Be A New LUMP
SEPTEMBER 1, 2022
Daily Reading – Psa. 119:1-88 / 1 Co. 5
WHAT GOD HAS SAID:
1 Corinthians 5:7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:
WHAT I HAVE SEEN:
When Paul wrote today’s verse, he was writing to the entire Church of Corinth. He was warning them about sin in the church. However, the church is made up of people. We as individuals should also be asking ourselves, what old leaven, or old ways in my life should I purge, or change so as to be a new LUMP?
I took the word “LUMP” and made an acrostic to help us consider it.
- First, L is for LOVE. How may I not be loving as I should?
- U is for UNBELIEF. Where might my faith be lacking?
- M is for MINISTRY. God, where should I be serving you?
- Finally, P is for PRAISE. Do I praise God enough?
Let’s get rid of the old leaven in our lives to help make our churches what God wants them to be.
WHAT WILL YOU DO:
Are you the right type of LUMP?
