BLESSED BY ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENTS
My Dear Precious Child,
In a lot of the teachings of Jesus Christ He taught His disciples and you about attitude adjustments. For instance, after He told His disciples the attitudes that they and you must have in order for My kingdom of God to flourish in your life He said that in the past some of their ancestors had taught them that they should not kill anyone and if they did that the consequences would be that they would be taken to court and punished. All of the disciples knew that one because Moses' laws were commonly known. However, Jesus went further in adjusting their attitudes. He told them, and you, that if you are angry with anyone that you will also answer for it before the courts. He added to it by saying that if you call your brother a fool you will answer for it before the elders of the city and if you call anyone a traitor that you will answer for it before the fires of hell. So Jesus was telling His disciples that anger is a precursor to eventually killing someone. He was saying that having an angry attitude toward someone will allow the devil to add to that anger in your thoughts and eventually you might even be tempted by the devil to kill the person. (Matthew 5:21-26)
In adjusting their attitudes toward anger being a possible precursor to killing someone, Jesus told His disciples and you that the way to stop that angry thought before it becomes an attitude and then an action is that if you are bringing your offerings to the altar and remember that a brother has something against you, that you are to leave the altar, be reconciled with your brother first and then go back and present your offerings. He told them to make peace with your opponent quickly while you are on the way to court with him or he might hand you over to the judge and the judge to the officer and you will be thrown into prison. He said that your having the attitude of anger against someone can grow until you have paid the last penny you have while in prison if you continue to be motivated by old attitudes and refuse to allow Me to adjust them.
In the teachings about attitude adjustments Jesus Christ was trying to save My children the horrors of allowing the devil to continue to feed anger into your thoughts because his plan for doing it is to eventually cause you to be overcome with anger until you do something that will curse your life for years. My method through Jesus' teachings is to always make peace with everyone before anger grows into the desire to do something that will cause you to be put in prison. If you don't yield to My Holy Spirit's guidance to make peace with everyone, then you might spend years in not only physical prison but also emotional and spiritual prison by allowing the devil to increase anger in your attitudes instead of your allowing Me to adjust your attitude and guide you to make peace with everyone.
The teachings on attitude adjustment by Jesus Christ are some of His most valuable teachings because your attitudes can have dire consequences if not adjusted to think My thoughts which bring life instead of the devil's thoughts which bring death.
My teachings through Jesus Christ to you on attitude adjustments are for your good and will benefit you if you follow what He said to do.
You defeat evil every time you allow Me to adjust your angry attitudes and you make peace with everyone. The apostle Paul later took it even further and said that you should not only love and pray for your enemies but do something good for your enemies. Paul knew that your preparing something to give to your enemies causes you to have an attitude adjustment in itself because your thoughts are adjusted to think kindly while preparing a gift for an enemy. You reject anger and take on kindness when you determine to do something good for a person for whom you have previously entertained anger. (Romans 12: 16-21) Your gift giving tenderizes the attitude of your enemy toward you as well as tenderizes your thinking toward the person. In My Instruction Book called the Bible everything is covered relating to attitude adjustments. I know the importance of attitude adjustments.
