Setting boundaries



God's boundaries for you and I are His loving restraints to keep us from falling away from Him. Boundaries of love from a loving God protect us from the evil one. They are always for our good

No, O people, the LORD has told you what is good, and this is what he requires of you:
to do what is right, to love mercy,
and to walk humbly with your God. (Micah 6vs8)

God's Word clearly states certain rules that we must live by. But God's Word also talks much about following the Spirit of His law, doing things that will not cause another to stumble, even though those things might technically be appropriate.

It might not be a matter of conscience for you, but it is for the other person.....I, too, try to please everyone in everything I do. I don’t just do what is best for me; I do what is best for others so that many may be saved. (1Cor 10vs29-33)

It is important for us to follow (strictly) God's boundaries for us.... And to set boundaries for ourselves based on God's Word and the leading of the Holy Spirit for a successful Christian journey.

May God help us!
