We all know the commandment 'Thou shalt not covet anything that is thy neighbor's.'

We are all supposed to seek to be humble.

That's what causes me to be in a quandry: I covet my neighbor's humility..................

My biggest problem is wasting my time...Not doing anything bad, nor doing anything good...just doing nothing. I do alot of nothing.

your friend,

john

I find my biggest fault is my flesh and everything that goes along with it.

most everone i know will not come out openly and confess their faults, this seem, to be the weak point in all of us, some people want ever admit that they have any faults, but i am convinced that ever person alive has many faults .. some people would be to proud to admit that they have faults.. this would be a discretic to their person, admitting our shortcoming . we might ask why would God tell us to confess our faults to each other? well first off when we speak our faults this makes us more consious to our faults and then maybe we can threw confessing them to a brother , and then with their prayers and support in knowing our faults that both people could draw strength from a brother or sister faults by praying for each ..

nevertheless God word alway has a good reason for commanding us to do certain things, maybe you have never look into the value of confessing faults,

think about this when was the last time you heared someone actually admit some fault that they have and they admited openly that they was weak and faultly in some area..

I would guess that this command of the lord word is less practiced in about all the command of the word of God, because like i said most people are too proud to confess their faults..

I know that everthing God tell us in the Bible to do there has to be a good purpose behind it. all my life i have looked closely at my faults, some i have fixed and some i still need work on .. and if you would set down and list your faults you better get a notebook of paper because you going to need one. Did you know that not being friendly could be listed as a fault?

being harsh to a love one returning a answer to a question they have asked nicely..

not being polite...is a fault ..being unwilling to listen when the preacher is preaching is a fault...saying you will pray for a brother or sisters needs and not performing it is a fault...not interested in someone testimony in church or ever caring about what they said is a fault...not encoraging the pastor and bragging on his sermons, is a fault... letting vuglar word slip from the mouth when you mash your finger.. faults are everwhere in human kind,.. it good that God gives us direction in confessing our fault .. but most important of all is confessing our sins to our lord and asking him to heal our faults and shortcoming...

i can relate ,,, and with most of the faults stated

pride and anger is a big one with me

like what happend to stormy

jesus would have to grab me and tie my heart up so i didnt hunt down and blow that dudes head off

i forget that vengence belongs to the lord ,,, he remiminds me on occasion if i get to fired up

Could you kindly clarify how could one covet a neighbor's humility? Are we not supposed to follow the good examples of others, one of which is humility? Or are you perhaps just jumbling up the words "to follow and to covet"? :blink:

This is what I should have said. But that's not to imply that my spirit half is perfect, either.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
