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 80:1-19. What qualities of God’s sheep must I express today in order to receive the Good Shepherd’s protection and help?
Amos 2:1-16. Verses 10-12, how do I sometimes try to silence the unwelcome prophetic voices calling out the moral and spiritual lapses of God’s people today?
Acts 20:1-16. A young Christian, feared dead from effects of a fall, is revived as Paul preaches about life in Christ. For what faithful disciple in need of healing shall I pray this morning?
Mark 9:14-29. Verse 24, where is the dividing line between belief and unbelief in my current relationship with Jesus? Why is it important for me to be completely honest with him about that?
