“It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord. Romans 12:18 New International Version
If someone stabs you in the back at work to get a promotion or at school to get a better grade on an assignment or any other way, do not seek revenge.
I know our first instinct in our hurt is to want to hurt them back.
As a Christian we are to take it to Jehovah move them to repentance and for the strength and grace for you to forgive them.
If they refuse to repent, leave revenge in Gods hands. He knows best how to administer true justice. It may take years or decades but they do not get away with it.
Trust me; they ain’t getting away with nothing. It truly does come back on them like searing burning coals. I have seen it with many who thought they got away with it but paid the price in their elder years.
I have seen those whose hobby it is to cause trouble, and then laugh about it. When confronted about it they pretend innocence. They are plagued by nightmares and are very lonely because they have no friends. They are also constantly plagued by physical ailments.
Prayer: Please Jehovah ElHeenu (God of justice) bless me with the spiritual, physical and mental fortitude not to return evil for evil but to have faith in Your true justice which cannot be altered to suit the politically correct. I beseech You in the name of the supreme judge Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.
“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” Psalm 34:18 New International Version Personally
I do not believe in saying brokenhearted.
To me a more accurate saying is pierced my heart because just as an lightening bolt pierces a tree and causes a branch to explode and be ripped from it so too does my heart feel when someone causes me heartache.
Have you ever felt like a literal knife had been pierced into your heart by someone’s careless or intentional cruel words or actions?
I have physically felt like that on occasion. It is deep, deep pain and agony.
When we cry out to our Beloved in Heaven in the agony He feels our pain and comes close to us and reassure us that He is always there and that He always care.
Jesus always loves me, Jesus always cares. Joseph- Anthony: Green
Just read your Bible and see what Jesus went through. So of course He understands because He has been there and through much worse.
Have you ever experienced agony so bad it literally sucks the life out of you? You feel like a crushed pop can. It can be with worry, stress, agony, loss of a loved one or any number of things like addictions.
When we surrender it all to Him He will provide the resources to heal the agony and to resolve whatever the conflict may be.
Nothing is ever hopeless to those who trust and obey Christ. Joseph- Anthony: Green
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Ropheka (God our healer) for healing the numerous piercing of my heart and renewing my crushed spirit. I joyously give thanks in the name of He who was close to His brokenhearted and crushed disciples after His resurrection Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sunshine of Jesussweet love bless you today and every day.
If I regard iniquity in my heart, The Lord will not hear. Psalm 66:18 New King James Version
Iniquity: the quality of being unfair or evil Merriam-Webster Dictionary
If you are a cheater and scammer beware, you are going to get your dew in spades. You will not get away with it. Jehovah will make sure that what you scammed others out of and or stole from others will be taken from you three times as much.
When that happens (and it will) and you cry baby to Jehovah what makes you think He will waste His time listening to you?
Through time He will send warnings to you to cease and desist. If you stupidly and arrogantly refuse to obey Him then you will suffer.
Just as you did not listen to Him, He too will ignore you.
Now if you repent you may still have to pay the consequences of your wicked deeds. So if you cheated stockholders out of money and get caught you will still have to repay the money and probably do time in prison. But, because you have repented your relationship with Jehovah will be repaired.
Believe me, live may be difficult walking with Jesus but is impossible without Him. Joseph- Anthony: Green
Prayer: Please Jehovah Kalel (Voice of god) always bless me to be attentive and obedient to Your life giving word so as to live in harmony with with others and with You .I cherish our relationship more than any earthly desire. I humbly request this in the name of He who is Your most obedient son Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. Psalm 34:18 New International Version
When you accept Christ as your savior do not be niave enough to believe that all your problems will disappear and that life is going to be a bowl of cherries. Indeed expect the exact opposite.
When you accept Christ as your savior you become in a life long battle.
It will mean that those close to you will not only reject you but also become your worse persecutors. You can expect to be ridiculed at work and in many instances persecuted because now you have higher morals.
Many times this will be a huge crushing weight upon your heart.
That is when the best course of action is to take it to Jesus. Do not forget He has experienced everything we have and so much more when He walked the earth.
The blessing of this is that this experience will draw you in closer to Christ and you will experience divine joy, peace and assurance that your life is in the hands of the divine King who loves you more than anyone could or would.
“Persecution for righteousness’ sake is what every child of God must expect.” Charles Simeon
Prayer: Thank you Jesus Pryyand (Jesus my best friend) for promising and fulfilling Your promise to always be with me in the good times and the bad. You are not only my savior and king but my best friend which is the most cherished relationship I can ever be blessed with. I give thanks for this revered blessing in Your magnificent name. Amen.
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.
Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. Colossians 3: 2 New International Version
There are only two ways of thinking: down here and up there.
Down here refers to absorbing ourselves in earthly delights like a new house, new car and the latest designer clothes. These will always leave you feeling empty and make a slave out of you.
Have you ever seen anyone loving wash their car and talk with it like it was a living thing when alls it is is a bunch of metal that is devoid of all emotions? How about someone with a home where they worship it like a god that is not possible to love them back. Have you ever seen someone squealing with delight because they just got the limited edition of a certain line of clothes, which of course comes with an inflated price to match, and then throw them away a year later because they are out of style?
If we do not cling to riches, selfishness or greed than I believe we are getting closer to God. Daniel Ortega
Up there refers to enjoying and beautiful relationship with Jehovah and how to serve Him.
On the flip side of the coin I have seen many that would give you the last food they have. I have met many of these souls and they are the most special and beautiful of all I have ever met. You cannot help but experience joy, love and kinship with them. My moist cherished and memorable experiences have been with these souls. They have peace with Jehovah, peace with their neighbours and peace with themsleves.To me they are a far better role model for our children than some tycoon that has earned their wealth by cheating others or most of the movie, rock and sports stars of today.
I have seen many who have a lot of toys and it is their only love but are still miserable, I have seen many that are in abject poverty but would gladly give you their last food and their hearts are full of peace and joy. Joseph- Anthony: Green
Prayer; Thank you Jehovah Shalom (God of peace) for blessing me with the most valuable commodity there is, peace. I know this is the result of being an obedient loving child of Yours. I give thanks in the name of the prince of peace Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.
Let their table become a snare before them, And their well-being a trap. Psalm 69:22New King James Version How is your table?
To me, the table represents material wealth.
The tables of the rich in the ancients were feasts to show off their wealth.
A snare is used to catch a bird and kill it.
Has your house or car become your slave? Do you give more time to them than you do to Jehovah? Are they slowly sucking the joy out of you because you have to constantly be upgrading your house and paying exorbitant money for monthly parking and gas? Now there is nothing wrong with having an nice house or car but when you become obsessed with it becomes your cruel master and you its helpless slave. The same goes with fashion clothes and any other form of material objects that you become obsessed with and usually in dept up to your eyeballs.
Your well being to me indicates your physical body. Are you spending more time at the gym trying to look like you did in your teens than you do in Bible study and prayer? Do you torture yourself doing exercises trying to look beautiful? What a stupid waste of time. There is nothing wrong with keeping your body healthy but when it becomes an obsession that is when it becomes a cruel master and you the helpless slave.
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Jireh (God our provider) for blessing me with daily blessings both spiritual and physical. I especially thank you for the blessing of our incredible loving relationship which I cherish most of all. I extol You in the name of Your most valuable gift Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day
“The wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.” James 3:17 New International Version.
Wisdom is having knowledge and putting that knowledge into action. Joseph- Anthony: Green
Devine wisdom is the best wisdom and that can only be obtained from being obedient to the will of Jehovah. The more obedient we are to Him the more wisdom He blesses us with.
Peace loving to me means we are not out looking for fights and try to be peace makers. It does not mean we are to be wimps and allow others to abuse us.
Considerate means to put others welfare above your own as long as it is not submitting to anything that is manipulative. So if you have a family event and a friend asks you to go shopping with them because they do not want to be alone that is manipulative.
Submissive is to stop trying to fight or resist something as long as it is not against Christs commands. So if someone asks you to try drugs of course you are to resist them but if someone is trying to get you to give up a bad habit then you are to submit to them.
Mercy means to be kind or forgiving treatment of someone who could be treated harshly or help given to people who are in a very bad or desperate situation. This means you are not to get someone back when they are at a weak moment and indeed help them, It also means you are not to turn your back when you see someone needs help.
Good fruit means that we are to encourage others to become children of Jehovah.
Impartial means that everyone is treated equally. There is no racial discrimination. There are no black churches or Asian churches or white churches or neighborhoods. There is no giving preferential treatment to a woman over a man or vice versa. There is no rich or poor, no looking down on someones physical handicap.
Being sincere means having or showing true feelings that are expressed in an honest way and being genuine or real : not false, fake, or pretended. That means you are not to be two faced, friendly to their face but putting a knife in it when they are not there. It means you are not to “act cool” just to impress others. It means you are not to make promises to others just to get them to do something for you when you have no intention of fulfilling your end of the deal once they have done their part.
The little things we do in our daily lives can and do have big affects. Joseph-Anthony: Green
Prayer: Please Jehovah Chanan (God is gracious) bless me t be wise, meek and gracious to all that cross my path just as Your beloved son was I request this valuable gift in the name of my mentor Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.
‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says,’ whether they listen or fail to listen.” Ezekiel 3:10 New International Version.
It does not matter if Jehovahs words are accepted by the politically correct or not, they do not change. It also applies to the wolves amongst the lambs.
Personally I have found more resistance from the wolves than from the politically correct. The wolves are the domineering, self righteous within the church. Oh they are good at picking and choosing verses to manipulate others or to condemn them but when you point out their errors their mantra is always the same:” You do not know the Bible (does anybody truly know everything in the Bible), You are manipulating the Bible (funny how it is them that is manipulating he Bible. A good one is where it says children are to be obedient to their parents. But, point out to them that parents are not to anger their children which usually means do as I say not do as I do, and see how fast they say you are manipulating the Bible) , that is not what it means. So when they self righteously condemn you in front of others to make themselves look so “holy” and you retort with” Judge not, that you be not judged.For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you” Matthew 7:1-2 New King James Version is a common one for me.
Prayer: Please Jehovah KalEl (voice of God) bless me to always be attentive and obedient to Your life giving word. I humbly beseech You in the name of he who was and is always attentive and obedient to Your clear word Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.
Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things.See how great a forest a little fire kindles!And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire by hell. James 3:5-6 New King James Version
How many arguments have you started at school or work just for the enjoyment of it?
I have met many warped souls like that that take great delight in starting little arguments whenever they have the opportunity and just fan the flames. Then they sit back and laugh in wicked glee, when they are called on it they act innocent. This can and does destroy relationships.
Have you ever gossiped about someone just for the sake of talking? What you said whether innocently or intentionally can and does have consequences. I know creature that their favourite hobby is gossiping.
Then when they are called on it they act innocent. This can and does destroy relationships.
This also has consequences.
Jehovah is a god of justice and what you do to others will be done sevenfold back to you at your weakest moment.
Prayer: Please Jehovah Elohim (God our creator) create in me a tongue that flows with the sweetness of honey rather than the bitterness of dung. In so doing H shall be bringing honour and praise to Your holy name and be healing and encouraging to those in need. I humbly ask this privilege in the name of He whose words healed so many hurting souls Christ Jesus. Amen.
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.
Who can fathom the Spiritof the Lord,or instruct the Lord as his counselor. Isaiah 40:13 New International Version
Do you try to give Jehovah advice?
Sounds stupid doesn’t it but how many souls do?
For example if you are applying for a job do you pray that Jehovah blesses you with the job or do you take the time to pray and ask if this is where He wants you to be? If His answer is not want you want to hear do you still obey?
I have been on both sides of the coin and can share with you that when I stubbornly and arrogantly refused to listen and obey His direction there was a heavy price to pay.
Usually the supervisors were dictators and they cheated me out my wages as well. On the other hand when I did listen and obey, not matter how crazy it seemed to be I was rewarded with good supervisors and excellent pay.
It is the same with relationships whether it is with friends or with possible marriage mates.
So if you desire a lot less agony and frustration in your life learn to listen and obey Jehovahs guidance instead of giving it to Him.
Prayer: Please Jehovah KaEl (voice of God) bless this child to always be attentive and obedient to Your divine guidance in my life. I humbly request this in the name of Your most obedient son Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love bless you today and every day.
