"Are you really showing true love by only loving those who love you back? Even those who don't know God will do that. Or compassion when you do something good to those who do good to you? Even people who don't know God do that. Or lend money to only those who can pay you back, what credit is that to your character? Even those who don't know God do that. "But love your enemies and continue to treat them well. If you lent money and never get it back, don't despair, it is not lost. You will receive a rich reward and you will be known as true children of the Most High God, having His same nature." For your Father is famous for His Kindness to heal, even the thankless and cruel. Show mercy and compassion for others, just as your heavenly Father overflows with mercy and compassion for all." (Luke 6:32-36) This is true Kindness In Action!

We live daily in a world of more cruelty than compassion, more hate than love, more divisions than unity and it continues in every facet of human life. If we as Christians, have been made and shaped in His image and have this new nature, we must begin to operate in this newness of our lives. Today I challenge you to let go of your ego, yes there are and will be people who hurt and offend you, yet we have another example of pay back and that  is "Kindness In Action" this is the fruit of your life, you are choice fruit. The scripture says in Luke 6:43 that you will never find fruit hanging on a bad, unhealthy tree. And rotten fruit doesn't hang on a good, healthy tree. Every tree will  be revealed by the quality of fruit that it produces. People are known in this same way. Out of the virtue stored in their hearts, good and upright people will produce good fruit." Jesus said I am the vine and that we are the branches, as we live in union with Him as our source, fruitfulness will stream from within us...."Whenever our lives bear abundant fruit, we demonstrate that we are His disciples. (John 15) Remember the Kingdom of God is not talk but action, the demonstration of the power of God. Let's starting living and operating and demonstrating that power through "Kindness In Action"!

UN-DO!

S.E.E.D. For Today: Scripture: "Undo The Heavy Burdens" ( Isaiah 58:6 ) Example: There was a great deal of injustice in the land and with the rich exploiting the poor and the rulers using their authority only to make themselves richer. It was a conflict between truth and lies, just like in our land today. The people of God were no different in operating under the same system as this. But God called them out and wanted them to understand that their fasting was in vain if they did not undo the heavy burden they placed on others while still outwardly devoting themselves to religion or as they thought to God. Exercise: Let's invite the Holy Spirit to solve problems and aid us in lifting loads and overcome barriers that keep us and our loved ones from walking joyfully in the Lord. In self-denying love and care for others, let's undo any heavy burden or untie any yoke that we may have placed upon friends, family, associates or even employees. Devotion: Lord toda...

Bursting Out Of It!

S.E.E.D. For Today:  Scripture: "Is this not the the fast which I have chosen: Loosen the bonds of wickedness." ( Isaiah 58:6 ) Explanation: There should be the right motive when we fast. The people of God in Isaiah observed but there was no change in them. When fasting we do not want to look at it as a religious ritual, but a means to transformation. The fruit of repentance ought to be evident in relationship with one another and our neighbor. If we fast and persist in arrogance, stubbornness, fighting and strife then we are only doing this out of routine. Exercise: Prayer is important to experience the grace and power of God when fasting. Without the consistency of prayer we will not see breakthrough. God is challenging us to do the fast He has chosen, the first means of business is releasing or loosing the bonds of wickedness. Whatever besets itself and entangles you again under the same slave system of missing the mark with God has to let you go. I challenge you ...

MOTIVATE

S.E.E.D. For Today_ Motivate S-cripture Hebrews 10:24 "Let Us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works" NLT The author's exhortation of faith, hope and love elaborates on the greatest of this triad which is love. Love is the greatest way to motivate because it is communal that it reaches out to others. The writer incites the believer that with great enthusiasm we motivate one another to love and to do good works. Example Provoke, encourage, stimulate, push, sharpen, provide the stimulus needed to go forth or not give up. Exercise Today challenge yourself to think of ways to motivate one another, pick up the phone call someone and motivate them to continue in the Lord, motivate someone to forgive and move forward, love and not hate, to be confident in God's Word for their lives. Motivate one another not to let sin deceive them, think of ways to provide the stimulus needed for the individuals you consider to reach. Devotion Lord ...
