Morning:
Every branch that beareth fruit, he trimmeth it.
He is like a refiner’s fire, and like fullers’ soap: and he
shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall
purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that
they may offer to the LORD an offering in righteousness.
We glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation
worketh patience; and patience, experience; and experience,
hope: and hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is
shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit which is given to
us. If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons;
for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? But if ye are
without chastisement, of which all are partakers, then are ye
bastards, and not sons. Now no chastening for the present
seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it
yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness to them who are
exercised by it. Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down,
and the feeble knees.
John 15:2 Malachi 3:2-3 Romans 5:3-5 Hebrews 12:7-8 Hebrews 12:11-13 Hebrews 13:22
Evening:
Now we call the proud happy.
Thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity,
whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with
him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive
the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the
contrite ones.
Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than
to divide the spoil with the proud. Blessed are the poor in
spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an
abomination to him: a proud look, etc. Every one that is
proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD.
Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my
thoughts: and see if there is any wicked way in me, and lead
me in the way everlasting.
Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from
the Lord Jesus Christ. I thank my God upon every remembrance of
you. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
Malachi 3:15 Isaiah 57:15 Proverbs 16:19 Matthew 5:3 Proverbs 6:16-17 Proverbs 16:5 Psalms 139:23-24 Philippians 1:2-3 Matthew 5:5 Psalms 25:9
