1 Corinthians 12:12 For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ. ¹³ For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free—and have all been made to drink into one Spirit. ¹⁴ For in fact the body is not one member but many.

1 Corinthians 15: 3 - For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, ⁴ and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures. 

2 Samuel 7:18 - Then King David went in and sat before the Lord; and he said: “Who am I, O Lord God? And what is my house, that You have brought me this far?

Psalm 51: 1-19, Romans 12 (Living Sacrifice), Hosea 14:2, Hebrew 13:15

As David prayed this Psalm, we realize he knew how to pray for revival in his life. Let us keep this as a guide and focus for our lives. The moment we go away from God, let us read this Psalm and God for revival. God will talk to us more about this in the coming days as He will take us into revival. Amen! 

Isaiah 58:11 The Lord will guide you continually, And satisfy your soul in drought, And strengthen your bones; You shall be like a watered garden, And like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.

Listen to the sermon to know more about how God wants us to a winner. We must develop what those athletes did for the world, but for the sake of heaven. Heaven will rejoice as we achieve things for God. 

Setting boundaries is an important step of a healthy christian life on this Earth. 

A boundary is a dividing line, sometimes visible, sometimes imaginary. Geographically a boundary marks the end of a property/ jurisdiction and the beginning of another. There are boundaries in inter-personal relationships in order to operate in their domains. 

God is telling us to draw a boundary of holiness. 

 

Psalm 103:1-5 Bless the Lord, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name! ² Bless the Lord, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: ³ Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies, ⁵ Who satisfies your mouth with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

1 Corinthians 15: 1- 58 Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received and in which you stand, ² by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.

³ For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, ⁴ and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures, ⁵ and that He was seen by Cephas, then by the twelve. ⁶ After that He was seen by over five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain to the present, but some have fallen asleep. ⁷

The resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ is the hope of Christianity. If Jesus Christ had not risen from the dead, there is no meaning for what we do today. We would have no hope of eternity. 

Today we know that there is hope in our Lord Jesus Christ as our savior. Listen to the sermon to gain courage in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and find hope in His resurrection.
