God Is At Work In You
Therefore, my beloved, as you 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; for it is God who
works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.
Don't Fuss & Complain
Do all things without murmuring and disputing, that you may become blameless and harmless,
children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom
you shine as lights in the world, holding fast the word of life, so that I may rejoice in the day of
Christ that I have not run in vain or labored in vain. Yes, and if I am being poured out as a
drink offering on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with you all. For
the same reason you also be glad and rejoice with me.
Philippians 2:1-18, New King James Version


Care About The Interests of Others
Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of
love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercy, fulfill
my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one
accord, of one mind. Let nothing be done through selfish ambition
or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better
than himself. Let each of you look out not only for his own
interests, but also for the interests of others.
Let This Mind Be In You
Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being
in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with
God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a
servant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in
appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to
the point of death, even the death of the cross. Therefore God
also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above
every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of
those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the
earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is
Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Meditate on this truth:
True Christian Fellowship
is first
then, H O R I Z O N T A L.
Our fellowship with one
another often reflects the
depth of our fellowship with
God.
