Daily Devotionals (May 1st): Jesus, Our Prophet, Priest, and King

“Jesus is an equal opportunity Prophet, Priest and King: He equips, strengthens, forgives, comforts, and brings into fruition the reality of sanctiﬁcation. Jesus can equip anyone—no matter how lost or broken—for godly living.” (p. 107) .

Reading: “He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in theLord.” —Psalm 40:2-3
