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....

BE RESOLUTE

  For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. John 6:38 If you need to, you may; examine yourself and see, can the above statement be true of you or about you? Because in life you will face obstacles and challenges that will press and push you to extreme limit or out of measure to a breaking point [in despair of life, according to Apostle Paul]. These things happens in other to make you change course; but stand thou resolute.  Jesus said, persecutions will arise for the Word sake.  In Matthew 26:39, Jesus was praying "... O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt." While on the cross, Jesus cried out, "... My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"  Well..., the Father didn't go anywhere, but the heat of the situation(s) make it look that way.  Enroute the promise land, there are a lot of obstacles; there is nothing easy about it. Sure the Devil makes it d...

Extremely Blessed!

A gift is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it: whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth. – Proverbs 17:8 If I could give you a gift this Christmas, the Word is what I'd give you. I'd rather give it to you than a check for a million dollars. Because you can run through a million dollars real quick, but the truth of God's Word never quits—and it will get you out of situations a million dollars can't get you out of. Ken and I are just ordinary people. But when we latched on to God's Word, we latched on to something out of the ordinary, something that changed our lives. Every area of our lives. Nothing that's happened to us has happened because of us. It's happened because of God's Word. In fact, I don't even have to know you to promise you this: If you'll give God's Word your full attention—and not be afraid of His will for your life—you're going to be happier and more prosperous than anything you could ever dream up. O...
