Knowledge to Live Long
Apostle (Prof) Johnson Suleman
BIBLE READING:Â 2 Kings 13-15
TEXT: “And there came thither certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium, who persuaded the people, and, having stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing he had been dead.” Acts 14 :19.
OFM Rhema For Living 20 April 2023: As a believer, you are a spiritual Jew. Paul was a Jew and our anchor text reveals that certain Jews like him conspired with the enemies to kill him. Meaning, his own people secretly planned with others (the enemies) to kill him.
To live long therefore, there are certain to truths you must have at the back of your mind. The first is that destiny-attackers are always unexpected people. Satan will not use a stranger to attack you because a stranger does not know you well.
Judas and Jesus were first cousins. Judas knew Jesus in and out. For him to have kissed Jesus meant that there was some level of relationship between them. Anybody can shake your hand, but not Evey person can kiss you. Judas did not shake his hand; neither did he hug him, he gave him a kiss.
Kissing is a sign of oneness and love, but someone was using a sign of love to communicate hatred. So, there are killing kisses.
He said, ‘I will kiss him as if I am showing love to him, but by that, I am betraying him’ Also in 2 Samuel 3 :26 – 27, Abner, a warrior, died like a fool dieth because he fell for the deceptive reception of Joab a secret enemy.
Scripture says, and when Abner was returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside in the gate to speak with him quietly, and smote him and there under the fifth rib that he died…”
Main attackers are close, stop looking afar off. When you want to know what is wrong with you, first of all, look inward. “…a man’s enemies are the men of his own house.” Micah 7 :6.
I pray for you, the wisdom of God will preserve you.
PRAYER: My Father! My Father! As I begin to pray, every secret enemy around my life and destiny, be exposed by fire..
