If You Don’t Stand For Something, You’ll Fall For Anything!

If You Don’t Stand For Something, You’ll Fall For Anything!

If You Don’t Stand For Something, You’ll Fall for Anything

“A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.” James 1:8 KJV

Why did I pick this title you ask? It’s attributed to something I read on the internet. Once again Donald Trump has turned faith into a fundraising tool. No, I am not a Fan! I usually don’t talk about the politics of this country on the show, but I had to address this article I read.

Trumps political action committee, Never Surrender, INC, emailed supporters asking for a 15-dollar donation, built around the slogan, “I want to try and get to Heaven.” Did you hear me? Can anybody/somebody tell me what a 15-dollar donation has to do with getting to Heaven?! These folks are gonna have to stop playing with God.

In my younger years as it relates to God, I was taught He is not a toy and if I want a toy, I need to save my change for TG&Y. That was our Walmart back in the day. And yes, unfortunately people are still falling for the political okie dokie! No matter what title you may hold, it’s makes no never mind to God. He has no respect a person. His eyes are in every place beholding both good and bad. People are going to have to wake up!

My title says it all. “If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything!” This means that a person without core principles, values, or convictions is easily swayed by others, susceptible to manipulation. People are hurting, hungry, and homeless. People are forced to choose between medicine or something to eat, a roof over their heads or gas for work. People out there are giving everything they have to “someone” who has no concern about their yesterday, today or tomorrow. Make no mistake about it, God is watching, for every knee will bow, and every tongue will confess the deeds done in this body, Mr. President it called “accountability.”

So, my friends, if you want to stand for something. Stand on the promises of God. And remember a double minded man is unstable in all his ways. Let’s continue to rise above the foolishness! Amen.

Remember friends, we are each other’s keeper and the only time we should be looking down on someone is when we are helping them up.

“If it had not been the Lord who was on our side,”
Let Israel now say— “If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, when men rose up against us, then they would have swallowed us alive, when their wrath was kindled against us. Then the waters would have overwhelmed us,
The stream would have gone over our soul. Then the swollen waters Would have gone over our soul.” Blessed be the Lord, who has not given us as prey to their teeth.” Psalm 124:1-6 NKJV

This Psalm of Ascent is attributed to David; it expresses gratitude for deliverance from enemies. It emphasizes that if it were not for the Lord’s intervention, his people would have been overwhelmed by their adversaries. The psalm highlights the Lord as the protector and source of help, comparing their escape to a bird escaping a snare.

The psalm begins with a hypothetical scenario: if the Lord had not been on their side, the people would have been swallowed alive, overwhelmed by the wrath and force of their enemies, depicted as raging waters.

The tone shifts to praise and gratitude. The psalmist blesses the Lord for not allowing them to become prey to their enemies’ attacks. They compare their escape to a bird escaping a snare.

The psalm concludes with a declaration of trust in the Lord, acknowledging Him as the creator of heaven and earth and the ultimate source of their help.

Who you with friends? Is it the Lord who is strong and mighty, the Lord who is almighty in battle, He is the King of Glory. Not only will he fight for His children, He Wins!

Remember Friends, we are each other’s keeper and the only time we should be looking down on someone is when we are helping them up.
