Bible Wednesday 6/7: Angel Escort

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 91:1-16. Verse 1, why is it important for God’s secret place to be secret? How can I dwell there and still go about my daily activities?

Leviticus 17:1-16. Verse 7, how does the world allure me—without my realizing it—to offer sacrifices to devils? Action point?

Acts 5:12-21. Verse 19, an angel frees the apostles from prison. What do I need to have God’s angels rescue me from today?

John 18:12-27. What excuses might Peter have been making to himself as he repeatedly denied Jesus? When have I let Jesus down and dishonestly rationalized my actions? What did I learn?
