Words

To Leaders

John 3:16 for Leaders

Hello, my anointed sister!

(Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor and Teacher)

And the Body of Christ:

It amazes me how many of us still continue to say each and every thing that comes to mind and then justify it by quoting the word of God.

As if, words of strife towards a brother or sister are normal and acceptable by God.

How do we step out of the love walk?

How do we step out of fellowship with love? We, (you and me), as anointed as we are, step out of fellowship with love through the words of our mouth.

Please listen with an open heart.

We, who represent God Almighty, are not to use harmful words in talking, ever!

We are to preach the gospel (Good News). We are to use “only” helpful words, the kind that build up and provide what is needed [not what is there] or [what is seen], so that what we say will do good to those who hear us, and give glory to God.

And we ought not to make the Holy Ghost sad; for the Spirit is God’s mark (seal) of ownership on us, a guarantee… Let us get rid of…”all” bitterness, passion, and anger.

No more shouting or insults.

No more hateful feelings of any sort.

Instead, let us be kind and tender-hearted to one another, and forgive one another, as God has forgiven us in Christ. Since we are God’s dear children we all must try to be like Him.

Our life must be controlled, ruled, governed and regulated by love, just as Christ loved us and gave his life for us, as a sweet-smelling offering and sacrifice that pleases God.

Some change must occur when the same words we use to say, before salvation, are still coming from our mouths. Some change must take place when we can speak words to satan, in the name of Jesus, and use the very same words and tone of voice to speak to each other.

My anointed sister and minister of the gospel: God began to deal with my heart concerning speaking the word only; speaking the truth in love; speaking words that minister grace to the hearer and watching what I say.

The Holy Ghost led me to a familiar scripture, of which, we all know by heart: John 3:16. Only, this time I found out that John 3:16 says more than what I had been reading or taught.

Like a “neon” sign flashing before my face, there it was:

Father God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not die and perish, but have eternal life.

Father God did not send his Son into the world to be its Judge or to condemn the world, but to be Savior. If we, who say we love God, and walk in love, behave, act and talk like God…..then we have no right to condemn another person with our words. There is no scripture to support it.

If there is a problem, we are to “call those things that be not, as though they were.” Never…are we to sow words of strife:

Fuss, fight, argue, dispute, slander, judge, throw a temper tantrum, And assume a brother or sister is of the devil or off-track… simply, by what is in our hearts, based on what we see. The just shall live by faith, not by sight.

Let us daily examine ourselves based on whatGod has already spoken and written in his word.  

Are you up to the challenge? Make the adjustments and walk in love. Remember, the gospel of Jesus is always…Good News!

Always! Always! …full of love!
