Godly thoughts – Acceptable speech pattern – Christ centered motives

Word:  “Don’t you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body? But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them. For out of the heart come evil thoughts—murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander. These are what defile a person; but eating with unwashed hands does not defile them.” Matthew 15:17-20

Thought: We work hard to keep our outward appearance attractive, but what is deep down in our heart is more important to God. When people become followers of Christ, God makes them different on the inside. He will continue the process of transformation inside them if only they ask and seek. God wants us to have a healthy relationship with Him and others by Godly thoughts, acceptable speech pattern and Christ centered motives.

Who is your guide?

Be strong in the Lord and His mighty power. Ephesians 6: 10

Word:

Jesus called the crowd to him and said, “Listen and understand. What goes into someone’s mouth does not defile them, but what comes out of their mouth that is what defiles them.” Then the disciples came to him and asked, “Do you know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this?” He replied, “Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by the roots.  Leave them; they are blind guides. If the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit.” Matthew 15:10-14

Thought:  Who is your guide? Make sure that those you listen to and learn from are those with good spiritual eyesight – they teach and follow the principles of Scripture.

Jesus doesn’t need fans but needs disciples (Those who listen to His word and put it in to action).

Jesus appears to Seven Disciples

Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Word: Jesus appears to Seven Disciples

John 21: 1-14

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John%2021%3A1-14&version=NASB;NIV

And if Christ has not been raised, then your faith has nothing to it; you are still guilty of your sins. And those in Christ who already died are lost. If our hope in Christ for this life only, we should be pitied more than anyone else in the world. 1 Corinthians 15: 17-19

JESUS 1

Thought: The truth of Christianity rests heavily on the Resurrection. His disciples, those who claimed to have seen the risen Jesus went on to turn the world upside down. Most of them also died for being followers of Christ.

How can you come close to God?

May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace. I Cor 1: 3

Word: James 4: 1 – 12 – Submit Yourselves to God and His Plans

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=James%204%3A%201-12&version=NIV

Verses 7-8 says – Humble yourselves before God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Come close to God, and God will come close to you.

90

Thought: How can you come close to God?

Remember your call and never forget your identity in Christ Jesus. Accept God’s way of living in every phase of your life.

Humble yourselves before God. Yield to His authority and will, commit your life to Him and His control and be willing to follow Him. Resist the devil in Jesus’ name. Don’t permit devil’s traps to entice and tempt you.

Precious blood of Christ Jesus

Be strong in the Lord and His mighty power. Ephesians 6: 10
For you know that it is not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your forefathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect. …..Through Him you believe in God, who raised him from the dead and glorified him, and so your faith and hope are in God. (1 Peter 1: 18-21)

Thought:
It is through His death on the cross as God’s perfect sacrifice for sin and His resurrection three days later that we can now have eternal life if we believe in him. The fact that God Himself has provided the offering that atones for our sin is part of the glorious good news of the gospel.

Power of God

Word:

One thing God has spoken, two things I have heard: “Power belongs to you, God, Psalms 62: 11

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. 1 John 1: 7

For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect. He was chosen before the creation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake. Through him you believe in God, who raised him from the dead and glorified him, and so your faith and hope are in God.  1 Peter 1: 18 – 21.

Thought:

There is power, power, wonder-working power in the blood of the Lamb;

There is power, power, wonder-working power in the precious blood of the Lamb. Lewis E. Jones, 1899
