Start the New Year by renouncing evil and begin walking with Jesus Christ…


Will you renounce satan and any other except God and Jesus Christ kingdom and begin this new year walking with Jesus Christ the Good Shepherd of our souls…yes or no? If you are not a Christian then you are walking in darkness but you can become full of light be choosing Jesus Christ as the truth, as the way you live, and the life you will be living for eternity. His yoke is easy and His burden is light. He died on a cross and was raised from the dead so He could make it easy for you to tell the truth and practice what is right by God and fellow man. Jesus said you will know the truth and the truth will set you free (John 8:32).

 

It is written…

Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust does consume, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. The lamp of the body is the eye: if therefore your eye be single, your whole body shall be full of light. But if your eye be evil, your whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you be darkness, how great is the darkness! No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon (this world)...Matthew 6:19-24. You are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father it is your will to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and stands not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own (own will and imagination): for he is a liar, and the father thereof (the first liar)...John 8:44. If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, meet for the master's use, prepared unto every good work. But flee youthful lusts, and follow after righteousness, faith, love, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. But foolish and ignorant questionings refuse, knowing that they gender strife (arguments). And the Lord's servant must not strive, but be gentle towards all, able to teach, forbearing, in meekness correcting them that oppose themselves; if peradventure (perhaps) 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 will...2 Timothy 2:21-26.

 

You do not want to be liar like satan do you…yes or no? But for the fearful, and unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and fornicators, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, their part shall be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone; which is the second death...Revelation 21:8. You cannot participate in a lie and please our Creator but need to learn the truth and practice the truth. Jesus will give you the truth but you have to be faithful with it and then He will give you some more truth to be faithful with…it is called practicing the truth. Do you practice the truth…yes or no? You can start practicing the truth by doing what Jesus said…listen…as it is written He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieves shall be condemned...Mark 16:16. Do you believe Jesus died and rose from the grave…yes or no? Have you been baptized…yes or no?

 

Prayer

Creator God of all gods we renounce anyone but You and Your only Son Jesus Christ so we may practice the truth from You…please cleanse us of all the unrighteousness of our pasts and help us start a new year with you a new…please meet our soul’s deepest needs and create whatever we need to be faithful and please heal us from the works of the evil one…and confirm this truth to us…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

What does God call evil…


When is the last time you have read the Ten Commandments and asked yourself to change for the better?

Here are the Ten Commandments

 

Thou shalt have no other gods before Me…Exodus 20:3 (No other religions)

Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image…Exodus 20:4 (no lucky charms or idols)

Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain…Exodus 20:7 (Only use Jesus or God’s name in prayer or teaching)

Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy Exodus 20:8 (keep yourself Holy so you can worship God)

Honor thy father and thy mother…Exodus 20:12 (do not disrespect your mom or your dad)

Thou shalt not kill…Exodus 20:13 (do not murder)

Thou shalt not commit adultery…Exodus 20:14 (be faithful to your marriage)

Thou shalt not steal…Exodus 20:15 (Do not steal)

Thou shalt not bear false witness…Exodus 20:16 (Do not lie)

Thou shalt not covet …Exodus 20:17 (Do not want what your neighbors have but want what God has given you)

 

If you practice loving your neighbor as your own self…then you will be practicing these…especially if you love God above all as your Supreme Neighbor. Never say God and not be praying or teaching.(you do want someone to say your name and then be like I did not mean to say it) Never look to a good luck charm or an idol for a blessing. Never disrespect your mom or your dad. (You gain respect by giving respect) Never murder someone. (you do not want to die so do not kill) Never cheat on your spouse. (you do not want your spouse to cheat so do not cheat) Never steal. You do not want it stolen from you so do not steal) Never lie. (you do not want to be lied to so do not lie) Never want someone else’s stuff (you do not want someone eyeing your stuff so do not want other peoples stuff but be content with what you have)

 

So are you truly loving God and your neighbor…yes or no?

 

Prayer

Father help us keep Your commandments and love our neighbors as ourself and especially You so we can worship you in spirit and truth any day…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Wisdom has two parts…1 Having a lot to say….2 Not saying it.

Wisdom has two parts…1 Having a lot to say….2 Not saying it.

 

If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraids not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavers is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways...James 1:5-8 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction...Proverbs 1:7… For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad...2 Corinthians 5:10.

 

Do you use discretion when you speak…yes or no? Our words should be encouraging a life well lived. We should turn away from evil deeds and words and use ourselves as instruments of doing what is right. Is it hard to keep your mouth shut or to speak right…we can always walk away from a situation and not participate. We can all try to better the situation and not make it worse if we participate at all then let us as it is written… Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers...Ephesians 4:29.

 

I myself need to work on my words…I sometimes slip and cuss. I spent a long time cussing before I became a Christian and some times I still slip and do. I hope I can be encouraging and say the things needed to better a person or situation. I know we will be judged even by the idle words we say and many times wish I did not cuss when I have done so. So I am going to try to have cleaner speech…because it just does not sound right…I am a Christian but sometimes a cuss a little.

 

Prayer

Father please forgive me of my cussing and help me to stop using idle words…please meet my soul’s deepest needs and heal my wounds…and heal those offended by any cuss words or my behavior in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
