Devotional: October 16th

Morning:

Not slothful in business;

fervent in spirit; serving the Lord.

Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might;

for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom,

in the grave, whither thou goest. Whatsoever ye do, do it

heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; knowing that of the

Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye

serve the Lord Christ. Whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the

same shall he receive of the Lord.

I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day:

the night cometh, when no man can work. Wist ye not that I must

be about my Father’s business? The zeal of thine house hath

eaten me up.

Brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election

sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall. We desire

that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full

assurance of hope unto the end: that ye be not slothful, but

followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the

promises. So run, that ye may obtain.

Romans 12:11 Ecclesiastes 9:10 Col 3:23-24 Ephesians 6:8 John 9:4 Luke 2:49 John 2:17 2 Peter 1:10 Hebrews 6:11-12 1 Corinthians 9:24

Evening:

Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso

walketh wisely, he shall be delivered.

Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for

God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:

but every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust,

and enticed. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye

separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and

I will receive you.

Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plain of Jordan,

that it was well watered every where, even as the

garden of the LORD. Then Lot chose him all the plain of

Jordan; but the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners

before the LORD exceedingly.

The Lord delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy

conversation of the wicked. The Lord knoweth how to

deliver the godly out of temptations. Yea, he shall be holden

up: for God is able to make him stand.
