GOOD DAY, AND THANK YOU FOR VISITING MY BLOG...CAME ACROSS THIS SCRIPTURE TODAY FROM PROVERBS; MAY I SHARE IT WITH YOU WITH MY THOTS FOR YOUR EDIFICATION;=
Pro 3:26 For Jehovah shall be your hope, and shall keep your foot from being taken.
Pro 3:27 Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in the power of your hand to do it.
Pro 3:28 Do not say to your neighbor, Go and come back again, and tomorrow I will give; when you have it beside you:
VERSE26;=JEHOVAH GOD MUST BE THE HOPE OF YOUR LIVING..IF YOU MAKE HIM SO, WE CAN REST SECURE IN HIM...THIS IS HIS GLORIOUS PROMISE...JESUS TAUGHT THIS TRUTH TOO IN MATTHEW 6, EXHORTING HIS DISCIPLES TO SEEK FIRST GOD'S KINGDOM AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, MAKING GOD AND HIS AGENDA HERE ON EARTH YOURS AS WELL...WITH HIM ON OUR SIDE, THERE IS NOTHING WE CANNOT SURMOUNT OR WITHSTAND...JEHOVAH GOD SHALL KEEP YOUR FOOT FROM BEING TAKEN/TRAPPED.
VERSE27;=OFTEN TIMES IN OUR DAILY LIFE, WE COME ACROSS OPPORTUNTIES TO DO GOOD, TO HELP A FELLOW BELIEVER IN CHRIST, OR JUST ANOTHER HUMAN BEING IN NEED OR IN TROUBLE..JUST LIKE THE STORY OF THE GOOD SAMARITIAN THAT JESUS TOLD WHEN HE WAS ASKED 'WHO IS MY NEIGBHOUR?"...THIS VERSE TEACHES US NOT TO WITHHOLD DOING GOOD WHEN YOU ARE ABLE TO HELP...DOES THIS MEAN ANYONE, EVERYTIME?...THE VERSE SAYS "TO WHOM IT IS DUE"...DOES THIS MEAN WE NEED TO FIRST DO AN ASSESSMENT ABOUT THE SPECIFICS OF THE SITUATION AND THE PERSON, TO SEE THE MERIT? IT SEEM SO. THEN WE DON'T OPEN OURSELVES TO BEING DECEIVED BY CON-PERSONS...WE NEED TO ASK GOD TO GRANT US DISCERNMENT AND WISDOM TO MAKE THIS CALL CORRECTLY, SO THAT WE DON'T ERR AND MISS DOING GOOD...HOW OFTEN WE MISS SEEING THE "JESUS" IN A PARTICULAR SITUATION?...WHAT JESUS REVEALED IN MATTHEW 25 ABOUT DOING GOOD TO THE HUNGRY, THE THIRSTY, THE NAKED, THE STRANGERS IN NEED, THOSE IN PRISON FOR THE FAITH, THOSE SUFFERING...ETC...THESE ARE NOT THE GOOD THAT CATCHES THAT LIMELIGHT..IT IS THE GOOD THAT GOD SEES AS HE SEARCHES HUMAN HEARTS...WHAT WILL HE SEE WHEN HE SEARCH YOUR HEART TODAY?
VERSE28;=HOW OFTEN WE TURN OUR FACES AND OUR HEARTS AWAY FROM A PERSON BECAUSE WE ARE NOT READY TODAY TO GIVE, TO DO GOOD, WHEN WE ARE WELL ABLE TO...WE PROCRASTINATE...WE TELL THE NEEDY PERSON COME BACK ANOTHER DAY...AS IF WE WILL BE READY THEN...IF INDEED WE ARE, FINE...BUT MORE OFTEN THAN NOT, EITHER THE PERSON DON'T COME BACK...OR WE FIND ANOTHER EXCUSE WHEN TOMMORROW COMES WHY WE OUGHT NOT TO DO THE GOOD...SO, THE TEACHING HERE IS NOT TO DELAY, NOT TO SAY TOMMORROW WHEN TODAY GOD BRINGS BEFORE YOU AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO GOOD...YOU REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT TOMMORROW WILL BRING, DO YOU?
MAY JEHOVAH GOD BLESS YOU AND MAKE HIS FACE SHINE UPON GOD AND GIVE YOU PEACE. BE GOOD. DO GOOD. TODAY, FOR TOMMORROW MAY NEVER COME ! AND IF IT DOES COME, IT MAY FIND YOU IN WORSE STATE THAN TODAY..BE EDIFY.
