Whoever walks in integrity walks securely,
but whoever takes crooked paths will be found out. Proverbs 10 Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. 21 But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.
John 3:21 Walk with AUTHORITY , yet with tenderness . Lead with POWER, yet with HUMILITY. LOVE others with the HEART of Our LORD JESUS CHRIST, and that LOVE will transform everything around you.
"He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us." 2 Corinthians 1:4 When I was a young boy and did wrong and trust me I knew when I did wrong and my mother called me, right before she spanked me, she would always say, now son, if you didn't know any better it'd be different, but you did. Then she'd say, "This is going to hurt me a lot more than it's going to hurt you.
I'm thinking today I should have said, "That's a good point mom, how about we forget the whole thing, let me go back to my room, this way no one gets hurt." But that wouldn't have worked either. This is how Jesus is, our Heavenly Father, when we sin and He has to punish us, it hurts Him more than it hurts us. But you might say, how can this be? Just look at the Cross! "For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world (through) Him might be saved." James 3:17 I would like you to know why I sent this.
One day when I was having a challenging day. One of my friends walked by me heading to his office he said "Sean, me and my family prayed for you today" as he smiled and walked by. That meant the world to me. Sometimes the greatest prayers are the ones you don't know about "Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.
For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them." Mathew 18:19-20 SHARPEN YOUR SWORD TODAY 'QUIZ'
The woman at Jacob's well, said to Jesus, “Sir, give me this water so that I won’t get thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water.” He told her, “Go, call your husband and come back.” “I have no husband,” she replied. Jesus said to her, “You are right when you say you have no husband. The fact is, you have had five husbands, and the man you now have is not your husband. What you have just said is quite true.” Your question? Who was the woman Jesus was actually speaking to? a) Jezebel b) The woman from Egypt c) The Samaritan woman d) Debra, from Jerusalem e) None of the above [Reference] John 4 "But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.” Jeremiah 17:7-8 When a man's ways please the Lord, and he has dedicated his entire life to Him, that man or woman will not have to chase his blessings and the favor from the Lord but, the Lord's blessings and favor will chase after him. Ephesians 6:13
“…take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm.” "Jesus went throughout Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and sickness among the people. 24 News about him spread all over Syria, and people brought to him all who were ill with various diseases, those suffering severe pain, the demon-possessed, those having seizures, and the paralyzed; and he healed them. 25 Large crowds from Galilee, the Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea and the region across the Jordan followed him."
Matthew 4:23-25 "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for (every) good work."
2 Timothy 3:16 "For the eyes of the Lord range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are (fully) committed to him."
Every Day, every single day is another opportunity to commit your heart fully to the Lord. In being... *Kind *Bold *Faithful *Humble *Gentle *Fair *Forgiving *More Patient *Non Judgemental *Easy to Entreat *Saying NO to gossip *Believing the Best in & for others *Slow to JUMP to a conclusion BEFORE you know the whole story. Just to name a few. I love you all "Listen to my instruction and be wise; do not disregard it. Blessed are those who listen to me, watching daily at my doors, waiting at my doorway.
For those who find me find life and receive favor from the Lord. But those who fail to find me harm themselves; all who hate me, love death." Proverbs 8 It's a Beautiful Day, in the name of the Lord let's gooooo
"Whoever walks in integrity walks (securely), but whoever takes crooked paths will be found out. The mouth of the righteous is a (fountain) of life,.." Proverbs 10 Matthew 18:21-22 says,
"Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, 'Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?' Jesus answered, 'I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.'" "There is no wisdom, no insight, no plan that can succeed against the Lord.
The horse is made ready for the day of battle, but (victory) rests with the Lord." Proverbs 21:30-31 Good morning my familia, I just transferred some money from one account to another. The app told me the transfer reflected on (both) ends, immediately! I like that.
I thought to myself, that's how prayer works. If we honor and love the Lord our God with all our life and with all our heart and with our soul and with our mind and strength, WHEN WE PRAY, it reflects on both ends....... IMMEDIATELY! "...and if we know that he heareth us whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him." 1 John 5:15 Chuck Smith, said he was witnessing to a non-believer, the non-believer told Chuck Smith, I don't need your God, I don't need a crutch in my life, and then the man walked away.
Chuck, later said, he believes everyone has some type of crutch, he said, the question is not whether you have a crutch or not, the question is, can your crutch save you! "When the righteous cry for (help), the Lord hears and (delivers) them out of (all) their troubles." Psalm 34:17 "Therefore, (confess) your sins to one another and pray for one another, that (you) may be healed.
The (prayer) of a righteous person has (great) power as it is (working)." "For the Lord (gives) wisdom;
from his mouth come knowledge and understanding. He holds success in (store) for the upright, he is a (shield) to those whose walk is blameless, for he (guards) the course of the just and (protects) the way of his (faithful) ones." Proverbs 2 Before you lose your cool...
"He who is slow to anger is better and (more) honorable than the mighty [soldier], And he who rules and controls his own spirit, than he who captures a city." Proverbs 16:32 The benefits of discernment From the Holy Spirit
“The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit.” 1 Corinthians 2:14 NIV "Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously.
Each of you should give what you have (decided) in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under (compulsion), for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to (bless) you (abundantly), so that in (all) things at all (times), having (all) that you (need), you will (abound) in every good work." [2 Corinthians 9:6] "Blessed are those who listen to me,
watching daily at my doors, waiting at my doorway. For those who find me find life and receive favor from the Lord. But those who fail to find me harm themselves; all who hate me love death.” Proverbs 8:34-36 |
