You Never Know

You never know who you may be impacting for good, bad or evil. With all the main stream media HYPE, and those given to respond, even protect integrity, truth, and righteousness, you never know. It seems like a game of who to believe and that is done often times by our emotion or our OWN belief and agreement. However, repentance does not side with one man or another, not even one "cause" or another. It sides with righteousness and holiness, according to God, not our emotion, or feeling or belief. God is supreme and sovereign, and that is not open to debate, although many debate it. One struggling with sin is crucified or marginalized by one not struggling---with sin. Did you hear the pause. I feel it in my spirit before I ever accuse another...because Satan is the accuser, so who is my Father, I must ask myself. Does the accusation end with the accusation and a DEMAND to get it right, or a call to repentance to STRUGGLE till you are free and in that I can and will walk with you and we should walk together. We like to use the scripture from Amos 3 which says, "Do two people travel together without having so agreed?" (V3, Complete Jewish Bible). However, in context it is speaking of repentance, the call of God to a stubborn people and the call of true prophets walking in agreement with God. We also do not consider that Amos 3:3 is not the same as Ecclesiastes 4:10. Amos is speaking of God walking with a deliverance PROCESS where those walking with Him are in a state of struggle and repentance to overcome. If they are not and leave, then God does not take pleasure in their having left. He WARNS them, but if we warn no one, perhaps there is no impact...you never know the importance and purpose of a seed unless you plant it.

We speak of being "kind" and that love is "kind", however king David said, "Let the righteous strike me, let him correct me; it will be an act of love. Let my head not refuse such choice oil, for I will keep on praying about their wickedness" (Psalm 141:5 CJB). This is speaking of a love that confronts and tells me of my sin, perhaps hidden even to me, yet with a call of repentance and to walk in its struggle and process, with God. We shy from telling others of their sin...or ours. Does that mean we are not being kind or loving then...you never know. I would rather someone Tell ME and willingly walk WITH ME, rather than gossip (which has been done by apostles and pastors). Yea, me to, so even there you are not alone, BUT have you left or do you have no one to walk with you because of yourself? My pain may lead to expose the sin done to me, but it should also lead me into the face of God to not leave walking with Him, who accepts the broken hearted, abandoned and repentant. What would happen if you returned...to God...you never know. What if your testimony upon returning, whether immediately or after time affected and impacted MY life, or that of your friend, son or daughter, relative or someone you don't even know...you never know. AND...you never will if you don't turn/repent and walk with God again. They may never be impacted by anyone but YOU. Will you walk in agreement with God who knows all our failures, yet invites us to the walk process of repentance and deliverance because of His true love which king David had right. Though we may get everything right, remember Job whom God called blameless at the beginning and the end of his ordeal...still repented, because before SEEing God, he had faith because he HEARD of Him, but when Job SAW God...he confessed and repented, coming into agreement with God through his confession of sin and his repentance to walk and trust God again...

Take time to review commentaries when you read the scriptures above. Here is a link and you can follow from there. I ask myself, have I made any impact for the kingdom of God...and still, I never know, but maybe...at least, now you can and will.

Love is the answer, repentance is the call.
