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 108:1-13. Verses 7-9, God’s sovereignty over the political map. What are some localities of trouble and concern right now that I can prayerfully commit to his care today?
Leviticus 22:1-33. Don’t profane the holy things. Albeit the letter of these warnings is no longer applicable, how does their spirit apply to whatever I say and do today?
Acts 7:51-8:3. Verses 58, 1, 3, how did God use Stephen to help save Saul (later Paul)? How can the lessons of Stephen’s last day on earth make me a better disciple today?
Mark 2:23-28. How can I keep the sabbath in a manner more pleasing to Jesus?
