    In the words of Paul, we have two practical advice how we can serve in humility: (1) "Consider others better than yourselves" - DON’T OVERESTIMATE YOURSELF, and (2) "Look to the interests of others" - CARE FOR THE INTERESTS OF OTHERS.

    The Holy Spirit is constantly working in our lives. We are always a bridge in someone’s life. Our obedience to God is a big thing. It is always worth it!

    The resurrection of Christ makes it possible for us to live life on a higher level.

    We find verse 11 to be most interesting. What is Paul speaking of here? After all, this is the objective he has in mind as he says what he does in verses 7 through 10. All that he says about the commitment of his life has to do with verse 11. Is Paul speaking of some future event that he hopes to ...read more

    When we pray, we see the Father’s love (the basis of our prayer), the Father’s control (our assurance), and the Father’s heart (our goal in life).

    The Lord’s Prayer we recite is a prayer Jesus taught His disciples. • It is not His prayer to God but a prayer meant for us. • Jesus need not have to pray “forgive us our sins” for He had no sins. In the Scriptures, the longest prayer of Jesus is found in John 17. • This prayer was made just ...read more

    We are overcomers in Christ. Many fell into temptations because they believed in the devil's lies that they are the only one going through difficulties, the temptations are too overpowering, and there is no way out except to give in.
