It’s a wonderful day to be a child of God. Have you ever had your name and character abused by someone? Out of wrath, someone spread false statements about you and your family. Because of jealousy, people began to lie on you. With hopes of destroying you, the enemy started using old friends to break you down. Have you ever told someone what the Lord said but they attempted to rebuke and scorn you? Since they did not believe what you were saying, they gathered others to take their side. Now everyone is trying to rebuke you in stead of receiving the Word God gave you. When was the last time you had family and friends smile in your face but talk behind your back? While you were together, everyone praised God for you and your willingness to serve others. When you separated, the same people used the same tongue to speak against you. Have you been there? Are you there now?
This morning, I have been commissioned to come and minister to you. I encourage you to remain faithful to the assignment God has charged you with. I rebuke the spirit of quitting and depression that has attempted to hold you bound. The Lord has chosen you for this time and this hour. You must understand the enemy desires to hinder you from obeying the will of God. My friend, Do Not Allow Others To Speak Evil of You! The Bible declares in Romans 14:16 – Let not then your good be evil spoken of: You have a purpose to fulfill for the kingdom of God. The Lord has invested great things within you. Do not allow others to see you living contrary to the Word of God. Do not allow the enemy to lead you in the path of unrighteousness. Let others, especially family and friends, know you can be counted on. The Bible declares in 1 Peter 3:16 – Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.
My brother, my sister, Do Not Allow Others To Speak Evil of You! Do not allow others to think of you as a hypocrite. You are God’s child. You are anointed to work for the kingdom of God. You are designed to be a vessel for God’s use. The Bible declares in Ephesians 2:10 – For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. Beloved, let your speech and your walk compliment each other. Others are watching you. Many will only see the glory of God through you. Do Not Allow Others To Speak Evil of You! Child of God, let your praise be honest and your worship sincere. Do not allow others to question the Word of God because you misquote it. The Bible declares in Psalms 37:23 – The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in His way. When others look at you, let them see Jesus in you. Prayer for Today: Father, I realize you have chosen me for a great assignment. Help me to live and to speak according to Your Word. Let others see You in me. In Jesus’ name … Amen!
