Close to The Tree of Life

 An Emoji Devotions for Tue 16 March, 2021

Topic: Close to The Tree of Life

Highlights: 

Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city. Outside are the dogs, those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood. Revelation 22:14-15

What's causing fights and quarrels among people? It's desires. Through desires many have become sexually immoral, murderer, idolaters and practitioners of falsehood. It is exciting, thrilling, and a little terrifying to fall head over heels for someone but it is dangerous to get carried away. We were all born with robes that can not be removed. It has an intense powerful force that is called destiny. Like a Leopard skin, like a cat body, like a fish with scales, each and everyone of us has a robe. When I see you and you see me, what did you see? A friend or an enemy, a tolerant or intolerant, a wise or proud man. I answered, "Sir, you know." And he said, "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore, "they are before the throne of God and serve him day and night in his temple; and he who sits on the throne will shelter them with his presence. Rev 7:14-15

When the table was set before you in the presence of your enemies, did you first serve yourself or did you first serve God. So I'm asking the same question again. What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don’t they come from your desires that battle within you? James 4:1

The soothing tongue is a tree of life,

    but a perverse tongue crushes the spirit. It's time to be passionate about God and say something that will sooth his feeling and make him feel so good everyday that He will call you a man or woman after his heart. 

Prayer: God you are amazing, I love your words, you make me happy. I will never leave you. I love you Jesus. Amen
