holy and dearly loved, clothe

yourselves with compassion,

kindness, humility, gentleness

and patience.

(Colossians 3.12).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

“God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”

(I.Peter 5.5b).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.

Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you

may have against one another.

Forgive as the Lord forgave you.

And over all these virtues put on love which

binds them all together in perfect unity.

(Colossians 3.12-14).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

Be eager and strive

earnestly to guard

and keep the  harmony

and oneness of (and

produced by)

the Spirit in the binding

power of peace.

(Ephesians 4. 3)

POINTS FOR REFLECTION

AND MEDITATION

1) The pursuit of peace

is only possible by the

attitude of humility,

gentleness, forgiveness

and kindness which

characterizes Jesus. His

character traits allow

us to pursue peace

successfully. These character

traits are acquired  by being

filled with the Holy Spirit.

2) When we are intentional

and intense in the pursuit

of harmony and oneness

with the binding and

uniting power of the

Holy Spirit we are

able to make progress

in achieving peace.

3) If you are eager for happiness

this is the key to lasting happiness.

PRAISE THE LORD JESUS

FOR HIS MOST PHENOMENAL GIFT!

Living as becomes you

with complete lowliness

of mind (humility) and

meekness (unselfishness,

gentleness, mildness),

with patience, bearing

with one another and

making allowances because

you love one another.

POINTS FOR MEDITATION

AND PRAISE

1) What characterizes Jesus Christ’s

attitude towards humanity? His

character traits, attitude and behavior

are  our example.

2) Happiness is doing what brings

everlasting rewards.

Happy living requires following the

example set by Jesus Christ, the

Captain of our salvation.

3) Let this same attitude and purpose

and humble mind be in you which was

in Christ Jesus: ( Let Him be your example

in humility:)

Who, although being essentially one with

God (possessing the fullness of the attributes

of God), did not think this equality with God

was something to be eagerly grasped or

retained,

But stripped Himself (of all privileges and

rightful dignity) so as to assume the guise

of a servant, in that He became  a man.

And after He had appeared in human form,

He abased and humbled Himself (still further)

and carried out His obedience to the extreme

of death, even  the death of the cross!

Therefore (because He stooped so low) God

has highly exalted Him and has freely bestowed

on Him the name that is above every name,

That at the name of Jesus every knee must bow,

in heaven and on earth and under the earth,

And every tongue openly confess and acknowledge

that Jesus is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

(Philippians 2 .5-11).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS!
