Share the good news!

“You shall not circulate a false report. Do not put your hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness.”

Exodus 23:1

How often do we circulate a false report? Probably more often than we think! Every news article or online story we see isn’t always true! We need to check before we share, even if it sounds right!

“He who speaks truth declares righteousness, But a false witness, deceit.”

Proverbs 12:17

We are all guilty of sharing or reposting something online or on social media that was false! When we share on social media we need to check to make sure it’s true. Not just repost, because it looks or sounds true! We can always share the truth of Jesus!

“Sing to the LORD, bless His name; Proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day.”

Psalm 96:2

We can never go wrong with sharing about the LORD! Share the good news of salvation. Realize, there is enough fake news out there, so let’s share the good news of Jesus!

Have a blessed day!

Pray for those in authority!

“You shall not revile God, nor curse a ruler of your people.”

Exodus 22:28

This one is hard for people in this day and age! The lack of reverence for the LORD is considered normal and our society has no respect for its leaders! They really are doing what is right in their own eyes.

“In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes.”

Judges 21:25

When we have no fear of God, then society seems to fall into no respect for the rulers set over them by God! We can dislike people who rule over us, but be careful of cursing them! Remember, the LORD put them there!

“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.”

2 Timothy 4:3-4

Today, let’s spend time praying for our leaders, all of them, whether you like them or not; remember, God put them there!

Let’s also pray for believers and our leaders, that they would be biblically sound, teaching all scripture! Be aware of the times we are living in, Jesus warned us, many will walk away and be led astray! The best thing we can do is pray, so have a blessed day praying!
