So proud of the Wednesday night kids, they have worked hard the month of September memorizing the 12 apostles initially chosen by Jesus to go out, spread His word and establish the early church. Next week is "GO" time, better known as prize time. Everyone able to name all 12 apostles will be able to claim a prize. Ask your kids, see who knows more about the original 12 apostles plus Judas' replacement, you or them.

Dwelling in the garden – Day 22

Scripture: Philippians 3:1-3 NIV
3 Further, my brothers and sisters, rejoice in the Lord! It is no trouble for me to write the same things to you again, and it is a safeguard for you. 2 Watch out for those dogs, those evildoers, those mutilators of the flesh. 3 For it is we who are the circumcision, we who serve God by his Spirit, who boast in Christ Jesus, and who put no confidence in the flesh—

Dwelling Point: Are you keeping watch? Are you influencing those around you for Christ or are you being influenced by those around you away from Christ? Are others helping you grow in your faith or are you slipping in your faith because of the influence of others? Hold firm when you are influencing those around you toward God and know when to walk away when you are being pulled away from God.

Praying Point: God, I choose to influence others in their faith. I want to win others for You which means I have to go to the battlefield. Lord, keep me strong. Help me stand firm. Help me to know when I need to walk away to protect myself, my faith, and my relationship with you. Lord help me walk away in love, kindness, gentleness and with peace.

Dwelling in the garden – Day 21

Scripture: Philippians 2:14-18 NIV
14 Do everything without grumbling or arguing, 15 so that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.”[c] Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky 16 as you hold firmly to the word of life. And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor in vain. 17 But even if I am being poured out like a drink offering on the sacrifice and service coming from your faith, I am glad and rejoice with all of you. 18 So you too should be glad and rejoice with me.

Dwelling Point: Well, I guess verse 14 is clear, doesn’t really need an explanation. Apparently if you are are obedient to verse 14 you can become blameless and pure. You will shine. I am not sure about you but sometimes I grumble and can even argue on occasion. I wonder what would happen if in those times, I were to stop and realign my why with God’s purpose for me. What if the next part is the key, the answer, holding firmly to the word of life. You see when I am holding firmly to the word of life, I concentrate on His purpose and not my selfish desires. When I realign, I find that my desires are His desires because that is what brings pure joy. With pure joy grumbling disappears. Rejoicing happens and I can be glad.

Praying Point: Lord when I am tired, help me hold firmly to your Word. When my focus becomes selfish, help me hold firmly to your Word. When I grumble, help me hold firmly to your Word. Help me to understand that withholding myself from your purpose and plan is what steals my gladness and creates the grumbling. Continually teach me, my all for your glory.

Dwelling in the garden – Day 20

Scripture: Philippians 2:12-13 NIV
12 Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, 13 for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.

Dwelling Point: Do you believe in sanctification? Do you live a continuous process of growth in holiness, where you progressively conform to the image of Christ? Do you continually work toward Christian perfection? Daily are you measuring your growth, realigning yourself for His good purpose?

Praying Point: Lord keep me aligned, each and every day keep me aligned for your good purpose.

Dwelling in the garden – Day 18

Scripture: Philippians 2:6-8 NIV
6 Who, being in very nature[a] God,
did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
7 rather, he made himself nothing
by taking the very nature[b] of a servant,
being made in human likeness.
8 And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
by becoming obedient to death—
even death on a cross!

Dwelling Point: Matthew 26:39 Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.”

In Daniel Ch. 3 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego answered king in verse 17 If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king. 18 But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.

Genesis 22:11 But the angel of the Lord called out to him from heaven, “Abraham! Abraham!” “Here I am,” he replied. 12 “Do not lay a hand on the boy,” he said. “Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.”

Daniel 6:10 Now when Daniel learned that the decree had been published, he went home to his upstairs room where the windows opened toward Jerusalem. Three times a day he got down on his knees and prayed, giving thanks to his God, just as he had done before.

That was biblical, that was then, this is now Open Doors World Watch List, https://www.opendoorsus.org/en-US/persecution/countries/

If I haven’t lost you yet, I end with Revelation 3:16 So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth.

Praying Point: Good, good Father thank you for your Son. Thank you for heroes in the Bible who were willing to lay their life down for You. Thank you for faithful followers today who are willing to lay down their life for You. Please continually teach me this level of faithful obedience. Teach me daily to grow and flee from lukewarm.

Dwelling in the garden – Day 17

Scripture: Philippians 2:5 NIV
5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:

Dwelling Point: Who do I share relationships with? What are those relationships like? What is the mindset of Christ Jesus? How am I doing at humility, service, focus on God’s will, obedience, compassion, forgiveness and prayerful dependence.

Praying Point: Dear Father, in a world where people turn away from others help me keep turning up. When I don’t agree, when I am filled with anger, when it doesn’t line up with my thoughts, desires or beliefs, provide compassion and teach prayerful dependence. When the time comes, allow me not only to forgive but help me, best as possible, to forget the personal hurt. Help me align my heart and mind in service to You.

Dwelling in the garden – Day 14

Scripture: Philippians 2:3-4 NIV
3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, 4 not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.

Dwelling Point: What if we lived in a world where everyone put other’s interests above their own? What if it starts with me? What if I did NOTHING out of selfish ambition?

Praying Point: Dear Father, make me more like you. Teach me sacrificial living. Teach me how to sincerely pray and live “Yet not as I will, but as you will" so that I may experience You more fully.

Dwelling in the garden – Day 13

Scripture: Philippians 2:1-2 NIV
Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, 2 then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind.

Dwelling Point: Test day! Please post any encouragement from being united with Christ. What comfort do you have from his love? What common sharing do you have in the Spirit? What like-mindedness can you share?

Praying Point: Lord today let me share boldly about me and my walk so others can feel our like-mindedness and be strengthened in their daily walk.
