God Today Devotions
But we have this treasure in
earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of
us. We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed,
but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not
destroyed, always carrying about in the body they dying of the Lord Jesus,
that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body. For we who live
are always delivered to death for Jesus' sake, that the life of Jesus also
may be manifested in our mortal flesh. So then death is working in us, but
life in you. And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what
is written, I believed and therefore I spoke, we also believe and
therefore speak, knowing that He who raised up the Lord Jesus will also
raise us up with Jesus, and will present us with you. For all things are
for your sakes, that grace, having spread through the many, may cause
thanksgiving to abound to the glory of God.
