Romans 3:4 says” May it never be! Rather, let God be found true, though every man be found a liar, as it is written, “THAT YOU MAY BE JUSTIFIED IN YOUR WORDS, AND PREVAIL WHEN YOU ARE JUDGED.
Let me ask you a question and before you answer really give it some thought. What is more important to you, proving to someone how wrong they are , by having it your way or pleasing God? We as Believers aren’t to push it down their throats, for only God Himself can deal with mans hearts.
But sadly enough we have to many saints trying to prove their point instead of showing Jesus. To me this is sad because Jesus is everything and all the time people spend trying to get their point across they just left Jesus right out as if He is not the center of life. If this is you may today be the day you repent and ask the Lord to show you why you feel you must have it your way because truth be told it’s not about us anyway, It’s all about Jesus, AMEN
Let God be true – Let God be esteemed true and faithful, whatever consequence may follow. This was a first principle, and should be now, that God should be believed to be a God of truth, whatever consequence it might involve. How happy would it be, if all people would regard this as a fixed principle, a matter not to be questioned in their hearts, or debated about, that God is true to his word! How much doubt and anxiety would it save professing Christians; and how much error would it save among sinners

“But sadly enough we have to many saints trying to prove their point instead of showing Jesus.”
I have been coming across this repeatedly over the last couple of weeks. Not sure what is happening….
Proverbs 20:3 says “It is to a man’s honor to avoid strife, but every fool is quick to quarrel.” I am not at all perfect. As a matter of fact, far from it, that is why I pray for Him to lead and guide me. The flesh in me will naturally want to respond, but sometimes walking away is the best move.
Recognizing the finiteness of who I am, and the fact that I am prone to error, I try hard not to cast judgement. It is not always the easiest thing to do, so I ask Him to help me respond in love when I need to respond and to season my speech with grace. Deb at Two Minutes Of Grace wrote a beautiful peace on having a corner on truth. Every now and then I pop back in and read it.
If what I do does not point to Jesus being the Way, the Truth and the Life, then I don’t want to do it. At all.
Blessings,
ann
Ann you are so right that flesh of ours has to die daily…it loves strife it wants to be right all the time…
Thank you for sharing this in such a way so that we can see that we make it about us instead of Jesus, when we settle into strife. God bless you, dear Desiray, as He speaks His heart to us through you today.
thank you Debbie and may He do the same through you my dear, for we all are His children and God has something to say to us all..
