Word of Hope for Today with
Bro. Rolly Custodio
Don’t Misrepresent Christ in Your Life
Eventually
lies are exposed. The truth will always surface. ‘He who covers his sins will
not prosper’ (Proverbs 28:13 NKJV).
Anyone who does business with you wants to know the truth – the whole truth.
Jesus
had the greatest product on earth: salvation. He offered the human race an
opportunity to have a relationship with God. He even promised them a home in
Heaven. But He never painted a distorted picture. After talking about the
advantages of following Him, He spelled out the challenges. ‘You will be hated
by all nations for My name’s sake’ (Matthew 24:9 NKJV). Jesus offered people more than
a pie-in-the-sky philosophy. He believed in preparing people for every possible
situation that could arise.
In an
age when bankers and businessmen twist the truth to enhance the bottom line,
God calls on you to be honest, even to your own hurt. If you represent God, and
if you want to experience His blessing, you must do business His way. An honest
relationship is worth more than a hundred sales. Your integrity will be
remembered longer than your product.
Thomas
Jefferson said, ‘The whole art of government consists in the art of being
honest.’ In the Bible, God’s people were largely an agricultural community. So
God laid it on the line: ‘Do not use dishonest standards when measuring length,
weight or quantity’ (Leviticus 19:35 NIV).
John
Parnell wrote, ‘It matters not what you do, make a nation or a shoe. For he who
does an honest thing, in God’s pure sight is ranked a king.’
Parallel Verses: Num 32:25 – 33:56, Matt 13:10-23, Ps 134, Pro 4:5-13
Today’s Prayer
Heavenly Father thank you for your
Word today. Lord, I come before you with a humble heart. Lord I thank you for the
Word because it is truth and if we walk on this truth our integrity will never
question. Lord empowers me to stand strong in my faith that I may represent to
somebody as your ambassador ready to speak your Word and to show the Truth to
anyone. Lord helps me to share your Word with integrity to show up also in my
action so that others will be blessed of what I for your glory. In Jesus Name,
Amen!
Prayer for Salvation
Lord I admit I am a sinner I repent of
all my sins and I receive you into my heart as my personal Lord and Savior
Amen. If you mean that prayer above from the bottom of your heart you are now
saved. It is God’s Word promise in John 3:16 that if you trust His Son Jesus
you will not die but you will have Eternal Life. Welcome to the family of God.
In order to grow in your faith with God please do these consistently starting
today; 1. Pray always 2. Read your Bible Daily 3. Attend Church Services
Regularly 4. Attend Prayer Meeting, Bible Study, Church Seminars and make God
first place in your life with your talents and finances 5. Lastly, witness
Jesus to others that they may receive Eternal Life also.
