Psalm 119:49-96 Part of 2 of 4 GNT
Please Others, Not Yourself
Romans 15:1-7 We who are strong in the faith ought to help the weak to carry their burdens, We should not please ourselves.
Instead, we should all please other believers for their own good, in order to build them up in the faith.
For Christ did not please himself, Instead, as the Scripture says, "The insults which are hurled at you have fallen on me."
Everything written in the Scriptures was written to teach us, in order that we might have hope through the patience and encouragement which the Scriptures give us.
And may God, the source of patience and encouragement, enable you to have the same point of view among yourselves by following the example of Christ Jesus,
so that all of you together may praise with one voice the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
The Gospel to the Gentiles
Accept one another, then, for the glory of God, as Christ has accepted you.
Paul's Prayer for his Readers
Philippians 1:3-11 I thank my God for you every time I think of you;
and every time I pray for you all, I pray with joy
because of the way in which you have helped me in the work of the gospel from the very first day until now.
And so I am sure that God, who began this good work in you, will carry it until it is finished on the Day of Christ Jesus.
You are always in my heart! And so it is only right for me to feel as I do about you. For you have all shared with me in this privilege that God has given me, both now that I am in prison and also while I was free to defend the gospel and establish it firmly.
God is my witness that I tell the truth when I say that my deep feeling for you all comes from the heart of Christ Jesus himself.
I pray that your love will keep on growing more and more, together with true knowledge and perfect judgment,
so that you will be able to choose what is best. Then you will be free from all impurity and blame on the Day of Christ.
Your lives will be filled with the truly good qualities which only Jesus Christ can produce, for the glory and praise of God.
Hebrews 12:7-11 Endure what you suffer as being a father's punishment; your suffering shows that God is treating you as his children. Was there ever a child who was not punished by his father?
If you are not punished, as all his children are, it means you are not real children, but bastards.
In the case of our human fathers, they punished us and we respected them, How much more, then, should we submit to our spiritual Father and live!
Our human fathers punished us for a short time, as it seemed right to them, but God does it for our own good, sot that we may share his holiness.
When we are punished, it seems to us at the time something to make us sad, not glad. Later however those who have been disciplined by such punishment reap the peaceful reward of a righteous life.
A Confession of a Sufferer
Psalm 39:1-13 I said, "I will be careful about what I do and will not let my tongue make me sin; I will not say anything while evil people are near."
I kept quiet, not saying a word, not even about anything good! But my suffering only grew worse,
and I was overcome with anxiety. The more I thought, the more troubled I became; I could not keep from asking:
"Lord, how long will I live? When will I die? Tell me how soon my life will end."
How short you have made my life! In your sight my lifetime seems nothing. Indeed every living being is no more than a puff of wind,
no more a shadow. All we do is for nothing; we gather wealth, but don't know who will get it.
What, then, can I hope for, Lord? I put my hope in you.
Save me from all my sins and don't let fools make fun of me.
I will keep quiet, I will not say a word, for you are the one who made me suffer like this.
Don't punish me any more! I am about to die from your blows.
You punish our sins by your rebukes. and like a moth you destroy what we love. Indeed we are no more than a puff of wind!
Hear my prayer, Lord, and listen to my cry; come to my aid when I weep. Like all my ancestors I am only your guest for a little while.
Leave me alone so that I may have some happiness before I go away and am no more.
Romans 10:9-13 If you confess that Jesus is Lord and believe that God raised him from death, you will be saved.
For it is by our faith that we are put right with God; it is by our confession that we are saved.
The scriptures say "Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed."
This includes everyone, because there is no difference between Jews and Gentiles; God is the same Lord of all and richly blesses all who call to him.
As the scripture says "Everyone who calls out to the Lord for help will be saved."
