There are many people in the Body of Christ who are struggling and suffering, going through enormous challenges that really challenges our belief and where we are in him. At present there is this phrase Not one shall Fail that comes in mind, it came through an article, it came when I called out to the Lord, it comes into my mind in answer to prayer for many different people....Not one shall fail
In this article written by Kenneth Copeland he talks about having a love for each other that Jesus has for each one of us, that Paul has for each member of the church in Philippi and so...I claim this for each of us in the Body of Christ to experience, to know that not one of us shall fail, that when we see our brothers and sisters with need, struggling etc.. we reach out to them with the Love Jesus has for each one of us....
This version comes from the New International Reader's Version....
Phillipians 1:3-11
I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy. I am happy because you have joined me in spreading the good news. You have done so from the first day until now. I am sure that the One who began a good work in you will carry it on until it is completed. That will be on the day Christ Jesus returns. It is right for me to feel this way about all of you. I love you with all my heart. I may be held by chains, or I may be standing up for the truth of the good news. Either way all of you share in God's grace together with me. God can give witness that I long for all of you. I love you with the love that Christ Jesus gives.
I pray that you love will grow more and more. And let it be based on knowledge and understanding. Then you will be able to know what is best. You will be pure and without blame until the day Christ returns. You will be filled with the fruit of right living produced by Jesus Christ. All of those things bring glory and praise to God.
May we always remember it is not us doing the loving but Jesus loving through each one of us...
