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 89:1-52. Verses 30-34, nevertheless. When has God kept faith with me even though I broke faith with him? How can I thank him today?
Ezra 2:1-70. Honor roll of the Jews who returned to Jerusalem from exile in Babylon. What opportunity can I find today to take a risk and make a sacrifice for the glory of God?
II Corinthians 8:1-15. Verse 9, what spiritual riches have I received through the poverty of Jesus Christ crucified? How shall I spend or invest those riches today?
Luke 11:14-23. Where do I sense Satan trying to get at me today? What protection do I need from Jesus?
