This world will fall away, and we will pass away with it, so don’t love the things of this world nor your life here. But seek ye the Kingdom of God and an eternal life with Christ Jesus!
FRUIT OF THE DAY: Longsuffering – (In Hebrew it is translated meaning “long of nose”) The quality of being patient under provocation or affliction. The ability to endure trials and tribulations without angering or falling away from the faith. To have self restraint, slow to wrath, long of anger (you are not quick to anger)
VERSES: “Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath: for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like a garment, and they that dwell therein shall die in like manner: but my salvation shall be for ever, and my righteousness shall not be abolished. Hearken unto me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law; fear ye not the reproach of men, neither be ye afraid of their revilings. For the moth shall eat them up like a garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool: but my righteousness shall be for ever, and my salvation from generation to generation.”
-Isaiah 51:6-8
“For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.”
-1 John 2:16
FOOD FOR THOUGHT: My soul aches daily for those that profess to know God but refuse to walk as His son walked. Instead, hold onto all the things of this world, seeking to only please themselves and those around them and not God. The attachment to this world is unreal because everything will vanish, as will we but salvation is forever, The Word of God is forever! This world is like a virus that slowly kills us inside, separates us from what is really true, this is not where we belong, this is not where we will thrive, this is not where we are meant to be, this is but a fraction of what’s to come! So people please put down your pride, put away all lust, and what you think you know, repent, and seek the LORD! He is worthy and most Holy, He is Life eternal! This life is temporal!
PRAYER: Blessed are You LORD! Keep our feet from evil O, God and keep the door of our lips! May we continue in faith and remain hopeful for the day of the Lord! We shall wither as the flowers of the field but Your word shall remain for ever. Jesus You have overcome the world, we ask for Your help so that we may overcome it also!
In Your name, we pray AMEN
