For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more. And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law; To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law. To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some. And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.
This is the passage of scripture I am currently meditating on, it is for the anniversary celebration we have coming up this week. Here it is talking about true servant hood. In this text the scriptures refers to how Paul was willing to conform to customs of other people, whether Jew or Gentile, in order to bring them to Christ. He furthermore clarified it though so as not to be misunderstood.He obeyed Gods law through his obedience towards Christ. All this to show love, tolerance, and acceptance towards people.People are Gods priority, all people.What links will we go to assert ourselves into the lives of others to find that open opportunity to show Gods love to them. I believe this is how we win people back to God Let's pray.
Dear Heavenly Father I come to you today and prior to asking for anything I want to thank you for keeping us , holding us and sending your precious son to the World to show us how to live this life How to show love and kindness. To show ourselves in familiar state in order to bring the lost to you. Lord you have shown us throughout your Word the importance of people. How we are the apple of your eye and made in your image. You planted your spirit inside of us to lead us in your will and your way , and we do thank you Father God, we ask that you continue to create in us a clean heart and renew this right Spirit of yours within us.Give us the witty ideas and downloads to carry to the marketplace so we can effectively disrupt the plan of the enemy. Father we want no more than to bring this win home in your name. We thank you that the fight has been won and the job for us is to simply walk it out. We know without you we are nothing , but with you we can and will do all things In Jesus name we pray thank God and Amen.
