THE POWER OF CHOICE...

 

The power of choice is mine, and the consequences cannot be shifted to anyone else.

It’s not fair to knowingly make bad choices and blame the consequences others.

God gave us the power to choose good or evil, to obey or disobey.

Nobody’s perfect, but the obedient strive for perfection. The Spirit of God wants for these types of people to serve Him.

Integrity and righteousness, the fear of God and fleeing from sin are virtues that are a part of the character of those who spread the fragrance of the Lord Jesus.

1. Integrity and honesty: The way you react to others. Treating others the way you want to be treated, and wanting others to have what you want for yourself. Matthew 19.19

2. Fear of God: Faithfulness to God. Malachi 3.8

3. Fleeing from evil: Running away from every form of sin or injustice. Job 1.1

What’s the point of doing the Work of God when we have bad character? Bad character is like bad breath to God. It’s unbearable.

If the Work of God means destroying the works of the devil, how can we destroy the works of the devil when we’re living together with him?

It is better to be or to spread the fragrance of the Lord Jesus Christ than to be a maker of perfume.
