I first heard Daily Light referred to in missionary biographies, often the missionary testifying that the Scripture verses listed for the day perfectly met a need. I was thrilled to find a 1906 version of Daily Light for $2 at a used book table once! That copy is falling apart, but, thaskfully, the book has been reprinted since then, so I have a new copy. The man who compiled this devotional book was truly filled and led by the Spirit of God: I don’t know how many times the verses for the day have spoken to my heart — I mentioned a few in my posts about dealing with TM. I like to use it to get myself in gear for time in the Word, but on some days this may be the only time I have in the Word.

The verses listed for today are a good reminder — of what we were before we were saved, of God’s grace to cleanse and forgive, of how much He loves us:
Thou art all fair, my love; there is no spot

HE whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint. From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores: they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment.–We are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags.–I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing.

Ye are washed, . . . ye are sanctified, . . . ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.–The king’s daughter is all glorious within.–Perfect through my comeliness, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord GOD.

Let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us.

These are they which . . . have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.–A glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but . . . holy and without blemish.–Ye are complete in him.
