1 Corinthians 14 - Praying God's Word

Please read 1 Corinthians 14.

Meditate on verses 33 and 40.

For God is not a God of confusion but of peace,

as in all the churches of the saints.

But all things must be done properly

 and in an orderly manner.

1 Corinthians 14 is one of those chapters in the Bible that can create controversy among Christians to the delight of nonbelievers. So when God wanted Paul to write about concerns that were causing division in the church, He had him remind the believers about who God is. God is a God of peace, and church should be a place where things are done properly and in an orderly manner. It should not be confusing to go to church. (If your church is confusing, do not quit attending. As a member of the body, teach your church this truth from God’s Word.)

God is a God of peace. When you are controlled by the God of peace, your home, your church, and your life should be functioning in an orderly, proper manner.

Pray about areas where you need the God of peace to take control. Be obedient to His instruction and pray 1 Corinthians 14:20 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

 “LORD, help ________ and me not be children in our thinking;

 yet in evil let us be infants,


but in our thinking make us mature.

In Your name, Jesus~”
