Keep It Simple

I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Tuesday morning, the 17th of January, 2023, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

“For your obedience has become known to all. Therefore I am glad on your behalf; but I want you to be wise in what is good, and simple concerning evil. And the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly.”
Romans 16:19

We need to be wise in what is good these days, there are so many counterfeit things going on. We need to be very simple when it comes to being concerned about evil. God has promised you and me that He will crush satan shortly. In other words, keep it simple. Stay pure and innocent. God, Himself, will deal with the devil. Don’t be gullible regarding sweet talking. Stay alert at all times. The Lord Jesus Christ, Himself, shall deal with evil, ungodliness and the things of evil in this world. But rather enjoy your time with the Lord. Don’t allow satan to rob us with his filthy lies and accusations.

You say, quite correctly, “But it's not fair.” No, it is not fair. We are living in a very fallen world. You are quite right, but do you know something? It's not over yet. Do your part and let Jesus do His part. What is our part? Well, Micah 6:8 puts it so beautifully. He says we must do justly, we must love mercy and we must walk humbly with our God. So, do not allow the devil to rob your joy today. Do you remember that old song that we always sing? I would like you to sing it with me if you can.

And I have decided to follow Jesus
I have decided to follow Jesus
I have decided to follow Jesus
Oh no turning back, praise the Lord, no turning back. 
And the Cross before me 
And the world behind me
And the Cross before me
And the world behind me
Oh, the Cross before me
And the world behind me,
Oh, no turning back, praise the Lord, no turning back.

Let's follow the Cross and we won’t put a foot wrong.

Jesus bless you and have a wonderful Tuesday,
Goodbye.
