May we always seek opportunities to build up others and to encourage them in the faith.  Thank You that the mysteries of prophecy have been made known to us, and that we have been accepted into Your Kingdom, into Your family... engrafted, adopted as sons and daughters through faith. Thank You that it is Your peace that conquers the enemy, not our own strength. Help us to rest daily in that peace.  Amen

Our spirits were renewed when we accepted Jesus as Lord, and now we work steadfastly at renewing our minds, not conforming ot the world and its system. We know that the only way to overcome evil is with good. So we set our intention to do what is right and to love as You love. Amen

Through You, through Holy Spirit, and through the sacrifice of Jesus, we are more than conquerors. Thank You that nothing can separate us from Your love. Amen

Father God, certainly, the spirit is willing but our flesh is weak. If there is one thing we have proven over and over again, it's that we can't keep Your law, Your commandments in our own strength. Thank You, Father, that You made another way for us. Thank You that we are no longer under the law but under grace. Not that it gives us an excuse to sin. But it covers our sins when we miss the mark. Thank You for Grace and Eternal Life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

Father God, it is so easy to fall under the law, thinking we can earn our salvation. But scripture makes it clear that all have fallen short. All have sinned. No one is capable of keeping the whole of the law. And, if we break one commandment, scripture says we are guilty of breaking the whole law. Thank You, Father, for Your grace. Thank You for the righteousness we have through faith in Jesus and in his sacrifice to reconcile us. Remind us, Father, that we walk and we live by faith. Amen

----
Father God, help us to remember as the Apostle Paul wrote, we do not fight against flesh and blood, and we do not fight with earthly weapons, but with spiritual. Weapons You have provided through Your world that are powerful enough to demolish even the most fortified strongholds of thought within us. Father, we cast down every thought that comes to our minds that goes against Your Word -- no matter where or who those thoughts came from; whether they are from people around us, from society, from the enemy, and especially our own thoughts. We cast them down and replace them with what Your Word says. Thank You, Father, that Your grace is sufficient for us. Thank you that we don't have to rely on our own strength, and that in our weakness, You are strong. Amen

Father God, thank You for the Apostle Paul and for his letters to the early church. There is so much in these four chapters! Thank You that ALL of Your promises are Yes and the Amen -- or So Be It -- is found in You. The fulfilment of the promises isn't dependent on us. You have already made provision for every promise. Thank You that our sufficiency is from You. Thank You that the veil was torn and we can now approach You face-to-face. Thank You for the treasure of the power Holy Spirit in us that enables us to not be crushed or destroyed. Thank You for the life that works in us.

Father God, thank You for the gifts of Holy Spirit, and for those who allow the gifts to flow through them to build up the members of the body of Christ. We thank You that each of us has a place in Your Kingdom and in the body of Christ. We don't envy the gifts or roles of another, but know that You have given the gifts as You desire, and as they will best benefit the whole. The gifts aren't ours, they are Yours, they only flow through us as we are willing vessles. We earnestly seek those gifts, but more than anything, Father, we seek to love as You love. We seek to be patient and kind, not to envy, brag or boast. We don't seek to have our own way, and we aren't provoked to anger. We rejoice in the truth. We bear all things, believe in all things, hope in all things and we endure all things through the power of love. And Your love never fails. Amen
