He Knows Everything

He Knows Everything

Word ~ Thought ~ Deed


Colossians 3:17 “ And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him”

By Your Words ..

   I heard this analogy a long time ago. That helps to paint a clear picture. . . Have you ever been to an old Library, one that has a card-ex, which was used to help find the book or old news papers, you want, these were used pre-computer. Well, in just imagine every day, every .. Thought – Word & Deed .. all been written down on a card. Imagine how many there would be? Now having done that times it by a week, a month, a life time. How big a room warehouse to house them all, is there one big enough? Or, for the younger generation, how many ‘terabytes’ would be needed to hold all this information?

Matthew 12:36/7 “ But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. 37 For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”

   For instance … Whilst screaming at the car who cut you up .. Or .. that person who walks very slow and you get passed and in a rush .. Or .. When someone over charges you .. Or .. The Other person got promoted over you .. Or .. When you burn your mouth on hot food .. Or When your partner does not do what you want them too.  

He Knows Everything #   

   Every Word you have uttered, these were just some instances, you might have said a regretful word. I know of a wealthy Businessman, he put some of his success down to pausing 10-15 seconds before ever replying. He did this so as his response’s were al2ways measured, so as never to give a ‘knee-jerk’ response because he did so much he became renowned for it in his business world.  

   Next time your in a heated debate, try this out and see how it helps to over come those ‘knee-jerk’ response. It could save a friendship or even a marriage, or Job.

There is no perfect day


   Don’t think that trying control what we say is a new fangled thing, as it is not. Hear what the Psalmist had to say, when he was lost and needed help .. 
Psalms 119:107 “I am afflicted very much; Revive me, O Lord, according to Your word”
… living by His word, following Gods direction, having God in all we say will profit you very much. Keeping your Words cool, will give you ultimate control in your life. We all aspire to be better, to do better in our lives, so don’t delay, as it is never too late to make a change in your life, young or old.

By Your Thoughts ..  

Psamls 64:6  “They devise iniquities: “We have perfected a shrewd scheme.” Both the inward thought and the heart of man are deep”

Some days Words & Deeds are good but Thoughts

catch you out

 
Proverbs 23:7 “For as he thinks in his heart, so is he” This is so clear. The one thing the Lord is not, and that is grey. How perfect, no room for don’t. We know how we have fallen short of the Glory of God"
 
   We find ourselves out and an attractive lady/guy walks past, it may only be for 1 second, if only I was the same age. There goes another card added to the already burgeoning amount, so next time think of saying this ..’thank you for saving me’ and ‘Jesus I don’t won’t to think this way, please take these thoughts away’. And thank Him for giving you a perfect partner/Wife/Husband.

Today was not perfect but I’m saved


2 Timothy 1:12 “Nevertheless I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him until that Day”
 
   OK, so you have some unpure thoughts, it’s what you do next that matters. You need to bind them up, in Jesus name, ask to be washed in Jesus blood, purified - washed – cleansed of bad thoughts as there is power in the name of Jesus.
 
   Christ our Lord will bless us, even though when we search deep within, we find ourselves wanting, and yet, He freely ~ happily ~willingly to give us His tender mercies day after day after day. Every Morning we should have a shout of praise & thanks giving upon our lips, whilst making Breakfast ~ Coffee/Tea ~ getting dressed ~ whilst taking the Children to school ~ shopping ~ whilst on our way to work even at work (you don’t have to take/sing aloud to Him). Are you getting the message yet?? Worship Him in ‘ALL’ things. Then you next thought will be to worship Him alone.
 
Psalms100:4 “Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name”
Philippians 4:6 “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God”


By Your Deeds ..
Philippians 4:5 “Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand
 
   It has sadly been proven, all too often that Christians, make the worst bosses/Managers/Owners of company’s. I feel they must think, that they have behave this way so that are not seen as weak ~ push-overs ~ soft. When they are really only shooting their testimony in the foot.
 
   Each day before leaving home, S T O P look yourself in the mirror, and ask God to help keep ‘your’ testimony in tact. By checking yourself before reacting to any given situation, will make sure your Deeds shine Gods light out from within you.
 
   Cause & Consequences:- Your late for work, your rushing, speeding down the road, you cut someone up, not giving them a second thought and carrying on your way/day. What you don’t realise is you have set someone up for a day of misery. It could result in them chasing you down, now resulting them being late for work, it’s now know as road rage.

   You must take care, be mindful of your actions at ‘ALL’ times. Deeds are not helping old ladies across the road, deeds are making a cupa (hot drink- Tea Coffee Hot Chocolate) when not asked for Deeds are those only seen by God.
 
Colossians 3:15 “And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful”
1 Thessalonians 5:17/19 “pray without ceasing, 18 in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 19 Do not quench the Spirit”
 
   As Christians the Wold holds us under a powerful micro-scope. Some have argued why us and not them? You see, they think they know many of our values, some from the movie of our Lord. So hence the think they know about being a Christian. What they don’t get is that we have ‘ALL’ fallen short of the glory of God.
 
Words ~ Thoughts ~ Deeds
 
   Wee need to take His light within us, so as when these ropes come to trip us up, then we can just step over, without falling foul. For those ‘unsaved’ we have to show Gods tender mercies, His lovingkindnesses, show better it is having God in your life, how more contented with life you become.
 
   I know not ‘all’ secular music is about .. Sex ~ Drugs ~ Guns ~ Suicide ~ Killing .. in contrast our Christian song are up lifting ~ Worshipping ~ Giving Thanks to god for saving us. Watch our videos of us openly worshipping our Lord and Saviour. Our faces filled with joy unspeakable, not contorted with vile rage.
 
   I claim not to be perfect, as only Jesus was/is, so don’t panic when you do trip up, because everyone will. It is what you do next, as in your heart God will know your intentions. I will leave you with my last thought for you to think on ….

 
# Thanks is the front door key like no-other for God #
 
Prayer
May you Lord See ~ Know & feel how we have taken your word into our hearts, and nurturing it to grow, help us map our lives with righteousness, in Jesus Christ our Lord’s name, Amen
