Have a nice day! 🙂

But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
– Matthew 12:36-37

Jesus didn’t waste words, and He didn’t overlook ours either. In Matthew 12:36–37, He reminds us that every word we speak carries weight. Not because God is waiting to punish us, but because our words reveal our hearts. We forget sometimes that heaven listens even when no one else does. The quiet comments, the frustrated sighs, the whispered prayers, the encouragement we give, the truth we speak about, all of it matters. Our words can lift someone or crush them. They can heal or harm. They can point to God or pull away from Him. Jesus says that one day, our words will stand as witnesses, not to shame us, but to show what kind of heart we carried. The beautiful part is this: When God changes the heart, He changes the voice. When He fills us with grace, grace comes out. When He fills us with truth, truth comes out. When He fills us with love, love comes out. Today, let your words be seeds of life. Let them reflect the God who speaks peace, hope, and healing.

God hears every word.

God even hears apologies and forgiveness.

God values truth spoken in love.

God sees the heart behind the voice.

God calls us to speak life, not harm.

Have a nice day! 🙂

Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace. For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith. For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.
– Galatians 5:4-6

“Grace Over Performance“

Paul isn’t scolding, he’s warning. Anytime we start trying to earn what God has already given, grace loses its effect in our daily lives. Not because God withdraws it, but because we stop receiving it. The moment we lean on our own performance, we step out of the freedom Christ purchased and slip back into the pressure of proving ourselves. But the Spirit leads us differently. He teaches us to wait with hope, not strive with fear. He reminds us that righteousness isn’t achieved, it’s received. And in Jesus, the old categories that once defined people, circumcised or uncircumcised, insider or outsider, no longer carry weight. What matters now is faith, and real faith always expresses itself through love. Grace frees us to stop performing and start loving. It frees us to stop striving and start trusting. It frees us to live from acceptance, not for it.

Father God, keep me anchored in Your grace. Guard my heart from slipping back into performance and pressure. Teach me to walk by the Spirit, to trust Your righteousness, and to let my faith be seen through love. Love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the honor and glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

Matthew 5:14 — “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.”

Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honor preferring one another.
– Romans 12:9-10

God doesn’t ask us to be neutral. He calls us to hate evil, not people, not struggles, but the things that destroy, deceive, and divide. And He calls us to cling to what is good, truth, mercy, justice, kindness, and love. In a world full of noise and confusion, we are invited to walk differently: With compassion, not competition. With brotherly and sisterly love, not rivalry. With honor, not ego Let our hearts be soft toward one another and fierce against injustice. Let our hands be quick to help and slow to harm. Let our lives reflect the goodness we cling to.

Father God, I thank You and praise You that You teach me to hate what is evil without becoming bitter. Help me cling to what is good with courage and joy. Make me kind, compassionate, and devoted to others in love. Let my life honor You and bless those around me in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

Have a nice day! 🙂

Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth. Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
– Psalms 2:10-12

This is a strong and timely scripture. Psalm 2 always feels like God clearing His throat to the whole world, a reminder that power, authority, and leadership only stand firm when they bow to Him. These verses remind every leader, kings, judges, and all who hold influence, that true wisdom begins with honoring the Lord. Strength without surrender becomes dangerous. Authority without humility becomes unstable. But those who trust in Him find blessing, protection, and direction. “Kiss the Son” is an invitation to relationship, not fear, a call to honor Jesus, walk in reverence, and rejoice with a trembling that comes from awe, not terror. The promise still stands: Blessed are all who put their trust in Him. Not some. Not a few. All.

Father God, thank You and praise You for watching over me today. Guide my steps, calm my heart, and keep me close to You. Bless the people I meet, the words I speak, and the work I do. Let Your peace cover my mind and Your love lead my way. Love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the honor and glory in Jesus precious Name Amen.
