Romans 14:16-19

Thursday, July 1st, 2010

Therefore do not let your good be spoken of as evil; for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men.

Therefore let us pursue the things which make for peace and the things by which one may edify another.

Romans 14:16-19
Have an awesome fourth of July weekend!

2 Corinthians 6:3-10

Tuesday, April 13th, 2010

Tuesday, April 13, 2010

A must-read for ministry people! Paul said:

We give no offense in anything, that our ministry may not be blamed. But in all things we commend ourselves as ministers of God:

in much patience,
in tribulations,
in needs,
in distresses,
in stripes,
in imprisonments,
in tumults,
in labors,
in sleeplessness,
in fastings;

by purity,
by knowledge,
by longsuffering,
by kindness,
by the Holy Spirit,
by sincere love,
by the word of truth,
by the power of God,
by the armor of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,
by honor and dishonor
by evil report and good report;
as deceivers, and yet true;
as unknown, and yet well known;
as dying,

and behold we live; as chastened, and yet not killed; as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing;
as poor, yet making many rich;
as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.

2 Corinthians 6:3-10
Have an unparalleled Tuesday!

Thus says the Lord: “Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, Let not the mighty man glory in his might, Nor let the rich man glory in his riches;

For in these I delight,” says the Lord.

Isaiah 61:10-11

Friday, January 29th, 2010

I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, My soul shall be joyful in my God; For He has clothed me with the garments of salvation, He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, As a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments, And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.

For as the earth brings forth its bud, As the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring forth, So the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.

Isaiah 61:10-11

Romans 6:11-13

Monday, August 17th, 2009

Likewise [like Christ] you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.

And do not present your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.

Ephesians 6:13-18

Thursday, October 30th, 2008

Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Stand therefore,

having girded your waist with truth,
having put on the breastplate of righteousness,
and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.

And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;

praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints—

Ephesians 6:13-18
