“The godly may trip seven times, but they will g

“The godly may trip seven times, but they will get up again. But one disaster is enough to overthrow the wicked.”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭24:16‬ ‭NLT‬‬
I particularly like how the Good News Bible translates this verse: ““No matter how often...”
I like to compare this scripture with the way we all learned to walk; had we quit after falling once or even that one hundredth time, we would have remained seated. But, just as we don’t stop, quit, throw in the towel, in the natural realm, so we should be in the spiritual realm. In fact our spiritual realm should be the forerunner to our natural realm. And just how are we in our spirit? Whole. Sound. Healed. Delivered. Restored. Prosperous. Abounding. Nothing missing, nothing broken. Our spirit man is 100% perfect and in complete right standing with God. That is why when we fall, we can just grab onto daddy Gods hand and confidently know that He is there to help us back up. He’ll wipe the dirt and grime off, tell us how much He loves us, and encourages us that through Christ we can! Know that you are not in this walk alone, the Lord is your shepherd, your helper, your advocate, your redeemer, healer, deliverer, provider, your everything! It’s not like at any time we had obtained any righteousness on our own, it has always and only been because of Jesus that we obtained our righteousness status to begin with, and so it will remain only because of Jesus that we can continue to claim such status. Praise God for His immeasurable gift that makes it possible for us to keep getting up, and keep getting better at walking this walk!

How many truths are there? I can confidently say,

How many truths are there? I can confidently say, “One!” John 17:17b declares, “...: thy word is truth.” Of course this is only a viable defence if you adhere to the Word of God. In this letter the apostle John was so pleased to hear that his “children”, those to whom he had brought the gospel, were continuing to walk in the Truth. This means that they were following the directions of John, who had come by these instructions from a much higher authority, namely, the authority of Christ. “And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.”
‭‭John‬ ‭1:14‬ ‭KJV‬‬. This is what we are supposed to embody. This is the Truth that we are supposed to represent. Gods Word. As believers we have the obligation, calling, to be ministers of the Truth of the gospel. I am determined to, like these believers, continually walk in THE TRUTH.

I’m going to focus our attention on verse seven.

I’m going to focus our attention on verse seven. Let me quote it from three translations, first the NLT, “They are always thinking about how much it costs. “Eat and drink,” they say, but they don’t mean it.”
Secondly the Amplified, “For as he thinks in his heart, so is he [in behavior—one who manipulates]. He says to you, “Eat and drink,” Yet his heart is not with you [but it is begrudging the cost].”
Finally the most familiar to me, “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.”
In the New Living Translations the meaning is somewhat vague, but it is made abundantly clear in the other two translations. While the beginning of this chapter is all about proper etiquette when dining with the rich and famous, there is obviously more being brought to light here in verse seven. As he thinks in his heart so is he... What is clearly being stated is that what is on the inside of a person, in their heart, their innermost being is what they are indeed made of. While they can be saying the right things, acting the part, appearing generous in the way they offer you food even, ultimately it is what is on the inside of them that determines who they really are...what they really think.
After being ‘mistreated’ by a wealthy woman, I said to John, “when I am rich, I will be kind!” He answered, “you are kind!” I missed the point and said, “yes, and I will stay that way even when I am rich!” John said (more emphatically) “Julie (he rarely calls me Julia) you are rich! Now! In Christ we are rich! Not going to be, we are...and we are kind!” My lightening fast mind got it then. As I thought in my heart so was I. I am rich...in Christ now! I am the healed in Christ...today! I am the free in Christ...today! I am ________in Christ...NOW!!! I personally have changed my thinking, having renewed my mind on Gods Word and when I offer you a second, more generous helping of food, guess what? I mean it! ☺️

Honour - yup, that’s a Bible word

“Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭13:7‬ ‭KJV‬‬
My mother in law is with the Lord, but it is never too late to give honour to those to whom it is due, and Josephine Trotter, was one of these people. She was a woman of great ability, wisdom, immeasurable godly strength, and integrity and she lived a life dedicated to the Lord Jesus Christ. Without question she was a godly woman that opened her home and heart to all. She was also godly role model for the women at our church and yet her influence didn’t stop there. She was compassionate, meek, and endeavoured to always listen to the leading of the Holy Spirit. Of course she was not perfect, and I’m not saying that, but I am saying that she was deserving of honour. Who are we honouring today? Do they display godly traits? adhere to the Word of God? put others before themselves? Be wise who you give your honour to, because ultimately they become your leader. Determine to honour and thereby follow the example of those who reflect the Lord Jesus, to whom the greatest honour is due!
