Bible Friday 1/23: Floodlight

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 62:1-12. Verses 2, 5, 6, reliance on God only. Is there some issue where I’ve treated prayer as an afterthought, a last resort? Why not reverse that today and take a God-first, God-only approach?

Deuteronomy 12:1-32. Moses gives Israel new requirements for purity of worship when they enter the Promised Land. Is it time for me to take the next step of spiritual maturity as God directs?

Hebrews 10:11-18. Is God’s new covenant with us, sealed in Christ’s blood, written inwardly on my heart and mind? If so, how would this be evident to others today without me saying a word?

Matthew 6:22-24. Related, what is Jesus asking me to do in order that my whole being may be filled with his light?
