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 6:1-10. Verses 6 and 9, what’s costing me sleep right now? Shall I entrust it to God today, exchange my anxiety for his peace?
I Chronicles 20:1-8. Kindred of Goliath. What giant do I confront right now? How can I obtain from God the courage and strength of David and his men, to prevail?
Ephesians 3:1-13. Verses 3-5, mystery of Christ. How would I explain this in everyday terms to a new believer or an unbeliever? What difference does it make to me today?
Luke 11:14-23. Verses 18-20, kingdom of Satan vs. kingdom of God. Whose subject shall I be today? What is required of me? What is promised me?
