God's Reminder of 2 Cor 6
2 Corinthians 6
1 As God's fellow workers we urge you not to receive God's grace in vain.
2 For he says, "In the time of my favor I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you." I tell you, now is the time of God's favor, now is the day of salvation.
Amen Lord Jesus! We thank you that now is the time to receive God's favor and helps. Give us faith not to miss out what you have installed for us.
Paul's Hardships
3 We put no stumbling block in anyone's path, so that our ministry will not be discredited.4 Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships and distresses;
5 in beatings, imprisonments and riots; in hard work, sleepless nights and hunger;
6 in purity, understanding, patience and kindness; in the Holy Spirit and in sincere love;
7 in truthful speech and in the power of God; with weapons of righteousness in the right hand and in the left;
8 through glory and dishonor, bad report and good report; genuine, yet regarded as impostors;
9 known, yet regarded as unknown; dying, and yet we live on; beaten, and yet not killed;
10 sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything.
Praise God for Saint Paul!
Lord, although the narrow road that we walk is full of challenge, but we know that God's presence never leave us as your words promised in Psalm23. Help us to be courages to take up the cross and follow Jesus daily. Help us to be a blessing of those who around us. Help us to empty ourselves so that God's life can fill us. Thank you we are able to suffer for the sake of your kingdom because of the Holy Spirit who dwelling inside us has given us strength.
Lord, Help us to live a life that is pleasing you and glorify your Name. In Jesus Name. Amen!
