1 Corinthians 12:26, One Member Be Honoured

Posted on Posted in Devotions Tagged with , ,

1 Corinthians 12:26 … or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.

William MacDonald said well, “… if we see another Christian honoured, we should not feel jealous, but we should rejoice with him.”

There is a sense that the members of Christ’s body love the prosperity of the other members. It is understood principally that God distributes spiritual gifts sovereignly according to His good will and wisdom. As such members are at peace because they submit to the common wisdom that God knows better. As such, there is a willingness to submit to God’s wisdom.

To rejoice with the members in honour is a natural spiritual response. Thank God for honouring His faithful ones. Amen.
