TEXT: LEVITICUS 19:14-22
KEY VERSE: “Thou shalt not
curse the deaf, nor put a stumbling block before the blind, but shalt fear thy
God: I am the LORD” (Leviticus 19:14).
If we let the Bible rule our
thoughts and personal conduct, we will have the right attitude toward
everybody. It helps us to act the way Christians should in all our
relationships with others.
In the passage of Scriptures
for today, we see God’s demand on his people for discretion and righteousness
in their relationship with all men. True believers are the people of God. We
are to be mindful of the safety of those that cannot help themselves. The
disabled, the disadvantaged, the defenseless and minors are not to be taken
advantage of. We are to fear the Lord. Believers in position of authority are
to be different from the world. They are to dispense justice without fear,
compromise or regard to persons, for such behaviours are an abomination in the
sight of God.
Every true believer is expected
to be a soul winner and never a waster. To this end, we are to warn sinners
daily of the doom and the consequences of sin by effectively presenting the
gospel to them. We should not permit sin by not preaching to them, otherwise,
we ourselves become guilty of sin and
liable to judgment (Ezekiel 3:18). The believer is not a slanderer. He allows
the Spirit’s control over his passions and emotions, and he takes care not to
offend in word or in deed.
Some of the greatest proofs of
a true relationship with Christ is the possession of God’s love in the heart
towards others and the fact that we keep His commandments. The genuineness of
our profession is not measured by the high-sounding words of the testimony we
give, but by the fruits of obedience which show forth in our lives. Strive to
be a fruitful, shinning Christian.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Don’t make
your life offensive; make it winsome for Christ.
