Galatians 6 ~ Praying Scripture

Please read Galatians 6.

Meditate on verse 3.

For if anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing,

 he deceives himself.

What do you take pride in? Some people in the Galatian churches were proud when they compelled Gentile believers to be circumcised or keep other parts of the Law.  They desired to be influential even if it meant influencing others into the slavery that was life apart from Christ.

What do you take pride in, and do you use your influence to feed your pride?  Do you influence people to even join you in sin to justify your behavior in your own mind?

Paul was proud of the cross of Christ.  All that mattered was being a new creation as a result of what Christ did on that cross (Galatians 6:14-15).  Paul used his influence to establish others in that truth.

Pray Galatians 6:14 over yourself and those for whom you are standing guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman  (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“Lord, through Your cross, Jesus Christ,

let ___________ and me be crucified to the world

and the world to us. 

May we boast only in You and Your cross.

For the sake of Your Name, Lord Jesus Christ~”
