My Cup Overflows

Morning

“You shall make a plate of pure gold and engrave on it, like the engraving of a signet, ‘Holy to the Lord.’”

The holiness without which no one will see the Lord.—“God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”—We have all become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous deeds are like a polluted garment.—“Among those who are near me I will be sanctified, and before all the people I will be glorified.”

“This is the law of the temple: the whole territory on the top of the mountain all around shall be most holy.”—Holiness befits your house, O Lord, forevermore.

“For their sake I consecrate myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth.”—Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us . . . with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Evening

My cup overflows.

Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him! Oh, fear the Lord, you his saints, for those who fear him have no lack! The young lions suffer want and hunger; but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.—His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.

The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup; you hold my lot. The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.—Whether . . . the world or life or death or the present or the future—all are yours.—Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places.

I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content.—Now there is great gain in godliness with contentment.—My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
