Theme for the Week: SOLIDARITY IN CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP
Topic: Seek Each Other's Interest
Reading: Philippians 2:2-5
Philippians 2:3-4 (NIV)
³Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves,
⁴not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.
Christian fellowship is incomplete without seeking the interest of each others. When we look out for other's interest, we are seen as a unified body.
Seeking each other's interest is a way of proving that we have greater love (see John 15:13). Unlike the heathens love which is selfish, always seeking to gain something more, the Christian love expects nothing more than the fellowship.
One way to fulfill Jesus' prayer in John 17:20-21 that we be one is to seek each other's interest. Let us embrace this call and make the joy of Christ complete.
Stay blessed! Shalom.
Let's Pray
Almighty God, be praised forever. Lord, may the interest of other brethren be my interest, in Jesus' name. Amen.
