    FAITH BOOSTERS (PART 1): A GOOD CONSCIENCE (C)

    And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
    John 8:9 (KJV)

    Today we are going to see that it takes light from the Word of Yahweh for us to have a good conscience. A Good Conscience Is Enlightened. A good conscience is taught by the Word of Yahweh and guided by the Spirit of Yahweh. Romans 12:2 (KJV) says, ‘And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.’ For us not to conform to the system and standards of this world, we must renew our minds with the Word of Yahweh. An unrenewed mind cannot produce a good conscience – impossible. Constantly renewing our minds with the Word is the cure to weak and defiled conscience. The Word strengthens our conscience. It also cleanses it (see Ephesians 5:26). While salvation deals with a sinful and evil conscience, renewing our mind with the Word of Yahweh is the answer to a weak and defiled conscience. When all of these wrong types of consciences are done away it, a pure and good conscience emerges.

    Conscience attaches itself to the highest standard that the person knows. As we grow in our spiritual life, our standard gets higher and higher. When we first meet the Lord, we have many things to learn. As the light begins to shine into our hearts, we see the cobwebs and the dust, and we begin to clean things up. The more knowledge you have about Elohim and the more knowledge you have about the grace of Yahweh, the better your conscience will function. This is why we must read the Word of Yahweh, exhort one another and seek the light from the Holy Spirit. When Yahushua spoke to the people in our text, their consciences came alive. You see that it is the word of HaMashiach that brings the conscience to life. Before they met HaMashiach, the consciences of these crowd of people never bothered them at all. They would stone this woman to death but then the Word spoke and one by one, their consciences began convicting them. It takes the Word of Yahushua to maintain a good conscience.

    In I Corinthians 8 Paul made it clear that knowledge and conscience go together. The consciences of some people don’t bother them because they don’t have the knowledge that should enlighten their consciences. Some people do not have any light; they have darkness—the darkness of superstition and ignorance. When John Knox was preaching the Gospel in Scotland and seeking to reform the church, Queen Mary, who had a different belief, opposed him. She said to him one day, “My conscience is not so.” John Knox replied to Queen Mary, “Conscience, Madam, requires knowledge, and I fear that right knowledge you have none.” Beloved, laziness in the Word is both the obliteration of your faith and a good conscience. Selah!

    REMEMBER: It takes the Word of God to produce a good conscience.

    PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your word to me today. I receive the grace to stay in the Word until I shine a good conscience in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: That lack of interest for the Word in your heart is cursed now in your life in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

  • FAITH BOOSTERS (PART 1): A GOOD CONSCIENCE (B)

    FAITH BOOSTERS (PART 1): A GOOD CONSCIENCE (B)

    And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward God, and toward men.
    Acts 24:16 (KJV)

    Today we are going to see how a good conscience helps us to be effective in our faith walk. Let us outline ways a good conscience effectively helps faith:

    1. A good conscience effectively keeps us on course. “As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine, neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions rather than godly edifying which is in faith, so do. Now the end [object] of the commandment is love out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned, from which some, having swerved, have turned aside unto vain jangling” (1 Timothy 1:3-6). Paul warned Timothy to stick to the doctrines of the Word of God. They help us develop a good conscience, and a good conscience will keep us on course. Verse 6 uses the phrase “have turned aside.” This phrase means they have missed the mark, they have swerved, they have gone off course. You see, God has a course for each of us, and we had better stay on that course. If we don’t stay on course, we won’t achieve the purposes God has for us. A good conscience keeps us from going off course to fables and foolish arguments.
    2. A good conscience will help you to have victory. First Timothy 1:18,19 says, “This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which pointed to thee, that thou by them mightest war a good warfare, holding faith, and a good conscience, which some, having put away concerning faith, have made shipwreck.” First you go off course, and then you wreck the ship. We are in a battle. We must fight a good warfare, a warfare against the world, the flesh and the Devil. Those who have faith and a good conscience can fight the battle and win the victory. Nothing gives you greater courage as you face the battles of life than a good conscience.
    3. A good conscience helps Us Be Honest. Hebrews 13:18 says, “Pray for us; for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly.” The word translated “honestly” means “beautifully, seemingly, fittingly.” The Christian life is to be a beautiful life. But if you have a good conscience, you will be able to live an honest life, a beautiful life. People will look at you and say, “There is something about him or her that is really lovely.” It’s unfortunate when believers in HaMashiach don’t pay their bills. It’s unfortunate when believers have a bad reputation in the business community. If a person has a good conscience, he will live honestly, pay his bills and keep his promises. He will be true to his contracts because his conscience will help him to live honestly.
    4. A good conscience Keeps Us Witnessing. In I Peter 3:14-17 we discover that a good conscience is effective to keep us witnessing. “But and if ye suffer for righteousness’ sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled, but sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear, having a good conscience, that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good manner of life [behavior] in Christ. For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well-doing than for evil-doing.” Obstacles can become opportunities. When people are making trouble for you, it is an opportunity to witness if you have a good conscience. If you’ve done evil, your conscience will rebuke you and convict you, but if you are doing good, your conscience will strengthen you. There is nothing like a good conscience to keep you strong when people are lying about you.

    A good conscience is an effective conscience. It keeps us on course, keeps us victorious, keeps us honest and keeps us witnessing when the going is tough. The person who abandons a good conscience begins to swerve off course and to move towards the dangerous reefs of life, and before long he is shipwrecked. Selah!

    REMEMBER: A good conscience keeps you on course, victorious, honest and witnessing.

    PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your word to me today. I receive the grace to maintain a good conscience in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!

    PROPHETIC RELEASE: I decree that you will not go off course in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
