God's people are to only eat in a manner that is not an abomination to Him but rather His glorification. Eat and Drink to God's Holy Glory.

God's people and prepare to fight the good fight of faith because they know it is God Who will fight for them. Be Prepared to Fight the Good Fight, and Often Your Enemies' Fearful Threats will Fizzle. Because Our God Shall Fight for Us.

God's separated people who have the certainty of eternal life in Christ and the resurrection should not grieve the death of their loved ones in the Lord like the world but distinctively show their holy hope in heaven. Don't Grieve Your Deceased Brethren with a Worldly Lack of Hope in Heaven.

When aggravated anger of God's enemies toward the work of His people with a real threat of attack that can cause the Church to emotional exhaustion and possibly interrupt the work, God's leaders must prepare His people with prayer, a plan of defense, and motivational preaching that can stop the threat and keep the people going. Be Prepared to Fight the Good Fight, and Often Your Enemies' Fearful Threats will Fizzle.

God's call on His people to live a clean, holy, separate, sanctified life that honors His name is because of who they are as He has made them in Himself and their own identity and reputation in Christ. As God's Blessed People Be Blessed.

The response of God's leaders to growing reproach by God's enemies should be increasing in prayer for God to intervene so that God's people respond in continuing to make progress building Christ's church. When Oppressed, Keep Praying and Making Progress.

Because God has heard our cry to live and answered, "Yes," let us live all our lives loving Him. Let Us Love the Lord for Letting Us Live.

While some live longer, we all only have very little time on this earth that is full of sorrowful living. Your Days on this Earth Are Numbered.

When God's people and their situation seem insignificant and insecure during times of reformation, they need to see themselves as God does and rejoice in what He has begun, is doing, and will finish in and through them. Don't Despise the Day of Small Things!

The price of attaining the truth is worth the cost. Spare No Expense to Have Christ and His Wisdom.

The hearts of wise covenant parents greatly rejoice within when their children show they are wise within from without. Covenant Children: Being Wise of Heart Will Rejoice Your Parents' Hearts Most.

What one does with their lives, good or bad, expresses and extends joyful or sorrowful living. Rejoice in Being Righteous and Doing What's Right.

Having God's gift of faith is the reason anyone can see and profess the Gospel or anything else as true.

The words of God in His Word must be carefully considered and kept in heart and life by His people. Give Jesus All Your Attention.

There is no one like the Lord Who alone exists in glorious holiness and does wonderful works of salvation. Your God is Glorious in Holiness.

The wide way of life that the majority is going is the wrong way to follow because it leads to eternal death. The Wide Way is the Wrong Way.

The one who is willing to lose his life now for Jesus finds it forever in Jesus. We are Blessed to Belong with the Losers.

One Christian can cause many foes to flee because it is their God Who fights for them. Because God Fights for You, Through You Your Many Foes Will Flee.

God's good leaders rebuild and build up His Church in every generation managing good organization and delegation by the will of God and the humble, unified, good will of His people. Build as Christ's One Risen Body.

God will let His people's life and love be tested to purify them against strong influences toward blaspheming Him through disloyal behavior that is inconsistent for those who bear His name. Only Love and Live for God.
