Morning:

Ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars:

see that ye be not troubled.

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in

trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be

removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of

the sea; though the waters thereof roar and be troubled,

though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Come,

my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors

about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until

the indignation be overpast. For, behold, the LORD cometh out of

his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their

iniquity. In the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge,

until these calamities be overpast. Your life is hid with

Christ in God.

He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed,

trusting in the LORD.

These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might

have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of

good cheer; I have overcome the world.

Matthew 24:6 Psalms 46:1-3 Isaiah 26:20-21 Psalms 57:1 Colossians 3:3 Psalms 112:7 John 16:33

Evening:

They persecute him whom thou hast smitten.

It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe unto

him, through whom they come! Him, being delivered by the

determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and

by wicked hands have crucified and slain. Then did they spit in

his face, and buffeted him; and others smote him with the

palms of their hands, saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ, Who

is he that smote thee? Likewise also the chief priests mocking

him, with the scribes and elders, said, He saved others;

himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now

come down from the cross. Of a truth against thy holy child

Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate,

with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered

together, for to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel

determined before to be done.

Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet

we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

Psalms 69:26 Luke 17:1 Acts 2:23 Matthew 26:67-68 Matthew 27:41-42 Acts 4:27-28 Isaiah 53:4
