🗝Everything good comes from Him. 🗝We need to be thankful and confess our appreciation for the good things He has done in our lives. 🗝Everyone has a unique gift. 🗝God never changes. He is the same today as He was thousands of years ago. He will be the same tomorrow and the rest of eternity. 🗝We were given 2 ears and 1 mouth. I'm pretty sure that's an indication that we're supposed to listen more than we speak.
🗝Be a good listener! Don't cut people off while they're talking. If you're trying to resolve a misunderstanding, let the other person express how they're feeling. ... 🗝Realize that although you may be right, there's a chance you could be wrong. 🗝Anger is one letter short of the word danger. 🗝Stop saying you can't control your anger or any other emotion. As Christians we have the fruit of the Spirit. One of those fruits is self-control. 🗝Pray before you say! 🗝Problems will never get resolved when anger is involved. 🗝Pray about your anger. 🗝Before God can do a great work through you, He has to do a great work IN YOU.
🗝Get rid of anything that's crippling your spiritual walk. ... 🗝Accept God's teachings and apply them to your everyday life. They can save your life. 🗝God will meet you where you are and take you where you need to be. 🗝Who you hang around can affect your spiritual walk. 🗝God wants you to completely turn from sin, not flirt with it. 🗝We have to do what God's Word says....
WE HAVE TO DO WHAT GOD'S WORD SAYS! One more time... WE HAVE TO DO WHAT GOD'S WORD SAYS! 🗝It doesn't matter how great your church attendance is. It doesn't matter what all you're involved in at church. It doesn't matter if you're best friends with your pastor. That stuff is good, yes, but that's not what God is concerned about. He's concerned about how you're living your life, especially behind closed doors. 🗝Live the life you preach about. 🗝You shouldn't be blending in with the world. As children of God, we should be standing out...not in an obnoxious way. 🗝Don't expect God to bless you when you're being rebellious and disobedient. 🗝Your purpose of going to church is to learn and grow, not because it's the thing to do on Sundays. 🗝Study God's Word daily. If you have time for social media, you have time for God. 🗝God should be your #1 priority. He should not have to be worked into your schedule. Your schedule should be worked around Him. 🗝Don't be a phony. 🗝Don't get so full of yourself just because you know a lot of the Bible, or because you've read it from Genesis to Revelation six times, or because you serve at the church. If you can't control your mouth, you're only fooling yourself.
🗝Your tongue needs to be saved! 🗝Get involved and help those who are in need. Stop praying for God to do everything while you sit around and hope things will get better. 🗝BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE IN THE WORLD! 🗝There is a lot of power in the words we speak. Choose them carefully. 🗝Don't be a modern day Pharisee! |
