       Conscience?

 Biblical passage:

 And for this reason I try to always have a conscience without offense before God and before men.  (Acts 24:16)

 INTRODUCTION

 "Let your conscience be your guide."  This bit of popular knowledge seems to make sense, since our conscience is made to help us discern good from evil.  However, internal radar cannot always be trusted as a guide;  That is the case of non-believers, who do not have the Holy Spirit to tell them the truth and guide them to make wise decisions.  And although we Christians have the Spirit of God dwelling in us, we must be careful not to harbor sin, since this can interfere with the way our morality sensor works.

 A trustworthy conscience is programmed with biblical teaching.  Believers build a firm and sensitive spiritual radar system by applying God's truth to their lives.  They take the resolution to think and act in ways that honor and please the Lord.  Then, when sinful thoughts or alternatives appear on that radar, it will send a clear warning.

 The person with a reliable conscience has the sincere desire to obey God.  It does not conform to what seems to be or look good, but seeks the will of the Lord.  That is, it is not based solely on your conscience, but incorporates all the tools of the Holy Spirit into your daily life: the Bible and prayer.

 Consciousness is not our guide;  It is a tool of the Guide.  The Holy Spirit not only convinces us of sin, but also brings to mind the divine principles, and leads us on the right path.  He uses various instruments to conform to the likeness of Christ

 (Ro 8.29).

 Conclusion & Prayer

 Lord, help me to develop a reliable conscience, to be filled with the teachings of Your Word, and reflected my willingness to follow and obey you.

 Biblical passage:

 If you dedicate yourself to helping the hungry and to satisfy the need for the helpless, then your light will shine in the darkness, and your darkness will be as noonday.  (Isaiah 58:10).

 INTRODUCTION

 God is passionate about helping people who are suffering and in need.  Over the years, as I have come closer to Him and my love for Him has grown, I have become more determined to live each day in a way that will improve the life of another person.  God's passion has become my passion.  Reaching others is not something we should do with our lips out.  It must be a priority to live the Christian life.

 It takes determination and commitment to get to help others, but this is how God wants us to live.  God says that when you really give and serve others, He will use you.  

 If you reach beyond your own situation and bring the love of Christ to others, your peace and joy will increase, making the struggles you face seem to fade away.  And you will experience the amazing satisfaction of making a difference where it counts.

 So consider this: Do you need to rearrange your priorities to make God's passion your passion?  Ask him to show you how you can reach others and bring His light and love to those who need it most.

If you live your life without helping others along the way, thou have lived your life in vain.

 Conclusion:🙏🏽

  Lord, I want Your passion to be my passion.  Show me how to readjust my priorities and reach others the way you want me to do it.
