“Wisdom For Godly Living”
Proverbs 11:3- The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them, Amen.
This verse in the Scriptures teaches us that moral and sound character acts as a safe and inner compass, whereby being deceitful and dishonest with leads to total ruin. Living with integrity will lead you to trust others, it’s being fair and just. Being a person with integrity causes your private living to match your public… you never have to second guess yourself. By having spiritual integrity is being consistent in our ways before God. But it’s living a life of being dishonest, that complicates our lives, and it sets a trap whereby we’re prone to lie, and lies will eventually destroy our life and those around us, our families, and, our children. Heart that’s deceitful are not used wisely, because it takes away time in prayer, and from meditating on the flow of massive blessings from God. “Isaiah 26:3 says…Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Thee, because he trusteth in Thee”. Although we can never avoid strife in the world around us, but with God in our lives, we can know perfect peace in times of turmoil, remaining with integrity. It’s because we have learned to trust in God, and when we’re devoted to Him, it’s then our whole attitude is steady and stable. Having Gods unchanging love and power, we are not shaken by the surrounding chaos in this world. We, The Greater Faith Baptist Church, have adopted Gods Words in Scripture…”Zechariah 4:6- Not By Might, Not By Power, But By My Spirit, Saith The Lord Of Host.” It’s how we’re called to live our lives …lead by The Spirit is of God, because we’re not strong enough to live our lives on our own strength. O it is Jesus…it’s in Him we’re made strong and able to endure life’s challenges. It’s because all we’ll ever need is found in Him, in His Holy Name where there’s power, love, healing, joy and a perfect peace that surpasses our understanding. Therefore we must live our lives in integrity because we’re representatives of The Lord… meaning that we re-present Him again and again that others may come to know The Lord of our Salvation, it’s the only way to live our lives that we may live again. We must pray always, in the Name of Jesus Christ our Savior now and forevermore Amen and Amen.
A gracious new day is dawning over the horizon, we’re to rejoice and be grateful in it. I pray you enjoyed your extended weekend. Now it’s past time for us to walk in integrity and with faith to be successful in our lives and to be an inspiration and encouragement to others. Being mindful of others, we will help them in ways we’re able too, especially in our prayers for them. Let us pray for stability in families, care and protection for the precious innocent children, and healing and comfort for those who are suffering. We who are blessed in amazing ways, are to be a blessing for the less fortunate among us. I pray we will put away foul language that profits nothing, and speak Words that’s sure to produce a great and better environment. In all things we pray in Jesus Holy Name, Amen. Family have a blessed day in the Lord, I shall remain in His service without compromise, love always, Minister Smith ❤️
