Lectionary, October 21/12

Nutshell
The feelings of superiority, the feelings of rejection and wanting to get even, the feelings that you deserve better than everyone else, really come from  the devil and Jesus freed us from them. We can go boldly to God, repenting of those thoughts and emotions and receive the help we need to overcome them and be filled with the nature of Christ instead.

Psalm 91: 9-16
No evil will conquer you. No bad attitude which is from the devil can come upon you . You have the nature of Christ, for He dwells in you! The Lord says that He will rescue those who love Him. He will rescue you from the fear and bad emotions that the devil tries to burden you with.
The Lord says- I will satisfy you because I love you, I will satisfy your thirst, your hunger- for food, for good news, for answers, for happy feelings, for inspiration, for love, for success. I am He who made you, I love you and want you to be fulfilled and happy.

Hebrews 6: 1-20
We can trust God to fulfill His promises to us. We are confident that He will do it and that confidence is like a strong anchor for our souls. This confidence leads us through the veil into the Holy of Holies where God is. Jesus went in before us preparing the way, so we can go into the presence of God knowing that He will grant us our requests.

Psalm 91: 31
I will fill my heart with God's promises to me so I will ever be encouraged to do good and forget the wrong ways. God's Spirit will bring the peace of Christ into my heart and will transform my heart into that of Christ.

Genesis 14: 17-24
Even when Abram could have taken advantage over others, he still remained humble and did only what God told him to do.

John 13: 1-17
Show love to each other, for that is the path of blessing. If you chase after the comforts of this world, and manage to heap up many of them in your life time, you will not possess the true riches. Give to others in need and you will be truly blessed!

Mark 10: 35-45
The leader of all is the servant of all.
