More Revelations from Reading the Bible

Again, Truth that has caused me to think. Reinforced what I haven't been thinking about or doing. Hopefully the below will engage you to think about areas in your life as well:

  • FORGIVE
  • PRAISE THE LORD- the LORD is your Counselor; He counsels you
  • SET THE LORD- always before you.
  • BELIEVE without a doubt- In Jesus name' you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.
  • BE READY: to do for the name of the LORD Jesus.
  • "The LORD's Will be done."
  • Listen to the Holy Spirit.
  • Don't lust for beauty. Don't let lust overcome you.
  • Don't let yourself be seduced (corrupted/led astray).
  • EVERYTHING comes from God
  • FAITH, HOPE, AND LOVE will always remain. They are not going anywhere. Be faithful in prayer, be joyful while you hope, and the greatest of them all is LOVE.
  • LOVE- The most excellent way. Without love, everything is worthless and you can nothing. Love is- patient, kind, does not envy, does not boast, is not proud, is not rude, is not self-seeking, is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrong, does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth, always protects, always hopes, always trusts, always perseveres. LOVE NEVER FAILS!
  • Love is expressed through (sincere) ACTION (be devoted to people) and in TRUTH.
What do you have to work on? We all have something to develop when it comes to love...

  • When perfection, which is Jesus comes-imperfection disappears.
  • Hate what is evil and cling to what is good. Be over come by GOOD, not evil.
  • Never lack zeal (great energy, enthusiasm).
  • Keep you spiritual fervor (intense & passionate feeling).
  • SERVE THE LORD.
  • Be patient in affliction
  • Share with God's people, who are in need. Rejoice with those who rejoice, mourn with those who mourn.
  • Practice hospitality.
  • Bless others- do not plot revenge. God says, "It is mine to avenge; I will repay." You don't have to worry about it. Do good, even-especially to those you consider enemies.
  • Live in harmony with one another. Live at peace with everyone; even if you're rejected (which you will be) still be at peace. Don't react to foolishness.
  • Do not be proud or conceited.
  • Be careful to just do what is right!
  • Have self-control. Young MEN especially. Encourage others to be self-controlled.
There's more to living than just existing. Really think about the above, and take action within your life.
