Who said it?
When we speak or hear stuff that other people input into our lives in regards to advice or how to live, we gotta question where that came from. Some things are stated to us that just aren't what God said. And it's what He says that matters. We should never be out of line with the Bible when we speak. Otherwise it's old wives fables or a lie. Small example: supposedly if you open an umbrella inside a house or building, you'll receive bad luck. WRONG! My King is a sure God and the One whom blessings as well as righteous judgement flows from. 1 Timothy 4:7 says to do away with old wives fables. Bigger example: having money is a determinant or sign of being highly blessed and favored. WRONG! God is our provider, Jehovah Jirah - not money. When Jesus fed the thousands (Luke 9:10-17), He and the disciples had money on them that wasn't even enough to get food for all the people - kind of like not having enough money for bills or to feed your family. But Jesus knew where provision came from. He blessed the bread and the fish, and the thousands were made full along with bountiful baskets of left-overs. If God blesses me with a free car, do I need money to buy a car?Money isn't the need. God is our need. We need God. And to go along with a bigger example: some have spoken that there are others ways to the Father, other ways to enter into the Kingdom of God or into Heaven. NAW! WRONG AGAIN! Jesus is the only way to the Father (John 14:6). We gotta make sure what we speak matches the Word we claim to live by. I think we may visit this discussion again.... (Lyrical Truth)
