Are You Righteous or Self-Righteous When it Comes to Mistakes?

“For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.”
                                   Proverbs 24:16 (KJV)
 



 


Hi friends,

     How are you?  Today’s Faith Blog by DUO Inspirations is on a topic with which we can all relate - - making mistakes.  Being human, we all make mistakes.  However, in Proverbs 24:16, we see that there is a difference in a way that our mistakes effect us based upon whether we are just or wicked.

     Before we talk about Proverbs 24:16 directly, let’s talk about mistakes.  We know that we all make mistakes.  Our mistakes affect us in various ways.  Often times, the affect depends on the size of the mistake, the consequences, and how we view mistakes.  As usual, we might find that attitude has quite a bit with how mistakes affect us.

     This is where attitude comes in.  Are we righteous or are we self-righteous?  There is a big difference in the two.  Once we recognize this, then we can start understanding Proverbs 24:16 in a better light.

     Righteous people are those who are believers and try to live a godly life.  They try to do things with a heavenly view and according to God’s Word.  Does that mean that they don’t make mistakes?  No, not by a long shot, because everyone makes mistakes, even St. Paul who God used to do so much for the early church and to build the kingdom of God.  For example, we might remember the words of Paul in Romans 7:15 (KJV), “For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.”  Like Paul, the righteous people can recognize and admit their mistakes.  They don’t try to hide them.

     Self-righteous people are the opposite.  They either think that they don’t make mistakes or they can hide their mistakes.  They might not be able to notice their mistakes or don’t want to admit their mistakes to themselves or others.

     Now, let’s look at this through the words in Proverbs 24:16.  The first part of the verse (KJV) says, “For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again”.  Yes, even righteous God fearing people make mistakes and fall.  Making mistakes and falling is part of the life of a human for both righteous and self-righteous people.  And, Proverbs 24:16 shows us that we don’t just make one mistake in life.  We make many.  (No, I don’t think that seven is meant to be an absolute literal number.) 

     The encouragement of Proverbs 24:16 is the part where the righteous will “riseth up again” after their mistakes.  Praise God!  This is good news.  I don’t know about you, but to me, it is a relief that my mistakes don’t have to define me.  I am so glad that I can recover from my mistakes.

     Sadly, this isn’t true for everyone.  Not everyone who makes mistakes will recover.  In the second part of Proverbs 24:16 (KJV) it says, “but the wicked shall fall into mischief”.  Why the difference?  It might not seem fair.  Isn’t everyone treated equally?

     We are all God’s creations and all have free will to follow His will or not.  Yet, not all of us do.  This is where the difference comes in.

     As I said before, those who are righteous recognize their mistakes and admit them.  When one can recognize and admit their mistakes, they can also repent and ask for forgiveness.  God can then forgive them and the mistakes are wiped away.  They are once again made clean.  This is why the righteous can rise again.  They repent and are made clean again through Jesus.

     Those who are self-righteous or wicked don’t repent.  They don’t see that they did anything wrong.  They don’t ask for forgiveness.  So, instead of changing their ways and getting back on the right track, they continue doing wrong.  They move farther and farther away from God.

     It is during times of meditating on God’s Word and pondering their meaning like this as well as self-reflecting on our thoughts, beliefs, attitudes, and actions, we can see whether God’s Word is rewarding us or convicting us. 
 
Heavenly Father,
     Thank you for your Holy Word.  Thank you for your love and guidance.  Help us to have a righteous mind and heart.  Help us to recognize, admit, and repent our mistakes.  Help us to ask for forgiveness with a humble and contrite heart.  I ask you this through your Son, Jesus.  Amen.

Psalms 15 Series by DUO Inspirations - Post 2

“He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh truth in his heart.”
                                Psalms 15:2 (KJV)
 





 
Hi friends,
     How are you?  Last week we pondered King David’s questions in Psalms 15:1 (KJV) which are, “Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle?  Who shall dwell in thy holy hill?”  If you haven’t read the post yet, you can read it here.  Think about those questions for a moment.  What would your answer be to his questions?
 
     This week, we ponder the words in Psalms 15.2, where King David starts to answer his own questions. So, the first part of King David’s answer to his questions in verse 1 says, “He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh truth in his heart.” (Psalms 15:2 KJV)  Let’s think about these words and let them really sink into our soul.

     There are three parts or phrases in Psalms 15:2.  I think the last one is easiest to address, so I will address it first.  If we look at it, it says, “…and speaketh the truth in his heart.”  One might think that means that King David is talking about someone who never lies to anyone and always speaks the truth.  I think that is only partially correct.  I think the words “in his heart”, makes the meaning a bit deeper.

     Sometimes, we think we are telling others the truth, only to find out that we have been lying to ourselves.  I think sometimes we bury the truth.  Therefor, when we tell others something, we really feel that we are telling them the truth.  Yet, it isn’t the case.  It is just what we have been telling ourselves for so long that we know think it is the truth. 

     Or, maybe we only tell a half-truth.  We only tell have of the story.  We don’t lie about what we say, but we might withhold a small piece of information.  We tell ourselves that it won’t matter.  However, even if the other person never knows and it doesn’t make a difference to the other person at all, it still matters, because it matters to God.

     It also matters to us, as Christians, because we are always seeking and finding God.  That also means that we are constantly seeking and finding truth, because God is truth. 

     Sometimes “speaking truth in our heart” might mean to really reflect upon our beliefs, our words, and our actions and honestly telling ourselves and  God how we are doing as well as assessing our strengths and weaknesses honestly.  This can be difficult.  Like I mentioned before, this difficulty could be from burying part of the truth for some reason.  It could be from memory lapse, especially if we don’t reflect upon our actions regularly.  It could also be from lack of understanding or discernment, which is another good reason constantly pray and read God’s Word, so God will give us the understanding and discernment we need. 

     I also believe that we can look at “speaketh the truth in his heart” a different way.  So many times, we get in a rut or speak lies to ourselves, which sabotages our lives.  We may go with the crowd or listen to common sentiment about what can and can’t be done.  However, if we encourage ourselves with God’s Word, I believe that is also a way of “speaking the truth in his heart”.

     Yet, Psalms 15:2 isn’t just speaking the truth.  It isn’t just talking the talk, so to speak.  It is about walking the walk as well.  We see that we are called to live in truth as well as speak it in reading Psalms 15:2.

     Now, let’s look at the other parts of Psalms 15:2.  I have tried to research it, but I am uncertain of the distinction between “walketh uprightly” and “worketh righteousness”.  King David may have had two different meanings in mind as he wrote this verse or maybe he just wrote two phrases with similar meanings to emphasize the importance of living a righteous life.  I don’t know.  (If you have comments, I would enjoy reading them.)
 
     Maybe one phrase might have to do with being truthful, being honest, and having integrity in public life and one phrase might have to do with being truthful, being honest, and having integrity in personal life.  To me, it seems that this verse is reminding us that it isn’t just what we do in public that matters, but what we do behind closed doors matter as well.
 
     We are ALWAYS called to be righteous and do the will of God, doing right according to His will for us.  We are called to not only speak the truth to ourselves and to others, but to live in truth with honesty and integrity as well. 
 
Heavenly Father,
     Thank you for your Word.  Thank you for giving us people through whom we can learn your Word and your will for us.  Thank you for showing us the way to you, through Jesus and through your Word.  Help us to walk in integrity, speak truth to ourselves and to others, and to do everything according to your will for us.  I ask you this through your Son, Jesus.  Amen.

The Beatitudes Series by DUO Inspirations - Part 8

2/21/2022

“Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”
                             Matthew 5:10 (KJV)

 
Hi friends,

     How are you today?  I hope you have been enjoying The Beatitudes Series by DUO Inspirations.  I look at the Beatitudes as words of encouragement and love spoken by Jesus himself. 

     There is some disagreement as to the number of beatitudes.  Some people believe that there are eight beatitudes and some feel that there are nine beatitudes.  There are also some who believe that the Beatitudes end at Matthew 5:10 and others who believe that the Beatitudes end with Matthew 5:12. 

     This may cause some confusion in your mind.  However, before it does, remember the words of Paul in 1 Corinthians 14:33 (KJV), “For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.”  Instead of feeling confused, pray for understanding. Focus on the message of Jesus, not the terminology of people.

     So, let’s look at Matthew 5:10.  The first part of the verse says, “Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake…”.  Persecution can take many forms.  It can come in many forms such as in gossip, chiding, outcast, ridicule, put downs, harassment, discrimination, abuse, neglect, or death.

     Everyone has probably experienced persecution in one form or another at some point in his or her life.  I have experienced a number of these forms of persecution.  You probably have as well.

     So, if you are persecuted, is it always for righteousness’ sake?  No.  I wouldn’t say so.  People are gossiped against, chided, discriminated against, abused, and put to death for bad ways as well.  For example, just as in the Bible, criminals of today get put to death as well as followers of Jesus. 

     Jesus wouldn’t have specified “for righteousness’ sake” if people were only persecuted “for righteousness’ sake”.  People are persecuted for things doing bad things as well, such as following worldly ways, evilness, and criminal behavior.   

     As with the other beatitudes, the encouragement comes in the second part of the verse, “for theirs will be the kingdom of heaven”.  I find it interesting that this beatitude has the same encouragement as the first beatitude and the others are different.  What about you? 

     For those of you who have read “The Beatitudes Series – Part 1”, you may remember that I wasn’t sure about the meaning of “for theirs will be the kingdom of heaven”.  I guess I am still not completely sure.  However, with more studying and more prayer, I believe that I do have a better understanding. 

    As Christians who follow Jesus and do God’s will, we are called “brothers” or “sisters” to Jesus (such as in Matthew 12:50).  Matthew 12:50 (KJV) says, “For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.”  We are also called co-heirs (or joint-heirs) with Christ (as in Romans 8:17).  Romans 8:17 (KJV) says, “And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.”  Therefore, since the kingdom of heaven is God’s and Jesus will reign, we will be a part of it, instead of being cast out and left in Satan’s kingdom.  We will be close to God and part of His family, not part of Satan’s group. 

     So, it sounds to me that Jesus is saying in Matthew 5:10, that we are not to be discouraged if we are mistreated for the sake of standing up for what is right and following God’s will for us, because no matter how badly we are treated by the world, we will be loved and rewarded with being part of His family now and forever.  This sounds like wonderful consolation and encouragement for withstanding some persecution in the spec of lifespan we may have on earth.  What do you think?
 
Heavenly Father,
     Thank you for the encouragement found in all the beatitudes and in Matthew 5:10 specifically.  Thank you for giving us something to remember and to look forward to when we are persecuted for doing your will.  Help us to persevere during all hardship we receive as a result of doing your will and not to give in to the evil that surrounds us during these difficult times.  Help us to keep our eyes on you and be encouraged with our reward.  I ask you this through your Son, Jesus.  Amen.

The Beatitudes Series by DUO Inspirations - Part 4

“Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.”
                               Matthew 5:6 (KJV)

 
Hi friends,
     How are you today?  Have you ever been hungry or thirsty?  I think we all have felt the feelings to some extent at one time or another.  Thankfully, (or unthankfully) many of us have never been in dire straits enough to know the feelings of a desperate hunger or thirst.
     In the past few posts, I have been pondering the meaning and words of the Beatitudes.  Like the others, this beatitude speaks to us about how God wants us to live.  More than that, it speaks to us about how to be happy and fulfill God’s will for us.
     Let’s look at the first part of Matthew 5:6.  It says, “Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness.”  The words hunger and thirst are more than just a “normal” desire for food or drink.  It is more of a craving.  Do you get cravings? 
     I get cravings and sadly, they aren’t always for good things.  Like, I get cravings for too many sweets or salty foods.  They sure are yummy, but not necessarily good for me.  I get good cravings too.  I want to do God’s will and to live the life God has for me.  I want to help others.  I want to encourage others.  I want to share my faith and encourage others in their faith.  I want to teach and learn.  These things I crave as well.  Think of what crave means.  When I crave a certain food, I can eat this or that to try to get my mind off it.  I can feel “full” with eating these other things, but somehow, I still don’t feel satisfied.  It isn’t until I either give into the desire or stand up to it (through prayer and the desire to do the right thing under no uncertain terms), that the craving feeling goes away.
     Sometimes, we feel like we aren’t accomplishing or getting the desires of our heart.  We want this or that and they seem like good things, but we still aren’t getting them.  In those times, we have to ask ourselves if they are “normal” wants or if they are hungers and thirsts.  Like when we are truly starving for food, we will often do just about anything to get food.  We will work at jobs we wouldn’t necessarily like or consider under normal circumstances.  We will eat food that we don’t necessarily care for just so that we can have something in our stomachs.  (I am not talking about stealing or anything illegal, but humbling ourselves to do or accept less than we normally would think to do.)
     So, what does being on the brink of starvation have to do with hungering and thirsting for righteousness?  Just like when are stomachs are empty and we hunger for food or thirst for drink, when we hunger and thirst for righteousness we our hearts and minds are empty except for the desire to do God’s will for us.  Any worldly desires, manipulations, or feelings we may have had in the past are out of our mind and out of our heart.  We don’t have any self-serving thoughts or desires and no alternative motives at all.  Instead, we only desire what is right.  We desire God’s will for us and for the kingdom of God.
     Now, we can look at the second part of Matthew 5:6, “…for they shall be filled.”  If we empty ourselves from the worldly cares and only seek God’s will for us, then we will feel satisfied.  It won’t be just a worldly feeling of being satisfied, but a heavenly feeling as well.  Just as all the other Beatitudes lead to not just a “regular” feeling of happiness, but a “heavenly” feeling as well.  It goes past emotional thoughts and feelings, but spiritual as well.  A spiritual “fullness” isn’t just a feeling of being “full”, but also of being truly satisfied as well.
 
Heavenly Father,
     Thank you for the Beatitudes.  Thank you for showing us the way to true happiness, which is a closeness with you in your kingdom.  Help us to hunger and thirst for You and your ways.  Help us to pray for others to hunger and thirst for you so that your kingdom grows and others may find a closeness to You as well.  I ask you this through your Son, Jesus.  Amen.

*Have I ever hungered or thirsted?  What did it feel like? 
*Have I ever craved anything? 
*Have I ever felt “full” without feeling satisfied?
*Have I ever felt like I was hoping for good things, but they never seemed to
 come?  Did I look to see if my desires were pure or if I had any alternative
 motives?
*How can I better live the words in Matthew 5:6?
