THE TRUE PICTURE IS IN THE SCRIPTURE
TEXT: James 1:25
But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. (KJV)
Do not permit men to describe life to you, because everyone would tell you what life is from their personal experiences and perspectives. For instance, some people would tell you marriage is evil because of their bitter experiences; others may tell you that pulpit ministry or personal business is deadly because of their personal experiences.
Do not allow anyone to describe life to you, do not receive everything people say to you about life and situation as correct because no human being can be hundred percent correct, the only source of correct information about your life and situation is the word of God. The true picture is in the scripture. I Corinthians 13:9 says “For we know in part, and we prophesy in part”. Every man, woman, Pastor, Prophet, Evangelist, Daddy and Mummy knows in part, so, they can only talk in part. The word of God is what has the final and balance say about your life and situation.
Some would tell you that life is hard, women are evil, men are terrible, all these are from man’s perspective, the true picture is in the scripture. Our text today says But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.(KJV). You cannot miss it when you take your picture from the scripture. For instance, if you are born again, the word of God says you are not cursed but blessed (Galatians 3:13), you are not alone, Jesus is with you (Matthew 28:20), you are not weak but you are strong (Joel 3:10), there is no failure in your future (Jeremiah 29:11), nothing is wrong with you (Colossians 2:10). No man, no Pastor, or Prophet can tell you everything about your life, it’s only God that can do and He has put your right picture in the scripture, all you need to do is to open it, read it, claim it, act it and it shall be yours in Jesus name.
CONFESSION
Father, I want to thank you because I am what your word says I am. What I have is a great future not a failed future. There is no failure in my future in Jesus name.
