Today’s Thought “The Church Universal” G. Ward

“For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.” Philippians 1:6

The Apostle Paul penned a letter unto the Philippians to thank them for the generosity shown him when others refused. His encouragement sought to keep the gospel message progressive, even if at the expense of his personal welfare (Phil.1:13-14). As we celebrate another Resurrection Day today, I believe it’s incumbent on us to reflect on yesterday’s continuity shared in messaging from church house to church house. What is the most important celebratory, eventful day in believer-ship causes great invitation unto those who wouldn’t worship ordinarily. The after-party’s contingency for success (i.e. witnessing furtherance in worship from the infrequent) is follow-up through hospitality (cf. Mt.28:19) from believers. It’s fervent prayer vs. castigation that will help usher a proposed practice in fellowship (Heb. 10:25), vowed by the infrequent on yesterday, that will demand from all the actuality in 364 more Resurrection Days ahead…

Happy Monday!
