In View of God's Mercies: The Gift of the Gospel in Romans

DAY 4 OF 5

Day 4: Thankful for You

Read Romans 1:8-15.

What Does It Say?

Paul didn’t see his potential trip to Rome as a one-way blessing. He knew that he, too, would be blessed. Paul demonstrated humility in his expectations to both give and receive, teach and learn, encourage and be encouraged, strengthen and be strengthened. We need to follow Paul’s example and adopt his humility in all of life, but especially in ministry.

What Does It Mean?

One reason we need to hear the gospel time and time again is that we are forgetful people. We need to be reminded of God’s love and grace every day. We need to be told over and over how to run to Him, rest in Him, obey Him and love Him. I encourage you to faithfully attend a church that proclaims the gospel. Surround yourself with friends who remind you of gospel truths. Preach the gospel to your soul. And run to God’s Word every day to hear the glorious truths of the gospel message again and again.

What Do I Do?

Look back at Paul’s words in verses 8-15. Perhaps there is a group of believers you feel similar toward. If so:

Why are you thankful for the relationship you have with them?

Think of four to six ways the believers in Rome and Paul might have “mutually encouraged” each other (v. 12). How do you both encourage and receive encouragement from others in the faith?

What is your prayer for these believers?

Think for a moment about the early Christians in Rome. Spend some time in prayer thanking God for their salvation. Ask Him to cultivate an even greater love in your heart for all of your brothers and sisters in the faith.
