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?
Psalms 119:33-56. Verse 45 KJV, how does the liberty I gain by seeking God differ from the liberty we desire politically? What difference will the former make in my attitudes and actions on this day?
Zechariah 8:1-23. God’s good purpose for Israel after much suffering. What is my church doing to bring about this kind of revival for our community and our country?
John 12:37-50. Verse 43, where will I face, either today or very soon, a choice between seeking the praise of men and seeking the praise of God? How shall I prepare?
Matthew 21:18-32. Verses 20-22, what mountain do I need to see moved in my life right now? Do I believe God is able to move it when I pray in faith?
