Scripture –
For I determined to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ, and Him crucified. I was with you in weakness and in fear and in much trembling,
and my message and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
so that your faith would not rest on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.
1 Corinthians 2: 2-5
Me propuse más bien, estando entre ustedes, no saber de cosa alguna, excepto de Jesucristo, y de éste crucificado. Es más, me presenté ante ustedes con tanta debilidad que temblaba de miedo. No les hablé ni les prediqué con palabras sabias y elocuentes sino con demostración del poder del Espíritu, para que la fe de ustedes no dependiera de la sabiduría humana sino del poder de Dios.
1 Corintios 2: 2-5 (NVI)

Scripture –
So, for my part, I am eager to preach the gospel to you....
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "BUT THE RIGHTEOUS man SHALL LIVE BY FAITH."
Romans 1: 15-17

Scripture –
For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, and you have been given fullness in Christ, who is the head over every power and authority. In him you were also circumcised, in the putting off of the sinful nature, not with a circumcision done by the hands of men but with the circumcision done by Christ, having been buried with him in baptism and raised with him through your faith in the power of God, who raised him from the dead.
When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, having canceled the written code, with its regulations, that was against us and that stood opposed to us; he took it away, nailing it to the cross. And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.
Colossians 2:9-15

Monday Living Water
Find a quiet moment, a quiet spot!
Lets begin by yielding ourselves to God, and asking Him to speak.
Remember, we are not in a hurry. This is a time of contemplation, a time to reflect and carry His Word with you through the day. What does it say, how will I live in light of these truths? Whom can I share with?
Scripture-
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
to obtain an inheritance which is imperishable and undefiled and will not fade away, reserved in heaven for you,
who are protected by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
1 Peter 1:3-5
