Post-o-Matic 3.16† 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2009 Morning Now may the God of peace . . . equip you with everything good that you may do his will. Finally, brothers, rejoice. Aim for restoration, comfort one another, agree with one another, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you. By grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.—Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change. Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure.—Be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.—Filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

Evening “I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak tenderly to her.” “Therefore go out from their midst, and be separate from them, says the Lord, and touch no unclean thing; then I will welcome you, and I will be a father to you, and you shall be sons and daughters to me, says the Lord Almighty.”—Since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit, bringing holiness to completion in the fear of God.—Jesus also suffered outside the gate in order to sanctify the people through his own blood. Therefore let us go to him outside the camp and bear the reproach he endured. [Jesus] said to them, “Come away by yourselves to a desolate place and rest a while.”—The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Hos. 2:14; 2 Cor. 6:17, 18; 2 Cor. 7:1; Heb. 13:12, 13; Mark 6:31; Ps. 23:1-3 (Read full verses...) << Aug 14 | Aug 15 | Aug 16 >> Excerpted from Daily Light on the Daily Path ©2002 Crossway Books, a publishing ministry of Good News Publishers.
