Three reminders from Jesus teaching…

 

Worry not child of God…

But if God doth so clothes the grass of the field, which to-day is, and to-morrow is cast into the oven, shall He not much more cloth you, O you of little faith? Be not therefore anxious, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? For after all these things do the Gentiles (unbelievers) seek; for your heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things. But seek you first His kingdom, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Be not therefore anxious for the morrow: for the morrow (future) will be anxious for itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof...Matthew 6:30-34.


If you change your now then you will change your future…your destiny is decided by your life chooses not a mystical force. Jesus talking to the Jewish people of His day told them God would provide. There is no need to worry because God will not fail you unless you are in rebellion to His commandments…then He lets you fall on your face until you return to Him…on your knees. Do you know the golden rule…you shall love your neighbor as yourself? It is called the golden rule in my opinion because when you practice no ill will towards anyone then you develop a pure heart that will see God and His intentions.

 

Judge not child of God…your judgment will be on your head too…

Judge not, that you be not judged. For with what judgment you judge, you shall be judged: and with what measure you mete (use), it shall be measured unto you. And why behold you the mote that is in your brother's eye (consider others sins), but consider not the beam (the bigger sin) that is in your own eye? (the things you could improve on) Or how wilt you say to your brother, Let me cast out the mote (sin) out of your eye; and lo (behold…look), the beam (sin) is in your own eye? You hypocrite (actor), cast out first the beam out of your own eye; and then will you see clearly to cast out the mote out of your brother's eye. Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast your pearls before the swine, lest haply they trample them under their feet, and turn and rend you...Matthew 7:1-6.


Be careful in weighing other people for their behavior…because if you send someone to hell for cussing then slip up and cuss guess where you deserve to go? Instead purify yourself and pray for those that are in error in your opinion to be better than they were. If you correct a fool then you will get a fool’s wrath…or correction…humble opinion.

 

Get right with God and your worry will be lessened…unless your judgmental…then be praying for mercy because you deserve the same.

Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: for every one that askes receives; and he that seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened. Or what man is there of you, who, if his son shall ask him for a loaf, will give him a stone; or if he shall ask for a fish, will give him a serpent? If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father who is in heaven give good things to them that ask Him? All things therefore whatsoever you would that men should do unto you, even so do you also unto them: for this is the law and the prophets. Enter you in by the narrow gate (small): for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many are they that enter in thereby. For narrow (small) is the gate, and straitened the way(difficult…it is difficult to practice the truth in a world full of liars), that leadeth unto life, and few are they that find it...Matthew 7:7-14.


Are you one which truly treats others as yourself…yes or no? Are forgiving and kind…yes or no? Are you one which judges others as not being good like you…yes or no? Do you condemn others because of their choices or have you considered their options to choose Jesus and how you can help them find the Help every soul needs…yes or no?

 

Prayer

Father, please meet our soul’s deepest needs and heal our sin so we may prosper and be in health as our soul prospers…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

All we leave this life with is the lessons we learned…or spurned until burned.

 

God will reveal the truth so you can be more like Him…learn your lessons well…The Creator disciplines us…to be more like Him…

Trust in Jehovah with all your heart, And lean not upon thine own understanding: In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He will direct your paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes; Fear Jehovah, and depart from evil: It will be health to your navel, And marrow to your bones. Honor Jehovah with your substance, And with the first-fruits of all your increase: So shall your barns be filled with plenty, And your vats shall overflow with new wine. My son, despise not the chastening (correction) of Jehovah; Neither be weary of His reproof: For whom Jehovah loves he reproves; Even as a father the son in whom he delights...Proverbs 3:5-12.

 

God disciplines us…and scourges (whips us)…to be more like Him.

and you have forgotten the exhortation which reasons with you as with sons, My son, regard not lightly the chastening of the Lord, Nor faint when you art reproved of Him; For whom the Lord loves he chastens (corrects), And scourges (whips) every son whom He receives. It is for chastening that you endure; God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom his father chastens not? But if you are without chastening (instruction and correction), whereof all have been made partakers, then are you bastards, and not sons. Furthermore, we had the fathers of our flesh to chasten us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live...Hebrews 12:5-9?

God is the Great I am of all that Is…He is the I am of all that is. If you are experiencing trouble then you better learn your lesson quickly. Look at everyday as a lesson from God to make or improve you to be more like Him in morals…character…and faith or done it before I have the power (authority) to do it again. He is always the example for us to be like and we will never be able to correct God but instead stand in need of constant instruction and discipline and correction. We need to have a what would Jesus do for all that we do and say…when is the last time you asked the Lord what would you do if you were me?

 

Jesus promises us…

Jesus therefore said to those Jews that had believed Him, If you abide in my word, then are you truly my disciples; and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free…for the truth's sake which abides in us, and it shall be with us forever...John 8:31-32...2 John 1:2.


Christians are not left ignorant of the truth but many will not practice the truth or want the Lord to do it for them not with them and many do practice the truth revealed. So when things are not going well…trust in the Lord and be better nor bitter. It is easy to complain and murmur but instead trust and ask what would Jesus do?

 

Prayer

Father please help us learn our lessons well so we are fit for Heaven our home…In Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

The truth will set you free…

 

Promise divine which never can fail…

 

Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are you my disciples indeed; And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free...John 8:31-32

The truth will set you free from the lie you do not need Jesus, that stealing is not sin, that bearing false witness is not sin, that coveting is not sin, that adultery is not sin, that not honoring your dad or mom is not sin, that murder is not sin, that blaspheming is not sin, or idolatry is not sin…that you do not need Jesus…to have other gods…that not loving your neighbor is not a sin.

 

Jesus is the Truth which sets us free from evil…

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me...John 14:6.

Jesus died on the cross and was raised from the dead so you and I could be free to practice all the good God intended us to fulfill our plan and purpose. You do not have to lie…steal…murder…covet…commit adultery…blaspheme…ignore your mom and dad’s needs…commit idolatry…have other sources (gods)…you can live your life and love your neighbor as yourself and be blessed for it. You do not have to out scheme your neighbor you can be free to love your neighbor because Jesus died and was raised from the dead.

 

Jesus died and was raised so Christians are free to love God and our neighbor…

Owe no man anything, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. Love worketh no ill to his neighbor: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law...Romans 13:8-10.

 

Have you fulfilled the Law by loving God and your neighbor as yourself…yes or no?

 

Prayer

Father please forgive us for not loving You or our neighbors as ourselves and help us to begin to love…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
