Relationships today are seriously dysfunctional! The “Truth”
cannot be altered. An egotistic mind, like the fallen angel (Satan) was
deceived too! Jesus is “Truth” and the “Light”! So anything that you receive
outside of the Word (Truth) is false teachings; or Satan’s way of deceiving you
into believing his way is better!
A gentle answer turns away wrath, But a harsh word stirs up
anger. (Proverbs 15:1 NASB)
If you are angry, don’t sin by nursing your
grudge. Don’t let the sun go down with you still angry—get over it quickly; 27 for when you are angry, you give a mighty foothold to the
devil. (Ephesians 4: 26-27 TLB)
We can’t sleep around, constantly abuse each other, or
destroy the lives of those around us. It only leads to more hurt and
destruction. The thief comes to steal,
kill, and destroy! (John 10:10) How much more deterioration will it take
for America to realize, “A change has to come”! Will we fall like Sodom and
Gomorrah? (Genesis 19) It’s not too late
to repent and become a Nation of believers, and don’t take too long ~ Judgment
day is near!
1-2 Then
the Lord spoke to Jonah again: “Go to that great city, Nineveh,” he said, “and
warn them of their doom, as I told you to before!”
3 So
Jonah obeyed and went to Nineveh. Now Nineveh was a very large city with many
villages around it—so large that it would take three days to walk through it.
4-5 But the
very first day when Jonah entered the city and began to preach, the people
repented. Jonah shouted to the crowds that gathered around him, “Forty days
from now Nineveh will be destroyed!” And they believed him and declared a fast;
from the king on down, everyone put on sackcloth—the rough, coarse garments
worn at times of mourning.
6 For
when the king of Nineveh heard what Jonah was saying, he stepped down from his
throne, laid aside his royal robes, put on sackcloth, and sat in ashes. 7 And the king and his
nobles sent this message throughout the city: “Let no one, not even the animals,
eat anything at all, nor even drink any water. 8 Everyone must wear
sackcloth and cry mightily to God, and let everyone turn from his evil ways,
from his violence and robbing. 9 Who can
tell? Perhaps even yet God will decide to let us live and will hold back his
fierce anger from destroying us.”
10 And
when God saw that they had put a stop to their evil ways, he abandoned his plan
to destroy them and didn’t carry it through. (Jonah 3 TLB)
