Good day to ya everyone. As I sit here in my secret place I’m convicted by the Holy Spirit for murmuring and complaining. As good as the Lord is to all of us who call our selves Christians, we still complain because we forget whose we are. We have to keep Him first always, and focus on serving others, that way we will keep our big mouths shut when it comes to the complaint department. TODAY’S PRAYER Father, I come before you this morning on behalf of my brothers and sisters in Christ and me to ask your forgiveness. We sometimes open our mouths as we get caught up in the injustices that may be happening to us and around and say things that are harmful to others. We should be lifting these things up in prayer and leaving them in Your hands. Help us to recover our focus and keep You in the forefront so that You may be glorified in every portion of our lives. I present this to You in the wonderful name of Jesus, Amen and Amen. Let’s eat. SHINE BRIGHTLY FOR CHRIST Philippians 2:12-18 Dear friends, you always followed my instructions when I was with you. And now that I am away, it is even more important. Work hard to show the results of your salvation, obeying God with deep reverence and fear. For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him. Do everything without complaining and arguing, so that no one can criticize you. Live clean, innocent lives as children of God, shining like bright lights in a world full of crooked and perverse people. Hold firmly to the word of life; then, on the day of Christ’s return, I will be proud that I did not run the race in vain and that my work was not useless. But I will rejoice even if I lose my life, pouring it out like a liquid offering to God, just like your faithful service is an offering to God. And I want all of you to share that joy. Yes, you should rejoice, and I will share your joy. QUOTE OF THE DAY Contrition, repentance, acknowledgement of personal responsibility and sorrow over sin should never include massive self-hatred and total self-rejection. God’s conviction points to a specific sin, it is sharp and accurate, going straight to the point where repentance is needed. Truly understanding this principle will lead you into freedom from your past so you can serve God and His people without the fetters of constantly looking behind.
