TODAY’S TOPIC: Don't struggle to satisfy the world
Text: Matthew 12:22-32 (NIV):
"12:22. Then they brought him a demon-possessed man who was blind and mute, and Jesus healed him, so that he could both talk and see.
12:23. All the people were astonished and said, "Could this be the Son of David?"
12:24. But when the Pharisees heard this, they said, "It is only by Beelzebub, the prince of demons, that this fellow drives out demons."
12:25. Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them, "Every kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and every city or household divided against itself will not stand.
12:26. If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then can his kingdom stand?
12:27. And if I drive out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your people drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.
12:28. But if I drive out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.
12:29. "Or again, how can anyone enter a strong man's house and carry off his possessions unless he first ties up the strong man? Then he can rob his house.12:30. "He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters.
12:31. And so I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven.
12:32. Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come."
*SHOWER:*
A man has been sick, deaf, dumb and blind joined without help. Then, help came from Jesus who healed him. Instead of people to be happy that he was healed, they begun to attack Jesus by calling Him unprintable names. You can now understand why you shouldn't try to please anyone. There is nothing you do that will make them happy. Follow Jesus and obey His instructions; not those of other people.
*PRAYER/DECLARATIONS*
God, I thank You for speaking to me today. Help me to internalise and put them to action in Jesus name, Amen.
*1. O God, I will forever follow Your instructions not those of men. I hereby receive the power and strength to abide by them in Jesus name, Amen.
*2. I am an overcomer. I have overcame the evil forces that want me to obey them alone in Jesus name, Amen.
*3. I hereby decree and declare that today is my day of supernatural favour and grace In Jesus name, Amen.
