Meekness [2]

Meekness continued:  Zephaniah 2:3— All of God’s children should be seeking meekness!

  Col.2:12-23— Being saved from our sin by the finished work of Jesus on the cross we are new creatures with new desires and are set apart to become like Jesus and one of those characteristics is meekness.

  James 3:13; Titus 3:2–

Titus 3:2 (King James Version)

 2To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men.

  “But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness (1 Timothy 6:11).”

Galatians 6:1 (King James Version)

Galatians 6

1Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.  When restoring the erring do so in meekness!   1 Peter 3:4 tells us that meekness is precious in the sight of God!

Servants for Christ should: [ a] 1 Tim.6:1– follow after meekness. [b] 2 Tim.2:24,25– instruct opposers in meekness. [c]  Titus 3:1,2– urge on their people with meekness.

Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.

MATTHEW 5:5

AUGUST MOON!

There is an August moon rising, Rising in the sky, There is an August moon rising, It’s beams lighten the sky, O, what a beautiful sight, As the August moon is rising, Illuminating.the night. There is an August moon rising, Peaking through the pines, Wishing all a beautiful night, There is an August moon rising, Showing God’s wonderful creation. There is an August moon rising, Thank you Heavenly Father, Thank you for your Heavenly light. There is an eternal light shining, Jesus’s love shines on us tonight! ~Winston Staples

BIBLE VERSES FOR TODAY!

Colossians 3:8-17 King James Version 8  But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. 9  Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; 10  And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: 11  Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all. 12  Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; 13  Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. 14  And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. 15  And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful. 16  Let the...

PURE WORDS!

First is Proverbs 3;   My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments: 2  For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee. 3  Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart: 4  So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man. 5  Trust in the  Lord  with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6  In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Proverbs 22:  A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold. 2  The rich and poor meet together: the  Lord  is the maker of them all. 3  A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished....
