The Mirror...Who are You?

"Help, Lord, for no one is faithful anymore;
    those who are loyal have vanished" - Psalms 12:1


This verse made me think about the messed up generation we are in. Who knows, their might even be a WW3! David, guided by God's Spirit, was talking about those who worship people as their god. Faithless in God. This is very dangerous because we are an easy target for the Devil. Then we blame God. For something that we did. We chose to Sin. Not God. Only true Christians who mirror Jesus can be called a loyal person. "If anyone hears the Word but does not act upon it, is like someone who has looked in a mirror but after looking in, forget what they look like" - James 1:23-24 

Some of us are like that. We look in the mirror to see Jesus, us, in it and blessings all around us. But within minutes, we forget who we are and continue living against the ways of God. The verse continues: "But the person who looks into the mirror of liberty and God's law and continues to follow it, and is not only hearing the Word but acting upon It, will be blessed in what they do" - James 1:25

We should remember who we are in Christ and mirror Jesus, who shows us how to be today. "Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever" - Hebrews 13:8. So, if we keep looking, we will continue looking like Jesus!

Revere Christ as Lord!

"But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect." - 1 Peter 3:15. Whenever we are being trialled or tested for our faith, we should never deny it. Take the opportunity to tell them about God. Preach to them and give them the chance to hear about God. It may work, it may not. But all you know is, you accomplished your part of the mission. You've preached to them. Now it's there decision to come to Christ. Notice the Bible says do it with GENTLENESS. We don't use violence to try and preach the Gospel. We don't force people to believe in our reality. We use one of the fruit of the spirit (See Galatians 5:22 for a full list) Now you may wonder why Peter says 'with respect' when God says: "Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:" - Acts 10:34.
“Know that the LORD, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭100:3‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ http://bible.com/114/psa.100.3.nkjv

Most Powerful

8 I have set the Lord always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. (‭Psalms‬ ‭16‬:‭8‬ KJV) In this verse, David is actually having a revelation about Jesus from the Holy Ghost. Let me explain. You see- as Christians, Jesus is the one who is before us. The One we follow. He is at our right hand and protects us. And because of Him, we are not moved. The Lord is you Leader, Provider and Guide. Without him, your steps would be without guide and you would have no knowledge of the path you are taking. You would be vulnerable to Satan and he will be able to destroy you. But-thank God- he can't destroy us. Christ lives in us, the most powerful Thing ever!
