Memorisation Monday

5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:

6 Who, being in very nature God,
    did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;

Philippians 2:5-6

We are memorising Philippians 2:5-11. It’s an incredibly important passage of Scripture. Thought to be one of the earliest pieces of oral history, this articulation of the gospel is rich in theological gold.

Verse 6 captures the nature of the one who came to save us. He was God. The eternal, almighty second person of the Trinity. He left the comforts and pleasures of heaven for the sake of sinners.

He who was rich for our sake became poor. So that we could be rich in His blessings.

Questions/Thoughts/Tips:

• Say the passage out loud 10 times in a row.
• Say it once before you go to sleep.
• Say it once more when you wake up.

Pray:
Praise the Father that He is God and the glorious Father. Give thanks for Jesus Christ who is also God, the glorious Son. Ask God for His Holy Spirit who is also God, the glorious Spirit to help you and others know God better.
