And this is my prayer: that your love may abound
more and more in knowledge and depth of insight. Philippians 1:9
How to abide in Christ
• Meet God in the morning.
• Commit to 100% obedience.
• Meditate on God’s word through the day.
Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact
you are doing. 1 Thessalonians 5:11 (NIV)
Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your
mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that
it may benefit those who listen. Ephesians 4:29 (NIV)
Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your
mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that

But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called
“Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s
deceitfulness. Hebrews 3:13
And let us consider how we may spur one another on
toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting
together,
as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one
another—and all the more as you see the Day
approaching. Hebrews 10:24–25
When he came to Jerusalem, he tried to join the disciples,
but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he
really was a disciple.
But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles. He
told them how Saul on his journey had seen the Lord and
that the Lord had spoken to him,
and how in Damascus he had preached fearlessly in the name
of Jesus. So Saul stayed with them and moved about freely in
Jerusalem, speaking boldly in the name of the Lord. Acts 9:26–28
(NIV)
The Lord’s hand was with them, and a great number of
people believed and turned to the Lord.
News of this reached the church in
Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to
Antioch.
When he arrived and saw what the grace of God had done, he was glad and encouraged
them all to remain true to the Lord with all their hearts. He
was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and
faith,
and a great number of people were
brought to the Lord. Then Barnabas
went to Tarsus to look for Saul, and
when he found him, he brought him to
Antioch.
So for a whole year Barnabas and Saul
met with the church and taught great numbers of
people. The disciples were
called Christians first at Antioch. Acts 11:21–26
(NIV)
Move toward others move away•Then Barnabas went
to Tarsus to look for Saul, and when he found him, he brought him to Antioch. Acts 11:25
Lift up when others put down• Joseph, a Levite from
Cyprus, whom the apostles called Barnabas (which means “son of encouragement”), Acts 4:36 (NIV)
Accept when others reject• But Barnabas took him and brought
him to the apostles. He told them how Saul on his journey had seen the Lord and that the Lord had spoken to him, and how in Damascus he had preached fearlessly in the name of Jesus. So Saul stayed with them and moved about freely in Jerusalem, speaking boldly in the name of the Lord. Acts 9:27-28 (NIV2011)
Believe in when others don’t• Barnabas wanted to take John, also
called Mark, with them, but Paul did not think it wise to take him, because he had deserted them in Pamphylia and had not continued with them in the work. They had such a sharp disagreement that they parted company. Barnabas took Mark and sailed for Cyprus, but Paul chose Silas and left, commended by the believers to the grace of the Lord. Acts 15:37–40 (NIV)
Risk when others play it safe.

All to Jesus I surrender
All to Him I freely give
I will ever love and trust Him
In His presence daily live

Fill me with Thy love and power
Let Thy blessing fall on me
