Good morning. We must ask God for wisdom in how to deal with certain people. We need to show compassion when we’re dealing with believers who are wavering in their faith. We need to remind them that God is the same yesterday, today, and forevermore. Then there are those people we can’t afford to sugarcoat the gospel, we can’t beat around the bush, we have to literally snatch them out of the fire. We have to let them know their souls are in jeopardy of living in eternal damnation.

Jude 1:22-23
And you must show mercy to those whose faith is wavering. Rescue others by snatching them from the flames of judgment. Show mercy to still others, but do so with great caution, hating the sins that contaminate their lives.

Good morning. We are not going to always agree with each other, but we should always love one another. How can we say we’re children of God and then say we hate other believers because we don’t agree with them? To hate other believers, is to walk in darkness. We need to do a heart check and make sure we are not fooling ourselves.

1 John 2:11
But anyone who hates a fellow believer is still living and walking in darkness. Such a person does not know the way to go, having been blinded by the darkness.

Good morning. God wants to pardon us. He wants to drop all the charges against us. All we have to do is take the deal. The deal is we confess our sins, and he’s just to forgive us and purify us from all unrighteousness. Now that’s a deal!

1 John 1:9
But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness

Good morning. Sometimes when we are doing good deeds we may feel as though it goes unnoticed and we become weary in well doing. Hold your head up high, our father in heaven sees all that you do, how hard you work, and he is not unjust to forget about you.

Hebrews 6:10
For God is not unjust. He will not forget how hard you have worked for him and how you have shown your love to him by caring for other believers, as you still do.

Good morning. It’s great to know that those of us that are saved are in the safety of the Lord. We look forward to the day that we can hear; well done thy good and faithful servant. We know that one day Jesus will return but we shouldn’t rush his return. We have family members, friends, co-workers, bosses, church members, etc., that are not saved. And the longer Jesus takes to return, gives them time to repent and be saved.

2 Peter 3:15
And remember, our Lord’s patience gives people time to be saved. This is what our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you with the wisdom God gave him—

Good morning. Do you hate following rules and laws? Sometimes laws can seem out of date and down right stupid nonetheless, they are still on the books. Did you know we are not pleasing to God when we don’t follow the law and that he detest our prayers when we refuse to obey the law. Jesus declares he didn’t come to do away with the law but to fulfill the law. If Jesus was obedient to the law, what do we think we have to do?

Proverbs 28:9
God detests the prayers of a person who ignores the law.

Good morning. If we wait for things to be perfect we would never get anything done. If we waited for the perfect mate, we would always be single. If we waited for the perfect church, we would never join. If we waited for the perfect ministry, we would never serve. If we waited for the perfect person to witness to us, we would never accept Christ. Let’s stop waiting on the perfect conditions and work with the conditions in which we find ourselves in. When we seek God and put him in our plans things will work out even in imperfect conditions.

Ecclesiastes 11:4
Farmers who wait for perfect weather never plant. If they watch every cloud, they never harvest.

Good morning. When you are doing a work for God and your family, neighbors, and friends don’t respect the call of God on your life; don’t let their rejection keep you from serving God. Jesus experienced this in his family and hometown; and he didn’t stop doing what God called him to do, he just didn’t perform many miracles for them. They are the ones that missed their blessing while Jesus was still in the will of God.

Mark 6:1-4
Jesus left that part of the country and returned with his disciples to Nazareth, his hometown. The next Sabbath he began teaching in the synagogue, and many who heard him were amazed. They asked, “Where did he get all this wisdom and the power to perform such miracles?” Then they scoffed, “He’s just a carpenter, the son of Mary and the brother of James, Joseph, Judas, and Simon. And his sisters live right here among us.” They were deeply offended and refused to believe in him. Then Jesus told them, “A prophet is honored everywhere except in his own hometown and among his relatives and his own family.”

Good morning. Let’s face it, sometimes we talk too much and sometimes we don’t watch what we say. Our speech can be so harsh at times and we can set fires with our words. The Bible declares a soft answer turns away wrath. Yet, somehow we allow our tongue to stir up all kinds of calamity and turmoil. We praise God one minute then in the next breath we’re cursing someone out; this isn’t Christ-like. We need to think before we speak. We need to ask ourselves; is what I’m about to say going to edify or destroy? If it’s going to destroy then it’s better to keep quiet.

James 3:6-9
And among all the parts of the body, the tongue is a flame of fire. It is a whole world of wickedness, corrupting your entire body. It can set your whole life on fire, for it is set on fire by hell itself. People can tame all kinds of animals, birds, reptiles, and fish, but no one can tame the tongue. It is restless and evil, full of deadly poison. Sometimes it praises our Lord and Father, and sometimes it curses those who have been made in the image of God.

Good morning. It’s hard for strangers to hurt us because they don’t know us. But, it’s hurtful when friends, family members, prayer partners, etc., who know us, pray with us, and we confide in them turn and hurt us. It’s in these time we cry out to God and say Lord why me. And sometimes his response is; my grace is sufficient. Truth be told, that’s not the answer we’re looking for but in time we begin to understand God knows all about what we’re going through and that it’s just a light affliction.

Psalms 55:12-14
If an enemy were insulting me,
I could endure it; if a foe were rising against me, I could hide. But it is you, a man like myself, my companion, my close friend,
with whom I once enjoyed sweet fellowship at the house of God, as we walked about
among the worshipers.
