Do you want to be blessed?

1 Peter 3:8-12

⁸ Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind. ⁹ Do not repay evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary, bless, for to this you were called, that you may obtain a blessing. 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.” 

Two things that is desired to have in check in order to satisfy our calling.

• Mind
• Unity of mind
• Humble mind
• Heart
• Sympathy
• Brotherly love
• Tender heart

Quote from PS 34:12-16 on how to make it happen.

1. Control your mouth
2. Flea evil, do good
3. Seek, pursue  peace
4. Puts you were the honey falls

Duty of the Watchman

Ezk 3:10-21

¹⁰ Moreover, he said to me, “Son of man, all my words that I shall speak to you receive in your heart, and hear with your ears. ¹¹ And go to the exiles, to your people, and speak to them and say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God,’ whether they hear or refuse to hear.” 

¹² Then the Spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me the voice of a great earthquake: “Blessed be the glory of the Lord from its place!” ¹³ It was the sound of the wings of the living creatures as they touched one another, and the sound of the wheels beside them, and the sound of a great earthquake. ¹⁴ The Spirit lifted me up and took me away, and I went in bitterness in the heat of my spirit, the hand of the Lord being strong upon me. ¹⁵ And I came to the exiles at Tel-abib, who were dwelling by the Chebar canal, and I sat where they were dwelling. And I sat there overwhelmed among them seven days. 

A Watchman for Israel

¹⁶ And at the end of seven days, the word of the Lord came to me: ¹⁷ “Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel. Whenever you hear a word from my mouth, you shall give them warning from me. ¹⁸ If I say to the wicked, ‘You shall surely die,’ and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, in order to save his life, that wicked person shall die for his iniquity, but his blood I will require at your hand. ¹⁹ But if you warn the wicked, and he does not turn from his wickedness, or from his wicked way, he shall die for his iniquity, but you will have delivered your soul. ²⁰ Again, if a righteous person turns from his righteousness and commits injustice, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he shall die. Because you have not warned him, he shall die for his sin, and his righteous deeds that he has done shall not be remembered, but his blood I will require at your hand. ²¹ But if you warn the righteous person not to sin, and he does not sin, he shall surely live, because he took warning, and you will have delivered your soul.” 

Duty of the Watchman

4. Go when you don't fell like it vs 14
5. Sat where they sat vs 15
