Proverbs 23:17 ... Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the Lord all the day long.
Exhortation: (Joan Boney ... apostle/prophet)
On TV we see famous persons. Some are rich in money and goods. Some are rich in praise of men for that which they have achieved.
When I see such men of accomplishments, I always wonder what will happen after they die.
Mt. 16:26 ... For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
And Jesus said ... Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves. Mt. 23:15
Unless we belong to God and live in the integrity of God, all this will profit nothing.
Living in the "fear of the Lord" is seeking the will of God in all things and doing those things according to the will of God as shown by the Spirit of God.
A work that seems good to our thinking may not be good. That work may end up being destruction for you and others.
When it is God leading us, we are taken into "green pastures" where there is plenty and no lack. (Psa. 23) If you are doing things and are in "want" it should be obvious that the spirit leading you is not the Spirit of God for it goes against many scripture. By the "good" works you will end up being destroyed unless you STOP and turn to God. If you really belong to God we can hope HE will show you the disaster. So many "good" works are fleshly and minister to the flesh of man and not to the spirit.
