'So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.' Matthew 7:12 Pray Jesus Christ.
Introduction
How to pray to God effectively!!!. How many people think about this verse? To start to do our analysis, let first to think that there are 10 Commandments. Jesus Christ gives us another Commandment more short and easy to remember. That Law is from the ten Commandments. This is the base of the relationship between God to human and human to human. Because of the difficulty of life actually, few people only have time to consider any Holy verses in the Bible. Today, I choose to talk about ''do to others what you would have them do to you''. The Lord Jesus said that this verse is ''for this sums up the Law and the Prophets''. It is one of the condition of powerful prayer topics.
Did you ever think one day that any action you do to the others, your neighbor will do that to you back in future? To be a real Christian, we need always to be careful about our thinking and our action to the others. We have to think always that if we take a decision to act, that will be benefit for people. To give always the best to our neighbor is always our target every day. In Psalm 15:2-3, it is clear that 'The one whose walk is blameless, who does what is righteous, who speaks the truth from their heart; whose tongue utters no slanders, who does no wrong to neighbor, and casts no slur on others;' Learn how to pray effectively to Jesus Christ.
The Benefit
What is the benefit to do so? The only one who gets benefit from 'do to others what you would have them do to you' is in Psalm 15:1. You 'dwell in ...sacred tent...live on ...holy mountain...' of our Father. That means that we will live and reign with God forever if we always follow the Law: to love our friends. Learn how to pray effectively to Jesus Christ.
Of course, to be a real Christian is a real challenge every day. People respect Christians who respect the others. I mean to 'do to others what you would have them do to you'. But the problem is many Christians don't follow the God's Law. And they live like anyone who do not have God. So how people react when they saw a Christian steals or kills someone or cheats? That is really not a way that Jesus Christ wants for his followers. But many person do that now. They said they are Christians but their actions are scandalous. Their actions are totally in opposite of ten Commandments. Then, the reaction of the others are directly to blame all Christians. Only few people did wrong and all Christians are putting in the same basket. If we look to the history of Christianity, we can find many scandalous actions happen. I take example of the history of the Knights Templar.
Conclusion
Then you breakthrough your prayer for all situation. Keep your faith to Jesus Christ alive. Being a Christian is a huge and holy Name that we have to be proud. And don't forget to think what people want from you. As Christian, You are the hope of the society where you live, that is why you 'do To Others What You Would Have Them Do To You'. To follow the Christ, we must love God, and people together. Don't hesitate to share this Good News. How to pray more effectively to Jesus Christ!!!
