A Debtor In Thanks? by kpakpandoN(m): 7:01am On Aug 30, 2013 |
To bcom a divine favourite,u must be ready 2 be different.Wen pple re busy discussing tins of no heavenly value,u wil keep dem @ a distance. 2Timothy 2:23 says an individual must avoid foolish nd unlearned questions,while Ephesians 5:4says,"Neither filthiness,nor foolish talking,not jesting,which are not convenient:but rather giving of thanks". Instead of saying anytin dat does nt glorify God or make jest of pple,God expects u 2 give Him thanks.In oda words,in God's estimation,all d man hours wasted on filthy or immoral communication, gossips, exaggerations nd jesting re seen as time 4 thanksgiving dat was not given 2 God.Dis means if u hav spent 1hour speaking wat does nt edify urself nd odas or glorify God,u hav just robbed God of an hour of thanksgiving.By d time God uses dis scripture 2 take stock of our lives;pple wil owe Him so much in thanksgiving.Stop complaining of d nation or of bad leaders;complaining does nt stop dem 4rm deir evil.Rather use such time 2 thank God nd pray 4 dem,dis wil deliver u sumtin worthwhile. Divine favourites do nt waste deir time in frivolities bt use free moments 2 appreciate deir God.Dey spend time discussing heavenly tins.Dey re nt only special bt also peculiar.Pple must be able 2 look @ u nd say dat u re different.D definition of fanatical Christianity is actually dat d fellow loves Jesus more dan u do.If odas decide 2 soil deir hands in dat business deal,u wil remember according to Psalm 24:3-5,dat ur hands nd hrt must be clean,nd so u would rather choose nt 2 join dem.U re special 2 God.U cannot afford 2 behave like odas.Eagles do nt eat dead animals.It is vultures dat do dat nd may even prefer rotten ones.Are u an eagle or vulture? Ur Father is holy,hw come u do nt mind sinning? Be like d eagle u hav been called 2 be nd God wil back u up.Seperate 4rm all shady deals. In any case,re u a debtor 2 God in thanksgiving? |
