So also if anyone will walk in wisdom to have dominion in the midst of his enemy, he must lay a proper foundation of this wisdom. One of the components of the foundation is friendliness with God. Your friendly attitude with God determines how much you will be able to exploit his strength for victory.   All of us in the world know how much we have to pay in prices to keep friendship.

EMPTY PROMISES

EMPTY PROMISES        

Matthew 5:23-37
Devotional Verse:- “But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God's throne” (Vs. 34).

     Many people make promises but lack the ability to fulfill them. Some promises had better not be put to heart because the maker might fail to take the responsibility of fulfilling them. Making promises without fulfilling them should not be the lifestyle of any citizen of the kingdom of God (Eccl 5:5).


     In today’s Scripture, Jesus teaches us to stop making empty promises; insisting that there is no need to swear any oath as a child of God (Deuteronomy 23:22). The Bible says that we must let our ‘yes be yes’ and our ‘no be no’ (Matthew 5:37). Jesus also said that making empty promises is the practice of the evil one which is ungodly.
 
    Whenever we are faced with legal issues that demand swearing with the Bible, God expects us to say what we mean and mean what we say. Don’t promise what you can’t do because it will put you in bond age (Proverbs 22:26-27). You are not living to please anyone but God (1 Thessalonians 2:4). Always be sincere with yourself. It is only by doing this that you will find peace and integrity. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, help me not to just swear but to always say the truth 
 
“MAKING EMPTY PROMISES IS AN UNGODLY ACT”.
