If you’re waiting to hear the voice of the Lord, listen.

Because He speaks and His sheep hears Him.

John 10:27 (KJV) – my sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.

Our minds are on everything but the right thing.

Everything you’re concerned about will be taken care of if you just pursue the kingdom of God . . . FIRST!

Matthew 6:33 (KJV) – but seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

We forgive others with conditions.

It is God’s will for us to forgive, and you will be forgiven.

No conditions.

Matthew 6:14 (KJV) – for if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.

If you don’t judge others, you won’t be judged.

If you don’t criticize others, you won’t be criticized.

If you forgive, you will be forgiven.

Luke 6:37 (KJV) – judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven.

We are not to worry or be afraid because we have peace.

Not the world’s peace, but Jesus’ peace.

John 4:27 (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.

God comforts you in your tribulations so that you are to comfort others in their trials with the same comfort God comforted you.

II Corinthians 1:3-4 (KJV) – blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort: who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.

To love God is to do what He says.

Love Him back.

John 15:10 (KJV) – if you keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love, even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love.

No matter what, God still loves you!

Romans 8:38-39 (KJV) – for I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor death, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

We rely on our own strength and what we can do.

Rely on the strength of the Lord and what He can do.

Ephesians 6:10 (KJV) – finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

We all have been given grace.

But grace did not come by man, but by Jesus.

John 1:17 (KJV) – For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
