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.

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.

We are told to study and make ourselves approved…

Study (give diligence) to shew yourself approved unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing (applying) the word of truth...2 Timothy 2:15.


But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt (able) to teach, patient, In meekness (obedience) instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure (perhaps) will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will...2 Timothy 2:23-26.


All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works...2 Timothy 3:16-17.


How many people can tell someone the good news they obeyed to be saved? Most people will call a teacher or a preacher. Can you tell someone what you did to be saved so they to can be translated out of Satan’s kingdom and into the Christ? We must study in order to grow closer in relationship with God and this also includes doctrine…re-proving people in error of beliefs…correcting others behavior…so they can be informed in the right way.


How do you restore someone who was faithful to Christ…you get to the Word of God back in their minds and hearts for it alone produces faith. You cannot make a rebel change…but you can remind them of the promises and teachings of Jesus…for it is written…So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God...Romans 10:17.


Prayer

Father we pray you will meet our soul’s deepest needs and heal our sinful past wounds that we may prosper and be in health as our soul prospers…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
