The Word - Daily Devotions

1) A Mirror (Jas 1:23, 24, 25).

It reflects the mind, holiness and righteousness of God and exposes the filthiness of men's sin.

2) A Sword (He 4:12, Ep 6:17)

Like a sword it pierces with equal efficacy on Satan, saints, and sinners

3) Water (Ep 5:25,26,27, Ps 42:1 Ps 119:9 Pr 25:25 Is 55:10 He 10:22 Re 22:17)

Like water it is cleansing, quenching, and refreshing.

4) A Lamp (Ps 119:105, Pr 6:23, 2Pe 1:10)

Like a lamp it shows us where we are, guides us to where we are to go and keeps us from falling off the

path.

5) A Planted Seed (1Pe 1:23, Jas 1:18, Mt 13:18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)

Once planted in a good heart, it brings forth life, growth, and fruit.

6) A Precious metal -

Gold (Ps 19:10, Ps 119:127),

Silver (Ps 12:6)

Like gold and silver it is precious, beautiful, and highly valued in God's eyes.

SATURDAY

7) Nourishing food -

Milk (1Pe 2:2),

Meat (He 5:14KJV),

Bread (Mt 4:4, Jn 6:51),

Honey (Ps 19:10, Ezekiel 3:1-3)

It is nourishing because of the strength it imparts and the growth it produces in one's Christlikeness.

SUNDAY

8) A Fire (Jer 20:8-9, Lk 24:32)

Like a fire it is purifying and consuming and bespeaks judgment.

9) A Hammer (Jer 23:29)

Jeremiah 23:29 (ESV)

29 Is not my word like fire, declares the LORD, and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?
