  • “Receiving Bad Advice”

    Numbers 13:32
     So they gave the Israelites a bad report about the land which they had spied out, saying, “The land through which we went, in spying it out, is a land that devours its inhabitants. And all the people that we saw in it are men of great stature.

    “Listening to poor advice can be catastrophic.”
    – Bishop, W. F. Houston, Jr.

    Beloved, have you ever given out or received poor advice? Was it too late when you recognized it was incorrect? When we don’t know what to do, we ask for help from people we believe in, people we feel that have experienced some things in life, and from people living a good life and have quality understanding. Listening to poor advice can be catastrophic. In our passage this morning, the Israelites sent twelve spies to explore the land of Canaan. Ten of the spies gave a terrible report, and it upset the hearts of the people. Panic spread, and they rebelled against God!!! What we see here is popular opinion doesn’t necessarily prove always to be true. As a result, the givers of antagonistic reports and the people were not permitted to see nor enter the promised land, and they died in the wilderness trying to get to Canaan.

    Beloved, this is an excellent example of why it’s important to be conscientious when taking advice and giving it. It’s not a bad idea for us to ask God for discernment and wisdom before opening our mouths. God is omnipotent and knows what’s best for us. Amen? ✝️❤️😊
     
    Let Us Pray
    Dear Heavenly Father, we stand before You with humbled hearts asking You to help us make sound decisions. Lord, please give us sound judgment and wisdom. In Jesus’ name, I pray Amen and Aaamen.
     ✝️❤️

    Have a Happy Monday and a “WONDERFUL” Week Everyone. ✝️❤️😊
  • “Slickness and Deceit”

    Mark 14:1 (AMP)
    It was now two days before the Passover and [the festival of] Unleavened Bread, and the chief priests and the scribes were searching for a deceitful way to arrest Jesus and kill Him;

    Beloved, the religious leaders were persuaded that Jesus had to be eradicated. They felt His message was too revolutionary. His influence was dangerous. They concluded that they needed to “kill Him.” Eliminating Him would require incorporating “deceit.” The Greek word here suggests they would try to bait Him by being slick “sly” – use trickery (scamming).

    His enemies used different kinds of tricks to trap Him into saying things they could use against Him. They tried to distract Him and confuse Him so He wouldn’t achieve His God-given objectives.

    People in the world still try to find different ways to trick Christians. They resort to deceit and craftiness, trying to throw us off track. They try to make us confused and discouraged. They want us to become engaged with inside issues that will weaken the unity of our faith, our commitment to God and His Kingdom. If possible, they want us to abandon the work of evangelism, discipleship, and events God has blessed us.

    Beloved, if you are a follower of Jesus, you’ll face slickness, and deception. People will try to confuse, deceive, and trick you.

    They’ll try to bait you with their traps. They’ll try to distract you, lull you to sleep, or silence you completely.

    If you’ve encountered trickery, slickness, deceitfulness, it’s time for you ask God for direction and to help you be aware of the deception and slickness in the world. Do not give in, but trust in Him. Fill your mind with His Word and learn to be more receptive to His Spirit. And be ready to act and stand for truth. Amen? ✝️❤️😊

    Let Us Pray:
    Dear Heavenly Father, give me discernment to recognize slickness and deceit. Help me stay focused on Your truth and Your mission for me.
    In Jesus’ Mighty Name I pray, Amen and Aaamen. ✝️❤️😊

    Have a Blessed Monday and an Awesome Week Everyone. ✝️❤️😊
