FEBRUARY 19 MORNING
The Lord giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.—PROV. 2:6.

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.—If any of you lack wisdom let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally and up bradeth not; and it shall be given him.—The foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.—God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise. That no flesh should glory in his presence.

The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.—Thy word have I hid in my heart, that I might not sin against thee.

All bare him witness, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth.—Never man spake like this man.—Of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption.
Prov. 3:5. -Jas. 1:5. -I Cor. 1:25. -I Cor. 1:27,29.Psa. 119:130. -Psa. 119:11.Luke 4:22. -John 7:46. -I Cor. 1:30.

FEBRUARY 19 EVENING
The year of my redeemed is come.—ISA. 63:4.

Ye shall hallow the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubilee unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, . . . and unto his family.

Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs and the earth shall cast out the dead.

The Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be thy plagues; O grave, I will be thy destruction.
Their Redeemer is strong; the Lord of hosts is his name.
Lev. 25:10.Isa. 26:19.I Thes. 4:16,17.Hos. 13:14.Jer. 50:34.

FEBRUARY 12 MORNING
They shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels.—MAL. 3:17.

I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word. I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them. Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am: that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

I will come again, and receive you unto myself.—He shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe . . . in that day.—We which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.—Thou shalt also be a crown of glory in the hand of theLord, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.
John 17:6,9,10,24.John 14:3. -II Thes. 1:10. -I Thes. 4:17. -Isa. 62:3.

FEBRUARY 12 EVENING
I beseech thee, shew me thy glory.—EXO. 33:18.

God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.—The Word was made flesh and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth . . . No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.

My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God?—When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, Lord, will I seek.

We all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.—Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.
II Cor. 4:6. -John 1:14,18.Psa. 42:2. -Psa. 27:8.II Cor. 3:18. -John 17:24.

FEBRUARY 5 MORNING
I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.—JOHN
10:10.


In the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.—She took of the fruit thereof,and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
The wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
—If by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.
—Since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
—Our Saviour Jesus Christ, . . .hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel. God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
—For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
Gen. 2:17. -Gen. 3:6.Rom. 6:23. -Rom. 5:17. -I Cor. 15:21,22. -II Tim. 1:10.I John 5:11,12. -John 3:17.

FEBRUARY 5 EVENING
The judgment-seat.—II COR. 5:10.

We are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth.
—When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne
of his glory: and before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats. Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun, in the kingdom of their Father.
—Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth. Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea, rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
—There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus. We are chastened of the Lord,
that we should not be condemned with the world.
Rom. 2:2. -Matt. 25:31,32.Matt. 13:43. -Rom. 8:33,34. -Rom. 8:1.I Cor. 11:32.

Daily Light on the Daily Path — January 29, 2012

JANUARY 29 MORNING
Thou God seest me.—GEN. 16:13.
O Lord, thou hast searched me, and known me. Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off. Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether . . . Such knowledge is too wonderful for me: it is high, I cannot attain unto it.

The eyes of the Lord are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.—The ways of man are before the eyes of the Lord, and he pondereth all his goings.
—God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.
—The eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Jesus . . . knew all men, and needed not that any should testify of man; for he knew what was in man.
—Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee.
Psa. 139:1-4,6.Prov. 15:3. -Prov. 5:21. -Luke 16:15. -II Chr. 16:9.John 2:24,25.John 21:17.

JANUARY 29 EVENING
I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore.
PSA. 86:12.

Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me.
—It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High: to shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night.
Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord.
I beseech you, . . . brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living
sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
—Jesus . . . that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate. By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.
—Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.
Psa. 50:23. -Psa. 92:1,2.Psa. 150:6.Rom. 12:1. -Heb. 13:12,15. -Eph. 5:20.Rev. 5:12.

MORNING
Every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it.—JOHN 15:2.

He is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap: and he shall sit as a refiner and purifierof silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that theymay offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness.

We glory in tribulations: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; and patience, experience; and experience, hope: and hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.—If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons, for what son is he whom the Father chasteneth not? But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons. 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. Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees.
Mal. 3:2,3.Rom. 5:3-5. -Heb. 12:7,8,11,12.

EVENING
Now we call the proud happy.—MAL. 3:15.

Thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.

Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.—Blessed are the poor in spirit for their’s is the kingdom of heaven. These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: a proud look, . . . .—Every one that is proud of heart is an abomination to the Lord.

Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: and see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. I thank my God upon every remembrance of you.—Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
Isa. 57:15.Prov. 16:19. -Matt. 5:3.Prov. 6:16.17. -Prov. 16:5.Psa. 139:23,24.Phi. 1:2.3. -Matt. 5:5.

MORNING
My soul cleaveth unto the dust: quicken thou me according to thy word.—PSA. 119:25.

If ye . . . be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For your life is hid with Christ in God.—Our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.

The flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.—Brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.—Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul.
Col. 3:1-3. -Phi. 3:20,21.Gal. 5:17. -Rom. 8:12.13. -I Pet. 2:11.

EVENING
The measure of faith.—ROM. 12:3.

Him that is weak in the faith.—Strong in faith, giving glory to God.

O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?—Great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt.

Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, Lord . . . According to your faith be it unto you.

Lord, increase our faith.—Building up yourselves on your most holy faith.—Rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith.—He which stablisheth us with you in Christ,. . . is God.—The God of all grace . . . after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, establish, strengthen, settle you.

We . . . that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.—Let us not . . . judge one another . . . but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling block or an occasion to fall in his brother’s way.
Rom. 14:1. -Rom. 4:20.Matt. 14:31. -Matt. 15:28.Matt. 9:28,29.Luke 17:5. -Jude 20. -Col. 2:7. -II Cor. 1:21. -I Pet.

MORNING
They that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.—PSA. 9:10.

The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.—I will trust, and not be afraid: for the Lord JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation.

I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.—For the Lord loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints, they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.—The Lord will not forsake his people for his great name's sake: because it hath pleased the Lord to make you his people.—Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us.

Be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
Prov. 18:10. -Isa. 12:2.Psa. 37:25. -Psa. 37:28. -I Sam. 12:22. -II Cor. 1:10.Heb. 13:5,6.

EVENING
They are without fault before the throne of God.—REV. 14:5.

The iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah,and they shall not be found: for I will pardon them whom I reserve.—Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger forever, because he delighteth in mercy. He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.

He hath made us accepted in the beloved.—To present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight.

Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, to the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.
Jer. 50:20. -Mic. 7:18,19.Eph. 1:6. -Col. 1:22.Jude 24,25.

MORNING
This one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind,. . . I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.PHI. 3:13,14.

Father, I will that they . . . whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they
may behold my glory, which thou hast given me.—I know whom I have believed, and am
persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.—

He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.

Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run,
that ye may obtain. And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things.

Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.—Let us lay aside
every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race
that is set before us, looking unto Jesus.
John 17:24. -II Tim. 1:12. -Phi. 1:6.I Cor. 9:24,25. -Heb. 12:1,2.

EVENING
The Lord, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee.DEUT. 31:8.

If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence.—O Lord, I know that the way of
man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.

The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way. Though
he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand.

I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my right hand. Thou shalt guide
me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory.—I am persuaded, that neither death,
nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of
God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Exo. 33:15. -Jer. 10:23.Psa. 37:23,24.Psa. 73:23,24. -Rom. 8:38,39.
