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 34:1-22. Verse 3, how do we do this at my church? How do I do it with family and friends? Action point for today?
II Chronicles 17:1-19. Verses 7-9, Jehoshaphat commands that all the people be taught from God’s book. As fewer Americans see the Bible as a source of truth and right, what’s the consequence to my descendants?
I Thessalonians 4:9-18. If Jesus returns today, what do I want him to find me thinking, saying, and doing?
Luke 16:14-18. Verse 15, what are some things highly valued by the world, that God counts as nothing or worse than nothing? Applying this to my own way of life, where am I convicted?
