Follow Him

I hear the Lord saying, “I will stay close to you, instructing and guiding you along the pathway for your life. I will advise you along the way and lead you forth with my eyes as your guide. So don’t make it difficult; don’t be stubborn when I take you where you’ve not been before. Don’t make me tug you and pull you along. Just come with me!” — Psalm 32:8-9 (TPT) In Luke 10:41 (NASB), Jesus said, “ Martha, Martha, you are worried and distracted by many things …” Don’t let distractions and the cares of this world, hinder you from following Jesus, our Lord and Savior.

Avoid all perverse talk; stay away from corrupt speech. — Proverbs 4:24 (NLT) I believe any speech that does not line up with the Word of God is perverse.

Philippians 2:14 (NKJV) instructs us to do all things without complaining and disputing, When we grumble and complain it indicates doubt in our hearts about the goodness of our God. Words kill, words give life; they’re either poison or fruit—you choose. (Proverbs 18:21 MSG) Jesus said, “ What truly contaminates a person is not what he puts into his mouth but what comes out of his mouth. That’s what makes people defiled. ” (Matthew 15:11  TPT) So let us choose to speak words of life. Why whine and worry about what God is not doing, when we can worship and give thanks for all He has done and is doing?
