Bible Tuesday 1/3: Behold Him

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 9:1-20. What situation am I facing at present where I need God to judge righteously on my behalf?

Genesis 3:1-24. Verses 4 and 5, the serpent tells the woman that God is lying. In what way have I recently wondered if I’d be better off doing my own will instead of God’s will?

I Corinthians 15:20-28. Verse 22, as this new year gets going, what kind of choices may I have to face between Christ, the life force, and Adam, the death force?

John 1:29-34. How can I enter into closer fellowship today with Jesus, the Lamb of God who takes away all sin?
