Scriptures: Proverbs 23, Psalms 73, Ephesians 2, 1 Thessalonians 2,
Notes:
Be able to apply the word to all situations that you handle.
Do things according to God’s word and not according to your own feelings.
Be able to share God’s Word with others.
Know how to ask for help when you need it.
We should be able to relate to other Christians.
Most people aren’t truly believers that are willing to share God.
There are resources to help you with your problems.
Sharing the word with others can help them through their situations.
Talk to other people about the Lord so that they are not lost.
Proverbs 23:17
Sinners live a care free life.
They enjoy everything of the world.
Sometimes Christians may envy them and start to live care free and try the things of the world.
Because you envy them, you begin to justify the things that sinners do.
Psalms 73:1-18
If you don’t have a clean heart you have dirty thoughts about God.
You believe that God is not good.
When your eyes are not clear you lose your prospective and your heart becomes evil.
Sinners are not worried, concerned, caring, or sensitive about God.
Atheists have followers too, and their followers are the ungodly people in the world.
They begin to question God’s existence because of the wickedness and calamity in their hearts.
Stop thinking that sinners are who you should model after.
A believer sees the world very differently than the unbelievers.
Sinners do not have a godly prospective like Christian’s do.
What makes you different from the unbelievers?
There is a curse from God that blinds people from seeing beyond their current situation.
Are you a doubter or a believer?
It is hard to live a life of faith as a doubter.
Doubters are most likely to give up and say that doing the right things is not worth it.
Doing nothing is the same as doing something.
Not talking is doing something and showing your aggression by being mean.
Dying confident and argent is a bad thing.
Ephesians 2:12
Would you want to have no prospective or hope, and be without God in the world?
1 Thessalonians 2:2-3
Do you think people would write this about you? (Refer to Scripture above)
You can be a hard worker and not have faith, patience, or hope.
When we look at the wicked as examples, we lose our purpose. We lose prospective and we mess up our testimonies. Look at believers as your examples instead of the ungodly.
