Episode 80: Romans 16

Today's meditation is based on Romans 16, from The Passion Translation

I belong to the Lord and am set apart for him. God provides me with whatever I need. And I serve him as a great leader and champion. I would risk my own life to save the lives of my brothers and sisters in Christ. I toil and labor extremely hard to benefit the kingdom.

I am joined into the Lord and am a partner in ministry serving the Anointed One. I have been tested and found to be approved by the Anointed One.

I diligently serve the Lord. I watch out for those who cause divisions and offenses. When they antagonize me by speaking of things that are contrary to the teachings that I’ve received, I am not caught in their snare! For people like this are not truly serving the Lord, my Messiah, but are being driven by their own desires for a following. Utilizing their smooth words and well-rehearsed blessings, they seek to deceive the hearts of innocent ones.

I gladly share the testimony of my deep commitment of faith. I am a scholar of all that is good and beautiful, and stay pure and innocent when it comes to evil. The God of peace swiftly pounds Satan to a pulp under my feet! And the wonderful favor of my Lord Jesus surrounds me. The grace and favor of Lord Jesus, the Anointed One, continually rests me.

I give all my praises and glory to the one who has more than enough power to make me strong and keep me steadfast through the promises found in the gospel; the proclamation of Jesus, the Anointed One. This wonderful news includes the unveiling of the mystery kept secret from the dawn of creation until now. This mystery is understood through the prophecies of the Scripture and by the decree of the eternal God. And it is now heard openly by all nations, igniting within them a deep commitment of faith.

Now to God, the only source of wisdom, be glorious praises for endless ages through Jesus, the Anointed One!
