God’s Word for Today - 06 Jan 2024
James 3:14 KJV — But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.
Reflection on God’s Word for Today - 06 Jan 2024
In the Kingdom of God there's no room whatsoever for any other behaviour, but love, truth, justice, mercy and grace. These are the defining traits of everyone who professes Christ as Saviour and Lord. Any behaviour contrary to what Jesus modelled for His followers is a betrayal of your faith in Christ, so you must steer clear of such behaviour. Envy, bitterness, strife, lust and lying do not edify you nor glorify God and you must not succumb to them. There are schisms in many assemblies of those who call Christ Lord because of these damnable traits. And where there's such discord the Holy Spirit can hardly be present and happy. I implore you to choose not to grieve God the Holy Spirit by your behaviour. Learn to show sincere love to all the brethren, all of the time.
Pray: Father in heaven, I want to be like Jesus, please mould me to conform to Him in character. #Mok
