Bible Verse of The Day – 5-16-13

(1 John 5:12 NKJV)  He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.

Do we ever wonder why, when we are around other believers or Christians, we have a good time and sometimes we don’t want our time with them to end?

Well, it is mainly because they are full of God… they have life in them. They have peace, love and JOY running through their blood. This is the gift of being in Christ!

We need to pay attention to who we get involved with. If they belong to God we will know and let me tell you that if they are not, we will know. Spending too much time with people that are not God’s children will bring us down…no matter how we look at it. There is no life in them and they will bring death to those around them.

This doesn’t mean we don’t reach out to those that don’t know God, but we must let the Holy Spirit guide us in doing so. We can not do this on our own.

Reaching out is different then HANGING out. Let us not kid ourselves today in saying, “we are just trying to help them. They need me.”

If we are being pulled into their arena, we are not helping them. They are hurting us and our relationship with Christ.

Be blessed.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-25-13

(1 Corinthians 15:33 NKJV)  Do not be deceived: “Evil company corrupts good habits.”

Even though we are to shine God’s light throughout this earth, we also need to understand that we have to be careful who we spend a lot of time with.

We can shine God’s light in a situation but it doesn’t mean we need to live there. Shine the light and move on.

If we stay in the company of evil for a too long it can begin to corrupt us and the goodness within us.

It doesn’t take long. Be aware of it and take precautions.
