When a real man of God goes to work, he rolls up his sleeves, gets stuck in, and does his very best. And he does this consistently.It's easy to cheat on your employer by using your personal phone work hours. A real son of God will not text in the boss's time. This is all part of the easy road. No, a thousand times No to all these slouchy easy-going attitudes.
If you are in a job where the unions are forcing you to take your time and drag your feet, look for other employment. It is bad for your character to be submitted to such godlessness.
The easy road is filled with takers that think the world owes them something. They always have their hands out to get paid for doing next to nothing. The easy roaders wait for others to pay for them at the restaurant. They love to eat food provided by others. Away with such nonsense. God did not create man to be so apathetic and useless. He created us to be people of character.
Those walking the narrow road have true servant hearts and can't wait to do something to help their fellow man.
Be encouraged.

Proverbs 28:1 says: "The righteous are as bold as a lion." God is bold and He despises fear and cowardice.
Acts 4:13: "Now when they saw the BOLDNESS of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marveled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus."
What does it mean to be alert? To be watchful, vigilant, guarding against surprise or danger.
A message to all fathers and mothers on the VALUE of a godly home:
Jesus said that the attitude of Christians in the end times should be to watch and pray. This speaks of alertness. To be honest, the church should right now be full of the most alert men in the world. This would be the case if "Christian" men would take the words of Christ to heart.
Take time to Read Revelation 2:1-7. This word to the Ephesus church reveals that the fire of our “first love” to Jesus Christ is far more important than many other commendable things we may do for Christ—
“A dog barks when his master is attacked. I would be a coward if I saw that God's truth is attacked and yet would remain silent.”
“The militant church is one that never retreats but advances, conquering every stronghold of the enemy through prayer and perseverance.”
“If Jesus preached the same message ministers preach today, He would never have been crucified.”
I don’t believe Christian couples should be like hedgehogs to one another. I mentioned this when speaking at the Above Rubies Family Retreat in Florida recently. A woman approached me and said that she and her husband were Mr. and Mrs. Hedgehog and could they both receive counsel about the matter.
“For the truth’s sake, and because the true God is on our side, let us in these modern days of warfare emulate the warriors of Israel, and unfurl our banners to the breeze with confident joy. Dark signs of present or coming ill must not dishearten us; if the Lord had meant to destroy us, He would not have given us the gospel.”
"The simple step of a courageous individual is not to partake in the lie. One word of Truth outweighs the world."
Have you heard about the Isaiah62 prayer and fasting for Israel. It began yesterday, 7th May and will continue until 28th May.
"Pain insists on being attended to. God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our consciences, but shouts in our pains. It is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world."
"The goverment you elect is the government you deserve."
"The evangelical church has largely failed to be the Church Militant. We are in a war. If you don't understand this, when the bullets start flying, you will say 'we've got to be nicer,' 'we've got to be more relevant.' That's simply wrong-headed. This world is not our friend.
"I'd rather have 10 people that want God, than 10,000 people who want to play church."
It's wrong for men to sit back and let their wife take all, or most of the family responsibilities. Men should help when needed. They should give godly advice and discipline when needed. They should also take their responsibility to lead the family in daily Family Devotions.
