WHEN YOU ARE THE TEACHER

-

Hebrews 5:12

For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to need milk and not solid food.

We meet situations we have no control over, time and time again.

*Daniel found himself in a strange land with so much expected from him.

*Joseph found himself in a palace with so much to account for.

*David found himself in the war zone with a giant soldier threatening his people

*Lot found himself in a community full of unrepentant sinners whose atrocities knew no boundary

*Solomon found himself as king, when he ought to have been a rejected child

"The situations are not always our making, however, we can re-write the scripts"

Instead of watching the scene as a spectator we could actually write the script by being "the teacher".

Titus 2:7
In all things see that you are an example of good works; holy in your teaching, serious in behaviour.

This instruction was actually given to godly women.

No one is left out!

Psalm 37:6
And he will make your righteousness be seen like the light, and your cause like the shining of the sun.

It is not old school or old fashioned to do the right things. It is a norm.

We cannot only speak it, we must live it. We should not always expect it, we should be it.

Matthew 5:16
Even so let your light be shining before men, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.

Proverbs 6:23
For the rule is a light, and the teaching a shining light; and the guiding words of training are the way of life.

I see believers who are the perfect examples to the world around them. In little and big things.

Numbers 6:25
May the light of the Lord's face be shining on you in grace.

We would be perfect examples, the Lord would be happy with us.

1Peter 2:9
But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;

We would not get tired, and if we have erred, Grace to begin again is here!

So we pray, we worship, we study the word. We must not fail in this!

Colossians 3:16&17
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
 And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.

Don't be afraid to be the teacher, it is a privilege, it is expected of you!

Today will be another good day.

He calls us blessed.

Love
@the watcher.

MAINTAIN A GODLY MARRIAGE

-
Judges 13:2-3,6,10 In those days a man named Manoah from the tribe of Dan lived in the town of Zorah. His wife was unable to become pregnant, and they had no children. The angel of the Lord appeared to Manoah’s wife and said, “Even though you have been unable to have children, you will soon become pregnant and give birth to a son. The woman ran and told her husband, “A man of God appeared to me! He looked like one of God’s angels, terrifying to see. I didn’t ask where he was from, and he didn’t tell me his name. So she quickly ran and told her husband, “The man who appeared to me the other day is here again!” We live in times when the institution of marriage is being destroyed from in and out of the church. Divorce rate is high and many are in a marriage but are not happy therein. What is the problem? God has been taken out of the equation. How? Jesus said: Matthew 19:8 Jesus replied, “Moses permitted divorce only as a concession to your hard hearts, but it was not what God had origina

Remember: God is in control.

As we go through the 11th month of this year of accomplishment, let us be reminded. When it seems to hurt so much, or it all looks quiet and alone, when it appears not to work out. Please don't give up, God is still in control Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. My dear it is not about how you feel, and not about what it seems, it is about what He Has promised and He who promised is sure to keep His Word. Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:12 " Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you." God is in control and His plans for you are good. He has already done it. Romans 4:21 " and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform." Have a

NEEDLESS BATTLES

-
Judges 12:1-4 Then the people of Ephraim mobilized an army and crossed over the Jordan River to Zaphon. They sent this message to Jephthah: “Why didn’t you call for us to help you fight against the Ammonites? We are going to burn down your house with you in it!” Jephthah replied, “I summoned you at the beginning of the dispute, but you refused to come! You failed to help us in our struggle against Ammon. So when I realized you weren’t coming, I risked my life and went to battle without you, and the Lord gave me victory over the Ammonites. So why have you now come to fight me?” The people of Ephraim responded, “You men of Gilead are nothing more than fugitives from Ephraim and Manasseh.” So Jephthah gathered all the men of Gilead and attacked the men of Ephraim and defeated them. When the Lord does not lead you, you become prone to minding and walking with unnecessary things, like fighting unnecessary battles and stirring evil sentiments. I have always said that devices like racism, tri
