Get Rid Of Anger, Rage,
Malicious Behavior, Slander, And Dirty Language.
Don’t Lie To Each Other … Put On Your New Nature.
Scripture
Colossians 3
8 But now is the time to get rid of anger, rage, malicious behavior, slander, and dirty language.
9 Don’t lie to each other, for you have stripped off your old sinful nature and all its wicked deeds.
10 Put on your new nature, and be renewed as you learn to know your Creator and become like him.
17 And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father.
Observation
It
is not what you and I do on Sunday that matters most. Oh no, it is what we do
and say Monday thru Saturday that really counts!
Anybody,
including you and me can come on Sunday and even Wednesday evening, smile and
be nice for a few minutes, but it is how we live the rest of the week that
matters most to God.
Don’t
kid yourself, what you are doing will find you out.
One
of the things that Kathy and I have prayed and will continue to pray for our
grown children is that if they are doing something wrong is that they will get
caught! It is my prayer for myself too.
Whatever
we do or say lets do it as representatives of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks
through Him to God the Father.
Lets
live for Christ all 7 days out of the week!
But if you fail to keep your word, then you will have sinned against the Lord, and you may be sure that your sin will find you out.
Application
I
will live for Jesus Christ 24/7. How about you?
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, You know how frustrated I have been because some of the people that You
have brought into my life and into Kathy’s life who we love are struggling and
are being drawn back into the ways of the old life that was destroying them.
Help them to repent and help them to put on the new nature. Help them to live
for Christ 24/7. And if they refuse to repent and refuse to turn back to You
then I pray that they get caught. Save them from themselves. Help me and anyone
else that may be reading this blog to live as Your representatives, living
Monday thru Sunday in a way that brings You glory and honor.
