Good day to you all from Texas and please continue to pray for our ICE agents who are going strong into Minnesota to uncover all the fraud and waste that has been happening for some time now. And i would like to wish my boy Jo James a happy happy birthday . ” Don’t mistake kindness for weakness “, Is the title of our devotion today. Ephesians Chapter 4 and verse 32 says, and be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving one another, Even as God in Christ forgave you. The very next verse in Chapter 5 verse one says, therefore be imitators of God as dear children. We see God in Christ when He came to earth and what we see is that He didn’t use the power He had in a negative way. He used it in a positive way to overcome the Wiles of the devil.
We are strong in Christ which means we have overcome the Wiles of the devil and are able to stand up against the evil of this world and be a light shining to those around us by not giving in. Does this mean that I would not defend my home if a burglar broke in? Of course not! When the rubber meets the road so to speak, a Christian man or woman will stand up and fight but that will be the last thing we would want to do. When the Roman soldiers came to arrest Jesus. Peter took his sword and cut off Malchus’s ear and remember what Jesus did, Jesus put his ear back on and healed him, John 18:10-11 and Luke 22:50-51 and that should be the picture of a child of God that we would want to heal before we would wound. It seems we are living in a time when everyone wants to be a tough guy, but as a child of the most high God I will choose to follow Jesus Matthew 11 28-30. Have a blessed day and always remember that Jesus loves you!
