How have you been since reading the first part of this right up?Have you been able to show your face outside?Are taking out time to sort out yourself for better productivity in your walk with God?Really,how you react to issues tell if you have a future in sight or not.A man with a future when faced with certain truths goes back to the drawing board of his life o make appropraite changes. Well, lets see what we have to do to get the best of our Daddy.
7)A vile person must be contemned in your eyes: not in your eyes not in your heart.A vile person is a wicked person, a castaway, disdained or despised person.So, when you meet this kind of person at work,home, business place, you may have to "look down" on them in your eyes for whatever they have done with the bid to correct.What God is saying is do not honor a wicked man because there is something you are expecting from him.A Christian chooses to bow to a wicked, disdained person because you do not want him to back out of the help he promised,a student chooses to compromise just for a few more marks.Yes, this is about compromise.You choose to look the other way rather than tell and confront the truth when and where necessary.Do nat applaud a wicked man just to gain favor.A Pastor or Leader is practising witchcraft,manipulate people,tell lies,do all amnner of wickedness and still try to manipulate people just to keep them under his control.That is a wicked man.Please do not play that game,it is too costly and dangerous.
8)You must honor them that fear God: many dishonor the truth just to please the wicked man.7 and 8 go together.Do not allow the wicked to go unpurnished for his evil and the man that fears God get purnished because he is not rich nor is in the place of authority.Everyday,we see men use their positions of authority to suppress others and try to get away with their wickedness while the mn who fears God suffers for who he is.Please draw the line properly and put everyone where he belongs.Dealing with people in authority is sensitive and you need to learn how to go about issues concerning them.But do not swallow a lie and things that contradicts scriptures just because it came from authority.
9)Keep your words:be it a vow.Let your yes be yes and your no be no.If you ever make a promise to God or any man do everything you can to redeem it.It is not all about money.Keep your words,please.(Jud.11:30 -31;34-35)Jephthah kept his word.Many promise people something and change the very next minute because of circumstances.This is not acceptable.Let your word be your bond.This will help you never to play with your words because they are invaluable.Do not be unstable.God wants to be able to trust you in all things including money matters.Many Christian do not like to be striaght with issues of money.They are expecting 20million, they promise God a very special gift of maybe a 2million,when the time to pay comes,they begin to explain or decide to buy Him a gift instead.That is not what you "said".Learn to do what you say even to people.
10)Do not give your money for usury:Simply put,do not lend money with interest.That is the original meaning in greek.The dictionary defines usury as exhorbitant interest.This is a style of extorting money from people.But God's mind is that you should collect interest on moneys loaned to people especially in the household of faith (Church).Pro.28:8;Exo.22:25;Lev.25:36-37.
11)Do not reward against the innocent:Exo.23:6;Deut.16:19;Rom.11:26. Do not join forces with anyone through bribe and condemn the innocent.Never allow yourself be put in a place where you allow the innocent to suffer for what he did not do.As much as it lies in your power to free the innocent do so.Do not collect bribe of any kind and allow the innocent suffer.
These 11 points can be a real serious battle and struggle for many,i know.All you need to do is to begin somewhere.Do a thorough,critical check on yourself.To thy own self be true.Look at yourself critically though the eyes(mirror) of the word and evaluate your level.For some you may be able to score yourself 60%,for some it maybe just 5% but whatever and wherever you are on any of these,start from there and begin to work.God wants to bless you,whne you find out what qualifies you,you get qualified then demand the blessings.
If you want to study law in the University,Open a particular line of Business,build an estate,have children,enjoy marriage,own a university,college.You seek to find out the required qualifications, then begin to work at meeting the requirements.If you set a deadline for yourself,then extra work is needed.You would not want to miss out on any opportunity especially those tied to a particular time schedule not controlled by you.
What we are talking about here is controlled by you basically.Discipline yourself and get to work.God is more eager to bless you than you can ever know.
Christianity is real and in Him we live, move and have our being. The best of you is just unfolding.We must make our God proud.
