As we’re in the book of Philippians this week, I bring you to Philippians 1:11: “being filled with fruits of Righteousness.” The root word of righteousness is to do right, be right. God wants my life today to be right. If I can be right this way with God, I’ll be this right this way with you.
I want to be right with people today. You know, this old self-will, the selfishness and pride, gets in the way. But if I would decrease and He will increase (John 3:30), I must decrease. He must increase. And when He increases in my life, I can have fruits of righteousness today. Make deposits on the journey of life today with seeds of righteousness, fruits of righteousness that will flourish. Do right in a marriage, in a home and a family, at the job, and your church. Let’s all do right, as Dr. Bob Jones used to say, till the stars fall.
Live in righteousness today. God bless you.

You helped me today Pastor as you do every day no matter what has happened I still have not lost the desire to watch your live streaming messages on Sunday and now my husband enjoys watching you as well which says a lot because in the past he didn’t watch too many videos or messages he was new to all of these things but now he will only listen to you and we watch you every Sunday with my dad John Googe. Take care and thank you for all you’ve done for me.
