Good morning. Many of us get weary in well doing when we feel like people don’t appreciate our acts of kindness. We begin to murmur and complain. We begin posting subliminal messages on social media to get likes and for people to agree with us. So, the question is; are we doing good so that people can see us and give us praise? Or, are we doing good because we know we’re doing it as unto the Lord? Before we get all wound up and angry, we have to check our motives, because God already knows the intent of our hearts.

2 Thessalonians 3:13
As for the rest of you, dear brothers and sisters, never get tired of doing good.

Good morning. We can’t take credit for anything God has done in our lives. We didn’t save ourselves, deliver ourselves, redeem ourselves, heal ourselves, or restore ourselves. It was the Lord’s doing. If we do good, it’s the Lord’s doing. We are God’s creation and He will have His perfect way.

Ephesians 2:8-10
God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.

Good morning. When we eat natural food it fills us up temporarily. After while, we become hungry again and have to go back and get more. However, when we feast on Jesus, the bread of life, all of our hunger pains and cravings go away. Nothing is temporal with the Lord. We have an everlasting filling when we’re served from His table. Therefore, we need to come where the table is spread and the feast of the Lord is going on.

John 6:35
Jesus replied, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry again. Whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.

Good morning. We must be careful how we treat people. The ramifications for treating people bad when they are good to us is too costly. We bring damnation, chaos and confusion to our own houses when we repay good with evil. We must check our ways and motives. If we know our ways and motives are not pure, we need to go to God, repent and ask Him to; create in us a clean heart and renew a right spirit in us.

Proverbs 17:13
If you repay good with evil,
evil will never leave your house.

Good morning. We show the love of God when we forgive others for doing us wrong. We block our forgiveness from God and our blessings when we choose not to forgive, putting our souls at risk of eternal damnation. Also, we risk ruining friendships and relationships when choose not to forgive. We cannot afford to play God with our souls. We’ve done too much wrong and we commit unknown sin at times, and we need God’s forgiveness. Just think, if we die holding a grudge and refusing to forgive; where do you really think we’ll end up? For the Bible declares; only the pure in heart shall see the Lord.

Proverbs 17:9
Love prospers when a fault is forgiven, but dwelling on it separates close friends.

Good morning. Many times we don’t like to be corrected because we’re grown. Newsflash! Grown people make mistakes, walk in error and they don’t know everything. We must be willing to learn, be willing to be corrected or suffer the consequences. God is teaching us things daily, but if we’re stuck in a carnal mindset, we’re not trying to learn spiritual things. We just want the title Christian and the worldly ways. We aught to be grateful that God loves us enough to correct us and chastise us.

Proverbs 12:1
To learn, you must love discipline;
it is stupid to hate correction.

Good morning. When we look over our lives and see all the sin we’ve committed, then we see how good God has been to us, it aught to cause us to repent. When we think about how we crucify Jesus daily with our sins and He still says; behold I stand at the door and knock, that aught to cause us to repent. When we know without a shadow of a doubt we should’ve been dead, sleeping in our graves because of sin, but God showed us grace and mercy, that aught to cause us to repent. In all of God’s goodness and mercy we need not take it for granted. We need to repent and walk on the straight and narrow path. For the Bible declares, my spirit won’t contend with man always.

Romans 2:4
Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

Good morning. When we look back over our lives sometimes it makes us breakout in a praise or it makes us begin to worship. We begin to bless the Lord and tell Him how good He is. We begin to think about, if it had not been for the Lord who was on my side. We begin to tell someone else how good God’s been and when we really get happy we tell them ; O! Magnify the Lord with me and let us exalt His name together. No matter what you’re going through, begin to think on the goodness of the Lord and speak to your soul, and tell your soul to bless the Lord. Tell your soul, to rejoice in the Lord.

Psalms 103:1 Bless the LORD, O my soul:
and all that is within me, bless his holy name.

Good morning. We have a choice to make when we see someone in sin. We can either put them on blast and let the world know or we can cover them in prayer and let God decide how and when He will expose them. If we choose to put them on blast, there will be consequences and repercussions that can affect not only us, but our blood line. If we choose to cover them in prayer, the blessings of the Lord will follow. We have to be careful how we choose. Remember when we meet God face to face, He’s not going to ask us about what the world did; He’s going to ask us to give an account for every deed done in this body.

Genesis 9:20-27
After the flood, Noah began to cultivate the ground, and he planted a vineyard. One day he drank some wine he had made, and he became drunk and lay naked inside his tent. Ham, the father of Canaan, saw that his father was naked and went outside and told his brothers. Then Shem and Japheth took a robe, held it over their shoulders, and backed into the tent to cover their father. As they did this, they looked the other way so they would not see him naked. When Noah woke up from his stupor, he learned what Ham, his youngest son, had done. Then he cursed Canaan, the son of Ham: “May Canaan be cursed! May he be the lowest of servants to his relatives.” Then Noah said, “May the LORD, the God of Shem, be blessed, and may Canaan be his servant! May God expand the territory of Japheth! May Japheth share the prosperity of Shem, and may Canaan be his servant.”

Good morning. As children of God, we can’t get away with nothing. We are without excuse. No matter what lies or justifications we tell people, God sees and hears it all. He will deal with us according to our actions. It’s best we tell the truth and be upfront and honest with people because we can’t afford the price we’ll have to pay for being dishonest.

Proverbs 24:12
Don’t excuse yourself by saying, “Look, we didn’t know.” For God understands all hearts, and he sees you. He who guards your soul knows you knew. He will repay all people as their actions deserve.
