HOLY AND BELOVED: LET US SANCTIFY OUR MINDS, SOULS, AND SPIRITS; AND ENGULF OURSELVES WITH THE PRESENCE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT THAT WE MAY BE SATURATED WITH THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. THAT WE DON’T BECOME TOOLS TO SATAN, BY HUNTING DOWN OURSELVES THROUGH THE CARNAL SPIRIT OF ENVY AND JEALOUSY. GALATIANS, 5:-26 “LET US NOT DESIROUS OF VAIN-GLORY, PROVOKING ONE ANOTHER, ENVYING ONE ANOTHER.” WE SHOUDN’T BE HAPPY AND JOYFUL WHEN SEEING OUR OWN BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST GOING THROUGH HARDSHIP. THAT TYPE OF SPIRIT MUST NOT BE ALLOWED IN OUR MIDST AS FOLLOWERS OF CHRIST. THE BIBLE SAYS, “WE THEN THAT ARE STRONG OUGHT TO BEAR THE WEAKNESS OF THE WEAK, AND NOT TO PLEASE OURSELVES.” (ROMANS, 15:-1) GALATIANS, 6:-2 “BEAR ONE ANOTHER’S BURDENS, AND SO FULFILLED THE LAW. OF CHRIST.” WE ARE TO COMPLETELY AND NOT PARTIALLY FOLLOW THE TEACHINGS OF JESUS CHRIST IF WE ARE TRULY HIS FOLLOWERS. DEUTERONOMY, 15:-11 “FOR THERE WILL NEVER CEASE TO BE POOR IN THE LAND; THEREFORE I COMMAND YOU, “YOU SHALL OPEN WIDE YOUR HAND TO YOUR BROTHER, TO THE NEEDY AND TO THE POOR IN YOUR LAND.” IN CONCLUSION: INSTEAD OF LORDING IT OVER THE POOR AND LESS-PRIVILEGED, EITHER BELIEVERS OR NON-BELIEVERS, LET US BE KIND TO THEM AND GIVE TO CHARITY. BECAUSE BY CHARITY, WE ARE MADE TO BE CHILDREN OF GOD.
