To Die Is Gain?

To Die Is Gain?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know that to live is Christ, and to die is gain. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Apostle Paul wrote the church at Philippi knowing he could be put to death at any time.

He makes a statement that causes believers to think deeply about what it means to live for Jesus. Philippians 1:21 (ESV) says, “For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.”

Are you ready to make such a statement? Are you committed to live for Christ? If so, make every day count. Stay on track. Pray. When the end comes, believe and spend eternity with Jesus.

Work in Progress?

Work in Progress?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for people to know that he who began a good work will be faithful to complete it. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Ever heard someone say, “Give it time.” Impatient people can be found everywhere. Our instant gratification culture can be seen in everything from on-demand movies to fast food.

In God’s economy things take time.
Apostle Paul says in Philippians 1:6 (ESV), “And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.”

It may be very hard, but accept God’s timing. We can live by the promise: God will “bring it to completion” even if it takes longer than we expect. Be patient. Let God.
