Not To Diminish God's Word

 

Dear Lord please be with us this day and please may Your Holy Spirit be guiding and protecting us in every thing that we say and do. Thank You for all of the great gifts and the blessings and the protection that You give us and please forgive our sins the same as we forgive the mistakes of others.

Dear Lord please help us learn from the memories that we are allowed to have as we mix and mingle with Your Children in Your Creation while seeking Your Kingdom in the midst of the temptations of this world.

Dear Lord please show us how that a few good things can multiply if they are left alone to grow as we are exposed to the love of Your Word if we can only try to magnify the meaning and not diminish the truth of the meaning as we all must deal with the temptations of hate and greed, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

Ro 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

Ro 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Ro 12:3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

Ro 12:4 For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office:

Ro 12:5 So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.

Ro 12:6 Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;

Ro 12:7 Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;

Ro 12:8 Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.

Ro 12:9 Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.

Ro 12:10 Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;

Ro 12:11 Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;

Ro 12:12 Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;

Ro 12:13 Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality.

Ro 12:14 Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.

Ro 12:15 Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.

Ro 12:16 Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.

Ro 12:17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.

Ro 12:18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.

Ro 12:19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.

Ro 12:20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.

Ro 12:21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
