What would the church look like if everyone imitated your walk?

[Scripture in Short @scripturenshort]

Ascribe to the LORD glory,
worship him.
The voice of the LORD over the waters,
thunders, flashes fire,
powerful, majestic.
It breaks cedars, moves mountains,
births deer, strips forests;
all cry, “Glory!”
He reigns over all forever;
give us strength, peace!

Rejoice! Put no confidence in the flesh. I have reason to, but count all as rubbish to gain Christ, righteous through faith, so I can rise again.
I don't have this yet, but press on to the prize. Imitate me. Many are earthly-minded. We, heavenly, wait for Jesus.

#Philippians3

#Isaiah61 #OneVerseSummary

“to grant to those who mourn in Zion—
to give them a beautiful headdress instead of ashes,
the oil of gladness instead of mourning,
the garment of praise instead of a faint spirit;
that they may be called oaks of righteousness…” - Isaiah 61:3

You’re God’s blessed ministers.

#Isaiah61 #8WordEssence

[Scripture in Short @scripturenshort]

God is on me
to preach liberty and his favor;
to give gladness for mourning.

Nations will serve you
as honored priests.
I’ll reward them;
they’ll be known as blessed.
Praise God for salvation;
he’ll make righteousness sprout.
