This was a response from God, for being outwardly religious, but inwardly wicked. All our hearts are inherently wicked, but Jesus sent his spirit, and his word, to help us change our hearts. If our hearts are changed, then our actions will overflow with pure motives. This would be a great life verse, don’t you think? God Bless, Alan

I want you to stop and think about this, with me for a minute. Jesus’s way, is not the world’s way. We are called to Love our enemies, not destroy and overcome, like the worldly view. We overcome with Love and Compassion, just as Jesus did. Think about an enemy, or someone you are at war (there is strife of some sort) with right now. Show compassion and love to them, but don’t do it to get something. Do it because that is how Jesus did it. The rest is not up to us. God Bless you today.

Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.
LUKE 6:36 NASB

Lord, may our hearts humbly bow before you, in persistent prayer. May we be alert, to the needs of others, so we might lift them up. Reveal yourself to us, through answered prayer, even though it may not be, what we wanted the outcome to be. May we always remember, that you care about us and love hearing our petitions.

Devote yourselves to prayer, keeping alert in it with an attitude of thanksgiving;
COLOSSIANS 4:2 NASB
https://bible.com/bible/100/col.4.2.NASB

Warning: This was a warning of Judgement to those who did not seek the Lord. The nation had fallen into pagan worship and idolatry. It had lead, them into many forms of unrighteousness, and God was saying to brace yourselves! Does any of this sound familiar? Let us confess our sins and turn from them. Let us pray for our nation, who has gone astray. Let us be a light in a dark place and be used by God, as a lighthouse, to save those who will listen and receive God’s truth!

“But let justice roll down like waters And righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.
AMOS 5:24 NASB

If you want to know the difference, between evil and truth, go to the Bible, which is God’s Words. If you look to this world’s definition, there will be no standard, since man is always redefining what is right and wrong, to suit his own needs. Just look around, and you will see what I mean.

does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;
1 CORINTHIANS 13:6 NASB
https://bible.com/bible/100/1co.13.6.NASB

Dark days may come Lord, but as David states, you are there to comfort us. Fill us with your Holy Spirit to comfort, and give us courage, to meet head on in your strength, whatever comes our way. And all of God’s people said?

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
Psalms 23:4 NASB

Want to know the secret, of Living in this crazy world we live in?


But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us.
Romans 8:37 NASB

https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.8.37.NASB

Choose your friends wisely, is not just some old saying.  It is written from one of the wisest of all books in God’s Word.  Because God does not want see us harmed, but wants to us succeed in this world.


He who walks with wise men will be wise, But the companion of fools will suffer harm.
Proverbs 13:20 NASB

https://bible.com/bible/100/pro.13.20.NASB

How do we overcome evil?

Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
Romans 12:21 NASB

https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.12.21.NASB

Example of how:  Read verse 20.

Remember: Doing good in and of itself is just an exercise that is futile.  We must be filled with God’s spirit to have that kind of Love.  If we do, then we can point them to Jesus, who is the one who Loves us.
