Morning Prayer ππ
For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.
Inspiration
In Corinth, a few felt Paul was not as remarkable as his letters made him appear to be. They thought highly of themselves and made negative comments that had the potential to harm his ministry. Paul says it is not wise to compare one another this way. He was once a soldier who persecuted Christians. He was not a spiritual leader, yet, God called him to share the Gospel with the nations. We must encourage one another regarding the works God has called us to do instead of comparing our talents. God has a perfect plan for each of us, and we will encourage one another to follow it precisely.
Prayerπ
Dear God, please teach us to stop analyzing each other and seek to encourage instead. You have called us to complete crucial works in Your name, and You place the proper person in authority. In Jesus' name, Amen.
