Sunday Morning Reflections_September 4, 2011

The Word of God for wisdom:

Proverbs 4:14-15 (HCSB)
14 Don't set foot on the path of the wicked; don't proceed in the way of evil ones. 15 Avoid it; don't travel on it. Turn away from it, and pass it by.

The Word of God for inspiration:

Psalm 31:7 (NLT)
I will be glad and rejoice in your unfailing love, for you have seen my troubles, and you care about the anguish of my soul.

The Word of God for encouragement:

1 Peter 3:8-9 (MSG)
8 Summing up: Be agreeable, be sympathetic, be loving, be compassionate, be humble. 9 That goes for all of you, no exceptions. No retaliation. No sharp-tongued sarcasm. Instead, bless—that's your job, to bless. You'll be a blessing and also get a blessing.

My prayer:

Our Father in heaven, my dear Father, I am so grateful for your unfailing love. Father, I am so thankful that you are a God who knows my needs, sees my needs, and meets my needs. Father, I pray that you would work out in me that same unfailing love for others.

 Father, I thank you that the capacity to love others is already present in me because you have poured out into my heart your love through the Holy Spirit. Father, may others know that I belong to you by my unfailing love for you and others.

Romans 5:5 (AMP)
Such hope never disappoints or deludes or shames us, for God's love has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit Who has been given to us.

Romans 8:9 (AMP)
But you are not living the life of the flesh, you are living the life of the Spirit, if the [Holy] Spirit of God [really] dwells within you [directs and controls you]. But if anyone does not possess the [Holy] Spirit of Christ, he is none of His [he does not belong to Christ, is not truly a child of God].
