The Top Fifteen Things that Destroys the Purpose and life of Mankind (3)
Loved one in Christ
Jesus, I believe you are growing in the Lord. This is lesson three on my
teachings, the top fifteen things that destroy the purpose and life of
humankind. In lesson one, I explained that the love for money and the lust for
power limit men and women not to fulfill their purpose in life.
In lesson two, I
explained that abnormal sexual intercourse barricades the purpose of men and
women. In this lesson, I will unveil to you one of the deadliest invisible
weapons the devil uses to limit the purpose of humankind.
The Tongue.
Our tongue plays a vital
role in our lives. Our tongue expresses our hidden thoughts. Our tongue creates
an invisible image in our minds. The words we speak can generate blessings or
curses. Our tongue is sharper than the sharpest sword in this world.
Any word that comes out
from our tongue affects our soul (will, emotions, desires, and intellect). In
the beginning, God created the world and all living things with His tongue (the
Word). Our tongues are full of creative forces. Our tongue can activate the
spirit of fear, hope, faith, calamity, and death.
Nothing happened in the
beginning until God spoke. When God spoke, His Words created. The tongue (Word)
of God created tangible things from the invisible realm. If the tongue (spoken
Word) of God could bring life, then our tongue can also bring life.
God cursed the ground
when Adam obeyed the voice of Eve. When Adam obeyed the voice of his wife, he
disobeyed God. Because of Eve’s disobedience, God cursed her and her offspring
with sorrow in child delivery and desire for the man.
God cursed the serpent
(deceiver) with war because of his wickedness. All these curses came from the
tongue of God. If God's tongue could activate curses, and God created us in His
image, and after His likeness, our tongue can also activate curses. The holy
scripture states that our tongue can activate death and life.
Proverbs 18:21 KJV
If our tongue can bring
life and death, then we must know how to use it. People are living in bondage
because of their tongue. Some people have invited curses into their lives
because they used tongue unwisely.
Herod made a mistake on
his birthday because of excessive joy. The daughter of Aristobulus (Herodias),
one son of Mariamne and Herod the Great, pleased the Roman leader (Herod) in an
event Herod hosted. Herod promised (made an oath with his tongue) Herodias
anything because she danced to his satisfaction.
Herodias went to her
mother (Aristobulus) and enquired from her mother her request from the king.
Her mother told her to demand the head of John the Baptist. Because Herod made
an oath with his tongue, he couldn’t reverse it. He had to fulfill his promise.
Herod ordered his men to cut the head of the prophet (John the Baptist) because
he couldn’t control his tongue. You can read for yourself.
At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,And said unto his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead; and therefore mighty works do shew forth themselves in him.For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife.For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.But when Herod's birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod.Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask.And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John Baptist's head in a charger.And the king was sorry: nevertheless for the oath's sake, and them which sat with him at meat, he commanded it to be given her.And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.And his head was brought in a charger, and given to the damsel: and she brought it to her mother.And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried it, and went and told Jesus.
Matthew 14:1-12 KJV
Herod assassinated a
great prophet because of his tongue. Our tongue is a powerful weapon. Use it
wisely. God stroke Miriam with leprosy because she spoke against Moses. The
scripture records.
…Touch not mine anointed,
and do my prophets no harm.
Psalm 105:15 KJV
God is saying that no man
on earth should touch His anointed vessels and do no harm to His prophets. Let
us search for the Hebrew and Greek meaning of the word, “Touch” from
Mickelson's Enhanced Strong's Greek and Hebrew Dictionaries.
Lay the hand upon, to lie
with a woman, violently stop, to strike, punish, defeat, destroy
KJV: beat, bring (down),
cast, draw near, get up, join, plague, reach (up), smite, strike,
touch.
This means no one should
destroy, strike, punish, or deceive an anointed vessel of God. Don’t
intentionally use your temporal influence, power, leadership, wealth, and
tongue to destroy God’s anointed vessel.
Get this right. Some
people think God’s vessels are ordinary. God cherishes His anointed and
prophets, so don’t open your big uncontrolled poisonous tongue against God’s
anointed vessels if you know nothing about them.
Intentionally speaking
against God’s anointed vessels and prophets activate the curses of God. I
believe you know what happened to King Saul and his family, Judas Iscariot,
Absalom, Jezebel, and other wicked people who touched God's anointed and
prophets?
The reason most people
cannot advance in life is because of the tongue. Most people cannot control
their tongue because of carnality. After filling their belly with all kinds of
food, they open their big mouth to speak against God's anointed vessels.
Repent now because God is
about to send his judgment on you and your family. People use their temporal
power and limited resource to destroy God’s vessels because they have
connections. You may speak against organizational and public leaders and go
free but not against God's anointed vessels and prophets. The fact that you
have the right to express yourself does not mean you have the right to insult
anointed ministers of God.
Be careful you don’t
bring curses on yourself and generation. The people who planned to destroy
Daniel ended in the lion’s den. Maybe you have been insulting God’s vessels
ignorantly. God wants to set you free from destruction.
Repent and make
restitution. If God opposes you, who can defend you? Never think you can
destroy God’s vessels and go free. It is a seed you have sown. Repent now and
amend because you have put your life and your family in great trouble.
You have violated the
Word of God. Repent from such behaviour. I am not promoting ministers of God
who violate the Word of God. We must expose and rebuke false leaders who
disguise as ministers of God. Make sure you are led by the Holy Spirit before
you embark on this journey. If a faithful minister of God does something that
contradicts the Word, pray for the person, and talk to the vessel.
If you have destroyed an
anointed minister of God with your tongue, amend it. If you have spoken evil
about an anointed minister of God to a group of people or a friend, return to
that channel and confess your sin.
As far as the world is concerned, people will speak against us. Be joyful when people speak evil about
you. Some people may falsely accuse us. Don't become bitter because great is
our reward. It is unscriptural when all men speak well of us (See Luke 6:26).
Blessed are ye, when men
shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against
you falsely, for my sake.
Rejoice, and be exceeding
glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets
which were before you.
Matthew 5:11-12 KJV
These are the words of
Jesus Christ; we must be joyful when people speak evil about us. Don't be
silent when people issue curses on you. Reject curses by declaring the Word.
One of the signs to know whether we have great rewards in heaven is that people
will speak evil about us. As far as we serve the Lord, insults will come from
the mouth of serpents, wolves, and scorpions (unbelievers and religious
unbelievers). Meditate on these scriptures.
The words of a man's
mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.
It is not good to accept
the person of the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment.
A fool's lips enter into
contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes.
A fool's mouth is his
destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.
The words of a talebearer
are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
Proverbs 18:4-8 KJV
Divine Key: God has
hidden your destiny in your tongue. Keep
it with all diligence, and you will become successful in life.
