Week 91 Day 1: Righteousness through Faith ⇧ ⇩
Question
When did the promise of being righteous through faith come about?
Scripture Reading
Meditation: God’s Story
-
The Galatian believers received their salvation through faith, not law.
-
The promise of being credited righteous by faith was given before the law. We don’t receive grace through law.
-
Law is to prepare us, as our guardian until Christ came that we might be justified by faith.
-
The spiritual growth of the Galatian church proved that they did so through faith not through law.
Meditation: My Story
- Walking with God - As the Galatian believers, our salvation and our spiritual growth proved that righteousness is gained through faith, not through law. Reflect to the day I became a believer and throughout my life, how God’s grace and blessings were given to me through my faith, not my conduct?
Prayer

Week 91 Day 2: Cherish the Freedom ⇧ ⇩
Question
How do we gain freedom through God’s promise?
Scripture Reading
Meditation: God’s Story
-
We became God’s children through His promises, not through our works of being slaves of the law.
-
Jesus Christ released us to grant us freedom. If we burden ourselves again by the yoke of slavery of the law, then Jesus’ redemption becomes meaningless.
-
In Christ, the only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love, not by bondage of the law.
-
In Christ, we wait eagerly through the Spirit by faith the righteousness for which we hope.
Meditation: My Story
-
Identity - What are the differences of being free children of God and being slaves under the law? Although I have not been through the law as the Israelites, are there other laws burdening me in my life that cause me to forget my status as a child of God and live like a slave?
-
Walking with God - A life freed from slavery expresses itself through love. What does a faith like this bring forth in my life? Reflect in my life, when have I seen the outcome of such faith?
Prayer

Week 91 Day 3: Of Fleshly Indulgence ⇧ ⇩
Question
How should we view the freedom God gave us?
Scripture Reading
Meditation: God’s Story
-
To be devoid of fleshly indulgence, we must follow the Spirit, live by the Spirit, and bear the fruit of the Spirit.
-
Follow the Spirit to do good to all people, carry each other’s burdens, love others, and thus fulfill the law of Christ.
-
Boast only in the cross of Christ and become a new creation.
Meditation: My Story
-
Community - What is the relationship with others like when one lives by the Spirit? I shall always go back to my relationship with God first to find an answer when I have problems in my relationships.
-
Integrity - How do the Spirit and flesh contradict each other? What real life example can I find on myself? What does this passage remind me of if the Spirit and my flesh are battling in me? Of the nine aspects of the fruit of the Spirit, which do I lack? Am I willing to rely on God to bear the fruit in me?
Prayer
Notes and Responses
Week 91 Day 4: The Spiritual Inheritance ⇧ ⇩
Question
What is the spiritual inheritance of a Christian?
Scripture Reading
Meditation: God’s Story
-
As our inheritance, our election by the riches of His grace in Jesus Christ, redemption by Christ’s blood, and adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit is the proof of our inheritance from God.
-
The inheritance from God allows us to connect with His power. And such is the same power that raised Christ Jesus from death. Only when God enlightens the eyes of my heart I would know truly and rely on His incomparably great power.
-
God blessed us in heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ for us to be holy and blameless so that He would be praised for His glory.
Meditation: My Story
-
Identity - Pray to the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. Do I truly know Him? Do I truly know He gave us the inheritance? Do I truly rely on Him? Even though I claim to know Him but do I often prioritize worldly inheritance over the heavenly one and relying on human power more than His? Let me pray to God to open the eyes of my heart to truly know Him.
-
Integrity - The purpose of the blessings we receive from God is not to glorify us but by His calling that we may live out the life of Christ so that His glorious grace may be praised.
Prayer

Week 91 Day 5: Unity in God ⇧ ⇩
Question
What is the life of Christ’s ambassador?
Scripture Reading
Meditation: God’s Story
-
By His work on the cross, Jesus Christ unified the Jews and the Gentiles into one to create a new people. This work of Jesus’ alone brought the Gentiles who had no part in God into His kingdom to receive His inheritance.
-
By His work on the cross, Jesus destroyed the wall between the Jews and the Gentiles so that we are not defined and separated by our races, accomplishments, or background. Instead, we are unified as one in the Lord.
Meditation: My Story
-
Identity - Jesus through His works on the cross gave us a new identity: People of God. What do I see as important identities in my daily life, occupation, politics, country, race, heritage, or family? We can only cause isolation if too much emphasis is placed on any of these identities. Only when we place the utmost importance our identity as People of God, we would then be able to connect with God and unite with others through Him.
-
Community - Jesus through His works on the cross put to death the hostility between us and God. He brought together the ever-contentious Jews and Gentiles to unite them into one people. What hostility do I have still toward others?
Prayer

Week 91 Day 6: All Work Together ⇧ ⇮
Question
What is our responsibility in God’s Kingdom?
Scripture Reading
Meditation: God’s Story
-
God’s calling to Paul was to make the Gentiles disciples and through Jesus Christ made known to him the mystery to unit Jews and Gentiles with God. For this reason, Paul was not afraid of facing life threatening dangers that encouraged the troubled Ephesians believers. Because he knew for our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.
-
According to God’s design, His power is displayed through and in all believers. In one way, it is through the spiritual gifts to each held together by every supporting ligament, at the same time, of the same body, same spirit, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, and one God being the foundation of all disciples’ unity.
-
It is The Holy Spirit gives us the gift of unity but it is up to us to make every effort to keep the unity.
Meditation: My Story
-
Community - God does not want a growth just for us as individuals but one with Christ being the head, church being the body, and all disciples connect to Christ together growing as one. Am I willing to accept help and assistance from others or just mind my own business? How should I grow with others to understand the vastness and the depth of God’s love?
-
Fidelity - The gifts God gives to individuals are to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up. Therefore, we would see ourselves without bias and put ourselves to proper use as God intended only if we view our gifts through the viewpoint of building up Christ’s body. How am I seeing my gifts?
