Apologies!

I've started a master's degree program which has comsumed quite a bit of time, energy, and creativity. I've got myself back into functional routine that will help maintain my blogs. So, I look forward to new post, but for time being post will consist of a verse with commentary from at least two different sources. Thank you for your patience and support. With renewed interest, please spread the blog and keep reading. Blessing, Scott.

His Will

Philippians 2:13
For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
1.) Why is it so important to submit ourselves to God's will?

2.) Why is it that when we follow our own ambitions we hurt ourselves, others, or both?

Did you pray today? If you haven't, now is as good a time as any. Pray and pray continually.

Deception

Leviticus 19:11
Do not steal. Do not lie. Do not deceive one another.

1.) Most people are not con men. However, how are we deceptive to each other on a smaller scale? 

2.) Do you genuinely treat other people as God would want you to every day?

3.) Is it impossible for us to always treat others as we should or is just difficult for us to remain consistent?

If you breathing then you could be praying. Pray and pray continually. Make it as natural to pray as it is to breathe and I pray God blesses you tonight.

Love

John 17: 26

Jesus said,

"I have made you known to them, and will contnue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them."

1.) How often do you we fail to love everyday?

Make prayer in your life as natural as breathing. Pray and pray continually.

Counted Faithful

1Timothy 1:12

And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has enabled me, because He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry.

* I really don't even know what to say or write to be honest. I read this and was just in awe.

1.) Why does he count us faithful?

2.) Are we all put into the ministry?

This looks like another verse that beckons one to his knees in prayer.

Godliness

1 Timothy 4:8

For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.

1.) Why is physical training only of some value?

2.) What give godliness value for all things?

Pray and pray continually. Make praying as natural as breathing. I pray God blesses you tonight and keep in mind those in Japan that need our prayers.

Sunday

Sunday

• It's Sunday.
• No study today.
• Spend time in prayer.
• Talk to God, submit yourself in prayer.
• spend more than just a few moments.
• Make a list of things to pray about.
• Make a list of people to pray for
• If you started keeping a log of our scripture studies that would be a great place to keep your prayer list.
• You don't have to be a pro.
• The more you do something, the better you will get.
• James 5:16 Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.

If you recently started following this blog, please take today to look at the previous post and offer your comments and insights. Have a restful evening and I look forward to posting more scriptures starting tomorrow. May God bless you tonight.
