Morning
Hope maketh not ashamed. (Rom. 5:5) I am the Lord: … they shall not be ashamed that wait for me. (Isa. 49:23) Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is. (Jer. 17:7) Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee. Trust ye in the Lord for ever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength. (Isa. 26:3, 4) My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him. He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defense; I shall not be moved. (Psa. 62:5, 6) I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed. (2 Tim. 1:12) God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath: that by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us; which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil; whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus. (Heb. 6:17-20)

Evening
The offence of the cross. (Gal. 5:11) If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. (Matt. 16:24) Know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. (Jas. 4:4) We must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God. Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. (Acts. 14:22) Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner, and a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence. (1 Pet. 2:7, 8) God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world. (Gal. 6:14) I am crucified with Christ. (Gal. 2:20) They that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. (Gal. 5:24) If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us. (2 Tim 2:12)
