Scripture References

Philippians 4

Philippians 2:4 “Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.”

See it as serving the LORD1 Sam 12: 24 - “But be sure to fear the LORD and serve him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things he has done for you.”

Psalm 1 Blessed is the man

    who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,

nor stands in the way of sinners,

    nor sits in the seat of scoffers;

2 but his delight is in the law of the Lord,

    and on his law he meditates day and night.

3 He is like a tree

    planted by streams of water

that yields its fruit in its season,

    and its leaf does not wither.

In all that he does, he prospers.

4 The wicked are not so,

    but are like chaff that the wind drives away.

5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,

    nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;

6 for the Lord knows the way of the righteous,

    but the way of the wicked will perish.
