Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 31 of 365 Mightier Than the Mightiest, January 31 And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.— Isaiah 9:6 The wisdom of God, His power and His love are without a parallel. It is the divine guarantee that not one of even the straying sheep and lambs is overlooked, and not one left unsuccored. A golden chain—the mercy and compassion of divine power—is passed around every one of these imperiled souls. Then shall not the human agent co-operate with God? Shall he be...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 30 of 365 Chief Among Ten Thousand, January 30 And suddenly, a woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years came from behind and touched the hem of His garment.— Matthew 9:20 When you respond to the drawing of Christ, and join yourself to Him, you manifest saving faith. To talk of religious things in a casual way, to pray for spiritual blessings without real soul hunger and living faith, avails little. The wondering crowd that pressed close about Jesus realized no accession of vital power from the contact. But when the poor,...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 29 of 365 Perfect Model, January 29 For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps.— 1 Peter 2:21 Those who talk unbelief will have a little enthusiasm when the sky is bright, and everything encouraging; but when the battle goes hard, when we have to hope against hope, and urge our petitions to the throne of grace through deep darkness, then the unbelieving ones will talk of the good land of Canaan, but will make prominent the dangers to be encountered....

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 28 of 365 Divine Head, January 28 “Therefore by their fruits you will know them.”— Matthew 7:20 The work for this time is to appeal to the Christian’s mind as the most important work that can be done. It is the question of cultivating the Lord’s vineyard. In this vineyard every person has a lot and a place, which the Lord has assigned him. And the success of each depends on his individual relationship to the one Divine Head . The grace and love of our Lord Jesus Christ and His tender relationship to H...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 27 of 365 Holy One of Israel, January 27 “They will respect my son.”— Matthew 21:37 With a father’s heart, God bore with His people. He pleaded with them by mercies given and mercies withdrawn. Patiently He set their sins before them, and in forbearance waited for their acknowledgment. Prophets and messengers were sent to urge God’s claim upon the husbandmen; but instead of being welcomed, they were treated as enemies. The husbandmen persecuted and killed them. God sent still other messengers, but they ...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 26 of 365 Center of All Goodness, January 26 You are good, and do good; teach me Your statutes.— Psalm 119:68 In the humanity of Christ there are golden threads that bind the believing, trusting poor person to His own soul of infinite love. He is the great Physician. In our world He bore our infirmities and carried our burdens. He is the mighty Healer of all diseases. He was poor, and yet He was the center of all goodness , all blessings. He is a reservoir of power to all to consecrate their powers to the work of becoming sons...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 25 of 365 Divine Physician, January 25 “‘For I will restore health to you and heal you of your wounds,’ says the LORD.”— Jeremiah 30:17 Christ has all power in heaven and in earth. He is the Great Physician, upon whom we are to call when suffering from physical or spiritual disease. Over the winds and the waves and over men possessed with demons, He showed that He possessed absolute control. To Him have been given the keys of death and of hell. Principalities and powers were made subject to Him, even wh...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 24 of 365 Bright and Morning Star, January 24 Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.— Revelation 14:12 Mysteries into which angels desire to look, which prophets and kings and righteous men and women desired to understand, the remnant church will carry in messages from God to the world. The prophets prophesied of these things, and they longed to understand that which they foretold; but to them this privilege was not given.... The truths of the third angel...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 23 of 365 Great Remedy for Sin, January 23 “For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.”— John 3:17 Christ said to His disciples, “Ye are the light of the world.” As the sun goes forth in the heavens to fill the world with brightness, so must the followers of Jesus shed the light of truth upon those who are groping in the darkness of error and superstition. But Christ’s followers have no light of themselves. It is the light of He...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 22 of 365 Captain of the Lord’s Host, January 22 “The LORD will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace.”— Exodus 14:14 I think of the meditation of Christ and the promise, “I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you” ( John 14:18 ). The agency of the Holy Spirit is to combine with human effort and all heaven is engaged in the work of preparing a people for to stand in these last days. The end is near, and we want to keep the future world in view. The burden of my prayer is that the...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 21 of 365 All-Powerful Helper, January 21 Therefore, in all things He had to be made like His brethren, that He might be a merciful and faithful High Priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.— Hebrews 2:17 Wonderful—almost too wonderful for human beings to comprehend—is the Saviour’s sacrifice in our behalf, shadowed forth in all the sacrifices of the past, in all the services of the typical sanctuary. And this sacrifice was called for. When we realize that His suffe...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 20 of 365 Divine Voice, January 20 He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him.— John 1:11 Jesus came by the authority of God, bearing His image, fulfilling His word, and seeking His glory; yet He was not accepted by the leaders in Israel; but when others should come, assuming the character of Christ, but actuated by their own will and seeking their own glory, they would be received. And why? Because he who is seeking his own glory appeals to the desire for self-exaltation in others. To such appeals the Jews could resp...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 19 of 365 Bridegroom, January 19 Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the LORD is risen upon you.       — Isaiah 60:1 To those who go out to meet the Bridegroom is this message given. Christ is coming with power and great glory.

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 18 of 365 One That Is Mighty to Save, January 18 “The LORD your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.”       — Zephaniah 3:17 Now you may cling to your righteousness, and you may think that you have tried to do about right, and that, after all, you will be saved in doing this.

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 17 of 365 Heaven’s King, January 17 Knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things ... but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.— 1 Peter 1:18, 19 Jesus looked upon the innocent victims of sacrifice, and saw how the Jews had made these great convocations scenes of bloodshed and cruelty. In place of humble repentance of sin, they had multiplied the sacrifice of beasts, as if God could be honored by a heartless service. The priests and rulers had hardened their hearts...
