Word for Today:
Let us Pay Attention to Jesus Christ’s Teachings.
Ministry of the Word : True Spirituality
Improving Our Spiritual Understanding
Memory Verse
“Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered”(Heb 5:8).
Beloved
Christianity without Jesus Christ is an empty religion. He is the Word of God. He was with God in the beginning and He is God (John 1:1). He created all things for Himself (Colossians 1:16).
He is the Way, the Truth and the Life(John 14:6). He is in complete ONENESS with His Father (John 10:30).
In Him, we have oneness with the Father (John 17:21). “For in him we live, and move, and have our being” (Acts 17:28).
In the Ministry of the Word, we promote and encourage learning, knowledge and application of knowledge, both general and spiritual. Wisdom is the diligent application of knowledge. Jesus Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God (1Corinthians 1:24).
What are some of the things JESUS Christ, the Word of God has taught us ?
To love God with ALL our heart: “Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind” (Matt 22:37);
To love thy neighbour as thyself: “And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these”(Mark 12:31);
To love our enemies: “But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you” (Matt 5:44);
To do to others as you want others do to you: “Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets” (Matt 7:12);
To give in order to be blessed: “It is more blessed to give than to receive” (Acts 20:35).
He who scatters increases: “There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth” (Prov 11:24)
If our enemy is hungry, give him food: “Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head” (Rm 12:20);
We pray that Christ be well formed in us (Gal 4:19), so that we can diligently emulate Him in our body, soul and spirit, within the Church, and outside the Church in Jesus name. Amen.
To grow spiritually requires daily meditation with the word of God (Joshua 1:8) and seeking first the kingdom of God and its righteousness (Matthew 6:33). It also requires total fear of God, and spiritual training in the word of God: “Train yourself to be godly”(1Tim 4:7-8 NIV).
Prayer
Father, please fill us with your Holy Spirit and give us the grace to pay attention to your teachings , in Jesus mighty name. Amen.
Yours in the Vineyard of Christ.
