Morning Romans 3:28
Noon Paslms 5
Evening Romans 5:1
Faith in Christ involves a personal relationship with the Redeemer; it signifies love and gratitude to the Savior in response for his love towards us the sinners. It is admiration for Jesus because of all that He is, it is a deep and sincere desire to know Him better and to become who He is. Without such faith there can be no justification (Galatians 2:16). Justification cannot be earned; it can only be received by faith in Christ's atoning sacrifice. To be justified without works means to be justified without there being in ourselves anything that deserves justification. But this should not be construed to mean that the person justified by faith is freed from the demands of the law or from doing good works. The faith that justifies also produces obedience. We do not obey God to earn his favor, our actions and works respond to the love He has for us, not the need for Him to accept us because we have already been accepted. God says in Romans 5: 8 "But God shows his love for us, in that, while we were still sinners, Christ died for us." When we least deserved acceptance, Christ took our place and made us worthy (Isaiah 53: 5).
God's justification is through faith in Jesus Christ, for all who believe in Him.

Morning Romans 3:28
Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law.
Noon Paslms 5
1 Give ear to my words, O Lord, consider my meditation.
2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray.
3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.
4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.
5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the Lord will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.
7 But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.
8 Lead me, O Lord, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.
9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.
10 Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.
11 But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.
12 For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.
Evening Romans 5:1
Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
