CONSOLATION, COMFORT, FELLOWSHIP, AND MERCY
Philippians 2:1-4
Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercy, fulfill my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.
Personal Challenge
We are charged to not just look out for our own interests, but for the interests of others as well. We are also to not do anything through selfish ambition or conceit, but in a lowliness of mind, esteeming others better than ourselves. Why should we do this? By living our Christian life this way, we will receive consolation in Christ, comfort in love, fellowship of the Spirit, and affection and mercy. We will experience Christ in ways above imagination. Glory be to God!
