Wronged

When we are wronged we can feel it to the core of our being with great emotional and psychological pain.  A turmoil of undisturbed emotions can erupt if we haven't dealt with them. Complacency and denial can help us cover over those painful happenings, unfortunately that usually opens us up to addiction.

Numbers 5-6; “Say to the Israelites: ‘Any man or woman who wrongs another in any way and so is unfaithful to the Lord is guilty and must confess the sin they have committed.

The Bible is quite clear when is says that we are to deal with our junk.  We're supposed to take ownership for our own and hold others accountable for theirs.  It's interesting that it says "unfaithful to the Lord".  I guess that just confirms that whatever we do to others, we are also doing it to our maker.  Oops!!

As we are able to read this, it means that we still have time to deal with our junk!!

False Teacher

Addictive behaviour always gives away a persons deepest desires!  Sometimes people claim to be Christian but the debris they hang onto pollutes whatever they try to convey.  Their mouth says one thing, but their actions scream "compulsive disorder".  You usually can't tell them anything to try to correct them, you will only be hated for it.  Sometimes the best thing to do is to wait it out.

Prov 14:29 - Whoever is patient has great understanding, but one who is quick-tempered displays folly.

Some however will thank you for your correction.  These are the ones who are finished with pride & self-preservation.  They have given their life to Christ and those things no longer control them.  That's how you tell one from the other.  Without knowing it, they have become a false teacher!!

Speaking

When we cannot speak honestly to others, when we have to orchestrate scenarios for others because we don't have the courage to talk to them directly, we open ourself to demonic possession. A Christian cannot be possessed unless there is an element for a demon to hang onto; pride, greed, unforgiveness, fear, the law, judgement, etc. 

When a person is controlled by an evil spirit they display unusual behaviours that cause them to act out in selfish, condescending ways. There is no equilibrium in their thinking, they swing completely outward attacking others and on the defensive, or completely inward with self condemnation, avoidance, and defeat.


Leviticus 19:18  “Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against anyone among your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the Lord".

 If we do that, then our focus is on the Lord's will and not centered on our self.  Then satan is helpless and defeated.

Waiting

There's nothing more aggravating than waiting for something.  Waiting seems to be a cornerstone of our life here on earth. Very, very things come instantly, and if they do they are usually not what we expected in the long run.  Unless they are a gift from God; to which we have prayed for, or God has purposes more in line to touch someone else that we can't see.

There's also a bad time to wait too long, when you need to decide something that could be life-saving, like our life after death.  Do you know where you are going after you die?  Are you still sitting on the fence waiting for more information? There's a story in Matthew 25 that tells about 10 maidens waiting to meet the Bridegroom, 5 were wise and filled their lamps with oil and 5 were foolish and waited too long to get oil for their lamps.  Only the 5 wise prepared ones were allowed in.

Luke 17:24 tells us how Jesus returns; "As the lightning flashes across the sky and lights it up from one side to the other, so will the Son of Man be in his day".

There will be lots of Joy and Sorrow on that day and we have the option to choose which one right now!!

Time

It's a hindrance when you can't wait, it's precious when you want more, an annoyance when you're in trouble, and a blessing when you're on top of the world.  Time never changes speed, I mean it's consistently accurate and methodically precise.

When you finally realize how much time you've wasted on addictive behaviours, you're heart broken.  Just when you get your act together you have the opportunity to look back at a path of destruction in your life.  We feel bad but maybe we shouldn't.

Job 35:8 "Your wickedness only affects humans like yourself, & your righteousness only other people."

You've learned valuable lessons in life, some things that others can never realize on their own. Once you understand that with every hurt God can put to good use in shaping others. By knowing this we can finally see victory in the troubled areas in our thinking.

Blog Trouble

It would appear that Blogspot is working on eliminating the blogging service as there are hundreds of users having the same trouble with their email-out program again, as well as the whole service is now manual.

Guiltless

If we don't know that anything we are doing is wrong then we are guilt free.  Being held accountable of something that we didn't know was wrong seems unjust and unfair.  But just because we didn't know at the time doesn't mean it isn't wrong in the eyes of others.

John 9:41 Jesus said, “If you were blind, you would not be guilty of sin; but now that you claim you can see, your guilt remains."

God shows us what we have done in the past and allows us to decide for ourself if our actions are acceptable in the eyes of God, or not.  God doesn't punish us but allows the results of our actions to govern us individually. Negative people will feed off of our bad behavior & positive people will feed off of our positive behavior.

Everything we do, God gives us the freedom and opportunity to choose wisely or poorly.
