Thank you for joining us for this great time of seeking the face of God on behalf of millions who have never heard the message of our Lord Jesus. Today is Day 9 of our Spiritual Adventure of getting to know and then actively praying for Northern Thailand Impact Ministry (NTIM) and all of the various unreached people groups in and around Northern Thailand.
Our last Prayer time focused our time of prayer on God’s Word changing the lives of people. Today we want to follow up on that concept and highlight what God says in His Word about what should be one of the main objectives of our lives.
When most people read 1 Corinthians 13 their thoughts begin to think about the husband and wife relationship but let me say very clearly that is now what the author of 1 Corinthians had in mind. The Apostle Paul was writing to the church in Corinth and explaining to them the kind of love that each of the church members should have toward one another. As followers of Jesus, we must love one another fervently. The Apostle Peter said in 1 Peter 1:22 “…fervently love one another….” Jesus also said in John 13:34-35 that the whole world would know that we are followers of Jesus, not by how much we know, not by our great skills and abilities, but Jesus said they would know we are followers of Jesus by our love for one another.
