Topic: DEALING WITH OFFENSE
Bible Reading: 1 Samuel 26:7-23, John 7:19-23.
The Holy Spirit said to me sometimes ago, that; YOU'RE NOT RESPONSIBLE TO GOD FOR WHAT MEN DO TO YOU, YOU'RE ONLY RESPONSIBLE TO GOD ON HOW YOU RESPOND BASED ON WHAT MEN HAVE DONE TO YOU.
We have to learn this great lesson from the response of David to King Saul during his trial for the throne. For no reason, only because David assisted the army of Israel to kill Goliath, he suddenly turned out to be a criminal, was treated like a man who has committed felony, all because of the envy and jealousy of Saul. As a result of this David became a fugitive in his father's land. On one of these occasions David had an opportunity to take revenge on Saul when he was in the cave by killing him, if he had killed Saul this will avail him the opportunity to put end to his fugitive experience which would have given him peace of mind, and would have also hasting his enthronement as the next king of Israel.
Despite all these, David preferred to allow those benefit to go, rather than getting them under the canopy of the spirit of offense. His servant also moved him to kill Saul, but he said I shall not lay my hands against the anointed of God. This was the reason why the coup of Absalom against David could not succeed, if David had killed Saul, Absalom would have killed David too, for what a man sow shall he also reap.
We all need to learn from this great lesson on how to overcome the spirit of offense, that no matter how anyone has wrong or offended you, learn to forgive and let go, for forgiveness brings healing, deliverance, and it removes obstacles away from a man's path in life.
One of the major test that Satan will bring to you and you must pass, is the test of the spirit of offense. Offense is a great thing in life, it's a major barrier to divine moves, it offense that cut off the head of John the Baptist, with all the anointing on his life, his head was removed by the spirit of offense through the hand of Herodias. If anyone wrong you, do not allow it to stay, forgive and let go, so that you will not put stumbling block on your way by your own self, and also never alow offense towards God, feeling like he disappointed you, God has never disappoints anyone and is not going to start with you. I pray for you today that spirits of offense will have no place in your life, and it will not take your head off in destiny in Jesus name.
Prayer Point: Pray that God will get rid of the spirit of offense, unforgiveness and bitterness away from your life, and baptized you with the grace and Spirit of forgiveness in Jesus name.
