10/03/2016 Where are the keys for living?

Keys to wise living:

The worldly theory of success that centers on personal power and the amassing of financial riches is a highly deceptive trap.

The wise person defines success in the light of God’s plan for his life.

Living in a manner that honors God and relies on His promises, brings success.

Habakkuk 2:9 Amplified Bible, Classic Edition (AMPC)

“Woe to him who obtains wicked gain for his house, [who thinks by so doing] to set his nest on high that he may be preserved from calamity and delivered from the power of evil!”

Know the success by the world’s measure is a vain pursuit. Build your house… your life and vocation…on the Rock of God’s Word.

The Lord's Ministries Purpose:

Act as a conduit and watchman, presenter of The Lord's Truths and Messages of Love, Grace, and Mercy from His Holy Word (Bible); witnessing to His truths; and monitoring for opportunities and the need for change in the World.

Deuteronomy 30:15-20

The Choice between Life and Death:

“I set before you today life and prosperity, death and destruction. For I command you today to love the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him, and to keep his commands, decrees and laws; then you will live and increase, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land you are entering to possess.

But if your heart turns away and you are not obedient, and if you are drawn away to bow down to other gods and worship them, I declare to you this day that you will certainly be destroyed. You will not live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to enter and possess.

This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live and that you may love the Lord your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. For the Lord is your life, and he will give you many years in the land...”

Hebrews 4:10-14

After accepting Christ; Remember that The Lord Knows and Sees Everything:

“For anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his.

Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will perish by following their example of disobedience.

Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.

For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.

Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has ascended into heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess.”

Romans 12:1-3

Therefore Completely Dedicate and Renew Yourself to The Lord:

“Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship.

Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.

For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you.

Matthew 22:36-40

The Lord's First and Second Commandments:

"Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself. All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.
