Day 21

Philippians 3:4-6

In today’s passage Paul states all the reasons why he, if anyone, could have confidence in his righteousness before God because of obedience to the law and the works of the flesh.

What reasons does Paul give for why he could have confidence in the flesh?

Why would these things give Paul reason to have confidence in himself?

Why do you think Paul lists out these reasons?

What things are you tempted to boast in before God?

Today’s Prayer Suggestions

1. Give thanks to God that we no longer have to work for our salvation but are saved through trusting in Jesus’ finished work. Pray that you'd continue to put no confidence in the flesh.

2. It's a month since we had Man Camp. Pray for the men at Ann Street to continue to develop relationships of fellowship around God's Word that grows them to be like Jesus.

3. Pray that students Linda McKerrell mentors will be equipped to serve well cross-culturally.
