Devotional: January 24th

Morning:

The Lord is at hand.

The Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with

the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of God: and the

dead in Christ shall rise first: then we who 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.

Wherefore comfort one another with these words. He who

testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen.

Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be

diligent that ye may be found by him in peace, without spot, and

blameless. Abstain from all appearance of evil. And the very

God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole

spirit and soul and body may be preserved blameless to the

coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Faithful is he that calleth

you, who also will do it.

Be ye also patient; establish your hearts: for the coming of

the Lord draweth near.

Evening:

The choice vine.

My wellbeloved hath a vineyard in a very fruitful hill: and

he dug it, and removed its stones, and planted it with the

choicest vine, . . . and he expected that it should bring forth

grapes, and it brought forth wild grapes. Yet I had planted

thee a noble vine, wholly a right seed: how then art thou turned

into the degenerate plant of a strange vine to me?

Now the works of the flesh are revealed, which are these;

Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, envyings,

murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: . . . but the

fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering,

gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, self-control.

I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. Every

branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every

branch that beareth fruit, he trimmeth it, that it may bring

forth more fruit. Abide in me, and I in you. . . . In this is my

Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my

disciples.
