How are you living…righteous

How are you living…righteous...

There are six things which Jehovah hates; Yea, seven which are an abomination unto Him: Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, And hands that shed innocent blood; A heart that devises wicked purposes, Feet that are swift in running to mischief, A false witness that utters lies, And he that soweth discord among brethren...Proverbs 6:16-19.


But you are an elect race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God's own possession, that you may show forth the excellencies of Him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light: who in time past were no people, but now are the people of God: who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy...1 Peter 2:9-10.


For the grace of God hath appeared, bringing salvation to all men, instructing us, to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly and righteously and godly in this present world; looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ; who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto Himself a people for his own possession, zealous of good works...Titus 2:11-14.

 

As we practice living out the great commandments… to love God with all your heart, mind, soul, spirit, and strength and to love your neighbor as yourself (Mark 12:29-31)…let us do so in the spirit of Christ. Would you want the same judgement you placed on someone else? We are to be the light which reproves the darkness making others consider becoming a follower of Jesus. We are chosen priesthood let us be zealous for doing right and practicing what is true. For God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power, love, and sound mind.

 

Prayer

Father help us make sound judgements and grant us repentance we renounce satan and sin and ask You to meet our soul’s deepest needs in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Do your best and then sleep in peace. God is Awake.

Do your best and then sleep in peace. God is Awake.

 

Do not forget to watch and pray…

And being asked by the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God cometh, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: neither shall they say, Lo, here! or, There! for lo, the kingdom of God is within you...Luke 17:20-21. But of that day or that hour knows no one, not even the angels in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. It is as when a man, sojourning in another country, having left his house, and given authority to his servants, to each one his work, commanded also the porter to watch. Watch therefore: for ye know not when the lord of the house cometh, whether at even, or at midnight, or at cockcrowing, or in the morning; lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch...Mark 13:32-37. pray without ceasing; in everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus to you-ward...1 Thessalonians 5:17-18.

 

Jesus taught to watch and pray…what are we watching for His coming and the things we can do to facilitate His coming by making ourselves ready and prepared for the end to come. When you read John’s Revelation which church do you fall into? Jesus said the kingdom is given to us and we are to do our jobs or fulfill our plan and purpose. Like a business man that gives authority to those He left in charge…to fulfill their purpose. We cannot lose our purpose of preserving the faithful and making disciples or we will be found wanting like the virgins with no oil. Do you expect Jesus final coming to be in your life or are you like those who scoff saying He has already came?

 

Jesus died on the cross and was raised from the dead so we could be forgiven and choose right over wrong. You know there is really only one repentance…once you change and repent you will always be living out this change in life deeds. Jesus wants us to be righteous and not sinful but will teach and guide us to be righteous as we continue in becoming like Him. Do you want rest for your soul…then listen to what Jesus said… Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light...Matthew 11:28-30. Jesus will come into your life with the truth but our parts is to practice the truth He reveals to us. Do you agree to read the New Testament of Christ in order to learn Jesus teachings revealed to us through the Apostles and the Holy Spirit who spoke through chosen men…yes or no? If you do you find rest for a weary soul.

 

Prayer

Father please meet our soul’s deepest needs and heal our soul’s deepest wounds…please grant us repentance from sin and satan we renounce any other please send Jesus, in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

It is always right to do right and wrong to do wrong…

It is always right to do right and wrong to do wrong…


Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled...Matthew 5:6. To the pure all things are pure: but to them that are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but both their mind and their conscience are defiled. They profess that they know God; but by their works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate...Titus 1:15-16. And the Lord's servant must not strive, but be gentle towards all, apt (willing and able) to teach, forbearing, in meekness correcting them that oppose themselves; if peradventure God may give them repentance unto the knowledge of the truth, and they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him unto his (the devil’s) will...2 Timothy 2:24-26.


Do you want to be right with God and fellow man…can you shake everyone’s hand and give Jesus a hug if you met them? Or you need to make some repairs to relationships. It is written…If therefore thou art offering thy gift at the altar, and there remember that thy brother hath aught (reason to accuse) against thee, leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way, first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift...Matthew 5:23-24. We are told to leave worship and make things right with someone we have done wrong. Then come and offer a sacrifice.


Being a Christian is not hard but sometimes we must do the hard thing like humble our pride and say I am sorry I was wrong for this and you are the better man for forgiving me. Look for the right opportunity or a favorable situation to make amends and so I am sorry so it will be a success. The person you offended has to forgive you…Jesus will forgive anyone but people sometimes do not.


Prayer

Father please forgive us of all our sins and help us to know how to approach those we have done wrong to find reconciliation and make amends…please grant us repentance and knowledge so we can make things right with them and You…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
