TURN FROM EVIL
BREAD
14 Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.
Psalms 34:14 (NIV)
27 Turn from evil and do good; then you will dwell in the land forever. 28 For the LORD loves the just and will not forsake his faithful ones. They will be protected forever, but the offspring of the wicked will be cut off; 29 the righteous will inherit the land and dwell in it forever.
Psalms 37:27-29 (NIV)
11 Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil but what is good. Anyone who does what is good is from God. Anyone who does what is evil has not seen God.
3 John 1:11 (NIV)

HEART SAVOR
• I have a choice to do evil or good. Sin is not to be my master.
• God loves those who are just and righteous, those who consistently choose what is good. He does not forsake the faithful.
• I am called not to imitate the world rather the Lord – to walk as Jesus did.
