Does murmuring complaining and disputing fighting do harm to a child of God?
Philippians 2:13-16
13.For It Is God Who Works In You To Will And To Act According To His Good Purpose.
14.Do Everything Without Complaining Or Arguing,
15.So That You May Become Blameless And Pure, Children Of God Without Fault In A Crooked And Depraved Generation, In Which You Shine Like Stars In The Universe
16.As You Hold Out The Word Of Life–in Order That I May Boast On The Day Of Christ That I Did Not Run Or Labor For Nothing.
…so that you will be blameless, pure, without fault, and so that you shine like stars!
…when we complain and argue , we have a blame against us, we are not pure and have fault that the devil can easily accuse us! Don’t give him place…
Submit to God!
It is God who gives you good intentions , to do good works and hence fulfill His good purpose!
Let us be thankful in all situations! Let us thank God for His amazing love, compassion, for Jesus, for providing us with all our basic provisions; food , water, air to breath, roof over our head , a family to love, people who care , that we are able to breath and walk, to work (…rather than complaining and cursing your work…)
Remember someone would love to be in your place and would be grateful to enjoy these!
Deuteronomy 28:45-48
45.All these curses will come on you. They will pursue you and overtake you until you are destroyed, because you did not obey the Lord your God and observe the commands and decrees he gave you.
46 They will be a sign and a wonder to you and your descendants forever.
47 Because you did not serve the Lord your God joyfully and gladly in the time of prosperity,
48 therefore in hunger and thirst, in nakedness and dire poverty, you will serve the enemies the Lord sends against you. He will put an iron yoke on your neck until he has destroyed you.
Let us learn to have a grateful/ thankful heart!
