Post-o-Matic 3.16† 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2009 Morning In Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them. In him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of his cross.—Steadfast love and faithfulness meet; righteousness and peace kiss each other. “I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for wholeness and not for evil.”—“Come now, let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool.” Who is a God like you, pardoning iniquity?—“Agree with God, and be at peace.”—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.—O LORD, you will ordain peace for us; you have done for us all our works. 2 Cor. 5:19; Col. 1:19, 20; Ps. 85:10; Jer. 29:11; Isa. 1:18; Mic. 7:18; Job 22:21; Phil. 2:12, 13; Isa. 26:12 (Read full verses...) Evening “Your kingdom come.” “In the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that shall never be destroyed, nor shall the kingdom be left to another people. It shall break in pieces all these kingdoms and bring them to an end, and it shall stand forever.”—“A stone was cut out by no human hand.”—“Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the LORD of hosts.”—“The kingdom of God is not coming with signs to be observed, nor will they say, ‘Look, here it is!’ or ‘There!’ for behold, the kingdom of God is in the midst of you.” “To you has been given the secret of the kingdom of God. . . . The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed on the ground. He sleeps and rises night and day, and the seed sprouts and grows; he knows not how. . . . But when the grain is ripe, at once he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.”—“Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.”—The Spirit and the Bride say, “Come.” And let the one who hears say, “Come.” Matt. 6:10; Dan. 2:44; Dan. 2:34; Zech. 4:6; Luke 17:20, 21; Mark 4:11, 26, 27, 29; Matt. 24:44; Rev. 22:17 (Read full verses...) << Oct 11 | Oct 12 | Oct 13 >> Excerpted from Daily Light on the Daily Path ©2002 Crossway Books, a publishing ministry of Good News Publishers.
