For Reading and Meditation:      Philippians 2:1-13As we conclude our study of the phrase, "Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy", we ask ourselves: What would happen if we really put into practice this important principle? It would mean that we would look at everyone through Christian eyes. We would see sinners, not merely as the victims of sin and Satan, but as men and women who are to be pitied. We would see a fellow Christian who falls by the way, not as someone to come down on, but as someone to be lifted up. Far too many of us walk about with judgmental attitudes, and whenever anyone slips up, we either harangue them with a Bible text or wither them with a look of scorn. We have the philosophy of an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Failure is met with derision and wrong is met with contempt. I have no hesitation in saying that such attitudes ought not to be found among the people of God. Wherever they are present, they will eat like acid into the soul. Being merciful means letting Christ have control of our lives so that His gentleness overcomes our vindictiveness, His kindness our unkindness, and His bigness our littleness. Are you a merciful person? Do you look upon those who have fallen with concern and compassion - or is your attitude one of contempt and scorn? Can you feel pity for those who have been duped by the world and the devil? If so, then - congratulations! You have passed the test and are on your way to experiencing spiritual health and happiness. Blessed indeed are those who are merciful - for they will obtain mercy.O my Father, with all my heart I cry out - help me to be a merciful person. Touch my whole being today by Your blessed Holy Spirit so that I might be changed into Your image. In Jesus' Name I pray. Amen.<div class="tl-lightgrey mt20 pt20 flexbox-row-wrap jc-around"><div><div class="fs-17 fg-mustard bold center-it">AdditionalVerses</div><ul style="margin-top:0px"><li>Luke 18:1-14</li><li>2 Corinthians 8:1-9</li><li>Hebrews 2:17-18</li></ul></div>

Let a little light into your soul every day with this wonderful devotional from English pastor Selwyn Hughes.

Every Day Light with Selwyn Hughes

"Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others." (v. 4) 

The key word in Philippians 2:1-30 is "others." The Lord Jesus lived for others. Paul lived for others. Timothy lived for others. Epaphroditus lived for others. We too should live for others.We are told to do this not only because it is right but also because it is for our own good. If it is sometimes costly to live for others, it is more costly not to do so.Our society is filled with people who live only for their own personal interests. Rather than keeping busy in serving others, they sit at home brooding. They think about every minor ache and pain and soon become confirmed hypochondriacs. In their loneliness they complain that no one takes an interest in them and soon they wallow in self-pity. The more time they have to think about themselves, the more depressed they become. Life becomes one great introspective horror of darkness. Soon they go off to the doctor and gulp enormous quantities of pills - pills that can never cure self-centeredness. Then they frequent the psychiatrist's couch to somehow find relief for their boredom and weariness with life.The best therapy for people like that is a life of service for others. There are shut-ins to be visited. There are senior citizens who need a friend. There are hospitals that welcome volunteer help. There are people who could be cheered by a letter or a card. There are missionaries who welcome news from home (and perhaps they could use a little greenery to brighten up the scenery). There are souls to be saved and Christians to be taught. In short there is no excuse for anyone to be bored. There is enough to do to fill one's life with productive activity. And in the very process of living for others, we widen our circle of friends, make our own lives more interesting, and find fulfilment and satisfaction. P.M. Derham said, "A heart that is full of compassion for others is less likely to be absorbed in its own sorrows and poisoned by its own self pity."Others, yes, Lord, others,Let this my motto be.Help me to live for othersThat I may live like Thee.

With reverence, humor and skill, William MacDonald wove a daily devotional tapestry that challenges the reader to think deeply and Biblically, and apply God's Word to their lives.

Truths to Live By - One Day at a Time

"Do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others." (Philippians 2:4 NASB)

One of the many noteworthy features of the Word of God is that it never isolates doctrine from duty. Take Philippians 2:1-13, for example. It is one of the classic passages in the New Testament on the doctrine of Christ. We learn there of His equality with God the Father, His self-emptying, His incarnation, His servanthood, His death and His subsequent glorification. But this is introduced, not as a doctrinal treatise, but as an appeal to the Philippians and to us to have the mind of Christ. If we live for others as He did, this will eliminate strife and vainglory. If we take the low place as He did, God will exalt us in due time. The passage is intensely practical.I often think of this when I read books on systematic theology. In these books the authors seek to gather together all that the Bible teaches on the doctrines of the faith, whether of God, Christ, the Holy Spirit, angels, man, sin, redemption, etc. While this has definite value, it can be very cold when isolated from godly living. A person can be intellectually proficient in the great doctrines and yet be sadly deficient as to his Christian character. If we study the Bible as God has given it to us, we never get a dichotomy between doctrine and duty. The two are always beautifully balanced and woven together.Perhaps the doctrinal subject that has been most divorced from our personal responsibility is prophecy. Too often it has been presented in such a way as to cater to curiosity. Sensational speculations concerning the identity of the Antichrist may draw the crowds but they don't develop holiness. Prophecy was never intended to tickle itching ears but rather to shape Christian character. George Peters lists 65 ways in which the Second Advent is calculated to affect our doctrine, duty and character; and I don't doubt that there are many more than that.The lesson for us is that we should never divorce theology from practical godliness. In our own personal study and in teaching the Word to others, we should emphasize Paul's exhortation to Timothy, "Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine…"

"Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine." (1 Timothy 4:16)

This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent. Faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. § Faith working through love. § He who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life. § We are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. § [He] gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works. We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is fitting, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of every one of you all abounds toward each other … Therefore we also pray always for you that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good plea- sure of His goodness and the work of faith with power. § It is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.

Daily Light on the Daily Path or Daily Light is a Christian daily devotional scripture reading published by Bagster & Sons about 1875. It has been reprinted continually since then. It consists of brief groupings of scripture passages which speak to prominent Biblical themes—two themes (morning and evening) for each day of the year. It appends no commentary, but simply allows scripture to speak for itself.

Morning Daily Light

Daily Devotional for Dec 22

Your beauty . . . was perfect through My splendor which I had bestowed on you,” says the Lord God. § We all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord. § The Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. Blessed is every one who fears the Lord, who walks in His ways. When you eat the labor of your hands, you shall be happy, and it shall be well with you. § Commit your works to the Lord, and your thoughts will be established. Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure. § Our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and our God and Father, who has loved us and given us everlasting consolation and good hope by grace, comfort your hearts and establish you in every good word and work.

 Let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us,  and establish the work of our hands for us. 

As He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct. § He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked… If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness is born of Him. § Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing, but keeping the commandments of God is what matters. § Whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all. Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think of anything as being from ourselves, but our sufficiency is from God. § Teach me, O Lord, the way of Your statutes. Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure. § The God of peace … make[s] you complete in every good work to do His will, working in you what is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ.

 I am the Lord your God: Walk in My statutes, keep My judgments, and do them. 

Become complete. Be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you. By grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. § Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning. Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure. § Be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. § [Be] filled with the fruits of righteousness which are by Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God. Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think of anything as being from ourselves, but our sufficiency is from God.

 The God of peace … make you complete in every good work to do His will. 

It pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell, and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself. § Mercy and truth have met together; righteousness and peace have kissed. I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil. § “Come now, and let us reason together,” says the Lord, “though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool.” § Who is a God like You, pardoning iniquity? § Now acquaint yourself with Him, and be at peace. § Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure. § Lord, You will establish peace for us, for You have also done all our works in us.

 God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them. 

Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think of anything as being from ourselves, but our sufficiency is from God. § A man can receive nothing unless it has been given to him from heaven. § No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day. § I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear Me forever. Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning. Of His own will He brought us forth by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of His creatures. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. Lord, You will establish peace for us, for You have also done all our works in us.

 It is God who works in you. 

He has shown you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God? § Has the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed than the fat of rams. § To love Him with all the heart, with all the understanding, with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love one’s neighbor as oneself, is more than all the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices. So you, by the help of your God, return; observe mercy and justice, and wait on your God continually. § Mary … sat at Jesus’ feet and heard His word … “One thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her.” It is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.

 To do righteousness and justice is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice. 

I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” § Who has performed and done it, calling the generations from the beginning? “I, the Lord, am the first; and with the last I am He.” Sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ. The God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it. § He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ. § Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect by the flesh?§ The Lord will perfect that which concerns me. It is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.

Evening Daily Light

 Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith. 

The Helper, the Holy Spirit. § Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? § It is God who works in you. We do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God. He knows our frame; He remembers that we are dust. § A bruised reed He will not break, and smoking flax He will not quench. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters.

 The Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. 

If only I may touch His garment, I shall be made well. § “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.” … “I am willing; be cleansed.” § Faith as a mustard seed. Do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward. § Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure. First the blade, then the head, after that the full grain in the head. § Let us know, let us pursue the knowledge of the Lord. § The kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force. § Run in such a way that you may obtain it. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day.

 Hold fast what you have, that no one may take your crown. 

<blockquote>
He has created us through our union with Christ Jesus for doing good deeds which He beforehand planned for us to do" (<a id="verse_1632879398578142" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Ephesians/2/10">Eph. 2:10</a>, Wms.).
</blockquote>The turning point in our Christian life comes when we begin to "let God be God," the day we throw all caution (fear) to the winds and look to Him to carry out His purpose for us in His own time and way."Our Father never does a thing suddenly: He has always prepared long, long before. So there is nothing to murmur about, nothing to be proud of, in the calling of God. There is also no one of whom to be jealous, for other people's advantages have nothing to do with us. It is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that hath mercy' (<a id="verse_1632879398528906" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Romans/9/16">Rom. 9:16</a>). Our heritage, our birth, our natural equipment: these are things already determined by God. We may pick up other things in the way, for we are always learning; but the way is His way. When we look back over our life, we bow and acknowledge that all was prepared of God. To have such an attitude of heart, that is true rest." -W.N."Let us take care lest we get out of soul-rest in seeking further blessing. God cannot work whilst we are anxious, even about our spiritual advance. Let us take Him at His Word, and leave the fulfillment of it to Him.""For it is God Himself whose power creates within you the desire to do His gracious will and also brings about the accomplishment of the desire" (<a id="verse_1632879398186583" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Philippians/2/13">Phil. 2:13</a>, Wey.).

A 365 day devotional that will help you in your Christian growth and walk with the Lord Jesus Christ.  This devotional is a collection of quotes from some of the best authors in the realm of Christian growth that has been organized by Miles J Stanford.  This devotional study is divided into 12 sections each containing 31 daily portions.

None but the Hungry Heart

 Rest In Him 

<blockquote>
Having died to that wherein we were held; so that we serve in newness of the spirit, and not in oldness of the letter" (<a id="verse_1632879499301271" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Romans/7/6">Rom. 7:6</a>, ASV).
</blockquote>The law was applied to the natural man, that he might produce; grace is given to the spiritual man, that He might produce."Almost every believer makes the same mistake as the Galatian Christians. Very few learn at conversion at once that it is only by faith that we stand, and walk, and live. They have no conception of the meaning of the Word about being dead to the law, freed from the law - about the freedom with which Christ makes us free (<a id="verse_1632879499359985" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Romans/7/6">Rom. 7:6</a>). Regarding the law as a divine ordinance for our direction, they consider themselves prepared and fitted by conversion to take up the fulfillment of the law as a natural duty. They cannot understand that it is not to the law, but to a living Person, that we are now bound, and that our obedience and growth are only possible by the unceasing faith in His power and life ever working in us (<a id="verse_1632879499594839" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Philippians/2/13">Phil. 2:13</a>)." -A.M."Good and holy and perfect as the law of God is, it is entirely powerless either to justify or sanctify. It cannot in any way make the old nature better; neither is it the rule of the new nature. The old man is not subject to it, and the new man does not need it. The new creation has another object before it, and another power that acts upon it, in order to produce what is lovely and acceptable to God - Christ the object, realized by the power of the Holy Spirit." -W.K."Not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life" (<a id="verse_1632879499134054" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Hebrews/7/16">Heb. 7:16</a>).

 Freedom To "Be" 

<blockquote>
So then let us once for all quit the elementary teaching about Christ and continue progressing; toward maturity" (<a id="verse_1632879763842992" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Hebrews/6/1">Heb. 6:1</a>, Wms.).
</blockquote>When the standard of the Christian life is low, the responsibility for growth is placed upon the believer. But when it is known that God's standard for us is His Son, all expectation of maturity must be placed in Him - "for it is God which worketh in us both to will and to do of His good pleasure" (<a id="verse_1632879763144913" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Philippians/2/13">Phil. 2:13</a>)."The Lord Jesus Christ is the Christian's very life, and the Holy Spirit dwells within our spirit to manifest Him, to work out all that is in Him and to reproduce Him in us. We must remember that there is something in the sight of God that is higher than work. There is Christ-likeness. That is our Father's purpose, and it is His work." -A.M."It is not great talents God blesses so much as great likeness to the Lord Jesus. A holy ministry is an awful weapon in the hands of God." -R.M.Mc."In a great many evangelical churches the Gospel of salvation is magnificently presented, seekers are led to Christ; but the totality of the Gospel, the Gospel in its ultimate category, is by no means so clearly presented, nor maybe even understood by teacher as well as pupil. It is evidenced by exhortation to Christian living being mainly challenges to pray more, study more, give more, witness more, surrender more. The emphasis is predominantly on the active dedication of the Christian to his Lord, and to a much less degree on the dynamic remolding of the believer by his Lord.""For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus" (<a id="verse_1632879763386529" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Ephesians/2/10">Eph. 2:10</a>).

 One Standard - Christ 

<blockquote>
For it is God who works in you both will and deed" (<a id="verse_1632880407631087" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Philippians/2/13">Phil. 2:13</a>, Cony.)
</blockquote>As we mature we come to see more and more clearly that our Father just as fully controls our lives as He does the universe. As C.A. Fox said, "Climb on, and you will find the correcting, the chastening, the cleansing, the calming of the deep affection of God.""All the testing and trying is to first deal with, by the Cross, that which can never stand the stress and which must be forever failure to the Lord, and then to develop that which is Christ within us. That is the spiritual life - Christ in us in all His fulness. I will make him a pillar.' I will write upon him the name of my God.' He is going to do it. All the striving will never bring that end about, but He will do it."The great majority of us would say, If it all depends on me, then it is a bad lookout!' Well, of course, that is true, but let us look at the blessing of Joseph - 'The arms of his hands were made strong, by the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob . . . even by the God of thy father' (<a id="verse_1632880407904830" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Genesis/49/24">Gen. 49:24</a>; <a id="verse_1632880407982654535" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Genesis/49/25">25</a>)." -C.O."Let a man renounce himself, and see himself as crucified with Christ, and soon another Himself - the Lord Jesus Christ - will take the central place in the heart, and quietly bring all things under His sway.""It is a great thing to offer the Lord Jesus Christ as the Saviour to sinful man, but it is still greater to express Him in a world where He is rejected." -J.B.S."According as His divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness" (<a id="verse_1632880407793076" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/2-Peter/1/3">2 Pet. 1:3</a>).

 God Will Do It 

<blockquote>Oh, wretched man that I am! Who shall deliver me from the body of this death?" (<a id="verse_1632877325574875" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Romans/7/24">Rom. 7:24</a>).</blockquote>As sinners, the law revealed our need of deliverance from the penalty of sin; as believers, the law reveals our need of deliverance from the power of sin."Our Father knows that we are weakness incarnate; that we can do nothing. The trouble is that we do not know it. He must bring us all to the place where we see that we are utterly weak and helpless."The more we try to keep the law the more our weakness is manifested and the deeper we get into Romans Seven, until it is clearly demonstrated to us that we are hopelessly weak. The Father knew it all the time, but we did not, and so He has to bring us through painful experiences to a recognition of the fact."It is God who worketh in you' (<a id="verse_1632877325688450" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Philippians/2/13">Phil 2:13</a>). Deliverance from law does not mean that we are free from doing the will of our Father. It certainly does not mean that we are going to be lawless. Quite the opposite! What it does mean however is that we are free from doing that will as of ourselves."Being fully persuaded that we cannot do it, we cease trying to please God from the ground of the old man. Having at least reached the point of utter despair in ourselves so that we cease even to try, we put our trust in the Lord Jesus to manifest His resurrection life in and through us, that the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit' (<a id="verse_1632877325957300" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Romans/8/4">Rom. 8:4</a>).""What would be effected by the law, if all its commands and precepts were carried out and maintained? It would form man in the flesh; it would make Adam what he ought to be for God in the world. The law would form Adam in us." -C.A.C."I thank God through Jesus Christ, our Lord" (<a id="verse_1632877325184348" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Romans/7/25">Rom. 7:25</a>).

 From Law To Life 

<blockquote>Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest" (<a id="verse_1632877361782296" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Matthew/11/28">Matt. 11:28</a>).</blockquote>Hard as it is for the believer to finally come to rest concerning his spiritual birth, it seems to be even more difficult for him to simply rest in the Lord Jesus for his life and service."There are two stages in the Christian life. The one in which, after conversion, a believer seeks to work what God would have him do. The second, in which, after many a painful failure, he ceases from his works, and enters the rest of God, there to find the power for work in allowing the Father to work in him."It is this rest from their own work which many Christians cannot understand. They think of it as a state of passive and selfish enjoyment, of still contemplation which leads to the neglect of the duties of life, and unfits us for that watchfulness and warfare to which Scripture calls. What an entire misunderstanding of God's call to rest!"Truly to rest in God is to yield oneself up to the highest activity. We work, because He worketh in us both to will and to do (<a id="verse_1632877361295823" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Philippians/2/13">Phil. 2:13</a>). As Paul says of himself, I labor, striving according to his working who worketh in me with might' (<a id="verse_1632877361626633" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Colossians/1/29">Col. 1:29</a>). Entering the rest of God is the ceasing from self-effort, and the yielding of oneself in the full surrender of faith to God's working." -A.M."Not only does the Lord Jesus live in us, but He becomes the motivating Object of our life as Christians. The law is no longer our motive or rule of life. It is entirely displaced by a Person, and that Person the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.' Henceforth the soul has a new center and source - it is no longer self-centered, but Christ-centered." -C.A.C."Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart, and ye shall find rest unto your souls" (<a id="verse_1632877361972031" href="https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/Matthew/11/29">Matt. 11:29</a>).

From Wikipedia: 

The New International Version (NIV) is an English translation of the Bible first published in 1978 by Biblica (formerly the International Bible Society). The NIV was published to meet the need for a modern translation done by Bible scholars using the earliest, highest quality manuscripts available. Of equal importance was that the Bible be expressed in broadly understood modern English.

The NIV is published by Zondervan in the United States and Hodder & Stoughton in the UK. The NIV was updated in 1984 and 2011 and has become one of the most popular and best-selling modern translations.
