No Compromise

Episode 234

Angus Buchan

Angus encourages us to be a people of no compromise!

Job 2:1-3
"Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the Lord. And the Lord said to Satan, “From where do you come?”
Satan answered the Lord and said, “From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking back and forth on it.”
Then the Lord said to Satan, “Have you considered My servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil? And still he holds fast to his integrity, although you incited Me against him, to destroy him without cause.”
4 So Satan answered the Lord and said, “Skin for skin! Yes, all that a man has he will give for his life. 5 But stretch out Your hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will surely curse You to Your face!”
6 And the Lord said to Satan, “Behold, he is in your hand, but spare his life.”
7 So Satan went out from the presence of the Lord, and struck Job with painful boils from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head. 8 And he took for himself a potsherd with which to scrape himself while he sat in the midst of the ashes.
Then his wife said to him, “Do you still hold fast to your integrity? Curse God and die!”
But he said to her, “You speak as one of the foolish women speaks. Shall we indeed accept good from God, and shall we not accept adversity?” In all this Job did not sin with his lips."

Holy Character

1 Peter 3:3

1 Peter 3:3. God tells us not to let our adornment to be merely outward but to spend more time on our inward appearance than our outward appearance. The beauty that the Lord is speaking about is from the inside, from a person who is selfless, and cares more about others, who has the Lord's peace in their hearts.

Forgiveness

Matthew 18:21–22

We have to forgive others no matter what, so that God can forgive us for our sins, and so that we ourselves can move on with our lives. Some of us even need to forgive God for something we fee that He has done for us. Unforgiveness will eat away at us. Matthew 18:21-22.

Guard your mind

2 Corinthians 10:4–5

2 Corinthians 10:4-5. Our battle in this world is in our minds, not our hearts. When we put on the armour of God, we put on the helmet of Salvation to guard our minds. Let's watch over and be sure to guard our minds and make sure we are speaking life.
