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 42:1-11. Verse 9, does it seem at present that God has in some way forgotten me? Has he really, or is there some other explanation? What’s to be done?
Isaiah 21:1-17. Verses 6, 11, 12, who keeps watch in my church and my community at God’s direction? Why does it matter? My role?
Revelation 2:18-29. Verse 20, what does the false prophetess Jezebel symbolize for us as Christ-followers in these times? What is my church doing about it?
Luke 19:41-48. Verse 46, how could I be doing more to make our church a house of prayer?
