Good morning. Before we speak on a matter we need to hear the whole story. There’s always three sides to any story. Each party has a side then there’s the truth. We embarrass ourselves when we hear one side of a story and start trying to provide answers and solutions. Besides, we shouldn’t be trying to give anyone answers without consulting the Lord. It’s ok to keep our mouths shut, that shows how wise we really are.

Proverbs 18:13 Spouting off before listening to the facts is both shameful and foolish.

Good morning. When we’re out here doing any and everything we want to do, we’re not seeking the Lord. It’s only when we hit a brick wall and calamity comes that we want to act like Mary and Martha and say; Lord where were you. We can’t get mad at God for our own foolish behavior. We thought we could sin, get away with it, and not suffer no consequences. We think God is winking at us and turning a blinded eye. We think because we say; the Lord knows my heart, that we have a blank check to sin. Well the Bible declares; the soul that sin shall die. So we can’t keep fooling ourselves and getting mad with God all we want. The only person we’re hurting is us. If we die and go to hell, it’s our fault, not God’s.

Proverbs 19:3
People ruin their lives by their own foolishness and then are angry at the LORD.

Good morning. When we take an inventory of our hearts we can be for real with God. Everything in our hearts are not pure. While we have the chance we should ask God to purge our hearts. We should freely give him the jealousy, bitterness, malice, hatred, lust, envy, and everything else we’re festering in our hearts that’s not of him. The Bible declares; out of the heart flows the issues of life. It also declares; only the pure in heart shall see the Lord.

Psalms 139:23-24
Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. Point out anything in me that offends you, and lead me along the path of everlasting life.

Good morning. Sometimes we can speak out of turn and ruin things. Then there are times when we use wisdom and say just the right thing at the right time. We feel good when we can contribute to a situation with the right response. We get embarrassed when we’ve said the wrong thing and caused harm. It’s imperative that we learn to think before we speak; this will save us a lot of heartache and headaches.

Proverbs 15:23
Everyone enjoys a fitting reply; it is wonderful to say the right thing at the right time!

Good morning. As Christians we will mess up sometimes. We are not exempt from sin. We may find ourselves on the wide-road leading to destruction and death. It’s in those times, that we need the Christians that’s still living holy to cover us and help lead us back on the straight and narrow path. Judging the fallen Christians won’t do any good. Besides, we need to make sure we don’t fall into the same temptation or worse.

Galatians 6:1
Dear brothers and sisters, if another believer is overcome by some sin, you who are godly should gently and humbly help that person back onto the right path. And be careful not to fall into the same temptation yourself.

Good morning. Nobody needs to know how we help other people and the people we help, don’t need to be constantly reminded that we helped them. Therefore, we shouldn’t be posting all over social media what we’ve done. Whatever we do for others should be done out of a pure heart; not a complaining mouth. If we’re going to complain about helping others, we might as well keep our help to ourselves. God see’s everything we do and he knows the motives of our heart. He will reward us accordingly.

Matthew 6:1-2
“Watch out! Don’t do your good deeds publicly, to be admired by others, for you will lose the reward from your Father in heaven. When you give to someone in need, don’t do as the hypocrites do—blowing trumpets in the synagogues and streets to call attention to their acts of charity! I tell you the truth, they have received all the reward they will ever get.

Good morning. We must be careful about letting our emotions get the best of us. Anger is an emotion that if not dealt with quickly, can ruin our walk with Christ. Nothing is more important than our relationship with the Lord. Besides, we should have the attitude that we are not going to let nothing and no one make us miss out on heaven.

Matthew 5:22
But I say, if you are even angry with someone, you are subject to judgment! If you call someone an idiot, you are in danger of being brought before the court. And if you curse someone, you are in danger of the fires of hell.

Good mornin. We are not to keep company with unholy people. We cannot help who we work with, but we can help who we choose to spend our private time with. Being unequally yoked is not just for romantic relationships, it’s for regular friendships as well. The Bible declares; iron sharpens iron. Not sinners sharpening the children of God. This doesn’t mean that we are to be rude and nasty to unholy people. We still have an obligation to witness to them, but we don’t have the option of hanging and partying with them.

Matthew 7:6
“Don’t waste what is holy on people who are unholy. Don’t throw your pearls to pigs! They will trample the pearls, then turn and attack you.

Good morning. Sin should no longer rule us. At this point on our Christian journey we should be focused on pleasing God and not our flesh. We must place our flesh under subjection to the Holy Spirit daily. That means; we must watch what we say, what we allow in our hearing, and what we allow our eyes to see. For the Bible declares; the eye is a lamp unto our souls, when the eye is healthy it provides light to the whole body and when the eye is unhealthy it provides darkness to the whole body. In this season, we can’t afford for darkness to cloud the inside of us, for there is much darkness in the outside of us in the world.

Romans 6:11
So you also should consider yourselves to be dead to the power of sin and alive to God through Christ Jesus.

Good morning. Have we tied God’s hands? Are we naming the name of Christ, while harboring unforgiveness in our hearts? We should not go to hell for other people. If we refuse to forgive someone, we can’t make it into heaven, because God will not be able to forgive our sins. It’s imperative to our souls, that we get over what others have done to us and forgive them quickly. Nothing and no one is worth the risk of lifting our eyes in hell.

Matthew 6:14-15
“If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you. But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins.
