KEY SCRIPTURE: John 8:3 KJV” And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,”

I have noticed some group of persons talking among themselves, yet when an unknown person passes by, they make very bad comments about him or her. I ask why won’t people mind their own business? There seem to be a tendency to condemn others in most people.

Whiles the master sat teaching, some men brought a woman, and put this woman right in the centre of them. They spoke in unison, saying, this woman was caught in the very act of adultery. (The question is, does a woman commit adultery alone?) Why did they leave the man and brought only the lady to be stoned? They added that Moses stated in the law that such people should be stoned. Then they asked the Lord, what does He say about that? These men did not only come to condemn the woman, but to find a fault or grounds of accusation against the master, so they could kill Him.

Why would men want to condemn and hurt their fellow men? Such people are under external influences. Ephesians 2:2 KJV” Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience”: There is a power that would want to afflict others with pain, shame, and death, and they find some people to serve their purpose.

There are some Christians who have given themselves to such tendencies. Right in the midst of a church service, they would be speaking negative about their fellow Christians. They accuse and slander others.

Well, dear child of God, you are born of love and are the righteousness of God. The Spirit in you bears the fruit of love, which manifests itself in joy, peace, gentleness.  longsuffering faithfulness. goodness. meekness, self-control. Any other lifestyle is very strange to you. You are a lifter of men. This is who you are. Refuse to use your tongue to put anyone down. You do not cause pain rather you are a healer of pain.

CONFESSION

I am a lifter of men. I am an extension of the hand of God on this earth. My mind thinks well of all men, and my tongue encourages the weak. My heart is filled with a sincere love for everyone, for I am born of love.

THOUGHT:  VOW NEVER TO USE YOUR TONGUE TO PUT ANYONE DOWN.
