Bible Monday 10/25: Gospel Heroes

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 136:1-26. Verse 12, how does it make my day better, realizing God’s hand is strong and his arm is stretched out to me?

II Chronicles 3:1-17. Exactness and grandeur of plans for the temple, revealed by God to Solomon. What detail of my life have I been regarding as beneath God’s notice? How could it be?

Philippians 2:19-30. Timothy and Epaphroditus, gospel partners of Paul. What qualities of these Christian soldiers shall I ask God to endow in me today?

Luke 18:1-8. Verse 8, as Jesus watches me today, what are some proofs of my faith he will want to see?
