DAILY BREAD OF LIFE




(KJV.)  EPHESIANS 4:25-27


(25)  Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.
(26)  Be ye angry, and sin not:  let not the sun go down upon your wrath:
(27) Neither give place to the devil.



LIVE PEACEABLY WITH ALL MEN!


(25)  Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.  Brethren, as believers and followers of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, we were redeemed by his blood shed on cross of Calvary and the Holy Spirit resides in our innermost spirits; therefore, we are to put away deeds of the old self; ways of ungodliness and walk in faith through the righteousness of our Father and Jesus Christ; all traits of ungodliness, such as lying to one another not telling the truth should be done away with the old self; and we are to speak truthfulness of matters to one another as one body in the faith of Jesus Christ;  question;  what will one gain by lying?  when we lie to others, we put ourselves in situations, whereby we have to make another lie to cover up initial lies, and over and over again; and we get tangle up in multiple lies and spider webs and entanglements of evil; and we become untrustworthy among our brethren;  for we are members one of another, and collectively, we are children of our Father and joint heirs through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior; therefore, let us be open and transparent with each other; for, as written, "For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad."(Luke 8:17);  therefore, believers should not lie to one another; for the Holy Spirit, the spirit of truth will reveal hidden secrets and all lies will be known abroad; let us walk in the righteousness of our Father through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ; and be truthful to one another: for, it is written, "These are the things that ye shall do; speak ye every man the truth to his neighbor; execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates; And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his neighbour; and love no false oath: for all these are things that I hate, saith the LORD." (Zechariah 8:16-17).

Brethren, let us be careful of our choices of words;  for, enemies of righteousness ears and eyes are open to receive our words and see what we do, and turn our successes into reproaches and plan evil to hinder our progress and destinations in life; when they hear the truth, they will find ways to formulate the truth into words of hatred and reproaches;  but they already failed; for, our Father will work all things together for good, for those who are called according to his purposes; therefore, when enemies reproach, let us not worry, be hateful or be fearful; for Jesus Christ is still in control of our lives; and will forever be in control; when his enemies reproach him on the cross of Calvary, Jesus said; "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do."(Luke 23:34):  therefore, let us pray for our enemies, forgive them of all wrong doings; let us not hate, curse or wish them evil for their evil works, but ask our Father to give them sanctified hearts to walk in righteousness and be true believers in Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior; and not allow the enemy to use them to do evil against others; for it is written, "Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to the man by whom the offense cometh!" (Matthew 18:7);  the question is; how can we work together as one body of Christ, with one common goal to conquer darkness of this world for Jesus Christ; if there are divisions, lies, hatreds and reproaches among ourselves?  Is Christ divided?   this is the ponder question for all believers;  love and unity matters, in the body of Christ; let the enemy be put to shame forevermore.

(26)  Be ye angry, and sin not:  let not the sun go down upon your wrath:  Brethren, as believers, if we are not in spirit enough; the enemy will bring evil matters and concerns to our attentions, if we are not careful, we will react negatively, get angry and sin against ourselves; however, it is not an offense to get angry; it becomes a sin, when we refuse to let go of our anger; but hang on to what happened and grudge over them, lose sleep, thinking of our actions and reactions to take against our offenders; in other words, what type of vengeance to take on our offenders;  however, we are to let go of those offenses that caused the wrath; for vengeance belongs to our Father; it is written; "Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for,  Vengeance is mine;  I will repay, saith the Lord." (Romans 12:19); at times, we find it very difficult to let go of offenses right away after incidences, but we can do all things through Christ which strengthen us; in those circumstances, we have to pray, ask for forgiveness of sins, for we grieve the Holy Spirit within us when get angry; and pray for our offenders, whether we are right or wrong in matters; it does not matter; but let us leave everything in the hands of Jesus Christ; he is a rightful judge and will put all matters in proper perspectives; for, it is written; "Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.....Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil." (Psalm 37:7-8); therefore, when we are offended by others, let us not bear grudges, and darken our hearts; and grieve the Holy Spirit of our Father; but when we pray, he will take absolute control of all matters of controversies and will grant us peace and joy everlasting;  today, if we bear any grudges or malice against our fellow brethren; let go, Jesus Christ, did it all on cross of Calvary; forgive one another; for, it is written; "But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses."(Mark 11:26);  also, when we forgive others their trespasses, the Father will answer our prayers; therefore, let us forgive and forget our offenses and receive grace and peace forevermore.

(27) Neither give place to the devil.  Brethren, when we hold on to offenses, grudge over what happened, what we should do or not to do; our minds, spirits and bodies are unrest; and negative demonic spirits are in control; however, we can submit everything in the hands of our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior; resit the devil and he will flee away from us; peace will enter into our spirits and we will have joy everlasting;  therefore, let us not allow the enemy into our territory by harboring malice and grudges in our innermost spirits; but let peace reign supreme in our mortal bodies, and live peaceably with all men forevermore.

CONCLUSION:


Dearly beloved, let us continue to walk in truthfulness; and let our enemies continue to speak evil against us; they did to Jesus Christ, and even much more to points of sufferings, death on the cross and resurrection to save humanity from bondage of iniquities to grace and life everlasting; though enemies reproach Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, our Father used all his sufferings for good, to redeem humanity from all iniquities, grant salvation and grace; therefore, our enemies are working indirectly for our Father;  let us not resist their evil works, but pray that the will of our Father will be accomplished completely in our lives; so we can receive crown of glories and inherit life everlasting; today, are we overburden with anger, anxieties, or troubles of this life?  Jesus is waiting to give us grace and peace forever and evermore.  Let us come unto him with all your troubles, there is rest in him forever and evermore!  Amen and Amen!

QUOTE OF THE DAY:


(KJV.)  Psalm 4:4  Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still.  Selah
