If you seek validation, exaltation, to be a man-pleaser, or even to believe every word that comes from a man’s mouth, you are in for a rude awakening. You will walk down the yellow brick road, and it will end badly for you fast. What did Jesus say?
But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues;” Matthew 10:17
Be aware of men, God says. A man/woman can tell you; you are the problem when they know they are problematic. Men will tell you that you are not good enough when they see you are more than enough.
Beware lest any man spoils you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.”Colossians 2:8
Beware, Lest any man spoils you. When you think about spoil, what do you think about it?
Diminish or destroy the value Or quality of. I wouldn’t want to spoil your fun.”
People who lie and say you are not enough or what you project isn’t enough, what you sell, what you say, what you do, isn’t pleasing to them, you know what they could be doing? Destroying the value and quality of your being because, for some reason, they don’t want you to feel that you are good enough; they want to diminish your qualities by saying that what you project needs improving, but in reality, they are jealous. In reality, they are mean, hateful, and unsatisfied with their own lives, and they seek to destroy yours. But guess what? They keep coming back!
They seek to destroy your confidence in God through Christ because they see the rays of prosperity and success that you move through, and they don’t understand how can you do this thing and they can’t.
Now I’m not telling you this to retaliate or make yourself feel better than anyone because many virgins of the last days can walk upright because they trust and obey the Lord.
The Lord is the one that gets the glory Here, not us. He is the lion of Judah, He protects, and he gives. He makes success. He makes the seed grow.
And we receive from him anything we ask because we keep his Commands and do what pleases him 1 John 3:22
Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets Are gone out into the world. 1 John 4:1
The narcissist will make you feel you are not good enough. But they keep coming back. They stay in your circle; they buy your product yet constantly complain. Yet they don’t show you the love you show them.
Is it I you ask God like the disciples asked Jesus when He said, one Of you will betray me tonight? The betrayal sat silent. What is that telling you? The human carnal mind will conceal within it that you are good, but they are a traitor. Beloved believe, not every spirit.
They will spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world,
People can know that you are good. But they want to take the purity from you by the rudiments of the world because they are jealous of your kingdom walk.
They want to prove that you are evil just like they are evil. So they try to get under your skin to cause you to transgress God’s laws.
By the way, the word rudiment means basic and principles. In other words, whatever purity you have, they will suggest the principles and the basics of how the world lives to try to destroy your innocence.
Beware of men, God says!!! They will spoil you. Some will exalt you like spoiling a child just to talk about you or to laugh at you when they see that they’ve buffed up your head.
Men lie to get over you and to steal from you. Men will lie to hurt you to benefit themselves. Men lie to make themselves feel good because they are worthless in their saggy sight, and they think you are worth it. And they see God working in your life. They are jealous because they see God working in you, and they can’t understand how this Is happening in your life?
Beloved, be aware of men. And beloved, If you are the one who is causing havoc in people’s lives, I suggest you repent because it will not end well for you, my friend. God can give you peace. God can redeem you and put you on the path to redemption, but if you continue this path, you will destroy your own self. And those of you who are striving in God’s kingdom, you keep on striving, you keep on trusting, and you keep looking to God to overcome and maintain your virgin kingdom walk in Christ. Don’t believe everything That comes from man, but go to God. He is all nothing.
