The word for today is - Righteous !

Good morning,

The word for today is - Righteous !

 

 If we are sincere followers of Christ,then we know that our reward is in Christ Jesus. We will never achieve perfection in this life, but those people who strive to obey God often find a sense of joy and peace that no worldly rewards can give to them. Read Psalm 37:16-17,A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of many wicked.For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the Lord upholdeth the righteous. Honesty and integrity are very important values throughout life, God blesses the righteous! When you bless someone that is in need, then our Heavenly Father is well pleased. Are you a servant one of the elect? Do you hear the Spirit of God speaking to you today? Read Isaiah 42:1,Behold my servant, whom I uphold; my elect, in whom my soul delights; I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth justice to the Gentiles.The Bible tells us to share generously with those in need, and good things will come to us in return. Never forget about what God has done for us, look to the cross, always! As a believer we should not be self-righteous people. Many of the Pharisees forgot the true spirit and intent of the law and became self-indulgent, self-righteous. There is one group of people that Jesus talk about that was not of Himself, the hypocrites. Read Isaiah 29:13-15,Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid. Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the Lord, and their works are in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us? Wow, thats powerful! Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
