Proverbs 6:14,19

Sowing discord.

Stirring up hatred within families.

Biological or spiritual.

YHWH hates this.

He HATES this!

To cause division within family/community is evil. Our unity is so very important as Jesus prayed earnestly in John 17.

Always be looking to unite, repair, forgive.

Talk about others in love.

It’s one thing to seek wise counsel when you have issue with someone, it is quite another to “vent” about them or simply “blow off steam” as they say. This does no good. The enemy uses this extremely effectively. Be careful, be watchful of this in yourself and others. Work hard to see others the way God sees them. Ask Jesus what He wants you to see in a person before judging them or submitting to frustration with them. It is worth it to practice this.

Mark 8:11-13

The Pharisees came to Jesus and began to ask him questions. Hoping to trap him, they asked Jesus for a miracle from God. Jesus sighed deeply and said, “Why do you people ask for a miracle as a sign? I tell you the truth, no sign will be given to you.” Then Jesus left the Pharisees and went in the boat to the other side of the lake.

Do you want a magic show or do you want Me?

Is My presence enough, or do you just crave what I can do for you?
