Morality.

                                                                              Morality . Where there is no Morality, there is Immortality. In those days Israel had no king; “everyone did what seemed right in their own eyes”.   (Judges 17:6) Everyone Does “What Seems Right In Their Own Eyes”; Immorality. Our Daily Nugget highlights a period of significant moral, spiritual, and political chaos, emphasizing the lack of central, godly leadership led people to follow personal, subjective standards, rather than God’s law. Morality - The principles of right and wrong behavior rooted in the character of God and revealed through Scripture.   It goes beyond outward obedience (legality) to focus on the heart’s (mind’s) alignment with God’s Holiness, anchored in loving God and loving others. ...

Gossip.

                                                                                Gossip. Gossipers Listens to Gossip. A troublemaker plants seeds of strife; “gossip separates the best of friends”.   (Proverbs 16:28) Fire goes out without wood, and “quarrels disappear when gossip stops”.   (Proverbs 26:20) Do the Lord, Yourself, and Your Neighbor a Favor: “Refuse to Obey the Demon of Gossip”!   Gossip, it’s Destiny and Purpose. Our Daily Nugget is a warning against “gossip”, describing it as a destructive force that separates friends, ruins reputations, and “stems from a lack of self-control”.   Kingdom Citizens must not obey the demon of gossip and we must refuse to listen to gossipers.                        ...

Be Slow To Speak.

                                                                      Be Slow To Speak! Loose Lips Produces a “Worthless Religion”. My dewar brothers and sisters, take note of this Everyone should be Quick to Listen, “Slow to Speak” and Slow to Become Angry.   (James 1:19) Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues “deceive themselves”, and “Their Religion is Worthless”.   (James 1:26) Our Daily Nugget advises thoughtful, measured communication over hasty reactions, aiming to avoid sin, reduce conflict, and reflect God’s Righteousness rather than “impulsive human anger”. Just Consider what is going on in our Thinking Process, our Heart/Mind, when we “Feel” a need to Speak Quickly, Fast.   Is it not a sign of “Insecurity”? To be “Quick to Speak” is a sin;...

Have Christ Chosen You?

                                                                  Have Christ Chosen You? The Destiny of Christ’s Servant. If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first.   If you belonged to the world, “it would love you as its own”.   As it is, you do not belong to the world, but “I have chosen you out of the world”.   “That Is Why The World Hates You”.   Remember what I told you: A servant is not greater than his master.   If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also.   If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also.   They will treat you this way because of my name, “for they do not know the one who sent me”.   (John 15:18-21)   Religion and Tradition Are part of “The World”. The people who crucified Jesus were guided by Religion and Tradition. Peopl...

Rubbish.

                                                                               Rubbish. Trash to Treasure! Yes, now that I know Christ Jesus as my Lord, that is the most valuable thing.   “Nothing Else Is Important At All”.   I have thrown everything else away, so that I can serve Christ.   All those other things are like Rubbish to me.   I think about them like   that, so that I can have Christ.   (Philippians 3:8) “Knowing Christ” and “Knowing of Christ” are two totally different things and “Kinds of Knowledge”.   All people probably know of Christ, but, most people do not “Know Christ”.   To “Know Christ”   is to   “count all things as rubbish” compared to the “Gain From Knowing Christ”.   To “Know Of Christ” is to consider things as...

Temptation.

                                                                              Temptation. Resist It or Submit To It? So “Submit” to (the authority of) God.   “Resist” the devil (stand firm against him) and “he will flee from you”.   “Come near to God and He will come near to you”.   “Wash your hands, you sinners”, and “purify your hearts (minds), you double-minded”.   “Grieve, mourn and wail”.   “Change your laughter to morning and your joy into gloom”.   “Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will lift you up”. (James 4:7-10)) NO, We Are Not “Just Weak”!   Are you Actively Resisting or Are you Actively Submitting? Our Daily Nugget is God’s Blueprint to us on “How To Handle Temptation”. Through Christ we have the “Authority and Power to Make the Devil Flee”...

Be Complete.

                                                                             Be Complete. My Real Love; The Word or The World? The young man said to Him, “all these I have kept; what am I still lacking”?   Jesus said to him, “If you want to be Complete”, go and sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.   But when the young man heard this statement, he went away grieving; for he was one who owned much property.   (Matthew 19:20-22) I Kept the Commandments, but I Loved The World. Our Daily Nugget is another example of the “deceit and deception” of Satan.   We have a rich young man who owned much property.   He was a Believer and wanted Jesus to tell him what he needed to do to “obtain eternal life”.   Jesus ...
