OUR DAILY MANNA DEVOTIONAL BOOKLET FOR CHAMPIONS
DATE: THURSDAY 9TH APRIL, 2020
TOPIC: THIS 21ST CENTURY WITCHCRAFT!
BASIC SCRIPTURES: (GENESIS 39:7-14; JAMES 4:11)
A wise man once said: “If you must hate people, hat them alone. Don’t recruit people to hat them with you. That’s Witchcraft!” Get an imaginary description of what happens in witchcraft covens:
A member brings the issue of someone that offended him/her and then proceeds to solicit for others to join their hands and powers together to kill the person.
Without any investigation to confirm the veracity of the claim, they proceed to terminate and kill the person using mystical powers.
This is a vivid illustration of what witchcraft is all about especially in the African setup. The summary of what happens in witches’ covens is just mobilizing others to hate someone that you hate!
This was what Mrs. Potiphar did in Genesis 39! Vs. 13-14 says: “And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and was fled forth, that she called unto the man of her house, and spake unto them, saying, ‘See, he (her husband) hath brought in a Hebrew unto us to mock us; he came in unto me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice.” LIE! LIE!! LIE!!!
She lied against Joseph! But note the words: “…she called unto the men of her house.” Instead of fighting Joseph alone, she recruited others to join her! This is PURE “WITCHCRAFT” and you must avoid it! Stop gossiping about others! Stop announcing their faults! If you cannot say anything great about anybody in their absence, JUST ENDURE and KEEP SILENT!
As for you, no matter what you hear about others, you must never look at people through other people’s lens. STOP JUDGING PEOPLE BASED ON WHAT YOU WERE TOLD ABOUT THEM! Find out yourself (Our 2nd scripture)!
Yes! Avoid jumping to hasty conclusions because of what others are saying about someone else. What people say about others, says a lot about them. I am repeating this more directly: The things you say about others, says a lot about you! I can tell a lot about a person by what they choose to see about others.
I have been BORN AGAIN FOR ABOUT 45 YEARS! And I have come to notice that Character assassination is a destructive phenomenon that is found everywhere in the Body of Christ. You find it in families, churches, organizations, work places, etc. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines it as the slandering of a person usually with the intention of destroying public confidence in that person.
Wow! There are some people that will just HATE YOU for NO REASON! Your appearance, you spirit, YOUR LIGHT or anything about you will always irritate their DARKNESS! Once they realize that hating you isn't working, they start telling and spreading lies about you. People are assassinated once but Character Assassinated kills daily!
Someone once said, "A friend of my enemy is my enemy." That may not be true always! You need discernment to know who is your enemy!
But always know this: One of the things that hinders us from living a fulfilling and inclusive life is bringing past bias and sentiments into present relationships. A friend of your enemy is not necessary your enemy; God can use your enemy's friend to bless you! Pray now!
PRAYER POINTS: Take any song of worship as led.
1. In your own words, pray over today's word as led now.
2. Pray about the DON'T above now as led.
3. Repent from any area in which you have been wrong! Pray about today as led now.
