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 119:1-48. Verses 2, 10, 34 KJV, observing me recently, where might God have found my devotion to him not quite wholehearted?
II Kings 1:1-18. Elijah rebukes the idolatry of Ahab’s son. What false gods are exalted by prominent Americans these days? What’s the consequence? My church’s role?
Acts 27:13-26. Verse 23, “God whose I am and whom I serve.” By what marks, without my saying so, should my allegiance to the living God be evident to others?
Mark 14:66-15. Peter’s three denials. When have I turned my back on Jesus? What did I learn? Present application?
