"Even so you, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, let it be for the edification of the church that you seek to excel." 1 Corinthians 14:12. Why are we zealous for the spiritual gifts? For edifying the church excellently. Excellent. Why do we want to be excellent? What for? Who for? Why does motivation matter?
Oh God, You are so dedicated to us. Please, grow our devotion to You. Help us never to spend our love on worthless things. Keep Yourself foremost in our thoughts, feelings and doings. May we excel on behalf of the church. May we prefer one another, before preferring ourselves. Help us be like Jesus. Thank You for the extra measures of faith we always seem to need. You are our everything. We Love You LORD! We pray peace to Israel in the matchless name of Jesus and we ask excellence to be visited upon our every effort, in His name. Please keep us away from selfish ambition or ambitious leadership of any type. We want to be taught how to exactly, follow Jesus. Amen.
