Philippians 2 : 3
KJV


1 If there be therefore any consolation in Christ,
if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit,
if any bowels and mercies,
2 Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded,
having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.
3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory;
but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
4 Look not every man on his own things,
but every man also on the things of others.
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form of God,
thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7 But made himself of no reputation,
and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself,
and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him,
and given him a name which is above every name:
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
12 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.
13 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed,
not as in my presence only,
but now much more in my absence,
work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.






Today's Prayer...


Lord our God,

We thank You that You have redeemed us
and that we may feel united with Your holy ones,
those in heaven and those on earth who are
gathered around Jesus Christ,
a people growing in number and strength from year to year.
We thank You that we too belong to them,
and we ask You to keep our hearts aware of this unity
so that we may be joyful,
redeemed people who find ever greater deliverance,
full of praise and thanks,
full of certainty and joy.
Grant this to us, for we are Your people,
born out of your power as Savior and
gathered for the sake of Your kingdom.
Guard your gifts and your powers within us.
Continue your redemption of the whole world
until joy floods through our whole being
and we can praise You for the life You have
already given us here on earth."


In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name

Amen
