Serving God by Serving Others...

 
I was going to write a blog tonight, but as I read what the Lord put on brother Abner's heart from earlier today, I had to copy and re-post part of it.

It is so important we understand what Abner is sharing here...
"A PERSON LIVES ACCORDING TO THEIR BELIEFS!"

If you believe that Christ has set you free...
THEN YOU WILL LIVE A FREE LIFE!
If you believe that Christ commissioned you...
THEN YOU WILL PURPOSE IN YOUR HEART TO COMPLETE YOUR MISSION!
Worshipping God means Serving God!
"SERVING GOD ENTAILS SERVING OTHERS!"
"Praise God for Wisdom and thank you Brother Abner for sharing and teaching"

What path are you on?

But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. ...
~ Matthew 7:14 ~
How many are on the path you travel? If your life looks like the vast majority of the population, (what you watch & listen to, how you react to things, how you love, how you live) chances are your on the wrong path as verse 13 tells us, "For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.
( vs 24-25) Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock

Are you using human wisdom or godly wisdom? Test it.

"...the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere..." ~ James 3:17 ~
God's Wisdom is...

1. Pure - Morally sound according to God's laws and free from guilt
2. Peace-loving - Free from quarrels and at harmony with all involved, also peace of mind.
3. Considerate - Not hasty, given sober reflection
4. Submissive - Humble, not looking at your own interests or good but the good of others.
5. Full of mercy & good fruit - Tenderness off heart that moves someone to overlook offences.
(Fruit = effect or consequence) Good Fruit would be the positive effect of your efforts. Good fruit of the Spirit is Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Gentleness, Faithfulness, & Self Control

6. Impartial - Not favoring one party more than another (including your own interests and opinions)
7. Sincere - Pure, with good godly motives.
Whatever it is your doing, test your decision, or your wisdom, and make sure it lines up with God's Word in every area. If it does not then it's human wisdom and good for nothing.

In this case make no decision but keep praying until God gives you wisdom from above concerning the matter, then you will always succeed.

I'm not sure how to respond to my situation...

Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.

~ Romans 12:12 ~
 Any more questions?

    He delivered us from so great a risk of death, and He will deliver us. We have set our hope on Him that He will deliver us again.
~ 1 Corinthians 1:10 ~
God has always been with us, God is with us now, God will always be with us.

Weather Report

 
 
Everything!!!! relates to scripture. My Brother George M'Lay and I were supposed to get together yesterday for lunch. Well, the weather prevented him from coming but this was his text to me.
 
"Due to Proverbs 16:9 I can't make it"
 
Now, I did not know proverbs 16:9 off the top pf my head so I had to go look it up as that was the extent of his text. Proverbs 16:9 says this...
 
"In a man's heart he plans his course, but the Lord directs his steps"
 
Amen George, Amen
