“WHY NEGATIVE THOUGHTS DO NOT PRODUCE WORDS OF LIFE!”

“WHY NEGATIVE THOUGHTS DO NOT PRODUCE WORDS OF LIFE!” James 3:2 NLT “We all make many mistakes, but those who control their tongues can also control themselves in every other way.” One of the greatest problems all believers can struggle with from time to time is the words that come out of their own mouths. One reason we have trouble with our words is because our thoughts are not in line with God’s Word. [To read this devotion, click on link]

“RESIST satan STEADFAST IN FAITH!”

1 Peter 5:9 “Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.” When it comes to being submitted to Him, it is important to understand that by being submitted to God’s authority, it positions you for His promises to work in your life, as they should. And anything other than submission is rebellion.

“WHAT’S IN YOUR MOUTH?”

Romans 10:8 “But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach):” This verse comes from Deuteronomy 30:14 which says, “But the word is very near you, in your mouth and in your heart, that you may do it.” Have you seen the television commercial that asks the question, “What’s in your wallet?” This particular commercial is advertising a credit card, but in facing life today, there are many things that a correct credit card will not solve.

“ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH!”

Matthew 9:29-30 “²⁹Then He touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith let it be to you.” ³⁰And their eyes were opened.” On more than one occasion, Jesus is recorded making similar statements like this one… “According to your faith let it be to you.” Why would Jesus make such statements? You may ask, “Why doesn’t God just snap His fingers and fix my mess?” I mean, if God is God, then why not fix all of our problems instantly? Great question.

“WHAT IS THE DANGER OF UNCONFESSED SIN?”

“WHAT IS THE DANGER OF UNCONFESSED SIN?” 1 John 1:9 “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” There is a lot of debate going around about this single verse of scripture. Some say this verse was not written to Christians, but to or about the Gnostics of that day. Some even believe that when a Christian sins, there is nothing that needs to do about it—since Jesus has already paid the entire debt for sin. So, why confess sin to God?

“WHAT PEOPLE WANT TO KNOW ABOUT CREATION, BUT NEVER ASK!”

Genesis 1:1-2 “¹In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. ²The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.” There are many debates within the Christian and scientific world about creation, dinosaurs and how it all came into being. Some say that dinosaurs roamed the earth and then there was an ice age. There really are biblical, scientific and common sense answers to it all.
