God is always good!

He is always merciful!

And His truth is forever.

You can always trust Him.

There is so much evil in the world.

But we still are to love others.

God loves them, so should you.

The Lord hears the prayers of those who walk uprightly.

It’s not the same for those who don’t.

Those that are greedy for their own gain brings trouble to their own home.

Proverbs 15:27 (KJV) – he that is greedy of gain trouble his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live.

It’s harder to be obedient and do what’s right.

Because the flesh is easy to give in to and doesn’t want you to do right.

Man makes so many mistakes.

Yet you trust man more than you trust God, who makes no mistakes.

It’s best to trust God.

It’s AMAZING how powerful a word  spoken or written can affect you.

But it’s not what goes in that defines you, its what comes out.

Matthew 15:11 (KJV) – not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man, but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.

The unbeliever and even some believers have the notion that believers will not have trials and struggles.

News flash!!

There will be nothing negative in the life to come.

We hold on to things that are not of God, like fear, doubt, lying, and unbelief.

Try letting go, and hold on to those things that are of God, like self-control, power and love.

II Timothy 1:7 (KJV) – for God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
