Romans 1; Romans 2; Romans 3; Romans 4
That Is,
That You And I
May Be Mutually Encouraged By Each Other’s Faith
Scripture
12 that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith.
Observation
As
I was reading my Bible this morning I received a phone call from a friend who
wanted to thank me because of something I said in a sermon in 2008. She said
that she was having her quiet time and came across what I said (I guess in her
spiritual journal or in the margin of her Bible) that prompted her to call and
thank Kathy and I for being an encouragement to her.
What
she probably didn’t realize when she made the phone call was that she was
actually going to be an encouragement to us. Her phone conversation with us was
an example of what Paul was talking about in verse 12; we were mutually
encouraged by each other’s faith!
Application
I will pray about who needs a phone call and a word of
encouragement.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank You for Christian friends. Thank
You for their encouragement. Help me to be an encouragement to someone today.
Don’t let me miss an opportunity. I pray for our Mission Conference that begins
tomorrow. I pray that the missionaries that speak will touch the lives of many
that hear their stories. I pray that You would call someone from within our
church to go to the mission field as a result of this conference. Speak through
each missionary in a powerful way. Use them to encourage us to be more involved
in reaching Your world with the Gospel.
