Daily Light - Morning
Never man spake like this man.

Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever. - The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary. - His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend.

All bare him witness, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth. - He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom. - The sword of the Spirit....is the word of God. - The word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword. - (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.
Jn. 7.46; Ps. 45.2; Isa. 50.4; Song 5.16
Lu. 4.22; Mt. 7.29
Col. 3.16; Eph. 6.17; He. 4.12; 2 Co. 10.4-5



Daily Light - Evening
The triumphing of the wicked is short.

Thou shalt bruise his heel. - This is your hour, and the power of darkness. - As the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil. - Having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: whom resist stedfast in the faith. - Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth. The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming. - The God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. - The devil....was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone....and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
Job 20.5; Ge. 3.15; Lu. 22.53; He. 2.14; Col. 2.15
1 Pe. 5.8-9; Jas. 4.7
​Ps. 37.12-13; Ro. 16.20; Rev. 20.10

Robert Murray M'Cheyne - God Makes A Path - Daily Devotional Readings
For the elect's sake
Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
2 Timothy 2 v 10

I sometimes feel brethren, that I would willingly lie down beneath the sod in the churchyard, and be forgotten and trampled on, if only you were friends of Christ.
