KEY SCRIPTURE

1 Corinthians 9:19-23 (The Message)

Even though I am free of the demands and expectations of everyone, I have voluntarily become a servant to any and all in order to reach a wide range of people: religious, nonreligious, meticulous moralists, loose-living immoralists, the defeated, the demoralized—whoever. I didn’t take on their way of life. I kept my bearings in Christ—but I entered their world and tried to experience things from their point of view. I’ve become just about every sort of servant there is in my attempts to lead those I meet into a God-saved life. I did all this because of the Message. I didn’t just want to talk about it; I wanted to be in on it!

PRAYER

Father,

Do what you need to do in me so that you can do what you need to do through me.

Holy Spirit, help me to become more like my King - King Jesus!

Where there is fear, help me trust; where there is anger, help me to forgive; where there is doubt, help my unbelief. Let Your word find a home in my heart.

In Jesus’ name, Amen
