ENEMIES OF COMFORT AND FAVOR

MONTHLY THEME: JESUS, MY COMFORT

THEME SCRIPTURE:
John 14:1
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me

Main Scripture:
Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: If riches increase, set not your heart upon them.(Psalm 62:10)

Reflection:
Doubt, impatience, and depending on worldly help stop us from finding true favor.

Trusting and walking in Jesus’ comfort helps us avoid these problems.

Supporting Scriptures for Prayer:

1.[14] Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests, [15] and said unto them, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver. [16] And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him.
(Matthew 26:14-16)

Prayer: Father in Heaven, Guard me from greed and betrayal that disrupt favor.

2.but the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away. (James 1:10)

Prayer: Father in Heaven, Free me from false security in riches or status.

3.[20] But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it; [21] yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.

(Matthew 13:20-21)

Prayer: Father in Heaven, Help me bear deep-rooted trust in You.
