We Learn How to Love Others By God’s Righteousness and Justice – (Proverbs 16:8)

Daily Bible Study
Righteousness and justice are two of the many attributes of God. And as His children guided and controlled by the Holy Spirit through submission to God. We too are supposed to do what is right and just according to God's word. We as followers of Jesus are not to follow our will, nor our desires, but we are to follow God's will as led by the Holy Spirit. This includes having mercy, compassion and love for those around us. We are to show the same love toward others, which God has shown to us while we were still sinners, at enmity against Him. We do this in order that through our faith, we too can run well, the race set before us, for the sake of Christ Jesus our Lord. One of God's many blessings given to us is the gift of participation. Because of our relationship with God restored by Jesus, we as followers of Christ can participate in the work of God's kingdom.
It's a privilege and an honor for us to tell others of the Good News of salvation through Jesus alone, by faith alone. Moreover, doing this is better than remaining at enmity against God, why? Because our salvation brings with it our adoption into the family of God as His dear children. By which we can now daily experience the love and work of God in our lives. We must understand this and take it to heart, always remembering. Our restored relationship with God, is better for us, and more precious and valuable than having riches in this world without Jesuse. We have to remember the Bible tells us everything in this world is passing away, and the riches of this world are fleeting. And when all the revenues and material possessions are gone, all that will remain with us is Jesus, Heaven and Hell. And as we all face the eternity set before us, all that will matter then and for the rest of eternity is whether or not we had a relationship with Christ Jesus our Lord.
