One-Anothering Daily Devotional -Day 31 October 31
DO NOT SPEAK EVIL OF ONE ANOTHER
Do not speak evil of one another, brethren.
James 4:11[NKJV]
A "One Anothering" Thought
Evil means:
  • morally wrong or bad; immoral
  • harmful; injurious:
  • marked by anger, irritability
Since we are believers we should not be doing things which God would consider morally wrong
or bad, harmful or injurious , to anyone, but especially to our brethren.
We all get angry or irritable sometimes and that is not necessarily evil
unless it is deliberately meant to cause harm or injury.

ONE-ANOTHERING IN ACTION:
I think we as believers know that we need to practice good and not evil.
Every day we should seek to fill ourselves with the good news of God's word
so there will be no room for anything evil to dwell within us.
We need to let the light of Christ shine in us so bright
that no amount of darkness can penetrate us.
Then we will be speaking good and not evil, to our brethren and also to the world.

For,"Whoever would love life and see good days must keep his tongue from evil
and his lips from deceitful speech.
He must turn from evil and do good; he must seek peace and pursue it.

1 Peter 3:10-11 [NKJV]
This is the last Devotional in the "One-Anothering" series. I hope this Devotional helped you to see how the Lord wants His people to treat each other.

Tomorrow will start a new Devotional called: "Attitude of Gratitude".
This 30 day Devotional will bring a scripture of thanks and a prayer of gratitude,
which will help to keep us grateful for each day the Lord gives us.
