DAILY?READINGS: Numbers 5; Proverbs 2; Mark 14:27-52

The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it. Proverbs 10:22

The Lord is no man’s debtor, and those who honour Him, He will honour. What a wonderful promise! As we obey His Word, we will experience His Spirit’s leading and blessing. In the same way that air and water fill a container (the more water, the less air and vice versa), so more of the world’s ways in our lives will drive out the Spirit’s influence over our actions and attitudes. May God deliver us from the world’s influence and may we be filled with the Spirit.    —G. Frear

Oh, child of the kingdom,
From sin’s service cease:
Be filled with the Spirit,
With comfort and peace.
—Philip P. Bliss
