Daily Prayer for the Lord's Day, September 1, 2024: Philippians 1:12-14

Prayer: We praise your name, our most merciful and faithful Father, because it pleased you to crush your only beloved Son for our sake. He gladly came to this sin-wrecked world to save sin-wrecked people. He came that he might rescue us from our miserable condition and give us hope for tomorrow. It was his joy to go to the cruel cross of suffering and shame to advance your glory and the hope of…

18th Psalm 91:14 - 16

1 Peter 4:12 - 19 Hard Sell Trials and Persecution 1 Peter 1:1, 2

If you don't suffer grief, then you have died before those who love and care for you.

If you don't factor suffering into your world view you are ill prepared to live in this world. Christians will suffer and your shouldn't be surprised when it happens. Any teachings to the contrary are false.

vs 13

Philippians 1:29

The people who are persecuting you see something of Jesus in you. vs 14

Matthew 5:3 - 12

We recieve the ministry of the Holy Spirit when we are suffering.

vs 15 - 18

vs 19 Commit to God.

If you don't factor in eternity you are ill prepared for suffering.

The Life of Faith Is Not a Solo Sport

27 Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of you that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel, 28 and not frightened in anything by your opponents. This is a clear sign to them of their destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God. 29 For it…

The Priorities of the Gospel and Unity

Philippians 1.12-30 Two priorities for Paul are clear: proclaiming the gospel and unity of the body. The first might be done out of mixed motives, but the second requires oneness of spirit and mind…an attitude of togetherness. As individuals, sharing the gospel…telling our story, investing our mina…should be a motivating, a driving factor in our lives. We weren’t saved to go to heaven…we were…

How Can the World Change? (Philippians 1:21-30)

Tears and celebration mix in a sacred alchemy producing a kind of care which transcends description.

For to me, living is Christ and dying is gain. If I am to live in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me, yet I cannot say which I will choose. I am hard pressed between the two: my desire is to depart and be with Christ, for that is far better, but to remain in the flesh is more necessary for you. Since I am convinced of this, I know that I will remain and continue with all of you for your…

I thank my God in all my remembrance of you,

“I am going to prepare a place for you!” (John MacDuff, "The Words of Jesus")

"I am going to prepare a place for you! When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with Me where I am." John 14:2-3

What a wondrous thought!

Jesus is now busied in Heaven in His people's behalf! He can find no abode in all His wide dominions, befitting as a permanent dwelling for His ransomed ones.

He says, "I will make a new heavens and a new earth. I will found a special kingdom. I will rear eternal mansions expressly for those I have redeemed with my blood!"

Orphaned pilgrims, dry your tears! Soon the sighs of a groaning and burdened creation will be heard no more. Soon He will come again, to receive those who followed Him in His cross, to be everlasting partakers with Him in His crown!”

“For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain!” Philippians 1:21

“I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far!” Philippians 1:23

Not mindless pain. It is suffering for the sake of Christ.

It is for His Name's sake.

By nature we are self centred, but by focusing on God we can stand the world's waves.

God's example to you is Jesus.

He committed no sin. He was authentic, forgiving, even on the Cross. He entrusted himself to Him who judges justly.

A Matter of Life or Death

18 Yes, and I will rejoice, 19 for I know that through your prayers and the help of the Spirit of Jesus Christ this will turn out for my deliverance, 20 as it is my eager expectation and hope that I will not be at all ashamed, but that with full courage now as always Christ will be honored in my body, whether by life or by death. 21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. 22 If I am to…
