Positive Christianity Series Episode # 92

"For the LORD sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the LORD looks on the heart."- 1 Samuel 16: 7

We learn that the worship of GOD Almighty makes us unique and distinct because we choose to worship GOD Almighty above everything. We learn that Abraham trusted in GOD Almighty above everything so much so that he denied resources from the king of Sodom because Abraham trusted in GOD Almighty over the things of the world. We learn that Abraham also was favored in the manner that he was able to rescue Lot when Lot was taken captive. We learn that Abraham rescues Lot and perseveres. We also know that when Abraham and Lot grow in resources and abundance, they do not have envy towards one another and instead acknowledge that their favor was because of the worship of GOD Almighty. This describes the manner that the worship of GOD Almighty makes us unique and distinct. We learn that the midwives including Shiphrah that guarded the babies from the envy of Pharaoh were able to be unique and distinct. 

"But the midwives feared GOD and did not do as the king of Egypt commanded them, but let the male children live."- Exodus 1: 17

"So GOD dealt well with the midwives. And the people multiplied and grew very strong. And because the midwives feared GOD, he gave them families."- Exodus 1: 20-21

We learn that instead of listening to Pharaoh, they decided to safeguard the babies that were born and were favored. We learn that the midwives were able to have families, when in the past, they were unable to. We learn that Moses was distinct and unique because he chose to worship GOD Almighty over staying in Egypt and enjoy the fleeting pleasures of idol worship and sin. We learn that individuals that worship GOD Almighty are distinct and unique. We learn that we can not believe the temporary lies of sin that speak about false "comparisons" when we know that there is uniqueness and distinctness in the worship of GOD Almighty because there are virtues, talents, wisdom, responsibility, dominion, authority, and fidelity that keep on growing in the worship of GOD Almighty. 

"The earth is the LORD's and the fullness thereof, the world and those who dwell therein, for he has founded it upon the seas and established it upon the rivers."- Psalm 24: 1-2

We learn that evil wants to tempt with false "comparisons" so that we do not prioritize and pay attention to the manner that GOD Almighty has blessed us, helped us, and made us different and unique. This speaks about the manner that we can not believe the temporary lies of evil that want us to have ingratitude to GOD Almighty. I can say that even when there is persecution and envy from gangstalking, I am able to persevere in the worship of GOD Almighty. This speaks about being similar to Abraham and Sarah, Lot, the righteous midwives including Shiphrah, Moses, and David who were able to persevere even amidst difficulties in the worship of GOD Almighty. We learn that GOD Almighty does not forsake the righteous and allows us to understand that we can persevere because we choose to worship GOD Almighty above everything with sincerity of heart. We learn that we can not compare ourselves to anyone because we know that we are distinct and unique. We know that Scripture speaks about positive individuals that were different describing Abraham and Sarah who did not feel bitter over the fact that they were unable to have children at an advanced age. We learn that they kept on worshiping GOD Almighty and trusting in GOD Almighty above everything. We learn that instead of paying attention to the discouragements, Abraham and Sarah paid attention to the worship of GOD Almighty and were favored above other individuals. This speaks about the manner that our fidelity to GOD Almighty helps us persevere in a manner that we can not comprehend because there is so much favor. We learn that Abraham and Sarah were able to persevere with gladness of heart and gratitude to GOD Almighty and were able to have a family. We learn that when the world may say negative things because of the worship of GOD Almighty, we choose to persevere with fidelity to GOD Almighty over the revilings and lies. We know that Abraham and Sarah have eternal descendants that are favored because of the worship of GOD Almighty.

"The LORD of hosts, He is the King of glory."- Psalm 24: 10

We learn that the reason that evil attempts to use false "comparisons" is because it does not like that individuals are able to grow in the worship of GOD Almighty. We learn that Abraham and Lot grew so much that they needed to live in different regions because of their favor, blessings, and goodness that they were receiving in the worship of GOD Almighty. We learn that Abraham and Lot did not envy each other trying to see which individual had more resources. They lived in harmony together until they had to live in different places because the region that they were living in could not hold all the resources that they had including cattle. This describes that the worship of GOD Almighty allows us to live in harmony and serenity without needing to have hate and envy. Abraham did not envy Lot, and Lot did not envy Abraham. We learn that they were both favored because they worshiped GOD Almighty. We learn that when Lot was taken by hostile individuals, we learn that GOD Almighty gives favor to Abraham and Abraham defeats the hostile individuals that took Lot and is able to free Lot. We learn that Abraham was righteous and was favored. We learn that when Lot was again hated by the individuals in Sodom and Gomorrah, GOD Almighty saved Lot from the destruction in Sodom and Gomorrah because of Lot's righteousness and because of GOD Almighty remembering Abraham. We learn that we can not allow evil to get us to have negative emotions describing envy and hate. We know that the intention is to lead to other negative emotions describing anger and coveting so that there is lust. We know that we do not need any of those emotions nor vices. We know that GOD Almighty is able to help us persevere acknowledging that we can persevere in righteousness and fidelity to the GOD of gods, GOD Almighty. This is similar to Abraham and Sarah, Lot, and David. This means that we do not need to envy anyone. We can not envy other individuals either in real life or online because the comparisons are false. They are not based on reality. This is because evil attempts to make it seem like the practice of sin is "interesting" or "beneficial" when in reality it is not the truth. We learn that we can not believe the temporary lies of sin that want to get rid of the uniqueness and individuality that we have in the worship of GOD Almighty. There is uniqueness that we develop when we choose to worship GOD Almighty with sincerity of heart. We learn that David is unique in the manner that he has a sincere devotion to GOD Almighty that causes David to be bold and valiant while not being the tallest, strongest, or eldest in the manner that he is able to destroy Goliath even when his own brothers were trying to discourage him and they themselves did not want to fight against Goliath. We learn that even when he is hated and envied, David still has devotion to GOD Almighty knowing that GOD Almighty sustains David. We learn that David grows in virtues amidst the envy of Saul. We learn that David is able to persevere with obedience to GOD Almighty and is able to help us understand the manner that a sincere fidelity to GOD Almighty can help us persevere amidst times, obstacles, and persecution.
