Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain. Psalm 127:1
Daily Meditation
“…give place unto wrath:”
Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. To me belongeth vengeance and recompence; their foot shall slide in due time: for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that shall come upon them make haste. Have ye not asked them that go by the way? and do ye not know their tokens, That the wicked is reserved to the day of destruction? they shall be brought forth to the day of wrath. Romans 12:19; Deuteronomy 32:35; Job 21:29, 30
Hymn
“He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of His mercy.” Titus 3:5
Lord, in this Thy mercy’s day,
Ere for us it pass away,
On our knees we fall and pray.
Holy Jesus, grant us tears,
Fill us with heart searching fears,
Ere the hour of doom appears.
Lord, on us Thy Spirit pour,
Kneeling lowly at Thy door,
Ere it close forevermore.
By Thy night of agony,
By Thy supplicating cry,
By Thy willingness to die,
By Thy tears of bitter woe,
For Jerusalem below,
Let us not Thy peace forego.
Judge and Savior of our race,
Grant us, when we see Thy face,
With Thy ransomed ones a place.
Grant us ’neath Thy wings a place,
Lest we lose this day of grace,
Ere we shall behold Thy face.
On Thy love we rest alone,
And that love shall then be known,
By the pardoned, round Thy throne.
Consolation
Therefore the LORD hath recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye sight. With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful, and with the upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright. With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself unsavoury. 2 Samuel 22:25-27
Exhortation
And be not ye like your fathers, and like your brethren, which trespassed against the LORD God of their fathers, who therefore gave them up to desolation, as ye see. Now be ye not stiffnecked, as your fathers were, but yield yourselves unto the LORD, and enter into his sanctuary, which he hath sanctified for ever: and serve the LORD your God, that the fierceness of his wrath may turn away from you. or if ye turn again unto the LORD, your brethren and your children shall find compassion before them that lead them captive, so that they shall come again into this land: for the LORD your God is gracious and merciful, and will not turn away his face from you, if ye return unto him. 2 Chronicles 30:7-9

Proverbs
A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit. A fool despiseth his father's instruction: but he that regardeth reproof is prudent. In the house of the righteous is much treasure: but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble. Proverbs 15:4-6
Weekly Verse:
But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away. Isaiah 64:6
I Pray Thee
