1 Chronicles 13:1-14:17; Ezekiel 14:1-15:8; John 5:1-23

Never man spake like this man. John 7:46

The most important words ever spoken came from the lips of our Saviour. He spoke to thousands at a time (Luke 9:14) but took great delight in conversing with individuals too (John 4:7). Storms were stilled by His word (Mark 4:39). The dead heard His voice and responded (John 11:43). At Calvary He expressed the full success of His earthly ministry when He cried out, “It is finished” (John 19:30). No man ever spoke like this Man. —John M. Clegg

Master, speak! Thy servant heareth,
Waiting for Thy gracious word,
Longing for Thy voice that cheereth,
Master, let it now be heard.  —Frances R. Havergal
