SURVIVING COSMOS

(LOVE FOR THE TRUTH)

2THESSALONIANS 2:10-12








It is not everybody that comes around you that wants to hear the truth, some are looking for what to use to nail you. 


JESUS during His earthly walk always know this, so He doesn't go about spilling the truth to everybody. 


Sometimes He just keep quiet or say something not straightforward to further confuse them. 


The level of opposition Jesus faced from those that didnt want the truth in His day but were always around Him required a high level of godly wisdom for him to survive in the midst of cosmos.


Elisha and Micaiah at some point told people what they wanted to hear, not the truth until the people really pressed for the truth they now told them the truth. 


We see the possibility of God being a lying spirit to a people who have no love for the truth, 2THESSALONIANS 2:11


Whoever told you truth is cheap? It is not. It comes at a cost of having the love for truth. 


That you know the truth does not always mean you should say it when the people are not ready for it or does not have a love for truth. 


In your learning it is important to know when to say the truth, sometimes keeping quiet is the ideal because people have spoken the truth and it has cost them  their lives. It is not cowardice it is wisdom. 


God never intended it to be so, if only they have learnt the difference between when to keep quiet and when to say the truth. 


Not everybody is ready for truth and if you speak truth when the people are not ready it could be very  costly. 


Truth is only revealed to those that love truth. 


You can continue in a strong delusion calling lie the truth where as it was not so and God will do nothing to change your stand.


Infact, He will give you reasons to be grounded in that lie because that is what you chose to believe, Romans 1:28.


It takes love for the truth to know the truth. 


Many thinks because Jesus is the truth, He goes about saying the truth everywhere He goes. 


There were places, He remained silent no matter how much people gorged Hm to talk.


He refused because He knew the people were not ready for the truth or it is plainly not just the right time or place or atmosphere for the truth, they are only looking for a scape goat. 


He knew all men and what was in men and he didn't commit to them despite that they believed in him, John 2:24.


You will be a fool to committ to all men just because they believed in you, you must knew what is in men before you commit to them. That is how to play safe. 


JESUS played safe while He was on earth that was why he didnt die before he was ready, John 7:1-11.


Truth can be a sword in the hands of people to kill you when they are not ready to receive it, Acts 7:54-59


There are times that it is wisdom to say the truth and there are times that it is wisdom to keep quiet.


It was truth that beheaded John the baptist because He spoke a truth to a people that has no love for truth when he should have kept quiet, Mark 6:18.



He has no business dying that way at all but speaking the truth at a wrong time when he should have just continued looking on was what killed him. 


There are some truths that you know but it is just none of your business to say it.


No wonder the Apostles requested for the people to pray for God to deliver them from evil men for not all men have faith, 2Thessalonians2 3:2.


That you know the truth does not mean you should always say it, silence sometimes is the best answer for a people that have no love for the truth. 


Truth plus right timing equals wisdom and life, but truth plus a wrong timing equals foolishness and death and sometimes God allows both but we must be discerning to know what he wants to do at everytime. 


This was why despite that they looked for Him to kill him they could not find him until he was ready to die, they couldn't use anything to catch him, John 7:34.


When He was being led to slaughter like a lamb he opened not his mouth yet He knew the truth all.along He just didn't say anything.

PRAYER: FATHER GIVE ME THE WISDOM THAT I NEED TO SURVIVE COSMOS.


SALVATION PRAYER


Anything short of you being born again and living a life of holiness and purity hurt Jesus so much. But you can make things right here and now by saying this simple prayer and mean it genuinely from your heart:


 Lord Jesus I come to you today. I acknowledge that I am a sinner and I cannot help myself. I repent of all my sins and I forsake them. Jesus, I invite you into my life, be my Lord, be my Saviour. 


Wash me by your precious blood, forgive my sins and write my name in the book of life. From this day, I promise to follow you all the rest of my life. Help me Lord, in Jesus name, Amen. Congratulations you are now born again!


PEACE

LESSONS FROM THE SHIPWRECK  Acts 27&28 Sometimes God brings about deliverance painfully slow. He seems to take all His time. It is because what God wants you to get out of that situation is far more than just being delivered.  Sometimes what you come out with is not just the testimony of deliverance or promotion, an anointing comes upon you on the other side of it.  It is not just an affliction, it is also your test. So instead of God bringing you out at once, He makes you walk through the length and breath of the situation and then brings you out on the other side. If you can get and sustain God's perspective on any situation the problem is 50% solved.  You can't enter the house of a strong man and spoil his goods without first binding the strong man, Mark 3;27 You are a strong man and satan cannot spoil your goods without first binding you and his first weapon for binding people is fear.  He uses fear to paralyze people. It is his chiefest weapon, Hebrews 2:15 If God can

THEY THAT BE PLANTED Psalm 92:13&14 Sometimes in life we hurry and move from place to place only to find out we have never really left one spot.  But atimes we remain in one physical location for long, only to find out that we have reached the world even from that one spot.  The Bible talks about being planted in one spot and from that spot the shadow of your branches will spread and cover the hills and mountains and you will spread your boughs and root to the seas and rivers, Psalm 80:8-11. The blessings of God are not place dependent they are His will dependent.  People keep making that mistake over and over again and till tomorrow they will keep making it but you can exempt yourself from that statistics. You cam be in one spot and kings of the earth will come and meet you in that one spot and bring you out, that is the description of a man God is working it.  People will seek out the grace from wherever it is hiding whether in the wilderness, desert or bush.  They remain at thei

GAINING MASTERY OVER CHANGES IN TIMES AND SEASONS Genesis 8:22 Spiritual seasons comes to an end as well as Natural seasons. One thing you must learn early in your walk with God is flexibility. Flexibility and alignment goes hand in hand. This is why...... God is dynamic (John 3:8), life is dynamic and we should also be dynamic.  Seasons change but a Christian that will live above the changing times and seasons is the one that has the flexibility to be evolving above the demands of the times and seasons.  God doesn't change but He moves and his strategies and methods change from time to time to match the changes in times and seasons.  That you are moving doesn't mean you are changing. Change and movement are two different things entirely.  In the minds of many it means the same thing especially where God is concerned.  Sometimes the changes in times and seasons are caused by demonic orchestrations and marshalled as attack against our spiritual life, Exodus 5:7 The victory lies
