Scripture Today's Scripture: (Audio)
Weekly Prayer
Lord, bless and equip Your Body. Bless, protect, and guide everyone in the Jesus Fellowship Group, their friends, and family members. I pray that everyone would learn to (Ephesians 6:13) "take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm." Lord we know that (1Peter 4:7-8)....7 The end of all things [b]is near; therefore, be of sound judgment and sober spirit for the purpose of [c]prayer. 8 Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins." Help us to love one another, especially those that are blinded by the devil. Unite us in prayer and doing Your will to snatch others out of the hand of the enemy, and fill us with the confidence to know that nothing can happen outside of Your divine providence and control. Amen
Psalms 110:4-7
4 The Lord has sworn and will not change his mind: “You are a priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek.” 5 The Lord is at your right hand[c]; he will crush kings on the day of his wrath. 6 He will judge the nations, heaping up the dead and crushing the rulers of the whole earth. 7 He will drink from a brook along the way,[d] and so he will lift his head high.
Slaves to Righteousness
19 I am using an example from everyday life because of your human limitations. Just as you used to offer yourselves as slaves to impurity and to ever-increasing wickedness, so now offer yourselves as slaves to righteousness leading to holiness. 20 When you were slaves to sin, you were free from the control of righteousness. 21 What benefit did you reap at that time from the things you are now ashamed of? Those things result in death! 22 But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life. 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in[b] Christ Jesus our Lord.
