- of which I became a minister according to the stewardship from God which was given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God,
- the mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His saints.
- To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

ANGLICAN COMMUNION DEVOTIONAL OUTLINE FOR 8TH OCTOBER 2025.
As I waited for the ferry to arrive, I thought of the dangers of crossing the river in high current; I thought of the last time I passed this way and the ferry engine died in the middle of the journey. I thought of the terribly bad road I have to travel in for hours before getting to the more manageable section of the road back home. I had gone to preach and this was the only reason I was going through this experience. Paul the apostle knew this kind of hardship, even more. He endeavored to preach Christ in places where He had not been named; he (Paul) was in danger at sea, on land and even among the Jews; all for the Gospel.
Paul’s conviction and attitude to all his suffering is worth noting, worth emulating and worth preaching in today’s world filled with the Gospel of ‘no suffering, only physical prosperity.’ Hear him clearly saying: “I now rejoice in my suffering for you…for the sake of His body, which is the Church, of which I became a minister” (verses 24-25). Would you consider suffering discomfort for the sake of Christ a let-down? Can you endure hardship for the sake of the Gospel? What is your understanding of true spiritual prosperity? Remember, the mystery Paul talked about is ‘Christ in you, the hope of glory.’
PRAYER: Lord, may I yield to all You have for me in the Gospel, even if it involves some discomfort.
