The Parable of the Sheep and the Goats: "Do I value others enough to put thei... - 0 views

  •  
    Love is neither theoretical nor abstract. The lover pays a price to love the loved. Jesus gave His life and thereby proved His love for us. He didn't, and indeed couldn't, just stay in Heaven and wish us into salvation; a price had to be paid. We too must be willing to pay any price to love our brethren; because each person has value and that value is the Blood of Christ, for that is the price He paid for each man, each woman.

Eternal Economics 101: Profit and Loss « Reflections in the WORD - 0 views

  •  
    A profit is an improvement resulting from a transaction… examine whether the transaction of exchanging our souls to gain the world puts us in a better position eternally. Because in God's ledger only salvation… counts as profit; only work in the Kingdom of God brings in revenue; everything else is loss.

Get your IN-Right to be Downright Upright « Reflections in the WORD - 0 views

  •  
    It is quite revealing to compare how much time, effort and money we spend on our outward appearance versus our heart (inward appearance). Think of how much is spent each day on preparing clothes, hair, skin, diet and physique. So much time, so much effort, so much money spent just to look good enough for those around us. How does it compare to the time and effort spent in preparing our hearts for God?

Anger Management « Reflections in the WORD - 0 views

  •  
    …Anger management takes practice and deliberate effort. However, we should always remember that God is on OUR side. As we develop the habit of constantly communicating with Him, as we practice seeking His will in everything, as we learn to live within His hedge of protection, we will gradually learn how to draw strength from Him when we are sorely aggravated. We CAN win the battle…

Redemption (Part 4): Knowledge [of God] is Power! « Reflections in the WORD - 0 views

  •  
    We CAN overcome sin by continually submitting our will to God's authority, by studying, memorizing and frequently contemplating God's Word, so that it can transform us by replacing our human desires with Godly desires. Then God's will and God's plan will consummate in us to produce righteousness to the Glory of God.

We can Only Walk in One Direction at a Time « Reflections in the WORD - 0 views

  •  
    True salvation is everything or it is nothing. To be a believer, a faithful follower of God, in Jeremiah's day, in Jesus' day and in our day means that God is at the center of our attention: that God alone is our motivation: God alone is our driving force: that He alone orders every step of our life.

Be ALL you SHOULD Be | Part 2: AN IRON PILLAR « Reflections in the WORD - 0 views

  •  
    Man has always measured success by material (financial) security and social standing and. So, the means to acquire these attributes have always been highly prized. God, however, measures success by spiritual security (salvation) and spiritual standing (righteousness), which are obtained not by human wisdom/knowledge but by faith and obedience.

Be ALL you SHOULD Be | Part 3: BRASEN WALLS « Reflections in the WORD - 0 views

  •  
    Real wealth is not found in the accumulation of the things that men say are valuable. We become truly wealthy when God… declares us valuable to Him because He can use us in His Kingdom. Don't let the blessings become more important than the Blesser.

How do you see things? « Reflections in the WORD - 0 views

  •  
    Jesus taught that if our eye, or the way we see things, is healthy, then our life can be filled with happiness. But if the way we see things, if our outlook or mindset is messed up, there is no end to how dark our life can be.

The Wrong Approach to Sin « Reflections in the WORD - 0 views

  •  
    No matter how much we deny, distort or disguise the evidence of sin, we can never change the fact of sin… Only God can remove the stain and penalty of sin. The longer we hide from Him the longer we have to live with the cancer of sin eating away at our lives… Nobody forces us to sin and God does not put us in a situation where we must sin. We are NOT powerless. We CAN choose to resist the influence of others. We CAN rise above our circumstances.

The Father's Good Gift « Reflections in the WORD - 0 views

  •  
    As Jesus sent His disciples out into a world that would be hostile to them, that would imprison them and beat them and kill them, what they needed to succeed wasn't a new car, or perfect teeth or a retirement plan. What they needed to live successfully (as God defines it) was The Comforter.
