ENEMIES WITHIN

ENEMIES WITHIN
Matthew 10 vs. 36 says “And a man’s foes shall be they of his own household”. Peradventure you are surprised why a man’s foe are those of his own household don’t be; they are enemies within. They monitor a man’s progress, rejoice, celebrate, mourn and sorrow with a man. Enemies within are green snake under the green grass; they are in all families. It is not possible you are loved by all, it is normal to have friends and foes. Joseph’s brother were his enemies within, he told them his dreams; but they were mad at him; they ensured he was sold into slavery and waiting to see how his dreams will come to past. These are the activities of enemies within, many have been wasted by enemies within, I pray GOD delivers you from enemies within and around you. Joseph was sold into slavery, faced and passed a lot until GOD arose and fought for him. When you are under the captivity of enemies within you will be frustrated and will be in hardship. You need to break yourselve from their captivity.

                    However, the Israelites had an enemy within their land. His name was king Eglon; he ensured the Israelites paid annual crushing taxes to him for the next eighteen years. Until the Israelites cried to the Lord, He then sent them a savior called Ehud. Ehud was the man chosen to carry Israel’s annual tax money to the Moabite capital. He strapped a double edged dagger eighteen inches long and hid it in his clothing, when he get to King Eglon, he plunged the dagger deep into his belly and King Eglon died. Afterwards the land was at peace for the next eighty year. You are not at peace, until your enemies within dies or repents from doing you harm. The bible says “there is no wisdom nor counsel, nor understanding against GOD”. If you are for GOD he will be for you. When a man’s way pleases GODD, he makes his enemies be at peace with him. Also, if GOD be for us, who can be against us? Enemies within cannot be against you, if you are for GOD. It is well with us!!

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY Integrity is a word which means steadfast adherence to a strict moral or ethical code. It also means the quality or condition of being complete and pure. It could also mean honesty, uprightness, purity, sincerity, decency, virtuous and wholeness. To retain is to keep in possession and maintain something. Many a time people find it difficult retaining their integrity. It takes determination to stand on your integrity. Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. GOD is a lover of men of integrity. Daniel 1 vs. 8-9: But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. Now GOD had brought Daniel into favor and tender love wi...

WORK ON THE WORD 2!

WORK ON THE WORD 2! David knew the essence of working on GOD’s word. He wrote in Psalm 33 vs. 4 (NIV): For the word of the LORD is right and true, he is faithful in all he does. He also hid GOD’s word in his heart that he might not sin against HIM. Psalm 119 vs. 11: Your words have I hidden in my heart that I might not sin against you. Storing GOD’s word in our heart and doing according to it is working on the word. Keeping GOD’s commandment is working on his word. Proverbs 7 vs. 1-2: My sons, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with you. Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of your eye.               Furthermore, working on GOD’s word is being the hearer and doer of the word. James wrote in James 1 vs. 22-24:  But be you doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer; he is like to a man beholding his natur...

AN OUTCAST

AN OUTCAST An outcast is one that has been excluded from a society or system. He is labeled a beggar. He is an outsider. An outcast is a person that lacks care. An outcast is neglected and overlooked. He is demoralized. He is wounded in heart. He is labeled whom no one cares. He is one that has lost hope. He is one who is frustrated and dejected. He is one who is always deep in thoughts and sorrowful. He is one who lives like a foreigner in his own land. He is one who is distressed. He is one who gets dispossessed of his possessions. He is one who is perplexed. He is one who is troubled on every side. He is one who is despair. He is afraid of tomorrow. CHRIST came that we might have a restored hope. He came to bare that burden of ours. He came to give us that expected end. He came that we might have peace. He came that we might be healed . Isaiah 53 vs. 5: But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and w...
