#idolatry #COVID19

Investigate which persons, cities, people groups, and countries have been hardest hit to date. What do they have in common?

The only way to ride the waves is to flee idolatry. God will not be mocked even by His own Church. Count the costs of idolatry to determine if you and your family can afford to pay.

Revelation 22 lists those who are unable to enter God's city because of dirty robes. Many violate the 5 sins of idolatry, but Exodus 20:4 is either ignored, unknown or blatantly rejected. If you are an object of wrath because of idolatry you cannot escape. COVID19 is not judgement it is correction. God rejects idolatry and calls for repentance Acts 17:22-31 - ignorance of God's word is no excuse.

@Matt songs based on balanced interpretation of scripture transform the landscape and the people who hear them. I long for songs based on the whole counsel of God- songs that inform of our inheritance in Christ.

@Yonasi the Lord be praised, welcome

#Rule5
In building #GoodRelationships I acknowledge that I have limits and do not allow others to push me beyond those coping limits.

I also recognize that I must respect the limits of others.
#RespectingLimits

#Power #Powerless
In building #GoodRelationships I must acknowledge and do what is in my power to do.

I should not focus on what I am powerless to do.

Summary of posts so far:
#GoodRelationships (heirs, emotions, rules, violating rule 1, fences)

#Rule3
In building #GoodRelationships we must separate what we are responsible for and what we are not #responsible for.

We are only responsible for what we can change.

Revelation 6:6-8

@ChristopherJHardwick
Power-capacity to hold, become, have, do e.g. John 1:12
Love-it anchors, knits, binds and builds e.g. Col. 2:2;3:14
Sound mind-self control, self discipline and balance to approach life and godliness in a tempered way so challenges and adversity don't hinder building/edifying e.g. 2 Tim 1:8
Power may edify/tear down 2 Cor. 13:10. Power is made constructive by love. Love comes before self control (not in the addition to our lives 2 Peter 1:6) but is first in terms of usefulness and function.
Without God's power it can't be done. Power with no love as a leash is a runaway horse. Love is to build 1 Cor. 8:1. With no power, love can't show achievement.
Nehemiah knows each construction has hindrances (Satan, people, life, circumstances). The power to build can be challenged by outside beings and forces. Only the self disciplined, sound mind can steadily navigate when ground conditions are unfavorable. Without self control the work is abandoned as outside forces win.

@Olamide and still the message is missed

@Joshua_D_Jones amen

@ByGraceAlone thanks for sharing. It's good to have evidence to back up what you already discerned.

I appreciate the Word the Lord spoke more and more ... by their fruit you will know them.

@tanjaostman @sinbach currently I minister to individuals, and families who are in crisis. A crisis is a prolonged season of unfortunate circumstances that erode one's ability to move forward in life.

@sinbach listening intentionally and weeping with those who weep are first steps to healing.
When victims tell their story to caring listeners they heal remembering the story differently each time. This helps them have a new perspective.

When a listener challenges with questions parts of the story which are not true (clue: look for sentences with the word never or always) the victim is helped to put the experiences in proper perspective.

I like to ask victims where Jesus was when this was happening. Most don't know. Most admit that they did not reach out to Him then for help. They tried to cope on their own. I help them realize clues that indicate the Lord Jesus was there all along pained at what they were facing knowing that He was not invited to help them face it.

As a listener to other people's tragedy I take comfort knowing that God made children resilient-they can recover, allow Christ to heal them and use the memory of tragedy to accomplish good works in the earth.

@Fisherman @Asianking type #ResolvingAnger in search to get post anger is NOT a problem and emotion map

@sinbach All that we need is the Spirit of God and the Word of God. This is what the Church in Acts had, and what we have today - that's why we are advantaged people.
