BETRAYAL

The betrayal of Brethren in the Body of Christ is influenced by the devil - deceiving the human mind with religiously misguided beliefs, makes greedy hearts who are not in the Spirit, yet are placed in strategic positions of authority, feel insecure once a faithful servant of God becomes fruitful in his Christ's Calling. This reveals jealousy, which brings up opposition towards the graceful manifestation of God's work.

Furthermore, this also instigates the persecution of the Body of Christ by oppressors, who "take counsel together against the LORD and against His Anointed," even assisted by familiar friends whom we trust and dine with (Psalm 2:2 & 41:9). Still, we need not worry nor be afraid of satanic schemes, because the trick being revealed, is to use separation from witnesses; rather, we should remain courageous to testify, for the LORD our Elohim is with us, wherever we go (Joshua 1:9). Let's stay in the light, assembling all the more with Christ's Family, who does His Father's will, and be a Friend like Jesus, who would lay down one's life, praying for all believers.

PRAYER: In Jesus' name, Dear LORD, the Defender of the Righteous, I exalt Your Name, for whenever the wicked come against me to eat up my flesh, because of Your Word, while we can come to you for strength to stand, they must always fall by the sword intended for Your Anointed (Psalm 27:2)

Amen!

From Luke 22:2-6
