Greetings sister saints!
A good day of His many mercies is here! We have a Saviour and His Word and precious promises! And He is providing us food and clothing and so much more!
Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.Acts 14:17
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.Matthew 5:44-45
He is perfect and may we seek to always walk in His ways. They are good and ways of peace!
By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the LORD men depart from evil. When a man's ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.Proverbs 16:6-7
It's always good to refresh in the ways we are to have as women too. I was pondering on sobriety and shamefacedness.
In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;...Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.1 Timothy 2:9,15
We are to be in control of our actions at all times and not let the flesh or even substances control us.
That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,Titus 2:4
A lot of scripture on it really...
Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;Titus 2:12Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;1 Peter 1:13But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.1 Peter 4:7Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:1 Peter 5:8
Temperance is a fruit of the Spirit also.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.Galatians 5:22-23
All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.1 Corinthians 6:12
But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.1 Corinthians 9:27
And shamefaced reminds me of meekness and humility as well.
But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.1 Peter 3:4
Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.1 Peter 5:5
And that 1 Timothy scripture also mentions not adorning our bodies externally with what we put on but instead with good works and to have shamefacedness and sobriety. It is good to have so much guidance as to what pleases Him as we sure don't want to follow our flesh.
We need a lot of wisdom in navigating this life too. It begins with fearing God and much falls into place when we do and when we love Him above all.
I hope your day is a fruitful and good one sisters. Hold fast in the truth! Love, mercy, and peace unto you.
