Gen 26:24-25
And the LORD appeared to him the same night and said, “I am the God of Abraham your father. Fear not, for I am with you and will bless you and multiply your offspring for my servant Abraham’s sake.” So he built an altar there and called upon the name of the LORD and pitched his tent there. And there Isaac’s servants dug a well. ESV


Crossing The OTHER Side

The Bible calls us to LOVE people even as Christ first LOVED us.

“I don’t know what your destiny will be, but one thing I know: the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who have sought and found how to serve.”

If there is partnership and we are partakers, then what is being produced?


Philippians 2:1–4
Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from His love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, 2 thenbeing like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. NIV

It’s not “ME” or “WE” but “HE”.

The Bible is calling us to HELP OTHERS and HONOR GOD.

Helping people is not a detour to our destiny, but a direct route.


Philippians 2:14
Do everything without grumbling or arguing, NIV

1. Serve Others And God Will Take Care Of You

Philippians 2:3-4
3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, 4 not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. NIV

Self-Interest is a black hole but selflessness overflows.

2. Bless Others And God Will Bless You

Philippians 2:3-4
3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, 4 not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. NIV

You are blessed to be a blessing.

3. Fill The Cups of Others and God Will Fill Your Cup

Philippians 2:3-4
3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, 4 not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. NIV

God has more CREDITS than we have DEFICITS.


Philippians 2:5-8
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; 7 rather, He made Himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. 8 And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to death — even death on a cross! NIV

The Kingdom of God is spelled with 6 letters: O-T-H-E-R-S

Jesus crossed the other side by being on the cross for others.
