Prayer before the Word:

TODAY’S TOPIC: The Righteous shall live by faith
Text: Romans 1: 8-17 (NIV):
"1.8. First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being reported all over the world.
1:9. God, whom I serve with my whole heart in preaching the gospel of his Son, is my witness how constantly I remember you
1:10. in my prayers at all times; and I pray that now at last by God's will the way may be opened for me to come to you.
1:11. I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong--
1:12. that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith.1:13. I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, that I planned many times to come to you (but have been prevented from doing so until now) in order that I might have a harvest among you, just as I have had among the other Gentiles.
1:14. I am obligated both to Greeks and non-Greeks, both to the wise and the foolish.
1:15. That is why I am so eager to preach the gospel also to you who are at Rome.1:16. I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile.
1:17. For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: "The righteous will live by faith."
SHOWER (Reflection):
The righteous shall live by faith because they cast their hope, believe and all they have in Christ Jesus. However, the sinners chose to doing what will benefit or uplift them immediately. That is why they engage on all manner of things to succeed. A righteous man tries to do the will of God. By doing this, they are reunited with Jesus.
