Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived on this Earth, said that when it comes to war (finding solutions to problems), you need guidance. That means that what you know will not always be enough to battle the issues you face. So, normalise outsourcing of information to make your life better. But be careful where you get the information.
In Galatians 6:9, the Bible urges us to continue doing good to people as Christians without growing weary. But why? Because there’s a due season to reap our labour of good works.
We live in an evil age. So you’ve got to be circumspect in your interactions with people.
You can’t overpay the debt of love to the brethren. When Jesus said that we should love one another as His disciples, He didn’t put an expiry date to that command; neither did He add exceptions to it.
If you defend yourself against such an unbelieving person, he cannot understand you because he doesn’t think like you. So, if you shut up, it prevents you from giving him a basis to say evil things about you.
God is wise. He knew that the only thing that can stand the test of time without being subject to change is His Word. That is why He said, through Paul, that parents, fathers especially, must bring children up in the training and admonition of the Lord.
Many parents don’t understand that children are a heritage from the Lord (see Psalm 127:3). So they treat them as if they own them, even when they’re adults. Now, when your child is very tender, you must train him in God’s ways, disciplining him more strictly. But as the child grows into adulthood, don’t dominate their lives, especially when they are workers. If that happens, it’s really frustrating.
It’s quite hard for even some believers in Christ to recognise their fellow believers when they go to a different place. The compromise has become so much that accurate discernment is missing in several believers’ lives.
According to the wisest man who ever lived on the surface of this Earth, people who have knowledge spare his words. Furthermore, a man of understanding is of a calm spirit.
God has written in His Word that we, His people, should do all things without complaining and disputing. But why? Does it mean when something wrong is being done, we can’t talk? Of course not. The goal isn’t to complain but to make an impact in this perverse generation.
Almost everybody learns to be gentle. But gentility can be expressed better by believers who walk in understanding. Why? Because such people know how to do it with sincere God-inspired love from the heart.
The eternal life Jesus has given you is beyond what you physically have. It’s about knowing Him, so much so that every blessing from Him aids you in enjoying life as you fulfil your divine mandate. Live with Jesus as Your focus.
