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 119:1-32. Verse 28 KJV, what is heavy on my soul today? What shall I pray God to do about it?
Zechariah 9:1-17. Verse 9, if God could foretell the events of Palm Sunday five centuries in advance, what cannot he do? Present application to increase my faith for today’s needs?
John 12:12-36. Verses 25 and 26, what do I need to renounce in order to follow Jesus more faithfully? By what vow can I make this Passion Week a turning point in my Christian life forevermore?
Matthew 21:1-17. Verses 12-14, theft or prayer? How does this play out in the everyday life of my church? My role?
