October 31--One-Anothering Daily Devotional -Day 31 DO NOT SPEAK EVIL OF ONE ANOTHER Do not speak evil of one another, brethren. James 4:11[NKJV] A One Anothering Thought Evil means: morally wrong or bad; immoral harmful; injurious: marked by anger, irritability Since we are believers we should not be doing things which God would consider morally wrong or bad, harmful or injurious , to anyone, but especially to our brethren. We all get angry or irritable sometimes and that is not necessarily evil unless it is deliberately meant to cause harm or injury. ONE-ANOTHERING IN ACTION: I think we as believers know that we need to practice good and not evil. Every day we should seek to fill ourselves with the good news of Gods word so there will be no room for anything evil to infiltrate our lives. We need to let the light of Christ shine in us so bright that no amount of darkness can penetrate us. Then we will be speaking good and not evil, to our brethren and also to the world. For,Whoever would love life and see good days must keep his tongue from evil and his lips from deceitful speech. He must turn from evil and do good; he must seek peace and pursue it. 1 Peter 3:10-11 [NKJV] This is the last Devotional in the One-Anothering series. I hope this Devotional helped you to see how the Lord wants His people to treat each other. Tomorrow we will start a new Devotional called: Attitude of Gratitude. This 30 day Devotional will bring a scripture of thanks and a prayer of gratitude, which will help to keep us grateful for each day the Lord gives us. I hope you will join me in this. ©SGLY Ministry smilegodlovesyou.org smilegodlovesyou.org/OA/OAD31.html
