God Will Complete Good Work
Philippians is a joyful letter, written
by Paul from a prison cell in Rome
to one of the churches he founded
on his second missionary journey
(Acts16). Inspite of Paul’s adverse
circumstances, Philippians is a
letter of encouragement in the
midst of persecution. There is
much for Paul to rejoice about:
the Philippians’ repeated financial
assistance, the hope of visiting
the Philippian believers soon,
and the church’s steadfast
testimony for the gospel.
Lord, U will Complete Good Work:
I thank my God every time
I remember you. In all my prayers
for all of you, I always pray with
joy because of your partnership
in the gospel… Being confident
of this, that he who began a
good work in you will carry it
on to completion until the day
of Christ Jesus (Phil 1:3-6).
That you may be able to discern
what is best and may be pure
and blameless for the day of Christ
filled with the fruit of righteousness
that comes thro Christ to the glory
and praise of God (v10-11) Amen
Lord, I praise you for your great
salvation. You not only took away
my sin, but you also gave me a new
nature that longs to please You.
I am glad you do not give up on me.
Continue your work in me Lord.
I look forward to the day when
Your work is complete. Amen.
Lord, I am eternally linked to You
by grace through faith. I am part
of Your body for You are the head.
Thank You that my needs are
fully met in You. Forgive me
for the times I think and act
as though You are not enough.
For You will bring to completion
the good work that U began. Amen
Lord, please help me and those
for whom I am praying to grow
spiritually and understand what
really matters in life. I pray that
I will not chase after things that
doesn’t matter. But instead I will
focus on my relationship with You
and on growing to be more like U.
In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.
