1 Peter 3:10–12 (ESV) — 10 For “Whoever desires to love life and see good days, let him keep his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking deceit; 11 let him turn away from evil and do good; let him seek peace and pursue it. 12 For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayer. But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”

  1. JT – This is the PowerBreak Podcast, I’m JT along with Bob Brubaker and this is the  –– time for some questions and answers. Feel free to submit your questions by EMAIL TO JT@bobbrubaker.com and we’ll get to the answer on an upcoming PowerBreak. Podcast…

 

  1. JT – Question ONE - FROM THE SPIRITUAL SIDE OF LIFE….

 

Do you really believe we can make a difference by living a righteous life?

 

  1. Bob

 

Most certainly… in several ways…

 

First – We don’t know what the number maybe that God has in which He has decided to destroy or not to destroy our country. He’s done so in the past of many countries and we should not take the principle of Abraham’s intercession for granted. Every righteous person makes a difference – BUT NOT IN HIDING OR ON THE SIDELINES

 

SECOND – PRAYER makes a big difference. God was going to wipe out Israel but Moses interceded . Do you think prayer makes a difference. Unfortunately, many Christians do not hence they do not pray. Many churches do not therefore the weekly prayer meeting is either non existant or so few come out it signals that they don’t really believe it works. ((((thankful for htose who are faithful in our church --- and see the passage from Malachi …. That God takes notice of the prayer meeting and the prayers of His people.

 

Third – Living a dedicated righteous life helps others --- in encouraging them as well as challenging them or in the case of children – preparing them to do likewise.

 

Fourth – We are told throughout the. NT that. It’s a priviledge to suffer for the sake of the cause of Christ. If we are persecuted or tormented for being a righteous person then we need to know that Jesus is suffering with us and we will not suffer alone

 

  1. JT – Question Two… “FROM THE MENTAL ASPECT”

 

How do we prepare mentally for the challenge of living righteously during troubled times?

 

  1. Bob

Expect it! Live by the scriptures. Follow the counsel of the blog --- check it out… meet with other Chrstians often NOW … be involved in prayer NOW … seek to apply the word of God to every decision NOW…

 

  1. (JT) Third Question …. Turning to the physical aspect of life….

Let’s talk about the value of a massage. What is your take

BB & JT discuss ---

 

  1. Great for relieving stress
  2. Great for working out tight muscles
  3. Great before a big event - -- IM FL
  4. Better after an event – IM Hawaii

 

  • How about you JT

 

Bob’s final comment – It takes discipline ….

 

Point: DISCIPLINE MAKES THE DIFFERENCE --- in all aspects of life
