My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong.”2 Corinthians 12:9-10 NLTWe would love to hear which of the 3 ways Amy shared you related to the most.

In this episode I am on my soapbox bringing to you my thoughts on what is self preservation and what it looks like for the believer.Scripture References:PHILIPPIANS 2:3-4 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.MATTHEW 20:28For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.”MATTHEW 16:24-25Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it".MATTHEW 5:13-16“You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people's feet. “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven. CONTACT DETAILSEmail us at francisdadreamer@gmail.com with your thoughts and comments.

Scripture References:Story of GideonJudges Chapter 6-8 Ephesians‬ ‭2:4-9‬ ‭ESV‬‬“But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ— by grace you have been saved— and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.”‭‭Psalm‬ ‭23:5‬ ‭ESV‬‬“You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.”‭‭2 Peter 1:3-4“His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence, by which he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world because of sinful desire.” Book References:Abiding in Christ - Andrew Murray

Scripture References:Matthew 22:34-4034 But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together. 35 And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question to test him. 36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” 37 And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. 38 This is the great and first commandment. 39 And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40 On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.”1 Kings 19 - Elijah gets rest and perspectiveSong of Encouragement: Brandon Lake and Tash Cobbs Leonard - Rattle!

Scripture Referenced:2 Corinthians 12:9-10 - TPT9 But he answered me, “My grace is always more than enough for you,[a] and my power finds its full expression through your weakness.” So I will celebrate my weaknesses, for when I’m weak I sense more deeply the mighty power of Christ living in me.[b] 10 So I’m not defeated by my weakness, but delighted!
