Good morning. Sin has consequences. It affects our relationship with God and our health. Don’t think we can sin and God turns his head and act like he doesn’t see us. We can’t get away with anything. We should pray that God doesn’t deal with us in his anger because the punishment will be more severe. When God’s wrath comes upon us, we dare not say; Satan is busy or the enemy is after me. We need to tell the truth. Because of sin, I’m in this state. Because of sin, my health is failing. Because of sin, I’m suffering God’s wrath. This has nothing to do with Satan and everything to do with the choice we made to disobey God.

Psalms 38:1-3
O LORD, don’t rebuke me in your anger or discipline me in your rage! Your arrows have struck deep, and your blows are crushing me. Because of your anger, my whole body is sick; my health is broken because of my sins.

Good morning. When we’ve made God so angry that he withdraws his protection, you know we’re in for a world of hurt. When God decides he will no longer be merciful, we are exposed to everything the enemy can throw at us. Let us not get to this point. Let’s be mindful of our behavior. Let’s keep a spirit of repentance. Let’s read the scripture and learn from the mistakes others made. We could not handle life if God chose to turn his back on us because of our sinful ways.

Lamentations 2:2-3
Without mercy the Lord has destroyed every home in Israel. In his anger he has broken down the fortress walls of beautiful Jerusalem. He has brought them to the ground, dishonoring the kingdom and its rulers. All the strength of Israel vanishes beneath his fierce anger. The Lord has withdrawn his protection as the enemy attacks. He consumes the whole land of Israel like a raging fire.

Good morning. When we don’t allow God to be king and Lord in our lives we are surely headed for destruction. We think everything we do is right and we dare someone to tell us otherwise. If our ways are not lining up with the word of God, then we must ask ourselves; is God my Lord and king or is the world? We never want to get to the point where the world is our lord again because, we know that this world has nothing to offer us.

Judges 21:25
In those days Israel had no king; all the people did whatever seemed right in their own eyes.

Good morning. Once you’ve heard of Jesus and seen Jesus work in your life, don’t allow anyone to come and persuade you otherwise and don’t think you’re doing something on your own. We cannot take credit for anything that God is doing or has done in our lives. People that try to persuade us to thinking the Lord is not who he say he is has never had a relationship or experience with him. It’s hard to come into contact with the Lord and not be changed forever.

Galatians 3:1-3
Oh, foolish Galatians! Who has cast an evil spell on you? For the meaning of Jesus Christ’s death was made as clear to you as if you had seen a picture of his death on the cross. Let me ask you this one question: Did you receive the Holy Spirit by obeying the law of Moses? Of course not! You received the Spirit because you believed the message you heard about Christ. How foolish can you be? After starting your new lives in the Spirit, why are you now trying to become perfect by your own human effort?

Good morning. We can’t beat God’s giving no matter how hard we try. It’s good when we have compassion on the poor, realizing it could be us or it should be us; but by the grace of God. Before we look down on the poor, we need to remember that God is watching our every move and he sees how kind or how harsh we treat them. I suggest we treat them with love and kindness so that we don’t forfeit our benefits of restored health, preserved life and prosperity. If we feel like we don’t need these benefits, then by all means treat the poor harshly. But, if these benefits are priceless to us, then we should take heed and follow God’s ways.

Psalms 41:1-3
Oh, the joys of those who are kind to the poor! The LORD rescues them when they are in trouble. The LORD protects them and keeps them alive. He gives them prosperity in the land and rescues them from their enemies. The LORD nurses them when they are sick and restores them to health.

Good morning. God watches over his children and he gives signs to look for in others. He teaches us how to spot wicked people, wolves in sheep’s clothing. If we take heed, these people won’t be able to dupe us however, if we keep thinking everybody is our friend, or that these people won’t treat us like they treat others; we will find ourselves hurt, crying and calling on God asking him, “why did they do this to me”. Even Jesus knew that everyone wasn’t for him, so, what makes us think that everyone is for us? The Bible declares to be as wise as a serpent and harmless as a dove. We have to use wisdom and discernment when people are always around us in our face. We have to ask God, what are their motives and intentions. Taking a moment to talk to the Lord about the people around us will save us a whole lot of problems in the end.

Proverbs 6:12-15
What are worthless and wicked people like? They are constant liars, signaling their deceit with a wink of the eye, a nudge of the foot, or the wiggle of fingers. Their perverted hearts plot evil, and they constantly stir up trouble. But they will be destroyed suddenly, broken in an instant beyond all hope of healing.

Good morning. In this season we must stay focused. We don’t have time to wonder about what someone else is doing. We must place our feet on a straight path and stay the course no matter what it looks like. We have to learn how to blot out distractions that are sure to come. Satan will try everything he can to knock us off course. That’s why, we we have to watch as well as pray and keep our eyes and mind stayed on Jesus.

Proverbs 4:25-27
Look straight ahead, and fix your eyes on what lies before you. Mark out a straight path for your feet; stay on the safe path. Don’t get sidetracked; keep your feet from following evil.

Good morning. The Bible declares if we lack wisdom we can ask God for it and he will give it to us. Wisdom will teach us how to respond to people, how to have good judgment and how to be quiet when we really want to speak. Wisdom will carry us farther than money and intellect. We should not hesitate to ask God for wisdom on a daily basis; for his wisdom is what’s best. Being wise in our own selves makes us fools and destruction is sure to follow.

Proverbs 4:7
Getting wisdom is the wisest thing you can do! And whatever else you do, develop good judgment.

Good morning. There’s no need in putting off for tomorrow what we can do today. When people ask us for help, they need help right then and there. Many of us know what it feels like to be in want, need help, muster up enough courage to ask for help, only to be told; come back tomorrow, when the person we’re asking has the means or the resources to help us today. By procrastinating to help people today, we can cause them to lose hope, to lose faith and to feel like the world and the church is against them. Let us do better as Christians. The same love and compassion and help that God shows us, let us show that to someone else.

Proverbs 3:28
If you can help your neighbor now, don’t say, “Come back tomorrow, and then I’ll help you.”

Good morning. Common sense is a precious commodity now days. You’d think many people would use it, however, when we see some of the decisions that are being made we understand that common sense isn’t very common. As children of God, we can’t just have Bible smarts; we have to use the common sense and the spirit of discernment that God has given us. It will keep us from making the wrong decisions. It will keep us from harming others. It will keep us from making a disgrace of ourselves. We won’t have to toss and turn at night and be haunted by the decisions we’ve made, if we choose not to do what’s popular and what the majority of everyone else is doing; and do what we know is right and conduct our business with the leading of the Holy Spirit.

Proverbs 3:21-23
My child, don’t lose sight of common sense and discernment. Hang on to them,
for they will refresh your soul.
They are like jewels on a necklace. They keep you safe on your way, and your feet will not stumble.
