NOTE TO SELF. To learn to shut my mouth... I mean that takes divineintervention. I talk when I am happy. I talk when I am sad. I talk when I amangry. I talk. My incessant talking is annoying, sure. I can see that.That’s a fair statement. When I am angry or sad - it is just not okay to speak.Ever. I know that by now. Yet… talk I do. The only purpose of any communication from me at this pointis just to build others up. If I cannot do that – again… shut my mouth. We have to ask ourselves this question: “Is it helpful, kindand honest?” Helpful based on what? Does it nourish another soul. Kind, meaningwhat? Would Jesus say it, and use that tone? How to possibly be honest… Not allpeople are safe to be honest with. Avoid the pitfall, don’t lie, and justrevert back to kind. One of my grands made the most profound statement a coupleof months ago. He said, “You don’t have to say everything that you think.” Puregenius.

In the Bible, rebuke means to strongly criticizeor correct someone's behavior with the ultimate goal of bringing them torepentance, spiritual growth, and a restored relationship with God. Ratherthan just expressing anger, a biblical rebuke is an act of discipline meant tostop harmful choices and promote righteousness. The goal is to correct and restore, not to shame or teardown. Believers are instructed to ensure their own motives are pure (not rootedin pride or hypocrisy) before correcting others, ideally addressing the issuewith gentleness and respect. Between Believers: The Bible commands followers to hold oneanother accountable. Matthew 18:15 outlines a step-by-step process ofaddressing a brother or sister’s sin privately to win them back. Of Leaders andElders: In 1 Timothy 5:20, the Apostle Paul instructs that church leaders whopersist in sin are to be rebuked publicly so that the congregation respects thegravity of disobedience. Against Satan: Jude 1:9 recounts Michael the archangelsaying to Satan, "The Lord rebuke you!" In the modern church, thisphrase is often used as a prayer of spiritual intercession to appeal to God'sauthority over temptation or spiritual opposition. ...and God corrected me and I realized it eight dayslater... #proverbs #viral #Trending #fyp #ministry

Proverbs 8:13 The more a person fears and respects God, the more he or shewill hate evil. Love for God and love for sin cannot coexist. Harboring secret sins means that you are tolerating evil within yourself. Make a clean break with sin and commit yourself completely to God. #proverbs #viral #Trending #fyp #ministry
