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 44:1-26. Verse 3, what are some blessings I must remember to thank God for today, rather than arrogantly assuming they were my own doing with no help from him?
Deuteronomy 6:1-25. Verses 4-9, by what attitudes and actions today may others notice in me not only the “shall nots” of the Decalogue but also the “shall do” of a total, wholehearted love for God?
Hebrews 7:11-28. Verse 25, Jesus ever lives to make intercession with God for us. What urgent needs am I particularly asking the Son to bring to the Father on my behalf today?
Matthew 5:31-37. Jesus warns that oaths and swearing tend to cheapen our communication with God and each other. What’s the action point for me today?
