Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for July 6

 Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for July 6 “I am my beloved’s” (Song of Solomon 7:10) If you want power you must compress. It is the shutting in of the steam that moves the engine. The amount of powder on a flat surface that sends a ball to its destination when shut up in a gun only makes a flash. If you want to carry the electric current you must be insulated. Stand a man on a glass platform and turn a battery on him and he will be filled with electricity. Let him step off the glass, and the moment he touches earth he loses power. We must be inclosed by His everlasting Covenant. That holds us and keeps us from falling. He will be a wall of fire round about us. He comes Himself and envelops us round about with the old Shekinah glory, and will be the glory in the midst. He wants us inclosed—by a distinct act of consecration dedicated wholly to Him. Are you inclosed by His fences, His commandments, His promises, His covenant? Is your heart really and only for the Lord? If not, co...

Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional for July 6

 Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional for July 6 Morning “Be ye not stiffnecked.” 2 Chronicles 29:1-5 , 2 Chronicles 29:15-19 2 Chronicles 29:1 , 2 Chronicles 29:2 It is quite a relief to get rid of Ahaz and meet with one of the best of kings. Now Judah will prosper again. 2 Chronicles 29:3 Those who mean to do well cannot begin too early; the first year of this king’s reign was full of good. 2 Chronicles 29:15 Those who are to sanctify God’s house must themselves first be sanctified; we cannot cleanse others if our own hands are foul. 2 Chronicles 29:16 That memorable brook which our Lord crossed when he once for all sanctified his people. All the uncleanness of our holy things he has beheld; and by passing over that brook in sorrow he has put it all away. 2 Chronicles 29:19 The house being purged, worship could begin; our hearts also must be purified before we can offer acceptable homage to the Lord. 2 Chronicles 30:1 , 2 Chronicles 30:6-12 2 Chronicles...

Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for July 6

Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for July 6 Tozer in the Morning Spiritual Sleepwalkers When the Bible says "Awake to righteousness and sin not," it indicates the possiblity of a sudden awakening, like when an alarm clock going off rouses you out of sleep. There is such a thing as being asleep and suddenly being wakened, and this is surprising to people. People often say, "You know, I was living a life displeasing to God. I was a church member, but though I didn't know it, I was displeasing to God. My life wasn't right. Then suddenly I was wakened by God. It was a surprise." . . . People who are awakened from moral sleep say, "Well, what's the matter with me? I've been living a life that's been displeasing to God, and I simply did not know it. "Surely the LORD is in this place, and I was not aware of it. . . . This is none other than the house of God; this is the gate of heaven'" (Genesis 28:16-17). Jacob must hav...

Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for July 6

 Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for July 6 “His Love; His Gift; His Son ” - John 3:16 Of all the stars in the sky, the polestar is the most useful to the mariner. This text is a polestar, for it has guided more souls to salvation than any other Scripture. It is among promises what the Great Bear is among constellations. Several words in it shine with peculiar brilliance. Here we have God’s love with a "so" to it, which marks its measureless greatness. Then we have God’s gift in all its freeness and greatness. This also is God’s Son, that unique and priceless gift of a love which could never fully show itself till heaven’s Only-begotten had been sent to live and die for men. These three points are full of light. Then there is the simple requirement of believing, which graciously points to a way of salvation suitable for guilty men. This is backed by a wide description -- "whosoever believeth in him." Many have found room in "...

Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 7th July 2025

 Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 7th July 2025 7/6 Romans 13:14 14 But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires. I am repeating this one verse from Through the Bible Daily Devotional because I find it so helpful. Jesus is our robe of righteousness. We are in Christ and Christ is in us. That is the ideal church. However, Paul reminded the Roman church that it was something that they must do. Every believer must put on Christ. It is very similar to putting on the armor of Ephesians chapter six (Ephesians 6:10-17). Every part of that armor has its source in the Word, and Jesus is the Word made flesh (John 1:14). When we are clothed in Christ, we act as He would act. We love like He would love. We live, move, and have our being in Him (Acts 17:28). We move at His will and align our will with His. That is when the world will see Jesus in our work, leisure, and worship. Being clothed in Christ, we don't look for opportunities to gratify ou...
