SAME TRICKS

 

But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.

Revelation 2:14


One of the greatest agenda of the enemy against a right standing believer, is to try to lure them away from their arena of protection and provision so he can afflict them. But as long as they'd (believer) remain faithful to the things of God, the enemy knows they're out of his reach. 


Matthew 13:25 says, 

"But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way." 


This is how it works, Balaam knew that the Israelite couldn't be cursed in their righteous state, but because his eyes was fixed on the reward promised him by Balac. He taught Balac ways to go around it. 

He told Balac that the only way he could overpower the Israelite is if God withdraw from their midst. And for that happen they have to smear themselves by engaging in immoral vises such as worshipping of idols, fornication, stealing etc., things that goes crosswise to the commandments of God; that's outright disobedient to God. 


So, Balac pretended to be friends with the Israelite, with ulterior motive to ensnare them (Israelite), hence cunningly introduced them to all manner of ungodly lifestyle, which drove away the presence of God from their midst; as a result they were afflicted and defeated in many instances, won is some cases when they repented. But their ungodly lifestyle couldn't be completely eradicated from amongst them anymore its become a stumblingblock between them and God in many ways. 


It is the same trick today, it hasn't change. Most of the addictions people struggle with today, were sown in those moments of vulnerability by those pretending to be friends, but influenced by a demonic force. Be it a nation or an individual. 


I pray that God open your eyes to see the unfriendly friends around you, and the root cause of the challenges in your life today, and the grace to apply God's instruction for your triumphant living in Christ Jesus, receive it today, in Jesus name! God bless you! 


Jesus is Lord!

The Needful or Obvious Pt.1

And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her. - Luke 10:41-42. Nobody just happened, we are created for specific purpose. Everybody cannot be head, or leg, or hand etc., each and everyone most identify their place and stay there, thus makeup the body system. The leg cannot say the hand is not performing its functions adequately, as a result, he will take its functions over. The leg would be led by the obvious and abuse its own purpose instead, why? He was not created to perform the function of the hand. When these things are properly understood, it will help us to gain speed towards the fulfillment of our purpose. Everyone will give account of his or her stewardship, when the time comes, what will be your report, when all that you have been doing is the obvious(somebody else's assignment), and ignoring yours or ...

He Is Risen!

There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. Romans 8:1 Why seek the living among the dead? He is no longer in the grave, He is risen! Hallelujah!!! Jesus triumph over Satan, and handled you and me the victory, like we did it. Are you in Christ Jesus? You're no longer numbered with the dead. You're now alive and separated unto God in Him. Jesus did it just for you, therefore let no condemnation temper with your joy. Jesus is Lord!
