 Divorce Mark 10:1-12 waysidebiblechapel.org August 23, 2026 1 And he left there and went to the region of Judea and beyond the Jordan, and crowds gathered to him again. And again, as was his custom, he taught them. Mark 10:1 Leaving Galilee for the last time, Jesus and His disciples went to the south to Judea and then to the eastern side of the Jordan which was called Perea. This was the area in which Jesus faced the temptation in the wilderness and where distant relatives lived in the town of Kochaba. It is the place His ministry began being baptized by John the Baptist. There James and John began following Him. His ministry had come full circle. Jesus' recollection of the Baptist declaring that Jesus is the lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world was surely on His mind. He would never return to Galilee. Once again the crowds enveloped Jesus and the disciples, and as was His custom, He used the opportunity to teach about the upside down world of the kingdom of God, where ...

 Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: August 23rd Morning “Keep thy heart with all diligence.” Matthew 6:19-24 Our Lord in his Sermon on the Mount further said: Matthew 6:19-21 Whatever we make to be our treasure will be sure to become the attraction of our heart. If we accumulate earthly riches, our hearts will by degrees be tied up in our money-bags; and, on the other hand, if our chief possessions are in heavenly things, our hearts will rise into the higher and more spiritual region. The position of the heart is sure to be affected by the place where the treasure is laid up. Shall sons of God give their hearts away to passing joys, which decay if they remain ours, and are liable at any moment to be taken from us? Matthew 6:22 , Matthew 6:23 A heart professedly set upon heaven but held in bondage to earth is like an eye blinded by the intrusion of a foreign substance, involving the unfortunate owner of it in darkness. There is no such thing as seeing s...

 Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for August 23 “Even as He is pure” (1 John 3:3) God is now aiming to reproduce in us the pattern which has already appeared in Jesus Christ, the Son of God. The Christian life is not an imitation of Christ, but a direct new creation in Christ, and the union with Christ is so complete that He imparts His own nature to us and lives His own life in us and then it is not an imitation, but simply the outgrowth of the nature implanted within. We live Christ-like because we have the Christ-life. God is not satisfied with anything less than perfection. He required that from His Son. He requires it from us, and He does not, in the process of grace, reduce the standard, but He brings us up to it. He does not let down the righteousness of the law, but He requires of us a righteousness that far exceeds the righteousness of the Scribes and Pharisees, and then He imparts it to us. He counts us righteous in sanctification, and He says of the new creation, “He t...

 Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for August 23 Tozer in the Morning "TOP SIDE OF THE SOUL" It is certainly a reality in our day that too few men and women are willing to keep the "top side" of their souls open to God and to His light from heaven. You may wonder about such expression as the "top side" of the soul, but I do think it is in line with Bible teaching, and certainly in line with all Christian experience. The heart and soul are open to God in some people's lives, but certainly not in others. We should be aware that man's forgiveness is not always like God's. When a man makes a mistake and has to be forgiven, the shadow may still hang over him among his fellows. But when God forgives, He begins the new page right away. Then when the devil runs up and says, "What about his past?" God replies, "What past? He has been forgiven!" Now, I think that kind of forgiveness and justification and acceptance with G...

 Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for August 23 “Love and Seek True Wisdom ” - Proverbs 8:17 Wisdom loves her lovers and seeks her seekers. He is already wise who seeks to be wise, and he has almost found wisdom who diligently seeks her. What is true of wisdom in general is specially true of wisdom embodied in our LORD Jesus. Him we are to love and to seek, and in return we shall enjoy His love and find Himself. Our business is to seek Jesus early in life. Happy are the young whose morning is spent with Jesus! It is never too soon to seek the LORD Jesus. Early seekers make certain finders. We should seek Him early by diligence. Thriving tradesmen are early risers, and thriving saints seek Jesus eagerly. Those who find Jesus to their enrichment give their hearts to seeking Him. We must seek Him first, and thus earliest. Above all things Jesus. Jesus first and nothing else even as a bad second. The blessing is that He will be found. He reveals Himself m...

 Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 23rd August 2026 August 23 2 Chronicles 34:27-28 27Because your heart was responsive and you humbled yourself before God when you heard what he spoke against this place and its people, and because you humbled yourself before me and tore your robes and wept in my presence, I have heard you, declares the LORD. 28Now I will gather you to your fathers, and you will be buried in peace. Your eyes will not see all the disaster I am going to bring on this place and on those who live here.'" So they took her answer back to the king. The son of Manasseh was evil and soon was assassinated. His son Josiah was put on the throne at the young age of eight. By the time he turned sixteen he began to seek the LORD. He purged the nation of idols and ordered the repair of the Temple. In the process the Book of the Law was found. Things had been so bad for so long that the priests did not even know where a copy of the Law could be found. When the Book of the Law wa...
