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 105:1-45. Verse 15 KJV, touch not my anointed. For what person shall I pray God to give this command of protection today against all that dear one’s enemies, material and spiritual?
Genesis 37:1-36. Verses 5-11, when have I boasted rashly about God’s dealings with me? What was the result? Application for today?
Romans 1:18-32. Verse 25, in what way am I tempted to worship created things more than the Creator himself, God? Action point?
Matthew 11:20-24. Jesus warns against spiritual dullness, ingratitude, and apathy. By what attitudes and actions can I show the Lord I’m a “Capernaum and Bethsaida convert” today?
