'LIVING WELL IN BAD DAYS'

Look therefore carefully how ye walk not as unwise but as wise, redeeming the time; because the days are evil. Ephesians 5: 15-16.

       The Apostle Paul, in a prophetic vision that is fulfilled literally in our day, and also serve their advice to live well, the bad days that we're going through, and that it is necessary, prudent, differentiated experiences of the foolish, but as wise, making every second, because the days are evil. Living well is the aim of everyone, and the word in this sense expresses: What is good, lawful and commendable, but has a special feature to the sense that the word of God defines good living when God or His word instructs us how to live, and having a prudent life, wise instead of foolish, it has no connotation of a life well financially, or physically healthy, God refers to the spiritual life, a pure and blameless life of the common good with the Almighty , doing his will. It is possible to live in a hovel, and live well, with the presence and glory of God in your life, unlike Prosperity Theology, which teaches we demand of God, health, and financial prosperity. The Lord Jesus teaches us how to live in this world without contaminating the same, and doing His will, He said: Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added. Fret not yourself because, for tomorrow, because tomorrow will worry about itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. Matthew 6.33-34. Jesus warned that we can not worry about the future, because the future does not belong to us, not needing to get restless and anxious as to eat drink or wear, if He cares for the lilies of the field, do not leave us adrift, and as raking treasures, is better than raking in heaven on earth, here moth and rust consume, but none of that will happen in heaven, why should we put first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and as to other things, in be added.

        In the Gospel of Luke, Jesus tells a parable, known as the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, the rich lived their self-indulgence and splendid life, dressing in fine linen, and all the perks, and also lived a poor man named Lazarus, that his life was the opposite, and came to eat the crumbs that fall from the rich man's table, however, who lived well by incredible that anyone could doubt, Lazarus was, despite its mendigação life of this world, but had communion with the most High, for the greatest treasure in someone's life is eternally assured of salvation, while the rich man went to the place of eternal torment and suffering. Luke 16.19-30. He who has Jesus in your life, is not absent from having problems, discomfort, pain, obstacles, as the Lord said; I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace; the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world. John 16:33, He ensured that only those who are in it have peace, even in affliction, and the greater glory that fills us with joy, and gives us greater strength and inexplicable, was that He has overcome the world, and being in it too win always redeeming the time, that is taking advantage of the time, never waste time on useless things. One day I witnessed an episode that only understands those who have Christ in your life, I passed by a city street, I met an old lady of about seventy-odd years, and she was picking recyclable objects in the street, and stopped to watch that granny, I was impressed because she kept singing a hymn praising God, and I approached her and said; cheerful grandma? She replied; thank God, because anyone who has Jesus has everything. Absolutely affirm that the natural man can not understand the great mysteries of the spiritual life, as Paul said: But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. I Corinthians 1:27. The psalmist speaks of this grandeur of God, with his infinite transformer and matchless love what the text says: Who is like the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high? Which leans to see what is in the heavens and on earth! He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the dunghill, to make him sit with princes, even with the princes of his people. Makes the barren woman to keep house, and be a joyful mother of children. Praise the Lord. Psalm 113.5-9. There is nobody in this world that will compare with the preciousness of God's love, sometimes someone practicing so much evil, which is denied by society, friends, and even the family, and even more; when no longer useful for anything in this world, in the face of human logic, but when he hears the call of Jesus saying: Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am meek and lowly in heart; and find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. Matthew 11.28-30. The transforming and renewing power of the Lord are unparalleled, and it is important to say that the door of mercy is open to all who wish to receive this transformation was for this that he came to this world, change my and your story, no matter what the world accuse you, or condemn you, the most important is that Jesus knows you inside and out, including the way you are, and if you give him a chance, surely your life will change, and will change to better, because all is not lost, because our God is the God of the impossible as the Evangelist Luke records; For with God nothing is impossible. Luke 1.37.

         Then we learned that the important thing in this world is to worship God, and have a life of communion with Him, to either enjoy the glory that is the most interesting in our day-to-day, as our subject, which is our body physical, sometimes suffer detriment, for the infirmities and obstacles of life which curtail us, this world is natural, to have the knowledge that is not our rest here, since Jesus being the Son of God, also went through hardships and difficult moments of this life, as Paul describes in his Letter to the Romans; He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered him up for us all, as in not with him also give us all things? Romans 8:32. We do not know what we will face in this present life, but we know that the fights do not come beyond what we can bear, on the contrary, it will give us the means by which we can escape as the Apostle Paul encourages saying no temptation has overtaken you, but human; but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able, but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that you can stand. I Corinthians 10:13. The important thing is that he is with us in every moment of our lives, in joy, in sorrow, in calm and also in pain, we sometimes despise, and exchanged for offers and delicacies of this world, but he never gives up me and you, is always open arms to receive us, even if one becomes forgetful of father or mother, he will never forget, as the prophet Isaiah prophesied about seven hundred ten years before Christ. Perhaps a woman can forget both his son that he believed should not have compassion on the son of her womb? But that still may forget, yet I will not forget you. Isaiah 49:15. Anyway, we can trust in God's promises without wavering, and receive the advice of the Apostle John; Dear children, are from God and have overcome them; because greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world. I João4.4. With absolute certainty, we can raise our heads and say as Paul said, What shall we then say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? Romans 8:31. Amen.
