Tipping Point

Therefore do not let your good be spoken of as evil; for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men. Therefore let us pursue the things which make for peace and the things by which one may edify another.

- Romans 14:16-19, NKJV

Many Christians are at a tipping point such that while they seek out a "good" endstate, their methodology is far from it; however, it's time for Christians to act, talk, and walk as Christ. The filling of the Holy Spirit necessitates a change and promotes commensurate ensuing actions. So in other words God's Spirit and His Word are the driving factors behind your motivation and not your flesh; specifically because the flesh is carnal by nature and will never cede to the Spirit. It is this same flesh that leads you to make choices that appear to be good, but are neither motivated by love, nor end in God's will. This is why your heart, mind, body, and soul must be continuously on Jesus because only through His example in God's Word and Spirit are you able to walk uprightly...never on your own or by fleshly means. Understand that God's glory is bigger than this "tipping" point! Know that the sufficiency of His grace is enough for you this day to not be overcome by evil, but to be engulfed by His love that you may serve as a light of hope in the midst of darkness. Receive His light and move in His righteousness that His peace, joy, and mercy are evident in everything you do that the world may know the love of Christ - But even if you should suffer for righteousness’ sake, you are blessed. “And do not be afraid of their threats, nor be troubled.” But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear; having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed. For it is better, if it is the will of God, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil (1 Peter 3:14-17, NKJV).

BE BLESSED!
