16 THINGS WE MUST BELIEVE, ACCEPT AND DO AT ALL TIMES AS BELIEVERS

16 THINGS WE MUST BELIEVE, ACCEPT AND DO AT ALL TIMES AS BELIEVERS

1.            Happiness is like a kiss. In order to get any good out of it,

you have to give it to someone else. Whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.

2.            The failure to stand for what is morally right is the prelude to be a victim of what is criminally wrong. Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong.

3.            Love the unlovable and give hope to the hopeless, friendship to the friendless, and encouragement to the discouraged. A man who has friends must himself be friendly.

4.            Be pleasant to the grouch, courteous to the rude, and generous to the needy because you know the long-term benefits of receiving. Defend the poor and fatherless; do justice to the afflicted and needy.

5.            Recognize, confess, develop, and use your GOD-given physical, mental, and spiritual abilities to the glory of GOD and for the benefit of mankind. God has given each of us the ability to do certain things well.

6.            Love is not the basis for marriage; marriage is the basis for love. Being loved is the second best thing in the world; loving someone is the best. Love does not hold grudges and will hardly notice when others does it wrong.

7.            The ladder of success works like any other ladder. Very few have climbed it with their hands in their pockets. Hard work means prosperity; only a fool idles away his time.

8.            Productivity alone does not guarantee security. You must combine productivity with a consistent positive attitude and a team effort, whether you’re looking for a job or looking to keep the one you have. For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

9.            It is far more important to be the right person than to marry the right kind of person. Rejoice with the wife of your youth.

10.          Sitting still and wishing makes no person great. The GOOD LORD sends the fishing, but you must dig the bait. But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.

11.          For good or ill, your conversation is your advertisement. Every time you open your mouth you let men look into your heart. Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.

12.          As the earth revolves round the sun, so should our lives revolve round the SON.

13.          When you choose to be pleasant and positive in the way you treat others, you have also chosen, in most cases, how you are going to be treated by others. Do for others what you want them to do for you.

14.          As long as you keep a person down, some part of you has to be down to hold him down, so it means you cannot soar as you otherwise might. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the LORD forgave you.

15.          There has never been an undisciplined person who was a champion, regardless of the field of endeavor. Like a city whose walls are broken down, is a man who lacks self-control.

16.          Watch your thoughts, they become words. Watch your words, they become actions. Watch your actions, they become habits. Watch your habits, they become character. Watch your character, it becomes your destiny. Fix your thought on what is true, good and right. Think about things that are pure and lovely, and dwell on the fine, good things in others. Think about all you can praise GOD for and be glad about.
