Old Testament Scripture Reading: Psalms 16: 7 – 11 (KJV)

Psa 16:7  I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.

Psa 16:8  I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.

Psa 16:9  Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope.

Psa 16:10  For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

Psa 16:11  Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

New Testament Scripture Reading: Philippians 1:3 – 11 (KJV)

Php 1:3  I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,

Php 1:4  Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy,

Php 1:5  For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now;

Php 1:6  Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

Php 1:7  Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace.

Php 1:8  For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ.

Php 1:9  And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;

Php 1:10  That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ;

Php 1:11  Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

Transforming Power Statements:

1) Salvation is a complete new life beginning with being born from above (born again) and continuing on through all the days of your life, and impacting every area of life making the saved ones involved in constant improvement towards Christ-likeness.

2) God the Holy Spirit, Whom God supplies to each and every believer of the Gospel Of Jesus Christ, is always working within you to get all things about which He is concerned running in a way He has desired and that will ascribe Glory to His Holy Name.

3) Like the Psalmist we must keep our confidence in the fact that the promises of God shall surely come to pass, He Himself is the one who started the good work and He is the one who shall continue to do so even till the day of Christ Jesus!
