Open Book

Gracious Father, through the ministry of your Holy Spirit help my life to be an open book, before you and the world. That others my read and observe your love and compassion through my life. Amen


Romans 2:12-16 (NIV)
All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law. For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God's sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous. (Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves, even though they do not have the law, since they show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts now accusing, now even defending them.) This will take place on the day when God will judge men's secrets through Jesus Christ, as my gospel declares.

Trust in the Lord

The Word of God is powerfully accurate!

As I observe the destructiveness displayed in the lives of people today, it seems to be a tightening spiral of a world almost ready to implode.

Psalms 36:2 (NIV)
For in his own eyes he flatters himself too much to detect or hate his sin.

The remedy is expressed!

Psalms 37:3-7 (NIV)
Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this: He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noonday sun. Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; do not fret when men succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes.

Prophets

Jeremiah 23:18 (NIV)
But which of them has stood in the council of the LORD to see or to hear his word? Who has listened and heard his word?

Jeremiah 23:22 (NIV)
But if they had stood in my council, they would have proclaimed my words to my people and would have turned them from their evil ways and from their evil deeds.



It is time for the Prophets to be accountable to God.
