James 4:13-17 Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain: 14?Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. 15?For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that. […]

Ecclesiastes 7:8 Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.
These are good words to meditate upon as we come to the close of another year. I am not sure what 2010 held for all who may be reading this devotional. For many as they look back they will see trials that they never saw coming or they did not think they could ever get through. […]

1 Samuel 7:12-13Then Samuel took a stone, and set it between Mizpeh and Shen, and called the name of it Eben-ezer, saying, Hitherto hath the Lord helped us. 13?So the Philistines were subdued, and they came no more into the coast of Israel: and the hand of the Lord was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.
“The Lord helped us.” How many times as we look back on 2010 can we say that the Lord helped us? At least […]

John 14:1-6 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. 2?In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you.

Job 8:11-14 Can the rush grow up without mire? Can the flag grow without water? 12? Whilst it is yet in his greenness, and not cut down, It withereth before any other herb. 13? So are the paths of all that forget God; And the hypocrite’s hope shall perish: 14? Whose hope shall be cut off, And whose trust shall be a spider’s web.
During his trial Job received little help from his friends and little truth as well. But here […]

Hebrews 2:5-18 For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the world to come, whereof we speak. 6?But one in a certain place testified, saying, What is man, that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man, that thou visitest him? 7?Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands: 8?Thou hast put all things in subjection under his […]

Isaiah 41:8-10 But thou, Israel, art my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, The seed of Abraham my friend. 9? Thou whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, And called thee from the chief men thereof, And said unto thee, Thou art my servant; I have chosen thee, and not cast thee away. 10? Fear thou not; for I am with thee: Be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will […]

1 Corinthians 2:12-16 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. 13?Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. 14?But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he […]

Jer 31:1-3 At the same time, saith the Lord, Will I be the God of all the families of Israel, And they shall be my people. 2? Thus saith the Lord, The people which were left of the sword found grace in the wilderness; Even Israel, when I went to cause him to rest. 3? The Lord hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: Therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.

Hebrews 9:24-28 For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us: 25?Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others; 26?For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world […]
