Above Reproach.

                                                                      Above Reproach. To be Peculiar and Unspotted “From The World”. True devotion, the kind that is “pure and faultless” before God the Father, is this: “To Care For Orphans and Widows in their Difficulties" and to “Keep The World From Contaminating Us”.   (James 1:27) If you want to be Peculiar and Unspotted   from the world “Love Your Neighbor The Same Way You Love Yourself”.   Our Daily Nugget is letting us know that Being Peculiar and Unspotted “Is Not” Living Without Committing Sin; it is Loving People.   Love is doing for others, filling their needs.   Being Peculiar and Unspotted is also “keeping yourself from looking and living like the world”. Peculiar -   A “Special Possession”, or “Treasured People”, exclusivel...

Joy.

                                                                                     Joy.   “Joy” as a Medicine. A cheerful heart (mind) is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.   (Proverbs 17:22) Joy is as a “Healing Agent for the Body and the Emotions”. Our Daily Nugget is emphasizing the connection between “mental attitude” (Thinking) and physical health; suggesting that “Joy Promotes Healing and Vitality”, while depression or severe sorrow can negatively impact physical strength and well-being.   A Life of sin and wrongdoing, Prevents Joy and Promotes Depression! Solomon, the “wisest man to have every lived”, is saying that both Joy and Depression starts between our ears through Thinking.   Joy nor depression is the fruit of our circu...

Opened Eyes.

                                                                           Opened Eyes. With Opened Eyes, “We Can See”. Then Elisha prayed, “O God, “open his eyes and let him see”.  The eyes of the young man were opened and he saw.  A wonder!  The whole mountainside full of horses and chariots of fire surrounding Elisha!  When the Armeans attacked, Elisha prayed to God, “Strike these people blind!”  And GOD struck them blind, just as Elisha said.  Then Elisha called out to them, “Not that way!  Not this city!”  Follow me and I’ll lead you to the man you’re looking for (Which was Elisha).  And he led them into Samaria.  As they entered the city, Elisha prayed, O God, “open their eyes”.  They looked around-“They Were Trapped In Samaria”.  ...

The Doors.

                                                                              The Doors. The Narrow and the Wide Doors. Go in through the “Narrow Door”.  The door is wide and the road is easy “that leads to hell”.  Many people are going through that door.  But the door is narrow and “the road is hard that leads to life” that lasts forever.  “Few People Are Finding It”.  (Matthew 7:13&14) Endeavor to “Preserve”; “It’s Worth It”; Ask Jesus. To Love your neighbor as you love yourself, is “not easy”, “it’s hard”;  Ask Jesus. Our Daily Nugget is letting us know that to “Love Like Jesus Loved” is not easy, but hard.  Kingdom Citizens “welcomes hard”, because we know what’s on the other side of each door.  We are not fooled by Satan’s Temptations....

Jeremiah Wept.

                                                                          Jeremiah Wept. Why Did Jeremiah Weep? You hope for light, but He (God) will turn it to utter darkness and change it to deep gloom.  “But if you will not listen”, my soul will “weep” in secret for your pride; my eyes will “weep” bitterly and run down with tears, because the LORD’s flock has been taken captive (destroyed).  (Jeremiah 13:16&17) Jeremiah Wept, due to “Deep Sorrow” For Jerusalem. Jeremiah Saw “The Price of Living Ungodly”, the People “Had to Pay”. Jeremiah wept due to “deep sorrow” over the “impending destruction” of Jerusalem, “the stubborn disobedience” and “rampant idolatry” of the Jewish people, and the “intense personal persecution he faced”. His grief was driven by the  “Foresight of ...

The Lying Spirit.

                                                                       The Lying Spirit. Liars Listen To Lies, Truthful People Don’t! Then the Lord said, “who will go entice Ahab to go and die at Ramoth-gilead?  Various suggestions were made, until one angel approached the Lord and said, “I’ll Do It!”  How, the Lord asked?  And he replied, I will go as a “Lying Spirit” in the mouths of “All These Prophets”.  And the Lord said, “That Will Do It; You Will Succeed. Go Ahead”.  Don’t You See?  The Lord has put a Lying Spirit in the mouths of all these prophets, but the fact of the matter is that “The Lord Has Decreed Disaster Upon You”.  1 Kings 22:21-23) An evil doer “listen to wicked lips”; A liar “listen to Lies”.  (Proverbs 17:4) If a ruler listens to lies, all h...
