Psalm-119:1-18

There are times when solitude is better than society, and silence is wiser than speech.

Matthew 13:1-9; Matthew 18-23

Jesus was always teaching. On this particular day His pulpit was a fishing boat, from which He spoke to the multitudes standing on the shore.

The natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. Open my eyes, that I may see wondrous things from Your law.I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life. § We all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image … just as by the Spirit of the Lord. It is...

Trusting in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. § If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. § The foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men… God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise… that no flesh should glory in His presence.The entrance of Your words gives light; it gives understanding to the...

This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. § God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. § The Word was God … In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. § If we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us...

I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless. § You shall be holy to Me, for I the Lord am holy, and have separated you from the peoples, that you should be Mine.You were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.You are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power. § Who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed. § Be diligent to be found by Him in peace, without spot and...

He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures. § It has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given. § I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes. Even so Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight. § We have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that...

You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. § Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom.How can a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed according to Your word. With my whole heart I have sought You; oh, let me not wander from Your commandments!When wisdom enters your heart, and knowledge is pleasant to your soul, discretion will preserve you; understanding will keep you.My foot has held fast to His steps; I have kept His...

Open my eyes, that I may see wondrous things from Your law.And He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures. § But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you. § Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the...
