The Kitchen Table Devotional

1 Corinthians 9  Day 1

Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are you not my work in the Lord? 2 If to others I am not an apostle, at least I am to you; for you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.

1 Corinthians 9:1-2

Sin ties us to the soil, the earthly, the demonic.  When that happens drama quickly rules over direction.  All you can do is serve God faithfully and find peace in His faithfulness.  Notice, for Paul, it’s not about throwing dirt on his accusers but rather asking questions about his own activities.   Keep the main thing the main thing and focus on your calling, not others’ contempt.   Questions, not accusations, level the playing field and help us get to the truth.  Don’t let the devil use drama to divert you from God’s direction.
