Tag: What the Bible says about doing Good

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-7-20

Proverbs 14:22 (NKJV) 22 Do they not go astray who devise evil? But mercy and truth belong to those who devise good.

How blessed are we to walk each day in this promise? Both mercy and truth are ours as children of God!

Sometimes we may wonder why we follow Jesus, our Savior. We might wonder why we do what He commands us to do, even on those days when it’s hard and we just want to throw in the towel.

This verse right here says it all; mercy and truth belong to us!

Just so we all know, we are not alone. It’s not easy at times choosing the “GOOD” road or the right thing to do. But it’s well worth every bit of it to have such a wonderful life with Him.

Keep planning to “devise good” and don’t give evil even a fleeting thought. Don’t give it even an inch of leeway, because it will cause us to stray. Keep our face like a flint. Press in, and push forward. God is for us! Amen.

Romans 8:31 (NKJV) 31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-25-18

2 Thessalonians 3:13 (NKJV) 13 But as for you, brethren, do not grow weary in doing good.

Some days it can feel like doing good is impossible.

We have been commanded by God to do right by everyone, to do all things as unto Him, and to love everyone we encounter.

Most times this isn’t a problem. But then there are those times when it feels like doing good is a huge fight.

This might be because we have been fought so hard. It might be because the person we are trying to do right by is mean and wicked in their ways. Or it might just be that we are tired… worn out from trying.

But God has told us not to grow weary in doing good. So how do we do that? How do we continually do good without reaching a point where we simply want to throw our hands up in the air and walk away?

There’s only one way. We need to make sure we’re doing things by the Spirit of God, not by our own natural strength.

Let’s face it; Our flesh is weak. It will only take us just so far before it wants to give up and sit down.

But God’s spirit is strong and mighty. So we need to let God teach us how to live and move by His spirit, not by our flesh or our emotions.

This takes time, but it will happen if we put forth the effort and have the desire for it. We need to draw near to God, and as we do so, He will strengthen our spirit.

Psalm 73:28 (NKJV) 28 But it is good for me to draw near to God; I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, That I may declare all Your works.
