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!!

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...

HE THAT COVERS

HE THAT COVERS To cover is to hide and to conceal. A man cannot be wiser than his Maker or Creator. GOD is our Maker; He molded us and formed us into what we are. He is the Potter, we are the clay. Jeremiah 18 vs. 6: O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? Says the LORD. Behold, as the clay is in the Potter’s hand, so are you in my hand O house of Israel. GOD sees all and His foolishness is wiser than man’s strength. 1 Corinthians 1 vs. 25: Because the foolishness of GOD is wiser than men, and the weakness of GOD is stronger than men. A man that covers his sins prospers not; but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy. Proverbs 28 vs. 13: Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper, but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy. Cain was a tiller of the ground; Abel was his brother and was a keeper of sheep. Cain brought fruits of the soil as an offering to GOD, Abel also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat; which the...

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...
