Good evening, brethren. 1. Evening devotional for today. ED.i. *DAILY WALK WITH CHRIST* (COCIN DEVOTIONAL) *DATE:* MONDAY 8TH JUNE, 2026 *SUB-THEME:* EXAMPLES OF GOD'S AMAZING GRACE. *TOPIC:* CHILDREN OF ISRAEL. *TEXT:* NUMBERS 14:1-5, 20. 1. That night all the members of the community raised their voices and wept aloud. 2. All the Israelites grumbled against Moses and Aaron, and the whole assembly said to them, “If only we had died in Egypt! Or in this wilderness! 3. Why is the Lord bringing us to this land only to let us fall by the sword? Our wives and children will be taken as plunder. Wouldn’t it be better for us to go back to Egypt?” 4. And they said to each other, “We should choose a leader and go back to Egypt.” 5. Then Moses and Aaron fell facedown in front of the whole Israelite assembly gathered there. 20. The Lord replied, “I have forgiven them, as you asked. *TOPIC:* CHILDREN OF ISRAEL. *THE MESSAGE:* This text reveals the sad reality of Israel's rebellion against God after their wondrous deliverance. They grumbled against Moses and Aaron, and wished they had died in Egypt rather than for the Lord to have brought them out to die in the desert. Therefore, they preferred to go back to Egypt after a leader of their choice. They preferred slavery to freedom. And they seem to suggest that God's choice of a leader was faulty. These people could have enjoyed God's unending supplies, but for their rebellion. God forgave them as Moses and Aaron interceded on their behalf. Truly, God's Grace towards His children is inexhaustible and unfathomable. He forgives over and over again. Do you grumble and rebel against your leaders? Doing so may cost you God's blessings. So watch out! *REFLECTION:* You cannot exhaust God's Grace. *PRAYER:* Lord, forgive my complaints and grumblings. Amen. *MEMORY VERSE FOR THE MONTH:* JOHN 1:16. "From the fullness of His grace we have all received one blessing after another." *TODAY'S BIBLE READING PLAN:* PSALM 40-41. ED.ii.

We are children of the day, yet we live in a world of darkness, sin and lawlessness.. and so we are to be sober, clear-headed and wise in our Christian walk and witness. We are to be sober and circumspect as we work, watch and wait for the Lord’s return. Realistically Alive This doesn’t mean living with a long face or putting on an illusion of piousness, but rather we are to be realistically alive and living in prepared anticipation. We are to be calm and collected in spirit but not lulled into a false sense of security. We are to be temperate in mind, dispassionate in heart and vigilant in soul. We are children of light; children of the day – and so we are to be clothed in Christ. Three Preeminent Graces There are three preeminent graces, which form a believers’ protective covering. Together they shine as shafts of light when Christ is seated on the throne of the soul.. for when we are covered with Christ we have put on faith and hope and love. Protective Breastplate Both faith and love unite as one, for faith works through love – while love feeds faith. This protective breastplate of faith and love is our covering of Christ’s righteousness: for the heart that abides in Christ is the one that stands firm in the day of trouble. Spiritual Fruit Faith is the spiritual fruit of patient endurance: as seeing Him who is invisible. Love is the root that bears all things, believes all things, hopes and endures all things. The former enables the patient tenacity of trusting faith in Christ Jesus. The latter excites the diligent works of a growing love for the Jesus Christ, and they intertwine as His banner of love, over those that trust in His name. Protective Peace The third grace of this harmonious trio of protective peace – is the hope of salvation. The helmet of hope should protect our thoughts and flood through our minds, for hope is that sure anticipation of the glory of Christ that is to be fully revealed. The breastplate of faith and love covers our heart, enfolding us in His righteousness. The helmet of the hope of our salvation protects our minds from the darkness of this age. All three unite in our future promise in Christ, when we shall see Him as He is – for all are founded in the assured anticipation of the glory that shall be revealed. Clothed in Christ We belong to the day, for we are children of light… let us, therefore.. be sober, clearheaded, watchful and wise. Let us put on the breastplate of faith and love, for we are covered in His righteousness, and for a helmet – let us wear the hope of eternal salvation in Him.

Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou [art] God. ⏤ Psalm 90:1-2 God does nothing but by prayer, and everything with it. ⏤ John Wesley Heavenly Father, whose favor is life, whose lovingkindness is better than life, we thank You for all the blessings You have shown to us. Through another day, You have led us. Goodness and mercy have followed us all the way. We enter now into the quiet and rest of the evening, and Your banner over us is love. We hide in the shadow of Your wings. We remember before You this evening all the interests of our home. We thank You for all that home means to us of love and shelter. Bless us in our family life, making it more and more like the heavenly life. Lord, You have been our dwelling place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth, or You had formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God. A thousand years in Your sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night. We are but creatures of a moment, dying and passing away. We are like the grass which in the morning flourishes and grows up, and in the evening is cut down and withers. We spend our years as a tale that is told. You have set our iniquities before You, our secret sins in the light of Your countenance. So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. Oh, satisfy us early with Your mercy, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days. Let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us, and establish the work of our hands upon us. We ask all these things in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen. https://www.youdevotion.com/daily-prayer/miller/64/evening #taptapstudio #youdevotion.
