1 Corinthians 10 - Praying God's Word

Please read 1 Corinthians 10.

Meditate on verse 31.

Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do,

do all to the glory of God.

1 Corinthians 10 is rich with truth. Here are some of the fascinating facts.

The Rock in the wilderness from which the Israelites drank water was Jesus (1 Corinthians 10:4; Exodus 17:6; Numbers 20:11-12). Ponder that fact as it will give you new insight as to why God did not let Moses enter the Promised Land after he struck the Rock, Jesus, twice. The Rock had been stricken once (Exodus 17:6); He was not to be struck again.

The Old Testament, filled with examples of what makes God angry, was written for your instruction, so you do not crave evil things (1 Corinthians 10:6-11). God creates a way of escape especially for you in every temptation (1 Corinthians 10:13). Fix your eyes on Jesus and His righteous path of escape. Flee from sin!

These are just a few of the precious, life-changing truths. Reread the chapter and ask God to reveal other treasures.

Pray 1 Corinthians 10:24, 31, and 33 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“LORD, help __________ and me not to seek our own good,

 but that of others.

 Whether, then, we eat or drink
or whatever we do,

 let us do all to the glory of You, God.

 Let us do things to please others,

 not seeking our own profit,

but the profit of the many,

 so they may be saved.


For the sake of Your name, Jesus~”
