(I'm trying to get good at painting water......pry got a ways to go still, but it's still a nice painting)
Arrows - they can be either good or bad..............which kind of arrows are you shooting?.........................Someone shot a arrow at me yesterday, a arrow I deem a "good arrow" to nudge me closer to jesus. I've decided there are two kinds of arrows out there, some are bad, some are good, bible mentions how it's good to have.......Psalm 127:4-5 "As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth. Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate." You don't have to have lots of kids to have a quiver of arrows, I think we all could have a great deal of arrows whole quivers in our hands plenty of ammo - the good kind aka the word of god : )
Bad arrows exist to................Isaiah 54:17 "No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord." (bad arrows also I think is gossiping, "evil speakings" verse 31 here but I like this whole section so much : )...............Ephesians 4:30-32 "And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you."
good arrow activity.............
be ye kind one to another
tenderhearted
forgiving one another
even as god for christ's sake hath forgiven you
exhorting one another Hebrews 3:13 "But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin."
We need to exhort one another! Be active! Shoot some exhortation good arrows out there!
We wage a war not against flesh and blood but against pricipalities of darkness etc. we always need to be armed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ephesians 6:13-15 "Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;"
Isaiah 2:4 "And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords intoplowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more." Thank god for Isaiah 2:4...........................I feel like I'm in the hunger games somedays for reals! DON'T SHOOT I LOVES EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have a great week earth!
