When we make promises, we’re saying we might do it.

When God make promises, He’s saying He will do it.

Keep your promise.

II Corinthians 1:20 (KJV) – for all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.

You are to encourage and pray for others and our country to live a life of truth, of peace and of godliness.

I Timothy 2:1-2 (KJV) – I exort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

Those you hang around are your influencers.

The have an affect on your character and your behavior.

They will either build you up or tear you down.

Proverbs 13:20 (KJV) – he that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.

None of us wants to be called a liar.

But if you say you don’t sin, you’re calling God a liar.

I John 1:10 (KJV) – if we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

Many believe God only wants to punish us.

God is love, who wants you to repent and for you to have eternal life.

II Peter 3:9 (KJV) – the Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

There is no guarantee of a life without suffering.

But know this, we will not go it alone.

John 16:33 (KJV) – these things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

When you give a little, you get a little back.

When you give much, you get much back.

II Corinthians 9:6 (KJV) – but this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.

Believers, you are to bless the homes you enter in.

Pray for their peace.

Luke 10:5 (KJV) – and into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house.

God gives us His perfect peace no matter what we’re going through.

He is your source of peace, not man.

John 14:27 (KJV) – peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

We always have to keep our guard up by reading the word of God.

Because satan is always looking for someone to destroy.

I Peter 5:8 (KJV) – be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.
