Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 187 of 374 Omega of Revelation, June 27 When I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. But He laid His right hand on me, saying to me, “Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last.”— Revelation 1:17 The very same Jesus who has given us the Sabbath, and has directed us how to keep it holy, is the Alpha of Genesis, and carries us step by step through the ages, through the incarnation, through His offering of Himself as a living sacrifice for the redemption of a fallen world. He was tried, but was not condemned, becaus...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 185 of 373 Head Over All, June 26 Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved, for You are my praise.— Jeremiah 17:14 The medical missionary work has never been presented to me in any other way than as bearing the same relation to the work as a whole as the arm does to the body. The gospel ministry is an organization for the proclamation of the truth and the carrying forward of the work for sick and well. This is the body, the medical missionary work is the arm, and Christ is the head over all . Thus ...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 184 of 373 Lowly Teacher, June 25 And He taught in their synagogues, being glorified by all.— Luke 4:15 In the interview with Nicodemus, Jesus unfolded the plan of salvation, and His mission to the world. In none of His subsequent discourses did He explain so fully, step by step, the work necessary to be done in the hearts of all who would inherit the kingdom of heaven. At the very beginning of His ministry He opened the truth to a member of the Sanhedrin, to the mind that was most receptive, and to an appointed teacher of the...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 183 of 373 Judge of All the Earth, June 24 That He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.— Ephesians 5:27 The deepest interest manifested among human beings in the decisions of earthly tribunals but faintly represents the interest evinced in the heavenly courts when the names entered in the book of life come up in review before the Judge of all the earth . The divine Intercessor presents the plea that all who have overcome t...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 182 of 373 Light, June 23 The LORD is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid?       — Psalm 27:1 Those who honor God and keep His commandments are subject to the accusations of Satan. The enemy works with all his energy to lead persons into sin. Then he pleads that on account of their past sins, he should be allowed to exercise his hellish cruelty on them as his own subjects. Of this work Zechariah has written. “And he shewed me Joshua t...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 181 of 373 Divine Leader, June 22 Your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, “This is the way, walk in it.”— Isaiah 30:21 Those who undertake to carry forward the work in their own strength will certainly fail. Education alone will not fit a person for a place in the work, will not enable him to obtain a knowledge of God. Hear what Paul has to say on this matter: “For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect....

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 180 of 373 True Rock, June 21 For they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them, and that Rock was Christ.— 1 Corinthians 10:4 From the smitten rock in Horeb first flowed the living stream that refreshed Israel in the desert. During all their wanderings, wherever the need existed, they were supplied with water by a miracle of God’s mercy. The water did not, however, continue to flow from Horeb. Wherever in their journeyings they wanted water, there from the clefts of the rock it gushed out beside their encampment....

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 179 of 373 Divine Pilot, June 20 “Who can this be, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?”— Matthew 8:27 Every ship sailing the sea of life needs to have the divine Pilot on board; but when storms arise, when tempests threaten, many persons push their Pilot overboard, and commit their bark into the hand of finite humans, or try to steer it themselves. Then disaster and wreckage generally follow, and the Pilot is blamed for running them into such dangerous waters. Do not commit yourselves into the keeping of peo...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 178 of 373 Great Source of Illumination, June 19 That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world.— John 1:9 No other light ever has shone or ever will shine upon fallen humanity save that which emanates from Christ. Jesus, the Saviour, is the only light that can illuminate the darkness of a world lying in sin. Of Christ it is written, “In Him was life; and the life was the light of men” ( John 1:4 ). It was by receiving of His life that His disciples could become light bearers. The life...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 177 of 373 Ideal of All Truth, June 18 And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us an understanding, that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.— 1 John 5:20 Christ, the great Medical Missionary, came to our world as the ideal of all truth . Truth never languished on His lips, never suffered in His hands. Words of truth fell from His lips with the freshness and power of a new revelation. He unfolded the mysteries of the kingdom o...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 176 of 373 Originator, June 17 And beginning at Moses and all the Prophets, He expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself.— Luke 24:27 Christ in His teaching presented old truths of which He Himself was the originator , truths which He had spoken through patriarchs and prophets; but He now shed upon them a new light. How different appeared their meaning! A flood of light and spirituality was brought in by His explanation. And He promised that the Holy Spirit should enlighten the disciples, that the w...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 175 of 373 Dying Victim, June 16 “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive power and riches and wisdom, and strength and honor and glory and blessing!”— Revelation 5:12 Christ was the foundation of the whole Jewish economy. The death of Abel was in consequence of Cain’s refusing to accept God’s plan in the school of obedience to be saved by the blood of Jesus Christ typified by the sacrificial offerings pointing to Christ. Cain refused the shedding of blood which symbolized the blood of Christ to be ...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 174 of 373 Strong and Mighty Deliverer, June 15 You are my hiding place; You shall preserve me from trouble; You shall surround me with songs of deliverance.— Psalm 32:7 I have been shown that we must be guarded on every side and perseveringly resist the insinuations and devices of Satan. He has transformed himself into an angel of light and is deceiving thousands and leading them captive. The advantage he takes of the science of the human mind, is tremendous. Here, serpent-like, he imperceptibly creeps in to corrupt the work ...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 173 of 373 Man of Calvary, June 14 “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.”— Luke 9:23 In order to be purified and to remain pure, Seventh-day Adventists must have the Holy Spirit in their hearts and in their homes. The Lord has given me light that when the Israel of today humble themselves before Him, and cleanse the soul-temple from all defilement, He will hear their prayers in behalf of the sick and will bless in the use of His remedies for disease. ...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 172 of 373 Hope of Israel, June 13 “Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come from God; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him.”— John 3:2 If there is nothing more in all the Scriptures which point out definitely the way to heaven, we have it here in these words. [ John 3:1-16 .] They tell us what conversion is. They tell us what we must do in order to be saved. And, my friends, I want to tell you that this strikes directly at the root of the surface work in the religious world. It strike...
