Perfectly Joined Together in the Same Mind and in the Same Judgment

2 Chronicles 35:1–36:23 1 Corinthians 1:1-17 Psalm 27:1-6 Proverbs 20:20-21

Perfectly Joined Together in the Same Mind and in the Same Judgment
Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you. Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ. Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul? I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius; lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own name. And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other. For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect. – 1 Corinthians 1:10-17

The LORD Stirred Up the Spirit of Cyrus King of Persia
Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of the LORD spoken by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, the LORD stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying, Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth hath the LORD God of heaven given me; and he hath charged me to build him an house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Who is there among you of all his people? The LORD his God be with him, and let him go up. – 2 Chronicles 36:22-23

Whom Shall I Fear?
The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident. – Psalm 27:1-3

An Inheritance Gotten Hastily
An inheritance may be gotten hastily at the beginning; but the end thereof shall not be blessed. – Proverbs 20:21

An inheritance hastily gained [by greedy, unjust means] at the beginning Will not be blessed in the end. – Proverbs 20:21 AMP
