April 25

Morning

You shall call His name Jesus, for He will
save His people from their sins.

You know that He was manifested to take away our sins. § That we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness. § He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him.

He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed…  The Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all. § Thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer . . . that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nations. § He has appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.

Him God has exalted to His right hand to be Prince and Savior, to give repentance. § Through this Man is preached to you the forgiveness of sins; and by Him everyone who believes is justified from all things from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses. § Your sins are forgiven you for His name’s sake.

Matt. 1:21; 1 John 3:5; 1 Peter 2:24; Heb. 7:25; Isa. 53:5–6;
Luke 24:46–47; Heb. 9:26; Acts 5:31; 13:38–39; 1 John 2:12


Evening

Our Lord Jesus Christ . . . though He was rich,
yet for your sakes . . . became poor, that you
through His poverty might become rich.

For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell. • Who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, having become so much better than the angels, as He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. § Who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation.

Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.

All things are yours: whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas, or the world or life or death, or things present or things to come—all are yours. And you are Christ’s, and Christ is God’s.

2 Cor. 8:9; Col. 1:19; Heb. 1:3–4; Phil. 2:6–7; Matt. 8:20; 1 Cor. 3:21–23
