Bible Bits: January 23rd


Bible Reading: Job 15:1-18:21
 
Daily Tidbits:
  • "Your sins are telling your mouth what to say. Your words are based on clever deception."   Job 15:5 The key to restored hope and repaired hearts is confession.
  • Until we get right with God we will have a "less than" life.
  • Stay "real" with God.
  • Don't talk just for the sake of talking; don't sermonize by giving pat answers; don't accuse or criticize; put yourself in the other person's place; and offer help and encouragement.  The best comforters are those who know something about personal suffering.
/Without confession and repentance our:
  • talk becomes and empty and words serve no purpose
  • words become deceiving and manipulative
  • mouth condemns us
Until we come clean with concerning our sin, empty words remain like the wind, chatter serves no purpose and our mouth will eventually drive others away.
 
 
 
Jesus Calling Gem:
 
"It's all right to be human. When your mind wanders while you are praying, don't be surprised or upset.  Simply return your attention to Me."
