Psalm of the Day: Psalm 83:1-18 Wisdom of the Day: Job 8:12-22 Scripture Reading: Luke 7:11-17 We also learn the almighty POWER of our Lord Jesus Christ. We can ask no proof of this more striking, than the miracle which we are now considering. He gives life back to a dead man, with a few words. He speaks to a cold corpse and at once it becomes a living person. In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, the heart, the lungs, the brain, the senses, again resume their work a

Psalm of the Day: Psalm 78:31-45 Wisdom of the Day: Job 5:1-16 Scripture Reading: Luke 6:46-49 Let us see in these verses what a striking picture our Lord draws of the religion of the man who not only hears Christ's sayings, but DOES Christ's will. He compares him to one who "built a house, and dug deep, and laid the foundation on a rock." Such a man's religion may cost him much. Like the house built on a rock, it may entail on him pains, labor, and self-denial. To lay

Psalm of the Day: Psalm 74:1-12 Wisdom of the Day: Ecclesiastes 11:1-10 Scripture Reading: Luke 6:27-38 In the third place, our Lord points out to His disciples the necessity of their having a HIGHER STANDARD OF DUTY to their neighbor than the people of this world. He reminds them that to love those who love them, and do good to those who do good to them, and lend to those of whom they hope to receive is to act no better than the sinner who knows nothing of the Gospel.

Psalm of the Day: Psalm 69:17-36 Wisdom of the Day: Ecclesiastes 7:16-29 Scripture Reading: Luke 6:12-19 Let us observe that when our Lord ordained His first ministers, He did it after much prayer. We read that He "went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God. When morning came, He called His disciples unto Him, and He chose twelve of them, whom He named apostles." We need not doubt that there is a deep significance in this special mention

Psalm of the Day: Psalm 63 Wisdom of the Day: Ecclesiastes 3:9-15 Scripture Reading: Luke 5:33-39 We should observe in these verses that men may disagree on the lesser points of religion, while they agree on its weightier matters. We have this brought out in the alleged difference between the disciples of John the Baptist, and the disciples of Christ. The question was put to our Lord, "John's disciples often fast and pray, and so do the disciples of the Pharisees, but w

Psalm of the Day: Psalm 56 Proverb of the Day: Proverbs 31:10-31 Scripture Reading: Luke 5:17-26 The friends of a paralyzed man desired to bring him to Jesus, that he might be cured. At first they were unable to do it because of the crowd by which our Lord was surrounded. What did they do? "When they could not find a way to do this because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd right in front of J

Psalm of the Day: Psalm 49 Proverb of the Day: Proverbs 28:1-14 Scripture Reading: Luke 5:1-11 We should observe what encouragement our Lord gives to unquestioning obedience. We are told, that after preaching He said to Simon, "launch out into the deep and let down the nets for a catch." He receives an answer which shows the mind of a good servant. "Master," says Simon, "we have toiled all the night and have caught nothing, nevertheless, at your word I will let down the

Psalm of the Day: Psalm 42 Proverb of the Day: Proverbs 24:23-34 Scripture Reading: Luke 4:23-32 We learn how bitterly human nature dislikes the doctrine of the sovereignty of God. We see this in the conduct of the Jews of Nazareth when our Lord reminded them that God was under no obligation to work miracles among them. Were there not many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah? No doubt there were. Yet to none of them was the prophet sent. All were passed over in fav

Psalm of the Day: Psalm 35 Proverb of the Day: Proverbs 21:1-15 Scripture Reading: Luke 4 Let us notice our Lord Jesus Christ's ability to sympathize with those who are tempted. This is a truth that stands out prominently in this passage. Jesus has been really and literally tempted Himself. It was proper that He who came "to destroy the works of the devil" should begin His own work with a special conflict with Satan. It was proper that the great Shepherd and bishop of
