Morning:

Let him take hold of my strength, that he may make

peace with me; and he shall make peace with me.

I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD,

thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

There is no peace, saith the LORD, unto the wicked.

In Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh

by the blood of Christ. For he is our peace.

It pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;

and, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to

reconcile all things unto himself. Christ Jesus: whom God hath

set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to

declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are

past, . . . that he might be just, and the justifier of him

which believeth in Jesus. If we confess our sins, he is

faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us

from all unrighteousness.

Trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH is

everlasting strength.

Isaiah 27:5 Jeremiah 29:11 Isaiah 48:22 Ephesians 2:13-14 Colossians 1:19-20 Romans 3:24-26 1 John 1:9 Isaiah 26:4

Evening:

God hath given to us eternal life,

and this life is in his Son.

As the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the

Son to have life in himself. For as the Father raiseth up the

dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he

will.

I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me,

though he were dead, yet shall he live: and whosoever liveth and

believeth in me shall never die. I am the good shepherd: the

good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. I lay down my

life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from me, but

I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have

power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my

Father. No man cometh unto the Father, but by me. He that hath

the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath

not life. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in

God. When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye

also appear with him in glory.
