I Want To Do Right
But

In America today we can look and see a BACKSLIDEN AMERICA. Jesus is on the outskirts in practically everything America. There is no prayer at home, school, or in some churches. There is no reverence for God, no pure worship, no praise, no glory, and no reward, on HELL FIRE.

We are at the mercy of the preacher or shepherd, after the message when the spirit departs. He or she then becomes an ordinary man or woman again. They are worldly shepherds in other people’s matters. Can you trust your matters in their hands? They are gossipers, mess makers, full of confusion, backbiters and all the time working on the church next meeting agenda. The lack of God’s spirit reigning in America’s heart has caused a lot of people to want to do, but they have no power to keep them doing what they are suppose to do.

Want in America should not be that we are in want for food, clothing, or shelter, but want is lacking in the spiritual things: in that the power, that keeping power of the Holy Ghost has departed Zion.

I Corinthians 10:3-6, for though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh.

For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God, to the pulling down of strongholds.

Casting down wicked imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.

And having a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your disobedience is fulfilled.

James 4:1
From whence come wars and fighting among you? Come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members.

I Peter 2:11b
Abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul.

How many times do people confess that they want to do right? But; it is always some excuse as to why they cannot do what it is that they know they should.

I want to do the right things, but. Doing right, what is that? Doing is the action, performance of a deed, activity, or effort. Right means to be just, morally or socially correct, true, not mistaken, good, proper, legal, lawful, honest, ethical, and fair, effort of what is just.

How many times in our lifetime do we say I want to do the right thing; but. There is always a but behind what we do. What we are saying is that nevertheless, however, on the other hand, on the contrary, except; other than; otherwise than, without the result that, introducing emphasis, repetition where we imply something is coming after.

So many people use excuses for what they do not do. They know the right things to do, but for some reason or the other, they rely on an excuse for not doing right. This is not only regarding moral practical things, what’s right and wrong in behavior conforming to a standard or established order, but socially.
