Throughout the scriptures, God’s people are commanded to do good. What exactly is this “good” that we must do?
We do what good we can, in every season of life with every little deed. Jesus sees and knows what his churches are doing, how brightly our lamp stand is shining, or the lack thereof.
Jesus went about doing good and healing, and we must be like our Lord if we are to receive His blessing.
Here are a few examples of the "good" we should be doing:
-paying taxes, obeying laws of land, rulers
-marriage roles, love, nourish, cherish, honor and love, submit, respect
-faithful and diligent worker / employee
-parenting diligently training children in fear of Lord
-giving generously and cheerfully
-abounding in deeds of kindness & charity continually
-feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, hospitable to strangers
