PRAYING TOGETHER AS A FAMILY
Whether we live or whether we die, we are to do everything as unto the Lord. The whole purpose of Christ's death and Resurrection was so that He could fulfil His role as Lord (both Lord of the dead and Lord of the living) in the lives of all who trust in His holy name. One of the main reasons that Christ died a cruel death on Calvary's Cross and rose again on the third day was so that He could give life to all who believe in His name. He would become the Lord of our 'new-life-in-Christ' that promises eternal life and life more abundantly. Throughout our lives, we should be His willing servants and devoted disciples. We should seek to do everything as unto the Lord, it was to this end that Christ died and lived again that He might be Lord both of the dead and of the living. Whatever we do in word and deed, action and attitude, mind and motive, may we do all unto the Lord. Whether we live or whether we die, let us do ALL to His praise and glory, for ever and ever. For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living. Our United Prayer:
Dear Lord Jesus, thank You for coming to earth to live a perfect life and to die a cruel death so that we might be saved by grace through faith in You. We pray that whether we live or whether we die we may do everything as unto You. To Your praise and glory, AMEN. The birth of Christianity is a well-documented historical fact that is grounded in Holy Scripture. Its members believe in the historical Cross of Christ, and have placed their faith in the sacrifice that He made on that Cross, which saves people from their sins. There were literal blood stains on the wooden Cross upon which our Savior hung. There was a literal tomb where the body was placed, and there was an empty grave where Christ once laid. But now He is risen, ascended, and glorified, and He has the power to save to the uttermost all who come to Him in faith. Resurrection means to rise from the dead, never again to die. Death has no more dominion over Christ, and He is the firstborn from the dead, paving the way for the bodily resurrection and everlasting life for all who believe in Him by grace through faith. It Is His Sacrificial Death And Resurrection In Which We Place Our FAITH, and those who have trusted Christ as Savior, have been given the Holy Spirit as God's guarantee. Let us have this confidence in Christ today, His resurrection identified Jesus of Nazareth as the Son of God. It gives power to our Christian life in this world and guarantees our future inheritance with Christ in heaven, to Whom be all praise and glory, through time and into eternity. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for seeing past the evil of death and bringing about Christ’s Resurrection. Thank You that we no longer need to fear death and hell, as death itself has been swallowed up in Christ's victory. Thank You that we have been placed in Christ. Show us more of Him, we pray, and may we participate in the fellowship of His sufferings and the power of His Resurrection. May Christ shine through our lives as we go out into the world and tell of the wonders of His grace. In Jesus' name we Pray, AMEN. Neither Jew nor Greek have the ability, credentials, or capability to save themselves, God Alone Has The Capacity To Save The Fallen. God alone has the power to redeem a race of sinners, and the only vehicle through Whom God Offers Salvation to Jew and Gentile alike, is by believing the gospel of Christ. There is no other name given among men whereby we must be saved. It is through believing on the gospel of Christ (which is the death, burial, and Resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ alone), that we are saved. In Him alone is there salvation to everyone who believes, the Jew first and also to the Greek. Throughout the book of Acts, we see this principle of "to the Jew first and also to the Greek," being fulfilled in Paul's ministry. But today, the gospel is to be preached to Jew and Gentile alike, for all have sinned, all fall short of the glory of God, and all need the gospel of Christ "which is the power of God unto salvation to everyone who believes on the Lord Jesus Christ." I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, then to the Greek. Our United Prayer:
Father, we pray that, like Paul, we will boldly proclaim the gospel of Christ to all with whom we come in contact. Only in Him is there life and light, hope and love. We know that the gospel of Christ is the power of God unto salvation, to all who believe on Him Who died and rose from the dead. To Him be all praise and glory, in Jesus Name We Pray, AMEN. One of the main messages that Paul was keen to get over to these unbelieving Gentiles in Athens, was that God, the Maker of heaven and earth, has fixed a day when He is going to judge the world in righteousness and that judgement, they were informed, would take place through a Man, Whom God Himself had appointed, a Man Who had been raised from the dead, and His Resurrection would serve as the as proof of His authenticity and authority to take on this judicial role as judge of all. How important to Preach The Word Of Truth and tell all who are dead in their trespasses and sins that God did not send His Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.. 'He who believes in Him is not judged; but he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. All who reject Christ's sacrificial death and God's offer of salvation, that final day of judgement is fast approaching, God has fixed a day in which the crucified and resurrected Jesus will judge the world in righteousness. For he has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the man he has appointed. He has given proof of this to everyone by raising him from the dead.” Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You that our sins were judged at the Cross and that there is now no condemnation for us because we are in Christ. But we realize that there are many that remain dead in their sins. We pray that You will use us to tell those that You place in our paths, that Christ died for their sins, that He was buried, and rose again, so that all who believe on Him will not perish, but have everlasting life. This we ask in Jesus' name, AMEN. Jesus had been teaching His disciples the principles and practice of righteousness in the life of a believer and the spiritual priorities that should govern our behaviour. He emphasized the importance of living our lives in dependence upon Him and charged us to live our life as unto the Lord and not for the applause or attention of others. Christians find it all too easy to pass judgement on another member of Christ's Body if their behavior or life-style does not reflect their own walk with Christ (or what they think it should look like), but none of us has the right to judge the motive or conscience of another believer. We cannot read the mind of another, nor can we correctly assess the motive behind their actions. And neither should we judge the value or otherwise of someone's service to the Lord, nor should we be judgmental if they have opinions or reservations that conflict with our own opinions and scruples. However, there are many areas in the Christian life where we have been given the right and authority to make judgements, which include disputes within a church body, the corrective role of elders in a congregation of believers, and especially in the area of doctrinal error. We are certainly called upon to differentiate between what is good and what is evil, we are not to have any connection with the destructive forces of evil, but to hold fast to that which is good. Let us read the Bible with the eye of faith, with an understanding heart, with godly discernment, and in its correct historical context, and let us apply it in our lives in spirit and in truth. Let us Flee From Any Form Of Unrighteous Judgement, hypocritical conclusions, sanctimonious reasonings, legalistic tendencies, and destructive criticisms, but let us hold fast to sound doctrine and seek to walk worthy before the Lord. “Do not judge, or you will be judged. Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, keep us, we pray, from hypocritical thoughts and unrighteous judgement of others. But please give us the wisdom and discernment we need to judge between that which is good and that which is evil. Keep us walking humbly before You, and help us to always consider the needs of others before our own. This we ask in Jesus' name, AMEN. |
