Post-o-Matic 3.16† 0 Report post Posted November 11, 2009 Morning He led them in safety. I walk in the way of righteousness, in the paths of justice. “Behold, I send an angel before you to guard you on the way and to bring you to the place that I have prepared.”—In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them; in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; he lifted them up and carried them all the days of old. Not by their own sword did they win the land, nor did their own arm save them, but your right hand and your arm, and the light of your face, for you delighted in them.—So you led your people, to make for yourself a glorious name. Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousness because of my enemies; make your way straight before me.—Send out your light and your truth; let them lead me; let them bring me to your holy hill and to your dwelling! Then I will go to the altar of God, to God my exceeding joy, and I will praise you with the lyre, O God, my God. Ps. 78:53; Prov. 8:20; Ex. 23:20; Isa. 63:9; Ps. 44:3; Isa. 63:14; Ps. 5:8; Ps. 43:3, 4 (Read full verses...) Evening You were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified. The blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.—Upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his stripes we are healed.—Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.—“It was granted her to clothe herself with fine linen, bright and pure”—for the fine linen is the righteous deeds of the saints.—Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies.—Blessed is the one whose transgression is forgiven. . . . Blessed is the man against whom the LORD counts no iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit. 1 Cor. 6:11; 1 John 1:7; Isa. 53:5; Eph. 5:25-27; Rev. 19:8; Heb. 10:22; Rom. 8:33; Ps. 32:1, 2 (Read full verses...) << Nov 10 | Nov 11 | Nov 12 >> Excerpted from Daily Light on the Daily Path ©2002 Crossway Books, a publishing ministry of Good News Publishers.
