The word for today is - Judging !

Good morning,

The word for today is - Judging !

 

Is it good to judge someone? Read Luke 6:37-38, Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven: Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again. God requires forgiveness, else He will not forgive you. If we are unwilling or unable to forgive anyone, God will not forgive you. Read Mark 7:5-6, Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands? He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. That means your judging! Read Luke 6:26-29, Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets. But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you. And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloak forbid not to take thy coat also.So, the word of God tells us to love your enemies, and pray for the people that use you. Pray for them, give it to Jesus, He will take care of everything. Peter asked Jesus a question about forgiveness, in Matthew chapter 18. He asked how many times should we forgive somebody. Jesus said, not 7 times but 77 times, the point is that forgiveness is to be a lifestyle. That is where the challenge comes in, it might be easy to forgive someone a couple of times, but how do you keep forgiving someone who then turns around and does the same thing to you time and time again? Now read Matthew 5:19, Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. The word is saying, if you are teaching something, you should be living it also. Amen ! We all need to pray and ask the Heavenly Father to forgive us all. Read Matthew 6:12, And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. First ask the Father to forgive you, and then forgive others. Just say, Father forgive us for the wrongs that we have done to others, as we forgive the wrongs others have done to us. Lets look at Mark 11:25,And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. Thats how its done !!! Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
