Thursday, February 10

Deuteronomy 7:6-11, Titus 1:1-16, John 1:29-34

Q. 3. What do the Scriptures principally teach?

A. The Scriptures principally teach what man is to believe concerning God, and what duty God requires of man.

Q. 4. What is God?

A. God is a Spirit, infinite, eternal, and unchangeable, in his being, wisdom, power, holiness, justice, goodness, and truth.

Prayer: You O Lord have done great things for us, and we rejoice. Restore our fortunes, O Lord, like the water courses in the Negeb. May those who sow in tears reap with shouts of joy. Those who go out weeping, bearing the seed for sowing, shall come home with shouts of joy, carrying their sheaves.

(Psalm 126:3-6)

Analysis: Follow the word of God in not only your words but in your actions. Keep a clean heart so you can focus the message of the Gospel when challenged by those who would impart evil. Know that God sent Jesus to us to be a living testament and model for the Word.
