-God

"I will heal you because I love you." -God

That's twice in one week He has spoke this to me. Once was in past tense and one in future tense. I am posting it here to bring His promise back to myself when I need it. Hope it blesses you, too.

Random Thoughts

Random thoughts for today...

Most important ***Yesterday God said to me, "I saved you because you are precious to me."***

What the Bible says about flattery...
Psalms 36:2 For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful.
Romans 16:18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
Proverbs 28:23 He that rebuketh a man afterwards shall find more favour than he that flattereth with the tongue.
Proverbs 7:21-23 With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him. He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks; Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life.
Proverbs 29:5 A man that flattereth his neighbour spreadeth a net for his feet.
Job 17:5 He that speaketh flattery to his friends, even the eyes of his children shall fail.

Proverbs 28:23 He that rebuketh a man afterwards shall find more favour than he that flattereth with the tongue.
 
What the Bible says about tattle tailing...
"Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins." 1 Peter 4:8
"He who goes about as a talebearer reveals secrets, But he who is trustworthy conceals a matter." Proverbs 11:13
“Now the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God and the authority of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, he who accuses them before our God day and night." Revelation 12:10

Anger…when it’s Holy

Two things of anger we know from Ephesians 4:26, “Be angry, and yet do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, 

Jesus was without sin so He met these qualifications yet still read the following instances in the gospels when Jesus was angry.
Rebuke of a Disciple - Matthew 16:21-23, Mark 8:31-33
Cleansing the Temple - Matthew 21:12-17, Mark 11:15-19, Luke 19:45-48, John 2:13-25
Cursing the Fig Tree – Matthew 21:18-22, Mark 11:12-14
The Woes – Matthew 23:13-36, Luke 11:37-54
Healing on the Sabbath – Mark 3:1-5
Children in the Kingdom - Mark 10:13-16
Teaching on Offense - Luke 17:1-4
Jesus rebukes the storm – Matthew 8:23-27, Mark 4:35-41
Jesus rebukes demons – Matthew 17:14-21, Mark 1:21-28, Luke 4:31-37, Luke 9:37-43
Jesus rebukes sickness - Luke 4:38-39 
What happens if your anger does not fall under these categories?  According to Ephesians 4:27, “and do not give the devil an opportunity.” NASB

God created in us the emotion of anger…we need to be sure to use it in a righteous, rather than self-righteous way.
For Further Study Read: Ephesians 4:17-32

Healing, line upon line...

Luke 6:45 says…” The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth what is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth what is evil; for his mouth speaks from that which fills his heart.”  

And according to Proverbs 18:21, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.”

So meditate on Isaiah 53:5, ”But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

And speak Psalm 118:17, “I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord.
