DO NOT FOLLOW THE MULTITUDE TO TWIST JUSTICE.


By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi 

“You must not follow the crowd in doing wrong. When you are called to testify in a dispute, do not be swayed by the crowd to twist justice." Exodus 23: 2 

  "And he spake unto the congregation, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest ye be consumed in all their sins." Numbers 16:26

   One of the challenges pastors are faced with while praying for persons in a crowd is that of being able to distinguish who to pray for and those that need outright repentance from sins before they can be healed (James 5:6)

 It is common to see certain persons move from one so-called 'deliverance ministry' to  another in search of a so-called powerful man of God to pray for a so-called stubborn situation . 

    In reality the anointing and the anointer is the Holy Spirit and he is not more in one person and less in another . He is the same everywhere. The problem is that of having faith for without it is impossible to please God.

   You cannot walk in faith and at the same time be fighting against God's word. Faith comes from hearing God's word. God's word forbids a believer in Jesus Christ from being party to any group of individuals plotting to twist justice in the courts for their selfish gains.

    It says to avoid persons who are swift to shed innocent blood through violence in the pursuit of selfish gains. The scriptures says  

Genesis 9:6 "Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man." and Proverbs 1:16 says to avoid persons who's feet hasten to shed innocent blood. " the spiritual consequences for members of that group of Christians or non Christians is Proverbs 1:26-28  " I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you. Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:" 

  These persons will be tormented with fear of destruction ( evil foreboding) and suffer terrible delays in  answers to prayers. This is why they move from one so-called 'prayer ministry ' to another . 

   Having an object of such a person in your possession is an invitation to terrible crisis . 

In our daily prayers we should ask the lord to protect us against evil enticements . 1 Timothy 6:11 "But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness."

Prayers: Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I accept him as lord and saviour and receive grace to overcome temptation . Amen.

BREAK EVIL FAMILY PATTERNS

Image
 By Rev.Michael Benson Ajayi  Titus 1:12 -14 "One of themselves,   even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians   are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.  This  witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply,  that they may be sound in the faith;  Not giving  heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of  men, that turn from the truth."       The church in Crete was in disarray and the apostle assigned Titus to go and put things in order . On investigation it was discovered the church suffered from a vicious cycle of evil family  patterns. They were not enjoying the fruits of the salvation experience . An example of evil family patterns is that of King David who defiled Uriah's wife ,murdered him and his son Absalom murdered his brother Amnon (2Sam13) dethroned him and defiled his concubines openly (2Samuel16). His son Amnon defiled his sister Tamar (2Sam.13) and so on yet David was the anointed of the Lord.     Many christians suffer evil family patterns ( repeated d

CONSEQUENCES OF LACK OF FAITH

By Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi " Be careful then, dear brothers and sisters. Make sure that your own hearts are not evil and unbelieving, turning you away from the living God." Hebrews 3:12 NLTBible  ' Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and look at my hands. Put your hand into the wound in my side. Don’t be faithless any longer. Believe!”John 20:27 NLTBible     Faith is the guarantee of the manifestation an unseen reality . It is the reason behind the hope we have in God and the fulfilment of his promises. It is the substance ( title deed) of things hoped for ,the evidence of things not seen (Hebrew 11:1) .The Bible warns against not having faith in God. Lack of faith is equal to calling God a liar and untrustworthy. This type of reasoning turns us into enemy's of God.    The gospel is so much under attack by the activities of faithless religionists . They plan to replace the holy scripture with humanistic dogma. The danger in this is the relative approach t

COMMON CAUSES OF DISUNITY.

Image
 By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi "Even some men from your own group will rise up and distort the truth in order to draw a following."Acts 20:30 NLT   "An angry person starts fights; a hot-tempered person commits all kinds of sin." Proverbs 29:22 NLTBible        Disunity is defined as : disagreement and conflict within a group. It is the greatest hindrance to the promotion of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Disunity creates an avenue for Satan to promote sin.       The causes of disunity are not farfetched ,they include : Unhealthy Crave for power or self- promotion. Whenever there is an unhealthy pursuit of influence in a family or group it results in resistance. Self-promotion gives birth to unfair practices and injustices. In Numbers 12: 1-15  Moses' sister Miriam and Aaron rebelled against him desiring to rule by force and in Numbers 16 :1-35 Korah led an insurrection against Moses desiring to be part of leadership. In both cases ,God was not pleased with the rebels
