Word for Today: You are Blessed.
Ministry Of the Word (MOW): True Spirituality (TS).
Improving Our Spiritual Understanding.
Memory Verse:
“Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you” (Luke 6:28).
Dearly Beloved
“But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you” ( Matthew 5:44)
Brethren, it sounds logical to react with anger and bad word in retaliation when we feel insulted, especially if the allegations are false. It sounds logical to curse our enemies. However, this is not what the Word of God (JESUS) is asking us to do. Truly, it’s difficult for the natural man to bless his enemies. Only a regenerated person filled with the Holy Spirit of God can accomplish this.
Apostle Paul also stressed this teaching in his epistle to the Romans:
“Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not. Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep” ( Romans 12:14-15).
Further down, he added:
“Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.
If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men” (Romans 12:17-18).
Word’s divine rule:
“Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets” (Matthew 7:12).
Stay connected to JESUS, the Word. Be wise. Be enlightened.
Become a DISCIPLE, AMBASSADOR and a MISSIONARY for Jesus Christ daily.
Ensure you think no evil against anyone.
Be sensitive to the Holy Spirit.
Be compassionate and kind to one another.
Thank you JESUS for a new day and the blessings that flow from your word.
Prayer Point
There is someone reading this message, receive the grace to stay connected to the Word daily in Jesus mighty name. Amen.
Yours in the Vineyard of Christ.
