Don't Be The Judge.



"Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust." - John 5:45.

When a brother or sister walk in error we have a responsibility to caution or correct the individual (1 John 5:16) in love, and not judgmental.
We don't have the authority to judge; judgment is God's office and it belongs to Him alone.
Let's look at Moses; Moses had a call upon his life to take the children of Israel into the promise land.
We know he saw the land but, did not enter into it. Mind you, this was his purpose. So what happened?
In the book of Numbers 20:1-12 an incident occurred that changed everything. The children of Israel were complaining about "no-water" there have been series of complaints earlier. But this angered Moses greatly. After Moses and Aaron had enquired from the LORD, God said to Moses "speak ye unto the rock before their eyes" instead "Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock twice:" the instruction was to speak to the rock, but he was upset with them so smote the rock and said "Hear now, ye rebels;". Here we see he is calling the children of Israel rebels. But, what is Moses doing at the same time? The same thing rebelling. How you may ask? He was ask to speak to the rock, not hit the rock.
In Romans 2:1"Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things." we may not have acted rebellion in the same way, but there are many things we have both done and still doing wrong that we probably didn't know how, as we ought.
This was the case of Moses, so in Numbers 20:12 the Lord said to Moses "...therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the land which I have given them."
After this incident Moses pleaded to God allow him go over to the promised land, it didn't work out for him, though he saw it, but didn't enter into the promised land.
So we see the reason why he probably was accusing the children of Israel before God, because they provoked him to act rashly and because of that error, he was denied entrance into the land.
You may be faced with such situation today, please don't be a judge.
We must have missed it at various point, thank God for grace. We must not continue in this error.
Have a fruitful week, God bless you!

SETTLED SOUL

  Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 1:2 The state of one's mind [ soul ] determines his/her place in destiny. In life people are forced to bow to pair pressure or any other kind of pressure when they don't have a stable mind, or let's say the person have identity issue.  When Satan tempted Christ Jesus on His way from the wilderness after forty days prayer and fasting, what was the first question he asked Him? "if thou be the Son of God" if Jesus had had identity issue, he would have fallen for temptation in the view to show off, as a result lost His place and purpose. Knowing fully well that God had said, "... Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased." Lk. 3:22. Before embarking on the wilderness expenditure.  When you know who you are in the Word of God and are established in it; you wouldn't bow to the pressure of the world, because you see things differently....

SPIRITUAL KNOWING

  But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spake against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming. Acts 13:45 In life you will face some vicious attacks from people, their reasons may seem reasonable to many [natural minds]; but their real intent, concealed. From the above text, observe the real reason the Jews were contradicting what the Apostles had said. When they saw the multitudes, they became envious. But they wouldn't come out to show their real intent; but will work up something else as the main reason.  This is why as a Christian, you can't allow yourself to be limited by the things you see, hear or feel, because they can be deceptive. The Holy Spirit is the revealer of truth, let Him guide you into all truth.  "For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy." Mark 15:10 Go beyond the physical, and sense realm. Go spiritual [there's a spiritual knowing].  Jesus is Lord!  Mark Enah...

PROSPER

 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 1:2. The mind consist of one's will, intellect and emotions; which is the soul of man. At salvation the spirit of man; which is also referred to as the heart gets quickened or made alive (But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible,... ) 1 Peter 3:4  The heart is saved, the soul is not. You [we] have a duty to save our soul; and it has to be done through studying the word and meditating upon the word, that's when the transformation of mind/soul begins. Romans 12:2  "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your MIND, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." As you spend more time in the Word of God; like a mirror you beginning to see your true identity from it. This is the reason we are admonished to study the Word of God. Satan knows this, so he tries...
