2 Corinthians 2:5-17 "But if any have caused grief , he hath..." KJV - Online Bible Study But if any have caused grief , he hath not grieved me, but in part: that I may not overcharge youall. 6 Sufficient to such a man is this punishment, which was inflicted of many. 7 So thatcontrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow. 8 Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm your lovetoward him. 9 For to this end also did I write , that I might know the proof of you, whether ye beobedient in all things. 10 To whom ye forgive any thing, I forgive also: for if I forgave any thing, towhom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ; 11 Lest Satan should get an advantage of us : for we are not ignorant of his devices. 12 Furthermore, when I came to Troas topreach Christ's gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord, 13 I had no rest in my spirit,because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from thence intoMacedonia. 14 Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, andmaketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. 15 For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved , and in them that perish : 16 To the one we are thesavour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient forthese things? 17 For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, butas of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.

Daily Word The Joy of Jesus Today

Home | Daily Word: "WORRY-FREE
I release every concern and move forward with faith in God.
How often have I spent precious moments of my time worrying about something that never came to be? Worry is a conscious choice, but is it a constructive way to spend my day?

Today I choose to refrain from worry and live in faith. Faith is the opposite of worry for faith allows me to let go of what is troubling me and release it to God. Through faith in God, I experience the joy of the present moment. Through faith in God, I am free from stress or concern.

I cannot predict what will happen to me or my loved ones on any given day, but I can make the choice to be positive and worry-free. By doing so, I move forward in faith, living in the moment and trusting God for right outcomes.

Therefore I tell you, do not worry.--Matthew 6:25"

Daily Word The Joy of Jesus

Home | Daily Word: "PRAY FOR OTHERS
The power of prayer strengthens us all.
Knowing that someone is praying for me encourages me to believe that good is unfolding in my life. Whether I am heading out for a job interview, facing a health issue, or caring for a loved one, it is good to know I have a praying friend holding me up. This turns me away from worry and opens me to the power of affirmative prayer.

Positive prayer energy moves through us as a blessing. It feels good to be spiritually centered, affirming the power and presence of God in our lives. The power of prayer does not change God; prayer inspires and strengthens those who are praying and those who are held in prayer. In the partnership of prayer, all receive benefit from the affirmation of God's indwelling presence.

This is what we pray for, that you may become perfect.--2 Corinthians 13:9"
