Today's Devotion (Friday, Apr 19)

Jonathan Bagster's Daily Light on the Daily Path (Daily)

Morning:

Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.

The veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the
bottom.--Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for
the unjust, that he might bring us to God.--The way into the
holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first
tabernacle was yet standing.

I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved,
and shall go in and out, and find pasture.

No man cometh unto the Father, but by me.--Through him we
both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. Now therefore ye
are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with
the saints, and of the household of God.--Having, . . .
brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of
Jesus, 20 By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated
for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh.--We have
peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: by whom also we
have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and
rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

Joh 10:7 Mt 27:51 1Pe 3:18 Heb 9:8 Joh 10:9 14:6 Eph 2:18,19
Heb 10:19,20 Ro 5:1,2


Evening:

[His word] was in mine heart as a burning fire
shut up in my bones, and I was weary with forbearing,
and I could not [stay].

Necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach
not the gospel! . . . What is my reward then? [Verily] that,
when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ
without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.--They
called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in
the name of Jesus. But Peter and John answered and said unto
them, . . . We cannot but speak the things which we have seen
and heard.--The love of Christ constraineth us.

I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth. . . .
[Thou] wicked and slothful servant, . . . thou oughtest
therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and [then] at
my coming I should have received mine own with usury.

Go . . . to thy friends, and tell them how great things the
Lord hath done for thee.
