NEVER FIGHT A RIGHTEOUS PERSON

NEVER FIGHT A RIGHTEOUS PERSON

 Proverbs 14:19
The evil bow before the good; and the wicked at the gates of the righteous.

Nothing boomerangs like fighting the righteous. God always takes over and flights for the righteous. 

It's for this reason, the Lord wants His people to be praying for their enemies. Many argue with the Lord on this. Don't join them. If you don't pray to shield your enemies, God's anger falls on them. So Jesus prayed to help those killing Him.

Luke 23:34
Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.

Even Stephen was able to help protect those killing him from the anger of God. Any willing follower of Christ can. You can.

Doing this helps makes a way for a Saul to become Saul, the servant of God. Do not block the future of sinners. Leave the door open for them to come to Christ. That is about sinners attacking the righteous.

There is the more terrible one - the righteous attacking the righteous. Yes, I mean one believer in Christ turning against a fellow believer. That is very common in our Country. I don't know if the situation is better in other nations. Fighting one another is utter foolishness. Is it Christ fighting Christ? It's one terrible act of not recognizing the body of Christ. 

1 Corinthians 11:29-31 (KJV)  For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.
For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.
For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.

How can Jesus fight Himself?

The person on the wrong side is an embarrassment to the Lord who told Saul in Acts 9 that he was persecuting Him.

Acts 9:5 (KJV)  And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

Saul was fighting human believers in Christ. He didn't know that he was fighting God, did he? Learn from him. Don't ever fight or even hate any of the followers of Christ. No, not even if he or she is your husband or wife.

What normally happens after believers fight one another is terrible. The.law in

Proverbs 14:19
The evil bow before the good; and the wicked at the gates of the righteous.

The law must apply. The wrong person must go down. He or she must go down because he or she must bow before the righteous.

Do not say that I have not told you. Never fight or even talk evil of a fellow Christian.

WISDOM FOR TODAYTODAY, 1st November SHUN EVIL OF CONSULTING WITH FLESH AND BLOOD

WISDOM FOR TODAYTODAY, 1st November  SHUN EVIL OF CONSULTING WITH FLESH AND BLOOD Proverbs 1:7 [7]The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, But fools despise wisdom and instruction. Shun Evil Counsel Paul learnt from Ananias and Barnabas. It was not that Paul was arrogant. What he meant here was that once he knew what God wanted him to do in life, he didn't go on again seeking human opinions.  I'm ashamed to confess that many points on my journey with Christ, I made the mistakes Paul was able to escape in his own walk with Christ. I want to speak out with prayers that some other persons in my shoes then would do better than I did.  In 1972, I was in form in Form two in a boarding school called our Lady of Schools, Anyigba, now in Kogi State, Nigeria. I had come in a year before. Though I was already going to the Catholic Church in my village before coming to the School, I had never met any true Christian, one who took his belief serious, till I got to School. Tw...

FIRST IMPRESSIONS - ALEX OGUH LIFE JOURNAL

13.5.25 FIRST IMPRESSIONS 2 - by Alex Oguh  Dreams have helped me greatly in this last few years that I began to give it attention. I wanted to write about dreams and I remember that I saw recently how a Christian group deleted a post I made about a dream I had and it's interpretation. It made no sense to them. So writing about dreams may not benefit many Christians unless the Lord first help me teach on HEARING GOD. Why? Everything about dream interpretation in the Bible is hinged on hearing God. See more on the matter tomorrow. ...TO BE CONTINUED

CHRISTMAS REMINDS US OF HOW TO INTERPRET THE BIBLE

Christmas reminds us of the mysterious and powerful ways the Bible works. The Bible speaks once, but we hear it again and again. As the Scripture says: “Once have I spoken; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God.” — Psalm 62:11 History moves like a wheel—turning, revolving, and returning. What God did before, He does again. Christmas is one of those events that keeps repeating itself prophetically. See: Luke 2:1-3 AMP [1] Now in those days a decree went out from [the emperor] Caesar Augustus, that all the inhabited world (the Roman Empire) should be registered [in a census]. [2] This was the first census taken while Quirinius was governor of Syria. [3] And everyone went to register for the census, each to his own city.  1. A DECREE THAT YOU SHOULD BE REGISTERED  At the first Christmas, there was an announcement— A decree went out that everyone should go back to their roots. Today, the announcement still goes out, not from Caesar, but from a greater King and not...
