I sometimes forget that we don't wrestle against others in life. The enemy of our soul has a plan to stop us and get us off track of God's plan for our lives. Ephesians 6:12 speaks of spiritual wickedness and points out about darkness of power. People can judge us and they can be wrong. I am so glad that God knows our hearts and leads us through all seasons of life. Each of us have a responsibility to read the Bible and know the importance of living it. It's a process of change and we grow inside as we grow older in life. Purpose growing into a better person daily and plant scriptures of hope inside of you.
John 16:13-16 New International Version (NIV)
But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come.
Matthew 7:1-6 New International Version (NIV)
Judging Others
“Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 2 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
3 “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 4 How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
I NEED TO REMEMBER THIS ~
I remember years ago how someone said an untruth about me and others believed it. It took my life down a road of change and my family also. God has a way of bringing the truth to light and I have learned the importance of not judging others. I have learned that God gives a brand new start to our lives as well.
WE NEED TO REMEMBER THIS ~
Ephesians 6:12 New International Version (NIV)
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
I have found that Christmas time brings back so many memories for us. Those would be good but also bad ones. Be careful the things you dwell on today in your head. After all, this season is about the birth of Jesus. His one life continues to inspire others and we take the time to celebrate him. In the Bible it's not only about life, but about guarding your heart, your mind, showing us the devil has a plan too and so much more. There is freedom within the pages of the Bible and within our own hearts. Go ahead, ask Jesus to come into your heart this day and begin to live in freedom of yesterdays. If you already have Jesus in your heart, then go ahead and allow God to continue to use your life.
My prayers continue for you, your family and friends.
