Are we holding fast to Jesus teaching? Are we being swayed by those who want power to tell us where to shop, who we should think is good or bad, and what we are to believe? Do we really know Jesus teaching or are we making it up as we go? The Book of Matthew is strong in what Jesus taught. Will we walk in it?
Jesus walked us through: Blessed are the humble, Blessed are they that mourn their sin, Blessed are the gentle, Blessed are those who seek His righteousness and His ways, Blessed are the merciful, Blessed are the pure in heart, Blessed are the peacemakers, Blessed are those who hold fast to His teaching even in adversity, Love your neighbor and your enemy, Bless and do not curse, Esteem others more than yourselves, It is blessed to give to those in need, to care for those less fortunate; for all we receive is given by God, to live a quiet life and let Christ’s light shine more through our deeds than our words, do not judge others for we do not know their hearts and there is only One true Judge, Jesus.
Will be foolish or wise?
Proverbs 11:30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and he who wins souls is wise.
1 Peter 2:17 Honor all people. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.
What kind of fruit are we bearing?
Lord, Thank You for Your word. Please bring us through this time of testing by Your word and help us to be a light for Your love. In Jesus name amen
