The Book of James Lsn # 45, 'Watch Your Language'
God is associated with truth and therefore if anyone wants to make a lie more impressive;
mention the fact that God is your witness that you are indeed telling the truth.
In the spiritual life, a mature believer has capacity for freedom, for life in general, for true love,
for deep inner happiness, for spiritual and temporal prosperity, for grace-orientation and then
some!
Success in life requires understanding and that’s why Jesus said: “You shall know the truth and
the truth shall make you free,” a statement that has nothing to do with academic institutions but
everything to do with the Word of God.
For the Christian life, God has designed all suffering for blessing and when someone falls into
divine discipline due to his chronic rebellion, there is no blessing, only cursing but by the grace
of God, cursing can be turned into blessing through the principles involved in rebellion recovery
when it is an extreme case.
Prayer is an expression of our priesthood and when prayer is used to stabilize us in a situation of
pressure, disaster or catastrophe, that prayer is effective; that prayer is powerful beyond our
understanding and that prayer redeems time, even if and especially when our suffering IS NOT
removed!
