Don’t just read the Bible: Put it into action.

Read your Bible every day if you can.

Become a disciple and disciple maker. Preach Jesus.

Open doors for people.

Let people in front of you in line.

Help the poor and sick out of their suffering.

Always be out to do good and avoid sin.


Proverbs 12:18 Thoughtless words can wound as deeply as any sword, but wisely spoken words can heal.

Ever hear the saying, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me?” This is patently false. I’d rather someone come punch me than relentlessly bully me for years at school. It seems like words can hurt more than weapons. Kind words however, they can heal. They can heal your mental. And since God exists, words have more power than most know. You can do anything through prayer. You can literally heal someone of any ailment if God wills it. So be encouraging all, and praying for lots of healings in hospitals, people who can’t get to hospitals, and people at home recovering from the hospital.

Proverbs 16:24 Kind words are like honey—sweet to the taste and good for your health.


Follow Jesus and Change yourself

Collossians 3:5 Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry. 6 Because of these, the wrath of God is coming. 7 You used to walk in these ways, in the life you once lived. 8 But now you must also rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips. 9 Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices 10 and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator. 11 Here there is no Gentile or Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave or free, but Christ is all, and is in all.

God doesn’t care what race you are. He wants you to clean up your act and follow Jesus. Stop the old sins, even foul language. Try and do everything good and loving. Try and follow Jesus with all you got. Try and help people out. Stop trying to live for just yourself. Get by, then help others. Don’t even aspire to ever stop helping people when you can in this life. Pass on retirement if you can to help more poor people. Jesus told us we’d always have the poor, but not that they’d be always starving to death. We can make a difference if we want to serve Jesus with all of ourselves. If we have faith that we’ll live forever, we can more easily give up our grasp on this life to help others more.
