The word for today is - Apart !

Good morning,

The word for today is - Apart !

The kingdom of God is set apart from the world. Understand this, the world will continue in sin , but those who truly belong to the kingdom of God are called to put their total trust in God and to obey all of Jesus' teachings, including His teachings against violence. Paul says, the believers are to exercise love by our response to both “good” and “evil". Read Romans 12:3-5,For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith. For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another. Jesus never said to fight one another, He said to love one another and pray, read Matthew 26:51-53,And, behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest's, and smote off his ear.Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?  Wow ! The way of the world is to fight, but the way of God is to love them and pray for them, read Luke 6:27-28,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. We have a mission, to help others grow in Christ.  Jesus loved his enemies, He is the greatest example of walking in True Love. So, the word says, present your case, says the Lord, “Set forth your arguments", why are you not walking in Love? Read Romans 12:1-2,I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. The question is, what is God's will? God's will is, His word for your life. Your have to be  transformed by the renewing of your mind (the word of God). God sets Himself apart from everyone and everything, read Isaiah 41:19-24, I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the shittah tree, and the myrtle, and the oil tree; I will set in the desert the fir tree, and the pine, and the box tree together:That they may see, and know, and consider, and understand together, that the hand of the Lord hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it. Produce your cause, saith the Lord; bring forth your strong reasons, saith the King of Jacob. Let them bring them forth, and shew us what shall happen: let them shew the former things, what they be, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare us things for to come. Shew the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that ye are gods: yea, do good, or do evil, that we may be dismayed, and behold it together. Behold, ye are of nothing, and your work of nought: an abomination is he that chooseth you. You are set apart for a good work.Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
