Studying this morning's four readings from the St. James Daily Devotional Guide (click to subscribe), I examined myself with these questions. Where is your self-examination leading today?
Psalm 64:1-10. Verses 3 and 7, KJV, the enemy's attack and God's defense are likened to arrows: swift, silent, sharp, specific. What arrows from the Lord do I particularly need today?
Leviticus 7:1-38. Even in the Christian's freedom from these rules of sacramental eating, how can I be more intentional about what to "feed on" and "fast from" spiritually? Action point?
I Corinthians 14:26-40. Verses 33 and 40, KJV, in my own church and in the whole Body of Christ, where shall I pray God to heal confusion with peace, decently and in order?
John 18:1-11. Imagining myself in this scene, put to the test today, what is there of Judas in me? Of Peter? Of Jesus? Prayer point for the next 24 hours?
