Jonathan Bagster's Daily Light on the Daily Path (Daily)
Morning:
Leaning on Jesus' bosom.
As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you.--
They brought young children to him, that he should touch them:
and [his] disciples rebuked those that brought [them].--And he
took them up in his arms, put [his] hands upon them, and blessed
them.--Jesus called his disciples [unto him], and said, I have
compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now
three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them
away fasting, lest they faint in the way.--An high priest . . .
touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all
points tempted like as [we are, yet] without sin.--In his love
and in his pity he redeemed them.
I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.--Can a
woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have
compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet
will I not forget thee.
The Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them,
and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God
shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
Joh 13:23 Isa 66:13 Mr 10:13,16 Mt 15:32 Heb 4:15 Isa 63:9
Joh 14:18 Isa 49:15 Re 7:17
Evening:
Jesus Christ the righteous: . . .
the propitiation for our sins.
Toward the mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubims be.
And thou shalt put the mercy seat above upon the ark; and in the
ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee. And
there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from
above the mercy seat.
Surely his salvation [is] nigh them that fear him; . . .
Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have
kissed [each other].
If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall
stand? But [there is] forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be
feared.--Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD [there
is] mercy, and with him [is] plenteous redemption. And he shall
redeem Israel from all his iniquities.--All have sinned, and
come short of the glory of God; being justified freely by his
grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: whom God
hath set forth [to be] a propitiation through faith in his
blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins.
