Paul writes to the Galatians…

Galatians 6:9 And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.

The title of the message this morning is, “Don’t give up—look up and live up.” That is—when things get difficult—when it seems like there’s no fruit for all your labor in the Lord’s work—don’t give up—but look up to God and live up to His calling.

I’ve been enjoying the English Standard Version for my personal reading and study for several months now. I’ve found it to be a very readable and solid translation–literal in it’s translation like the NASB but more readable.

Adrian Warnock posted 10 Questions for the ESV translators and there are now answers being made available on at the ESV blog.

Philippians 4:20 Now to our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen. 21 Greet every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren who are with me greet you. 22 All the saints greet you, but especially those who are of Caesar’s household. 23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

Let’s look at the scriptures together—Philippians 4:14-19.

Philippians 4:14 - Nevertheless you have done well that you shared in my distress. 15 Now you Philippians know also that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with me concerning giving and receiving but you only. 16 For even in Thessalonica you sent aid once and again for my necessities. 17 Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that abounds to your account. 18 Indeed I have all and abound. I am full, having received from Epaphroditus the things sent from you, a sweet-smelling aroma, an acceptable sacrifice, well pleasing to God. 19 And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
