Comfort His people

Episode 1879

Isaiah 40:1

Isaiah 40:1. Jesus wants us to comfort those who are hurting. To comfort people we can't just quote scriptures to them and preach to them, we need to give them time, spend time with them because their hearts are broken. They are morning a lost one. Love them and weep with them.

No excuses

Matthew 7:16

Holiness is the end product of obedience. We will face the Lord one day, it is important that the Lord will know us on that day. We will be known by our fruits, by our lifestyle, not merely by what we say. If we love God, then we will obey His commandments, His will.

Honour our elders

Exodus 20:12

Exodus 20:12. God commands us to honour our parents. This is the first commandment in the Bible that comes with a promise. Respect them, ask God to give you a love for them and be patient with them.

Deny yourself

Matthew 16:24, Romans 1:17, John 15:13

Matthew 16:24. The cost for following Jesus is self denial. It is hard to do this. Romans 1:17. It's by faith that we put our flesh to death. If our faith has cost nothing, then it is worth nothing. When we choose righteousness, it causes us to become unpopular with the world. John 15:13.
