sripture for the day

NOVEMBER 5 MORNING

 Take thou also unto thee principal spices, and thou shalt make it an

oil of holy ointment.–EXO. 30:23,25.

 

Upon man’s flesh shall it not be poured, neither shall ye make any

other like it, after the composition of it: it is holy, and it shall be

holy unto you.–One Spirit.–Diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

 

Thy God hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy

fellows.–God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with

power.–God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him.

 

Of his fulness have all we received.–As the same anointing teacheth

you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath

taught you, ye shall abide in him.–He which . . . hath anointed us, is

God; who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in

our hearts.

 

The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness,

goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

NOVEMBER 5 EVENING

The fashion of this world passeth away.–I COR. 7:31.

 

All the days of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and nine years: and

he died.

Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted: but the

rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he

shall pass away. For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning beat,

but it withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth, and the

grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade

away in his ways.–For what is your life? It is even a vapour of that

appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.–The world

passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God

abideth for ever.

Lord, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is;

that I may know how frail I am.–When they shall say, Peace and safety;

then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with

child; and they shall not escape. But ye, brethren, are not in

darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.

 

Gen. 5:27.Jas. 1:9-11. -Jas. 4:14. -I John 2:17.Psa. 39:4. -I Thes.

NOVEMBER 4 MORNING

 

Now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold

   temptations.–I PET. 1:6.

 

Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to

try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: but rejoice,

inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his

glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.–The

exhortation . . . speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise

not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of

him.–Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous but

grievous: nevertheless, afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of

righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.

 

We have not a high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of

our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet

without sin.–For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is

able to succour them that are tempted.–God is faithful, who will not

suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able.

 

I Pet. 4:12,13. -Heb. 12:5. -Heb. 12:11.Heb. 4:15. -Heb. 2:18. -I Cor.

10:13.

NOVEMBER 4 EVENING

 

  The Prince of Peace.–ISA. 9:6.

 

He shall judge thy people with righteousness, and thy poor with

judgment. The mountains shall bring peace to the people, and the little

hills, by righteousness. He shall come down like rain upon the mown

grass; as showers that water the earth. In his days shall the righteous

flourish; and abundance of peace so long as the moon endureth.–Glory

to God . . . on earth peace, good will toward men.

 

Through the tender mercy of our God; . . . the dayspring from on high

hath visited us. To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the

shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace;–peace by

Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all).

 

These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In

the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have

overcome the world.–Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you:

not as the world giveth give I unto you.–The peace of God, which

passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through

Christ Jesus.

 

Psa. 72:2-7. -Luke. 2:14.Luke. 1:78,79. -Acts 10:36.John 16:33. -John

NOVEMBER 1 MORNING

   Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting

   at the posts of my doors.–PROV. 8:34.

   Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters,

   and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes

   wait upon the Lord our God, until that he have mercy upon us.

   A continual burnt offering throughout your generations at the door of

   the tabernacle of the congregation before the Lord: where I will meet

   you, to speak there unto thee.–In all places where I record my name I

   will come unto thee, and I will bless thee.

   Where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the

   midst of them.

   The hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship

   the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to

   worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship

   him in spirit and in truth.

   Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit.–Pray

   without ceasing.

   Psa. 123:2.Exo. 29:42. -Exo. 20:24.Matt. 18:20.John 4:23,24.Eph. 6:18.

   -I Thes. 5:17.

   NOVEMBER 1 EVENING

   His name shall be called Counsellor.–ISA. 9:6.

   The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and

   understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of

   knowledge, and of the fear of the Lord. And shall make him of quick

   understanding in the fear of the Lord.

   Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice? Unto you, O

   men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man. O ye simple,

   understand wisdom: and ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart. Hear;

   for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall

   be right things. Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding;

   I have strength.

   The Lord of hosts . . . is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in

   working.–If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to

   all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given

   him.–Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine

   own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct

   thy paths.

   Isa. 11:2,3.Prov. 8:1,4-6,14.Isa. 28:29. -Jas. 1:5. -Prov. 3:5,6.
