DAILY?READINGS: Gen. 27; Job 34-35; Matt. 14:13-36
When thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. Matthew 6:6
Interesting descriptions are often used by the Holy Spirit to state truths to be enjoyed by God’s people. One such is the word “closet.” In ancient times, a closet was where treasures were stored. Into such a place, we are invited daily to receive from the “closet” the treasures with which our Lord wishes to bless us. May we enter the “closet” today, and receive His provisions of love. —Arnot P. McIntee
My soul, ask what thou wilt, thou canst not be too bold:
Since His own blood for thee was spilt, what else can He with hold?—John Newton
