Judgment Belongs to GOD

Make a Righteous Judgment By Applying the Word of GOD
God made each of us a little different; he made some of us male
and others female; he made tall and short people; he made some
of us dark haired and others blonde and being different is not
wrong; it is only when we begin to judge our differences
(Outside the Word of GOD) that wrongness occurs.
We find in Matthew chapter 1:7 these most reproofing
words….Judge not, that ye be not judged. ☞These words and
many others have been forgotten by so many; we have forgotten
that it is not our authority to pass judgment on someone; it is
not up to me how you conduct your life; it is not any of my
business how you do things; that right belongs to the one that
created you.
Since this right does not belong to us we must ask the
question…Why do we judge one another and why do we look at each
other with conviction that we are right and everyone else is
wrong?
The Answer
In each of us resides a measure of pride; pride for who we are;
where we live; where we go to church and even pride concerning
our place in life and of our activities; we look at our many
accomplished deeds and think because we got there our way
everyone else must go that way to.
So often we look down on others because they are not the same as
we are; we have thoughts of how superior we are to others and
how blessed we must be; we trample over other people’s feelings
as if they are nothing; we claim the right of greatness by how
much we own or how much we do; we grave prominence over others
and walk as if we are giants and if anyone doesn’t follow us
then they are just ants to be trodden on.
The Bible teaches us in Proverbs 16:18 that Pride goeth before
destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. ☞ How
true those words are for each and every time pride manifests
itself, we fall; soon after we see how foolish it is to think of
ourselves greater than what we are; soon after we realize that
everyone is in the same boat, sailing the same sea, heading for
the same destination and that is either Heaven or Eternal
Torture and the latter is the destination of pride for pride is
not a Godly thing, it is an evil and a most perverse thing that
destroys everything in its path; a haughty spirit leads no where
but to disappointment and delusion for when I think of myself
better than you then I am deceiving myself for the Word of God
teaches me not to vaunt myself above others, that I use God's
Word instead of my own foolishness.
In conclusion I ask you to remember me in prayer that pride
never indulges itself in my life and as time goes forth I will
remember you as well. God Bless my wonderful friends and May
each of us continue to realize that the way to victory and to
Heaven is through Jesus Christ and not through or our own ways.
