Thought for the day

 

8 Warning Signs of Double-Mindedness:

1. Content of Our Prayers
“This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.” (1 John 5:14 NIV)
2. Self-Centered Motives
“Do nothing out of selfish gain or vain conceit. Rather, in humility, value others over yourselves, not looking to your own self interests, but each of you to the interests of others.” (Philippians 2:3-4 NIV)
3. Our Speech
“Gracious words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones. There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death.” (Proverbs 16:23-24)
4. The Company We Keep (or Don’t Keep)
“For before certain men came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles. But when they arrived, he began to draw back and separate himself from the Gentiles because he was afraid of those who belonged to the i group.” (Galatians 2:12 NIV)
5. Disobedience
“If you love me, keep my commands.” (John 14:15 NIV)
6. We Don’t Do What We Say
“You foolish person, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless?” (James 2:20 NIV)
7. Our Priorities (or Lack of)
“I am the LORD, and there is no other; apart from me there is no God.” (Isaiah 45:5 NIV)
8. Impatience
“Do not be quickly provoked in your spirit, for anger resides in the lap of fools.” (Ecclesiastes 7:9)
