Today's devotion - To live is the gospel.
40 Days Fasting and prayer
Today's devotion is taken from:
PHILIPPIANS 1:15-18 | Some indeed preach Christ from envy and rivalry, but others from good will. 16 The latter do it out of love, knowing that I am put here for the defense of the gospel. 17 The former proclaim Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely but thinking to afflict me in my imprisonment. 18 What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed, and in that I rejoice.
The devotion was indeed another soul searching Word for me. The writer asked us to do the following:
"Today, in silence and solitude, let’s search our hearts deep within and respond earnestly in prayer:
- May we have the integrity and humility never to self-brand, self- promote, and compete for popularity.
- May we have the sanity and maturity never to attack one another, least of all before the public eye.
- May we have the grace and magnanimity to overlook each other’s flaws and foibles.
- May we have the childlike capacity to believe and to see that God is still at work in spite of us."
Phew...powereful
