No to Strife
No to Vainglory

Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.

Philippians 2:3

Reading:

Philippians 2:1-13

Do I know how to be likeminded with others in my congregation?

Just how much do I want to be likeminded with them?

Have I kept (and do I keep) self set aside and crucified?

How much do I look out for the good and well-being of others?

Am I making any progress at being a servant to others?

When was the last time I humbled myself as Jesus would have?

What is the state of my knees before Christ?

Do I want to do the good pleasure of God?

[The Scriptures say in Philippians 2:8 -- He humbled himself, and became obedient]
from Philippians 2:8

Peace. Always.

Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace always by all means. The Lord be with you all.

2 Thessalonians 3:16

Reading:

2 Thessalonians 3

Do I want people to pray this for me: “that the word of the Lord may have free course”?

Where do I find my strength?

What kind of confidence do others have in me and about me?

Is God directing my heart?

Disorderly — does that describe me?

“Be not weary in well doing” — how does that apply to me right now?

Where do I find my peace?

[The Scriptures say in 2 Thessalonians 3:1 -- Pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course]
