BE GOOD

-

Matthew 5:48

But you are to be perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect.


Most people get acquainted with you because of one good nature or the other. Even places of employment take you in because of one good quality or the other they believe you have.


Matthew 5:16

"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.


Your good friends came close to you because of those good characteristics you carry. (although some might just be, because of what they can get from you or someone to support their bad nature).


Titus 3:8

This is a faithful saying, and these things I want you to affirm constantly, that those who have believed in God should be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men.


In all, as time passes by don't let those characteristic good qualities of yours fade away due to pressures, challenges, bad relationships or the reaction of others among other factors.


1Peter 2:15

For this is the will of God, that by doing good you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men--


Colossians 1:10

that you may have a walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God;


You are to get better by the day, not discouraged or angered but better and better.


2Thessalonians 3:13

But as for you, brethren, do not grow weary in doing good.


You never know when the Lord will appear or when He will call you.

Live everyday as a treasured moment.


So it is time to re-evaluate yourself, are you good, are you doing good or are you living in an illusion that you are doing good while carrying around a repulsive character.


Don't stay comfortable with it, stop defending it or trying to hide it, come to Jesus to be cleansed that you may show forth the true nature of God by His Spirit. (Galatians 5:22-23)


And listen, start that goodness from your home, your spouse, your children, your parents, your siblings, your spouse family, then those around you, your brethren in fellowship. Be good that God's presence will always be around you and His angels will always be on assignment for you.


So help us Good Lord.


PRAYER

Loving Father keep me in Your good nature, let all my thoughts, words and deeds please You always. Lord let Your Spirit control my nature that I will continually walk in Your goodness. Glory to Your name Lord forevermore.


He calls us blessed.


Love

@the watcher.

DO YOU STILL SEE?

-
Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same

MY YEAR OF FULFILMENT

-
Psalms 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. We just finished the book of 1Samuel, in this book we see the cry of Israel for a king and how God raised Saul to rule them. We also saw how Saul disobeyed God and lost kingship for himself and his generation. He did not stop there, he went on to seek for the death of David, whom he saw as the next heir of the throne. In chapter 31, the last chapter, we see how Saul and all his sons and men were killed, it was tragic, however it was as a sign of relief for David. We could go on counting all the struggles and difficulties we faced in the past year. No, we should not, we should begin to look at all the positives, remembering all the good things God has done for us. If He promised it, He will do it and that is what we hold onto as we go through this year. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. This is the year of fulfilment, and
