Trust in the Lord and do good; Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness. Psalm 37:3 NASB
Depart from evil and do good, So you will abide forever. Psalm 37:27 NASB
Both of these verses talk about doing good. As Christians that is what we are to do do good and not evil. What is good let's, look at Galatians 5:22-23 (ESV), But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. These things are good and what we are to have as Christians meaning these are to be evident in our lives if we profess Christ as our Lord and Savior.
But what I am talking about is those things but so much more. Holding a door for someone, helping someone to their car, carrying something for someone, helping a neighbor and the list could go on and on.
We as Christians are set apart. But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. 1 Peter 2:9 ESV. Yes, we are a chosen people according to the verse above and how will people know this if we do not show that we are by doing good.
In all the cops shows there is a part where they find evidence that helps them find the person. What if People needed to this about us would they find evidence that we are Christians by what we do. We need to live out our faith and one of those ways is to do good. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” John 13:35 ESV. How will people know we are Jesus Disciples if we do not show it. We need to do good.
Do good today!!!!
