Daily Devotional 1 Year Bible EZE_19:8 Then the nations set against him on every side from the provinces, and spread their net over him: he was taken in their pit.
EZE_19:9 And they put him in ward in chains, and brought him to the king of Babylon: they brought him into holds, that his voice should no more be heard upon the mountains of Israel.
EZE_19:10 Thy mother [is] like a vine in thy blood, planted by the waters: she was fruitful and full of branches by reason of many waters.
EZE_19:11 And she had strong rods for the sceptres of them that bare rule, and her stature was exalted among the thick branches, and she appeared in her height with the multitude of her branches.
EZE_19:12 But she was plucked up in fury, she was cast down to the ground, and the east wind dried up her fruit: her strong rods were broken and withered; the fire consumed them.
EZE_19:13 And now she [is] planted in the wilderness, in a dry and thirsty ground.
EZE_19:14 And fire is gone out of a rod of her branches, [which] hath devoured her fruit, so that she hath no strong rod [to be] a sceptre to rule. This [is] a lamentation, and shall be for a lamentation.
EZE_20:1 And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth [month], the tenth [day] of the month, [that] certain of the elders of Israel came to inquire of the LORD, and sat before me.
EZE_20:2 Then came the word of the LORD unto me, saying,
EZE_20:3 Son of man, speak unto the elders of Israel, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Are ye come to inquire of me? [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will not be inquired of by you.
EZE_20:4 Wilt thou judge them, son of man, wilt thou judge [them]? cause them to know the abominations of their fathers:
EZE_20:5 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day when I chose Israel, and lifted up mine hand unto the seed of the house of Jacob, and made myself known unto them in the land of Egypt, when I lifted up mine hand unto them, saying, I [am] the LORD your God;
EZE_20:6 In the day [that] I lifted up mine hand unto them, to bring them forth of the land of Egypt into a land that I had espied for them, flowing with milk and honey, which [is] the glory of all lands:
EZE_20:7 Then said I unto them, Cast ye away every man the abominations of his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt: I [am] the LORD your God.
EZE_20:8 But they rebelled against me, and would not hearken unto me: they did not every man cast away the abominations of their eyes, neither did they forsake the idols of Egypt: then I said, I will pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.
EZE_20:9 But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be polluted before the heathen, among whom they [were], in whose sight I made myself known unto them, in bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt.
EZE_20:10 Wherefore I caused them to go forth out of the land of Egypt, and brought them into the wilderness.
EZE_20:11 And I gave them my statutes, and showed them my judgments, which [if] a man do, he shall even live in them.
EZE_20:12 Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I [am] the LORD that sanctify them.
EZE_20:13 But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness: they walked not in my statutes, and they despised my judgments, which [if] a man do, he shall even live in them; and my sabbaths they greatly polluted: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness, to consume them.
EZE_20:14 But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be polluted before the heathen, in whose sight I brought them out.
EZE_20:15 Yet also I lifted up my hand unto them in the wilderness, that I would not bring them into the land which I had given [them], flowing with milk and honey, which [is] the glory of all lands;
EZE_20:16 Because they despised my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, but polluted my sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols.
EZE_20:17 Nevertheless mine eye spared them from destroying them, neither did I make an end of them in the wilderness.
EZE_20:18 But I said unto their children in the wilderness, Walk ye not in the statutes of your fathers, neither observe their judgments, nor defile yourselves with their idols:
EZE_20:19 I [am] the LORD your God; walk in my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them;
EZE_20:20 And hallow my sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between me and you, that ye may know that I [am] the LORD your God.
EZE_20:21 Notwithstanding the children rebelled against me: they walked not in my statutes, neither kept my judgments to do them, which [if] a man do, he shall even live in them; they polluted my sabbaths: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the wilderness.
EZE_20:22 Nevertheless I withdrew mine hand, and wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be polluted in the sight of the heathen, in whose sight I brought them forth.
EZE_20:23 I lifted up mine hand unto them also in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the heathen, and disperse them through the countries;
EZE_20:24 Because they had not executed my judgments, but had despised my statutes, and had polluted my sabbaths, and their eyes were after their fathers' idols.
EZE_20:25 Wherefore I gave them also statutes [that were] not good, and judgments whereby they should not live;
EZE_20:26 And I polluted them in their own gifts, in that they caused to pass through [the fire] all that openeth the womb, that I might make them desolate, to the end that they might know that I [am] the LORD.
EZE_20:27 Therefore, son of man, speak unto the house of Israel, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Yet in this your fathers have blasphemed me, in that they have committed a trespass against me.
EZE_20:28 [For] when I had brought them into the land, [for] the which I lifted up mine hand to give it to them, then they saw every high hill, and all the thick trees, and they offered there their sacrifices, and there they presented the provocation of their offering: there also they made their sweet savour, and poured out there their drink offerings.
EZE_20:29 Then I said unto them, What [is] the high place whereunto ye go? And the name thereof is called Bamah unto this day.
EZE_20:30 Wherefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Are ye polluted after the manner of your fathers? and commit ye whoredom after their abominations?
EZE_20:31 For when ye offer your gifts, when ye make your sons to pass through the fire, ye pollute yourselves with all your idols, even unto this day: and shall I be inquired of by you, O house of Israel? [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will not be inquired of by you.
EZE_20:32 And that which cometh into your mind shall not be at all, that ye say, We will be as the heathen, as the families of the countries, to serve wood and stone.
EZE_20:33 [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely with a mighty hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out, will I rule over you:
EZE_20:34 And I will bring you out from the people, and will gather you out of the countries wherein ye are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out.
EZE_20:35 And I will bring you into the wilderness of the people, and there will I plead with you face to face.
EZE_20:36 Like as I pleaded with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so will I plead with you, saith the Lord GOD.
EZE_20:37 And I will cause you to pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant:
EZE_20:38 And I will purge out from among you the rebels, and them that transgress against me: I will bring them forth out of the country where they sojourn, and they shall not enter into the land of Israel: and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
EZE_20:39 As for you, O house of Israel, thus saith the Lord GOD; Go ye, serve ye every one his idols, and hereafter [also], if ye will not hearken unto me: but pollute ye my holy name no more with your gifts, and with your idols.
EZE_20:40 For in mine holy mountain, in the mountain of the height of Israel, saith the Lord GOD, there shall all the house of Israel, all of them in the land, serve me: there will I accept them, and there will I require your offerings, and the firstfruits of your oblations, with all your holy things.
HEB_10:3 But in those [sacrifices there is] a remembrance again [made] of sins every year.
HEB_10:4 For [it is] not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.
HEB_10:5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:
HEB_10:6 In burntofferings and [sacrifices] for sin thou hast had no pleasure.
HEB_10:7 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.
HEB_10:8 Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and [offering] for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure [therein]; which are offered by the law;
HEB_10:9 Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.
HEB_10:10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once [for all].
HEB_10:11 And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins:
HEB_10:12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;
HEB_10:13 From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.
HEB_10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.
HEB_10:15 [Whereof] the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,
HEB_10:16 This [is] the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
HEB_10:17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.
HEB_10:18 Now where remission of these [is, there is] no more offering for sin.
HEB_10:19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,
HEB_10:20 By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
HEB_10:21 And [having] an high priest over the house of God;
HEB_10:22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
HEB_10:23 Let us hold fast the profession of [our] faith without wavering; (for he [is] faithful that promised;)
HEB_10:24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
HEB_10:25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some [is]; but exhorting [one another]: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
HEB_10:26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
HEB_10:27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
HEB_10:28 He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
HEB_10:29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?

PSA_123:1 A Song of degrees. Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens.
PSA_123:2 Behold, as the eyes of servants [look] unto the hand of their masters, [and] as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes [wait] upon the LORD our God, until that he have mercy upon us.
PSA_123:3 Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
PRO_28:6 Better [is] the poor that walketh in his uprightness, than [he that is] perverse [in his] ways, though he [be] rich.
PRO_28:7 Whoso keepeth the law [is] a wise son: but he that is a companion of riotous [men] shameth his father.
JOHJ_13:35 By this shall all [men] know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
JOHJ_13:36 Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me afterwards.
JOHJ_13:38 Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.
JOHJ_14:1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
JOHJ_14:2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if [it were] not [so], I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
JOHJ_14:3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, [there] ye may be also.
