Do you do what is right in your own eyes...

Is Jesus pleased when we do what is right in our own eyes?


Jesus said…Blessed are the meek (obedient): for they shall inherit the earth...Matthew 5:5. Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works...Titus 2:14.


What determines right in our own eyes verses being obedient to Jesus and His teaching?

We have to have a what did Jesus do or say for everything we do. A thus it is written in the New Testament of Christ…or a Jesus said it…so I did it for everything I do. Then and only then can we be sure we are obeying Jesus and not our own hearts and minds. We can lead ourselves astray if we do not keep the words of Jesus in our hearts and minds.


Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth...2 Timothy 2:15.


We can only divide or apply the word of truth if we know the word of truth then by having a thus it is written vocabulary and teaching performing or obeying the truth by rightly applying the truth to our lives and in works the lives of others.


Prayer

Father please help us know and do the teaching of Jesus and remember the promise for the truth's sake, which dwelleth in us, and shall be with us forever…so we can rightly apply Your truth in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Who is the source of the light which is in you…

Who is the source of the light which is in you…

for where thy 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 thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee 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...Matthew 6:21-24


What do you seek…the kingdom of heaven…or comfort, pleasure, easy street…etc. Are you fully converted and seeking only the kingdom of God? Are listening to Buddha…Mohamad…other religions…or is Jesus your only source?

 

If Jesus is not your source of truth, then you are full of darkness masquerading as light…

Ye 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 (mind and will): for he is a liar, and the father thereof. (the first liar)..John 8:44.

 

There is a false prophet coming to deceive you into thinking you abide in the truth but his fruits are not Holy…

even he, whose coming is according to the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceit of unrighteousness for them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God sends them a working of error, that they should believe a lie: that they all might be judged who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness...2 Thessalonians 2:9-12

 

We have to love the truth…seek the truth…and the truth will set us free from the darkness of the liars…and lies

 

Prayer

Father please reveal the truth to us so we can walk in the light of Your Son…doing what is right with man and You…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Do you want to be blessed with a pure heart…


Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God...Matthew 5:8…

How many people you know are pure in heart…We do not know the heart only God does and he makes His presence known to those who see the world like He does. Many adults could benefit from the advice of the play ground of children. How many adults are quick to say sorry like a child or Hi my name is Ben want to be friends and play?


Jesus said we can know the truth and the more truth we are faithful with the more truth will be given…listen…

For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that which he hath. Therefore speak I to them in parables; because seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. Mat 13:12-13.


The truth is like riding a bike…if you do not use the truth then you are shaky when you begin to ride again. When is the last time you thought it is in the bible but I do not know how it is said or where I read it. We have got to become sharper like a sword and have a book chapter and verse for the words we say are from the Bible. A thus it is written. When is the last time you have read the New Agreement between God and mankind called the New Testament of Jesus Christ?


Jesus said… Jesus therefore said to those Jews that had believed him, If ye abide in my word, then are ye truly my disciples; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free...John 8:31-32.


How can you be pure in heart without the truth from Jesus who is the source of all virtue and purity?


Will you re-read or perhaps read the New Testament for the first time…many in todays generations are practicing what is right in their own eyes justifying themselves by themselves. Many are turning to Jesus for the truth and learning how to be pure in heart. Do you want to be pure in heart? Then take Jesus teaching and let that be your eyes….take each verse and store them in your heart and live by them…you will become more pure in heart by doing so and see more of God and His will for you in this life.


Prayer

Father please give us more virtue and purity so we can see You and learn how to behave in Your sight. Please meet our soul’s deepest needs so we may prosper and be in health as our soul prospers in Your Kingdom…IN Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
