Instructions

These are short devotional thoughts to accompany a daily Bible reading. The readings are arranged for a chronological reading of the scriptures. I am reading the Today's New International Version. However, it should work with any version. It is my prayer that it will encourage reading of God's word, and inculcating the teachings into daily living. May His richest blessings be with you!

January 11

Job 29-31
Job made a covenant with himself to not look upon a virgin with lust in his heart.  Oh how much better would if our young men would make that same covenant!  Marriages would last, and women would have greater security.  Covenant is a sacred promise providing strength and safety.   A man with the integrity to make and keep such a covenant is a true man of steel!  Our metal is present only through the power of our kept covenant.  As a God of covenant, you have made us in your image, giving us a heart to respect and honor covenant.  May we ever cherish this precious gift, through Jesus our Lord!
