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 5:1-12. Verse 9, how does the enemy use flattery to entrap me? What is God’ remedy?
Numbers 16:1-50. Korah’s rebellion ends badly. Has there ever been a time when I thought I knew better than God? What was the outcome? Present application?
Acts 13:13-25. Jews of Pisidia invite Paul to tell them about Jesus. If offered a few minutes to give my testimony in a friendly group of nonbelievers, what would I say?
Mark 5:1-20. Verses 18 and 19, in my life at present, do I have the right mix between “alone time” with the Lord and “sharing time” with others who need the Lord? Action point?
