 'I will give thee.' 'God spared not his own Son, but freely delivered him up to the death for us all.' The Son was infinitely dear to the Father. God cannot but love that which is perfectly holy and beautiful. Now, such was Christ. From all eternity there had been the outgoings of love and infinite admiration from the bosom of the Father towards His well-beloved Son. Canst thou part with me? Canst thou give me up to the garden and the cross? 'I will give thee.' Sinners were infinitely vile in the sight of the Father. God cannot but hate that which is enmity and rebellion to Himself. 'He is of purer eyes than to behold iniquity.' How loathsome and hateful this world must have been in His eyes, where every heart was enmity against him! Canst thou give me up for such sinners, for the sake of such vile worms? 'Yes, I will give thee.'
