God was manifested in the flesh, Justified in the Spirit, Seen by angels, Preached among the Gentiles, Believed on in the world, Received up in glory."

30th January

Jesus said: "Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad."

- 1 Corinthians 2:9-11

29th January

But as it is written: Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.
But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit.
For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.

For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him?
Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.

- 2 Timothy 4:1-5

28th January

I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom:

Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season.
Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.

For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.

But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.

- Hebrews 3:12-15

27th January

Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God; but exhort one another daily, while it is called Today, lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end, while it is said:

Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.

- 1 Peter 1:22-25

26th January

Since you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit in sincere love of the brethren, love one another fervently with a pure heart, having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever, because:

All flesh is as grass, And all the glory of man as the flower of the grass.
The grass withers, And its flower falls away, But the word of the Lord endures forever.

Now this is the word which by the gospel was preached to you.

- Psalm 86:3-5

25th January

Be gracious to me, O Lord, for to you do I cry all the day.
Gladden the soul of your servant, for to you, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you.

- John 15:7-11

24th January

Jesus said: "If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.
By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.

As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love.
If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Fathers commandments and abide in His love.

These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full."

- Psalm 70:4

- Galatians 4:1-7

22nd January

Now I say that the heir, as long as he is a child, does not differ at all from a slave, though he is master of all, but is under guardians and stewards until the time appointed by the father.
Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world.

But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.
And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, Abba, Father!

Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.

- 2 John 1:4-6

21st January

I rejoiced greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, as we received commandment from the Father.
And now I plead with you, (lady), not as though I wrote a new commandment to you, but that which we have had from the beginning:

that we love one another.

This is love, that we walk according to His commandments.
This is the commandment, that as you have heard from the beginning, you should walk in it.

- Luke 8:16-18

20th January

Jesus said: "No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a vessel or puts it under a bed, but sets it on a lampstand, that those who enter may see the light.
For nothing is secret that will not be revealed, nor anything hidden that will not be known and come to light.

Therefore take heed how you hear.

For whoever has, to him more will be given; and whoever does not have, even what he seems to have will be taken from him."

- Colossians 2:6-7

18th January

God, who made the world and everything in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands.
Nor is He worshiped with mens hands, as though He needed anything, since He gives to all life, breath, and all things.

- John 16:22-24

17th January

Jesus said: "Therefore you now have sorrow; but I will see you again and your heart will rejoice, and your joy no one will take from you.
And in that day you will ask Me nothing.

Most assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in My name He will give you.
Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full."

- Romans 7:22-25

16th January

For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man.
But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
O wretched man that I am!

Who will deliver me from this body of death?
I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord!

So then, with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.

- Philippians 1:9-11

15th January

And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in knowledge and all discernment, that you may approve the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ, being filled with the fruits of righteousness which are by Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

- Philippians 2:12-16

14th January

Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.
Do all things without complaining and disputing, that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, holding fast the word of life, so that I may rejoice in the day of Christ that I have not run in vain or labored in vain.

- Proverbs 3:11-12

My son, do not despise the chastening of the Lord, Nor detest His correction;
For whom the Lord loves He corrects, Just as a father the son in whom he delights.

- Isaiah 40:30-31

they shall mount up with wings like eagles;
they shall run and not be weary;
they shall walk and not faint.

- Philippians 4:4-7

11th January

Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!
Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand.

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

- 2 Timothy 4:18

To Him be glory forever and ever. Amen!

- Romans 14:8-9

9th January

For if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord.
Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lords.
For to this end Christ died and rose and lived again, that He might be Lord of both the dead and the living.

- Psalm 37:7-9

8th January

Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him; Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass.

Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; Do not fret it only causes harm.
For evildoers shall be cut off; But those who wait on the Lord, They shall inherit the earth.

- Luke 9:23-26

7th January

Then He [Jesus] said to them all, "If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.

For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will save it.
For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and is himself destroyed or lost?

For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words, of him the Son of Man will be ashamed when He comes in His own glory, and in His Fathers, and of the holy angels."

- Luke 17:32-33

- John 3:30-33

4th January

He must increase, but I must decrease.

He who comes from above is above all; he who is of the earth is earthly and speaks of the earth.
He who comes from heaven is above all.

And what He has seen and heard, that He testifies; and no one receives His testimony.
He who has received His testimony has certified that God is true.

- Luke 6:27-31

3rd January

Jesus said:
"But I say to you who hear:
Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you.

To him who strikes you on the one cheek, offer the other also.
And from him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your tunic either.
Give to everyone who asks of you.
And from him who takes away your goods do not ask them back.
And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to them likewise."
