Proverbs 13:20 He who walks with the wise will be wise but a
companion of fools suffers harm. Proverbs 4:23 Above all else guard
your heart Proverbs 4:23 for it is the wellspring of life Proverbs
18:21 There is life and death in the power of the tongue. Proverbs
3:3-4 Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around
your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. 4 Then you will
win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man. Your
reputation is a reflection of:
Your identity What you value Romans 1:8 First, I thank my God
through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being
reported all over the world. Judas Iscariot Benedict Arnold John
Wilkes Booth What will you and I be known for? How do I win a good
name before God and man? 1.Love God is Great, God is Good, and we
thank Him for this food. Gods Love is Unmerited Romans 5:8 But God
proves His own love for us in that whilewe were still sinners
Christ died for us! Gods Love is Indestructible Romans 8:35-39 Who
can separate us from the love of Christ?Can affliction or anguish
or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? 37 No, in
all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved
us. Romans 8:35-39 38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor
life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to
come,nor powers, Romans 8:35-39 39 nor height, nor depth, nor any
other created thing will have the power to separate us from the
love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord! Gods Love is Unending
Isaiah 49:14,15 The LORD has abandoned me; The Lord has forgotten
me! 15 Can a woman forget her nursing child, or lack compassion for
the child of her womb? Even if these forget, yet I will not forget
you. Psalm 136:1-26 His Love is eternal 26 times! 2. Faithfulness
Because God is good, God is faithful. Intemptation, God is
faithful. 1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has seized you except
what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be
tempted beyond what you can bear.But when you are tempted, he will
also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.
Inforgiveness, God is faithful. 1 John 1:8-10 If we claim to be
without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. 9 If
we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us
our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. Inspiritual
growth, God is faithful. 1 Thessalonians 5:19-24 Do not put out the
Spirit's fire; 20 do not treat prophecies with contempt. 21 Test
everything. Hold on to the good. 22 Avoid every kind of evil. 23
May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and
through
23 May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and
through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at
the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24 The one who calls you is
faithful and he will do it. come together in describing the
Lord
Love Faithfulness come together in describing the Lord Exodus
34:5-7 Then the LORD came down in the cloud and stood there with
him and proclaimed his name, the LORD. 6 And he passed in front of
Moses, proclaiming, "The LORD, the LORD, Exodus 34:5-7 the
compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love
and faith-fulness, maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving
wickedness, rebellion and sin. Psalm 89:14-15 Righteousness and
justice are the foundation of your throne; love and faithfulness go
before you.15 Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim you,
who walk in the light of your presence, O LORD. Psalm 36:5 Your
love, O LORD,reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the
skies. Building a good Reputation The motive is love. I Corinthians
13:1-3 If I speak the languages of men and of angels, but do not
have love, I am a sounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have
the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all
knowledge, and if I have all I Corinthians 13:1-3 faith, so that I
can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 And if I
donate all my goods to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be
burned, but do not have love, I gain nothing. I John 4:7-8 Dear
friends, let us love one another, because love is from God, and
everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 The one
who does not love does not know God, because God is love. The
method is faithfulness. Proverbs 28:20 A faithful man shall abound
with blessings. Matthew 25:21 Well done, thou good and faithful
servant - you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you
ruler over many things - enter into the joy of your Lord! Time +

grow in love? Where do I need to grow in faithfulness? Proverbs
3:3-4 Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around
your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. 4 Then you will
win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man.
