“The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall come out of trouble” (Proverbs 12:13).
Life can be unpredictable, but one sure thing is that wicked people create their own problems. Words are powerful; people who speak evil will trip themselves up, and what they declare will come to pass in their own lives, but God delivers His children from trouble.

“But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves” (James 1:22, NKJV).
It’s easy to passively listen to the Word, but God intends for us act on it by applying it to our lives and sharing it with others. Actions speak louder than words.

“Understand [this], my beloved brethren. Let every man be quick to hear [a ready listener], slow to speak, slow to take offense and to get angry. For man’s anger does not promote the righteousness God [wishes and requires]” (James 1:19, 20 AMPC).
We live in an angry environment; those who are influenced by it are always ready to take offense and speak in anger. Believers who have been made righteous have overcome the spirit of anger.

“A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver” (Proverbs 25:11).
Fools tend to blurt out anything without putting any thought into what they say, thereby revealing their ignorance. However, the true wisdom to know exactly what to say, and when to say it, comes only from God.

“Be not forward (self-assertive and boastfully ambitious) in the presence of the king, and stand not in the place of great men; for better it is that it should be said to you, Come up here, than that you should be put lower in the presence of the prince, whose eyes have seen you” (Proverbs 25:6, 7, AMPC).
Proud, arrogant people broadcast to the world how great they are and what wonderful things they’re doing. This mindset sets us up for a humiliating fall; instead of puffing ourselves up, it’s better to humbly let others exalt us.

“Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him” (James 1:12, NIV).
Perseverance is an important spiritual trait we need for the successful life God wants us to have. Tough times are always waiting to happen, but adversity won’t overcome us when we persevere and stand fast in God’s love.

“Do not forget or neglect to do kindness and good, to be generous and distribute and contribute to the needy [of the church as embodiment and proof of fellowship], for such sacrifices are pleasing to God” (Hebrews 13:16, AMPC).Â
The church is the hands and feet of Christ, and one of its main purposes is to serve others for God’s glory. Remembering to sacrifice our own self-will and share Jesus’ kindness and love is what the Father wants us to do.

“And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him” (Hebrews 11:6, NIV).
Faith is a willingness to accept something as true even when we haven’t seen it, heard it, or felt it. Believers receive it as a gift though God’s grace.

“I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought” (1 Corinthians 1:10, NIV).
Thinking like the world will only confuse and divide us, but being united with other believers who are of the same mind as Christ helps us avoid this pitfall. For this kind of unity, we must be sensitive to the prompting of the Holy Spirit.
