Peculiar People's Holy Quest Chapel PPHQC 1 Peter 2:9 (KJV) But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a PECULIAR PEOPLE.

1 Peter 2:9 (KJV)

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a PECULIAR PEOPLE; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:

VERSE
2 Thessalonians 1:12 (KJV) That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

INSPIRATION
This is Paul’s prayer for the Christians in Thessalonica: that Christ would be glorified in them, and that they would be glorified with Him. We can pray that same prayer for ourselves and others. When we do things for God, even giving a cup of water in Jesus’ name to someone who asks for it, we glorify God. Doing great things for God often means living for Him in the day to day.

PRAYER
Father in Heaven, help me to glorify you. I want others to see You in me. Help me today. If someone needs something, give me compassion for them. Give me grace for others as You have had grace for me. Let others see the love I have for You in my actions. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

VERSE
And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
1 Corinthians 2:4

INSPIRATION

See 1 Corinthians 1:17. Paul was capable of using wise and persuasive words if he thought the occasion required them (Acts 17:22-31). But he knew the two most important elements in preaching were to have the right message and the power of God’s Spirit to deliver it. It is quite possible for preachers even with the right message to try to talk people into God’s kingdom and fail to achieve this because of a lack of God’s power. So see Luke 24:49; Acts 1:8; Eph 5:18. People are not saved and established in the faith by being impressed with the wisdom or eloquence of the preacher, but by trusting Christ.

VERSE
Psalms 91:1 (KJV) He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

INSPIRATION
The secret place of the Most High God, is found in Jesus Christ. To the men of the old, the plan of Christ to come was a mystery. But we, who are in the new covenant, no longer behold mysteries because God has revealed everything to us. We dwell in Christ and in Him we are protected from the devices of the enemy.

PRAYER
Dear God, I thank you for the security that I have in Christ. Though the enemy may try to bring me down, I know that he will never succeed because I am hidden in you, Lord. May I never lose hope, Lord, and may I always remember the great assurance I have in you. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

(Verse)
Casting all your care upon him, for he cares for you.
1 Peter 5:7

(Inspiration)
“He cares for you”– Matt 6:30; Heb 2:6-8; Phil 4:19. God thinks about us, plans for us, is concerned for us as a Father for His children. To be anxious is to make ourselves miserable and to dishonor Him. Casting our cares on Him means to bring them to Him and trust Him to take them and work everything out for the best, resting in His goodness and wisdom and power.

VERSE Acts 1:8 (KJV) But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses ...
09/10/2023

VERSE
Acts 1:8 (KJV) But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

INSPIRATION
Verse 5. Power here means supernatural energy and ability. To be God’s witnesses in a hostile world, to live and speak and serve as they ought, they needed more power than they possessed by nature, and more than they had received as a result of the new birth (John 1:12-13; 3:3, 5, 8). The same is true today. They needed and we need the Spirit’s fullness. “Witnesses” see Luke 24:48; John 15:27; Acts 2:32; 3:15; 5:32; 10:39; 13:31; 22:15. A witness is someone who tells others what he has seen or heard or knows by experience. Apostles proclaimed the facts of Jesus’ life, death, resurrection and ascension – facts they themselves had seen with their own eyes. And they taught what they themselves had heard Him teach. Taking this verse we can divide the book of Acts into three parts – witness in Jerusalem (chapters 1–7), witness in Judea and Samaria (chapters 8–12), witness to other parts of the world (chapters 13–28). This witness to the truth still continues.
Now God’s servants everywhere in the world proclaim the truth they have learned from the testimony of the original apostles who saw and heard the Lord Jesus. They can testify also to a personal experience with Christ.

The Holy Spirit serves as a witness to the things God has done through His Son, Jesus Christ. It is through the Holy Spirit we are able to testify of the good things God has done, as well as preach the message of Christ to the world. The Holy Spirit empowers us and enables us to preach effectively and perform miracles if need be.

PRAYER
Dear God, I thank You for the gift You gave me in the form of the Holy Spirit, Your Spirit. Thank You, Lord, that because of Your Holy Spirit, I am never away from You. Lord, I ask that I may remain attentive to the guiding and teaching of the Holy Spirit, through Your word. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

VERSE

Romans 13:6 (KJV) For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.

INSPIRATION

Although devotion to God’s moral law comes first, this passage in Romans also highlights the importance of staying obedient to the law, especially in relation to ‘paying one's tribute’ in society. In context, this tribute once related to taxes specifically paid to rulers (if these men were just and diligent!), but whose definition today may perhaps be broadened. Charity, volunteer or missionary work and donations could perhaps all be considered latter-day tributes. Redefined as such, it relates more generally to show a greater concern for others within a larger body politic than simply oneself. Furthermore, the point being raised here is that if our ministers are good and care for the welfare of their citizens, then we should support their office and dignity. We do this not out of fear or retribution, but out of our individual consciences, given to us and guided by the Lord for a harmony in man.

PRAYER

O Lord above, dispense within me the virtues of Gabriel; grant me with the devotion and servitude of Your Saints. Allot to me my duty Lord, so that I may carry it upon my shoulders, and pay tribute here on earth, as surely as I will in Heaven. Through this, may we achieve greater harmony, with our hands and consciences clean, ready to enter through the gates of Heaven. Whereupon entering the gates, we may bathe again, Christened for a second time in Your light. Amen.

VERSE

Psalms 86:5 (KJV) For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee.

INSPIRATION

Think of a grudge that you held on for a long time. Did you feel better from holding this grudge? Now think about this deeper: what if God held a grudge against us? Wow, how lucky we are that he forgives us for our sins! He leads by example, forgiving those of us that do exactly what he asks us not to do. We all should all be more forgiving, like God is to us.

PRAYER

You sent your only son to the world to die so that we may be forgiven, merciful God. Forgive me, once again, for being too selfish and proud to not forgive those that trespass against me. I wish that I can sin less and ask for forgiveness and guidance when I need it. I thank you for sending your son to us, Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior. Amen.

VERSE

Hebrews 12:28 (KJV) Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:

INSPIRATION

Being made of men, earthly kingdoms will inevitably be overturned under the might of God. Since all who follow Him are inheritors to an afterlife, it was declared by the Apostles themselves that Christ has made His people kings beyond these earthly empires. After they have all but passed away, only that of the Kingdom of God will remain, unshaken.

PRAYER

Mighty Lord, glory to Your Kingdom everlasting! Lead me not to falter in improvidence for earthy powers, but open my heart instead to accept the word of Christ in His undying wisdom. For thy Kingdom is endless, thy divine law imperishable, and Your grace and blessing boundless. To You Lord, I owe my ultimate obedience. In praise of Your name, Amen.

VERSE

Psalms 139:9-10 (KJV) If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.

INSPIRATION

A beautiful passage in Psalms. God no matter where we are, to what depths we have sunk or distances we’ve traveled, God will be by our side, His hand and light our guide. Be not afraid of this world, for we are never alone.

PRAYER

My Lord my Shepherd, I thank you for leading me into the light of Your grace and mercy. Even if I do not deserve Your blessing, You have let me into Your arms and accepted me. Even if I am not worthy, You have offered Your hand in guiding me through this world. I give thanks to You Lord, for being forever by side, for never leaving me no matter how far I stray, for being my Shepherd, for being my guide. Amen.

VERSE

James 1:2-3 (KJV) My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;
Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

INSPIRATION

“What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.” When it comes to a test of faith, this quote rings true. Challenges can be met with excitement or anxiety. Life can always be viewed as a gift, although it can be very difficult to think of it like this when times are tough. With practice, devotion, and faith, it gets easier with each challenge overcome.

PRAYER

O Heavenly Father, give me the strength and resolve to face life’s difficulties with a faithful heart. I ask that you strengthen my devotion to you with each hurdle that I pass, knowing that it was you that helped me over. When the path seems too challenging to continue, help remind me that the righteous path is one that leads to heaven. For your glory, I ask these things in your holy name. Amen.
