"I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know Him better." Ephesians 1:17 (NIV)

All things belong to the Lord. Those who remember this will remain
humble at all times. It is not by our own minds or hands that we have
accumulated our possessions and achievements. It is only by the
grace of God. He will lift us up if we are actively aware of Who is in
control.
Read Isaiah 66:2
"'Has not my hand made all these things, and so they came into being?'
declares the Lord. 'This is the one I esteem; he who is humble and contrite in spirit, and trembles at my word.'" (NIV)
"'For all those things hath mine hand made and all those things have been,' saith the LORD: 'but to this man will I look even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit and trembleth at my word.'" (KJV)

True faithfulness knows no degree or intensity of dishonesty.
There is never a gray area when it comes to being faithful. We
are faithful in all things, small and large, or we are frauds.
Read Luke 16:10
"Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted
with very much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will
also be dishonest with much." (NIV)
"He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much:
and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much." (KJV)

Because living in this world is difficult, hurtful, and wearisome, it
is easy for us to become lax, complacent, or weak in our Christian
walk. Rather than focusing on how bad things are and questioning
God, it will be to our advantage to keep ourselves in God's hands,
trusting Him. Perseverance will insure that we receive the rewards
God has for us.
Read Hebrews 10:35,36
"So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded.
You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God,
you will receive what he has promised." (NIV)
"Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence
of reward. For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the
will of God, ye might receive the promise." (KJV)

Are you holding on to resentment, anger, or bitterness toward others? Do you realize that you are not only capable, but likely guilty of doing the very thing that hurt you? If you choose to hold on to your resentment and anger, you are but a hypocrite throwing stones. If you forgive with patience and mercy, you are living as Christ lived. You will receive mercy just as you give it.
Read Colossians 3:13
"Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you." (NIV)
"Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye." (KJV)

Did you ever wonder why the tongue is small and rests hidden inside the mouth? If its size and placement on our body were in proportion to its capability it would be the first, if not the only thing others would see. It is incredibly powerful. It brings out the thoughts and intents of the heart. It can encourage, yet it can destroy. Thank the Lord He has given us the ability and the choice to control it.
Read James 3:5
"Likewise the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark." (NIV)
"Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things.
Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!" (KJV)

If we allow ourselves to be guided by our own wisdom, we will find
ourselves falling short, missing the mark, headed down the wrong
street. If we trust in the Lord's wisdom, even when we don't understand
it, we will find strength and renewal.
Read Proverbs 3:7
"Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil. This will
bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones." (NIV)
"Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil. I
t shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones." (KJV)

In this world, the only thing that is constant is change. Flowers fade,
seasons change, people come and go, and our health takes unpredictable
turns. Technology is changing so fast, very few can keep up. However,
there is One who has never changed, who is not changing, and who will
never change. You can stake your life on it.
Read Hebrews 13:8
"Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever." (NIV)
"Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever." (KJV)
