  1. Who is this a Wisdom Bible church?

  2. The Church of a distant Christian narration?

  3. Our topic is still Lessons of Friendship, Lessons of

  4. Friendship, and we are taking the 7th study and the particular

  5. focus for today is the cost of misplaced trust in friendship is

  6. going to be the third Sunday now or the third session wherein our

  7. focus has been on the subject of trust.

  8. But for today, the particular focus is the cost of misplaced

  9. trolls in friendship. But it's also so good if we just

  10. write it and by that connects with where we stopped last week.

  11. Of course, last week one of the major high points that I made

  12. was the recommendation that love must be tested before you taste

  13. it. You recollect that I made very

  14. strong emphasis on that principle that love must be

  15. tested before you taste it. And this is more so because any

  16. relationship that filled the test of trust must not be

  17. allowed to grow into friendship. So that test we are talking

  18. about is the test of trust, not the test of sex for young people

  19. that are into romantic relationship.

  20. So any relationship that filled the test of trust must not be

  21. allowed to grow into friendship. And this is more so because

  22. nothing destroy a man more imminently than he misplaced

  23. trust. When you say something is

  24. imminent, something that certainly must happen.

  25. Something that certainly must happen, that is something that

  26. is imminent. So nothing destroys a man more

  27. imminently with more certainty than he misplaced trust.

  28. I mentioned also in the past that trust is an emotional

  29. capital. Trust is the emotional capital

  30. you bring to invest into social contracts, is the capital your

  31. brain to invest into social contract called friendship.

  32. So trust is an emotional capital that is too expensive to be

  33. invested where it will be disappointed.

  34. Trust is so powerful and influence that one will not be

  35. wise to invest it into a social contract where it can be

  36. disappointed. So trust is an emotional capital

  37. that is so so too expensive than to be invested where it will be

  38. disappointed. Why?

  39. Because the outcome of the victim is always too difficult

  40. to cope with. When you invest trust into a

  41. social contracts and eventually it is disappointed on the part

  42. of you that invested trust with sincerity of purpose.

  43. More often than not, it is always very difficult to cope

  44. with the outcome of a disappointed trust, but

  45. certainly if misplaced trust will be disappointed.

  46. So it is you now that must guide properly, watch properly, be so

  47. careful, OK, Where you place your trust, upon whom you place

  48. your trust. What do I mean or how do I mean

  49. by misplacement of trusts? We need to understand that

  50. misplacement of trust is that regrettable situation whereby

  51. you accommodate a potential enemy as friend.

  52. So my definition of misplacement of trust is that regrettable

  53. situation whereby you accommodate a potential enemy as

  54. friend. I prayed in the name of Jesus as

  55. I have always prayed for you, that you will not mistake

  56. deception for deception. You will not accommodate into

  57. your destiny perimeter and is seemingly friend that actually

  58. is an enemy in the name of Jesus.

  59. You can also consider misplacement of trolls as that

  60. situation whereby you are served or tested advice and you use it

  61. to take decision that you will later regret.

  62. That's misplacement of trust or proven advice.

  63. Sometimes advice that is not genuine but you are subject to

  64. take decision that you will later regret and some of these

  65. decision could be irreversible and their consequences can be

  66. irredeemable. If you fall 15 of any of these,

  67. it means you have misplaced your trust.

  68. I pray for you again in the name of Jesus.

  69. You will not invest your trust into a decision that you will

  70. regret. You will not invest your trust

  71. into a social contract that you will regret.

  72. You will not misplace your trolls into social control that

  73. will end up with bad consequences that are

  74. irreversible and irredeemable in the name of Jesus.

  75. So to still understand the concept further, you can also

  76. look at it from the angle of play into the gallery by

  77. following or by flowing with opinions of people that are not

  78. committed to your success. I'm still trying to elaborate

  79. and give description or definition to the concept of

  80. misplacement of trust and I'm saying it also.

  81. It could also mean you play into gallery by flowing with opinions

  82. of people that are not committed to your sources.

  83. You know, it's possible you are sincere, but the other person is

  84. not sincere. Are you with me?

  85. So are you the person that is not sincere with you is giving

  86. you advice. Are you are taking it seriously?

  87. So flowing with opinions of people that are not committed to

  88. your sources and are not concerned about your fear.

  89. You are the one that is dying because of them, OK?

  90. And they are not ready to lift the finger because of your

  91. matter. So if you now put the affair of

  92. your destiny into such time, you now discover that you have

  93. misplaced your trust. Am I talking to somebody?

  94. So what is my advice before we move into biblical examples and

  95. how we can take admonition from the error of some Bible

  96. characters? So beware of taking advice from

  97. people whose presence or goodwill is not good with you

  98. into your future. You are going into a glorious

  99. future. No power will stop you.

  100. You are fulfilling A glorious destiny.

  101. No demon will stop you in the name of Jesus, but as you

  102. prepare yourself to advance into the future, one of the greatest

  103. way you can help your destiny is not to take advice.

  104. Take cancer from people whose presence or goodwill is not

  105. going with you into the future. So somebody will not be part of

  106. your tomorrow. Are you with me somebody whose

  107. goodwill even if we will not be physically present with you in

  108. the future, whose goodwill is not ready to go with you to the

  109. future? Such kind of people are not the

  110. best set of people to take advice from.

  111. So this is the rule. If they don't have is take be

  112. careful of giving them AC over your affair.

  113. Anybody that does not have a stick, be careful OK of giving

  114. such a person is say over your affair.

  115. I want that to register very well.

  116. Can you talk to your neighbors say if they don't have a state

  117. be careful of giving them AC over your affair.

  118. It's very important because great number of us are quick to

  119. accommodate into our destiny. Perimeter people, we have not

  120. investigate their sincerity. Hello people, you have not

  121. investigate their sincerity. You bring them, you accommodate

  122. them into your destiny perimeter and then you lose God.

  123. You throw away all necessary caution.

  124. So if they don't have a stake, be careful of giving them AC

  125. over your affair. Then let me pause here and

  126. address young persons, particularly those of you that

  127. have strong presence on the social media.

  128. I have given this cancer severally but it appear not many

  129. people have given careful attention to it.

  130. So many of you that refuse my advice about sensible use of

  131. social media don't know. What you don't know is that some

  132. online advisors I just dare to catch form.

  133. Hello, why is online say education is a scam?

  134. Is processing is admission into Oxford University?

  135. Are you with me? So what many of you that reviews

  136. my advice about sensible use of the social media don't know is

  137. that some online advisors I just dare to catch form why some are

  138. merely there for the likes and comments to to swell their

  139. followers she on the social media.

  140. So they go there, they say everything and when some people

  141. who don't have a stake start to say nonsense on the social

  142. media, you allow them to have a see over the affairs of your

  143. destiny. They are moving forward, but

  144. they have destroyed your destiny because you have misplaced your

  145. trust. Am I talking to somebody?

  146. So when you do that, you are putting your life on the line.

  147. When you accept everybody you see online as authority on the

  148. subject they are addressing or marketing, so quacks will begin

  149. to speak like authority over subject that they know nothing

  150. about. Praise the name of the law.

  151. Some that did not even have a credit pass.

  152. In biology, they talk authoritatively about medicine.

  153. OK the speaker. Civil losses are talking.

  154. You are there. Put your confidence in them.

  155. Misplaced trust. So beware of those who are

  156. online to merely gain traffic. If you are careless to believe

  157. them, they use you to get traffic, but in the process you

  158. gain tragedy for stupidly believing in them.

  159. I have said it before and I'm repeating myself.

  160. The social media space is a market for the sale of both

  161. wisdom and fully. I also was called it a library

  162. without a Liberian. I also call it a messy store

  163. without a pharmacist. So it is fully to put your trust

  164. in the council of people that can easily walk away and not

  165. lose anything if they don't look back.

  166. It is fully on your part to put your trust in the council of

  167. people that easily walk away and not lose anything if they don't

  168. look back. So a man that is not connected

  169. to your condition will not be concerned about the consequences

  170. of your action. In that case, it's a

  171. misplacement of trust to miss out persons your confidence.

  172. Confidentiality is the soul of friendship.

  173. Do you know that a person you cannot trust with your secrets?

  174. OK, you can say such a person is a friend.

  175. So. And for a person to be worthy of

  176. your secrets, that person must be connected to your condition.

  177. That person must be concerned about the consequences of your

  178. action. If you don't check all of that

  179. and you just make somebody that's a stranger or somebody

  180. that is not sincere, you're confident you have so much to

  181. lose and it's not losing anything.

  182. So it's a misplacement of trust to make a person that is not

  183. connected to your condition or concerned about the consequences

  184. of your action a confidence. So misplacement of trust, like

  185. I'm saying, is an imminent disaster, a disaster that must

  186. happen. It is a time bomb that no one

  187. knows when it will explode. Misplacement of trust always

  188. come with negative consequences, and the destruction that comes

  189. through the era of misplaced trolls is imminent.

  190. If it doesn't happen quickly, it will still happen eventually.

  191. Will you rise on your feet as you take some of this prayer

  192. point before we advance? Rise on your feet.

  193. I pray for you that you prayed for yourself afterward.

  194. May the law give you the disarmament not to accommodate

  195. an enemy as friend in your destiny perimeter.

  196. In the name of Jesus, now you pray for yourself.

  197. Say, Lord, give me the disarmament not to accommodate

  198. an enemy as friend inside my destiny perimeter.

  199. Oh yeah, begin to pray in the name of Jesus.

  200. That is, you will not draw close to yourself somebody who will

  201. destroy you. Somebody will cause you damage.

  202. You will not draw such person close to yourself.

  203. Ask the Lord to help you, that you will not misplace your

  204. trust. You will not invest your trust.

  205. Into an enemy the law will grant you the spirit of disarming law

  206. to accommodate an enemy as friend inside your destiny

  207. perimeter. Talk to the law in Jesus name.

  208. We pray as we proceed in the study, we are going to see how

  209. Abel followed his elder brother to the thieves and he didn't

  210. return a life. Hello.

  211. He did not return a life. Lot.

  212. A lot of young persons have put their confidence in friends and

  213. their friends have sold them to the enemy.

  214. I pray in the name of Jesus, the experience of Abel will not be

  215. your experience in the hand of a friend.

  216. The experience of Abel will not be your experience in the hand,

  217. will not be your experience in the hand of Jesus.

  218. I pray for you. You will not escort a

  219. pretentious enemy as friend to the feed.

  220. You will not follow a friend to a feed.

  221. We are there will be no escape route for you.

  222. In the name of Jesus. Say Lord, help me not to escort

  223. a pretentious enemy as friend to defeat where there will be no

  224. escape route for me. We are prayed in the name of

  225. Jesus. Pray tennisly, pray tennisly,

  226. pray tennisly. Talk to the Lord, talk to the

  227. Lord, talk to the Lord. Discernment will guide your

  228. decisions. In the name of Jesus, in Jesus

  229. name we pray. In Jesus name we pray now, but

  230. for confidence. But for covenant that was upon

  231. something are you with me? But for the covenant that was

  232. upon something OK, there is not nothing wrong OK, if you follow

  233. his heart OK to choose a woman that he felt OK, he likes or he

  234. love are you are you with me? But for the covenant that was

  235. upon him, but it relax on the lap of Delilah.

  236. You know what eventually ended the story.

  237. So there's nothing wrong when a young man come of age.

  238. OK. And he decided that as also

  239. break the opposite gender into my circle of friendship.

  240. I start to think about let this relationship grow into one

  241. that's become a family. There's nothing wrong, are you

  242. with me, but for the covenant that was upon something that

  243. approved, that prohibited him from going to the camp of the

  244. Philistine. But there are people who don't

  245. go to the camp of Philistine, but yet they are regretting it.

  246. Am I talking to somebody? I pray for you.

  247. And then you pick it from there and pray for yourself and for

  248. praying that I have prayed for your children.

  249. You will not rely or relax on the lap of Delilah to his stress

  250. in the name of Jesus. We are praying in the name of

  251. Jesus. I will not rely or relax on the

  252. lap of Delilah to his stress in the name of Jesus.

  253. When some say relax on the lap of Delilah, it was easy stress.

  254. You know, it was a man of war. OK.

  255. He went out to fight and then he came back and he was relaxing on

  256. the lap of will be wife and the woman sold him misplaced pros

  257. in. Jesus name we pray, are you?

  258. Are you are we together? In Jesus mighty name we pray.

  259. Then there was this warrior that went to fight in defense of his

  260. nation. But in the process, when he

  261. discovered that he will not be able to conquer, he decided to

  262. run away. OK.

  263. And in the process of running a woman, I said, oh, I'm a

  264. general, can you can you call me OK And said I needed water and

  265. say OK water. Oh, I will give you more than

  266. water. I gave him milk and he dragged

  267. the milk he slept off. And that woman, the woman is

  268. called Jahe. You know the story.

  269. I pray for you. You will not drink me from the

  270. cup of Jaheel in Jesus name. Oh yeah.

  271. Prayed for yourself. Prayed for yourself.

  272. Prayed for yourself. Prayed for yourself.

  273. Prayed for your children, My children, my male children.

  274. We will not drink milk from the cup of Jair in the name of

  275. Jesus. Thank you Lord for answer

  276. prayers in Jesus mighty name we pray.

  277. Have your seat. So why are these prayer items

  278. essential? They are very essential because

  279. trust is a delicate assets. Trust is a delicate assets that

  280. must be invested thoughtfully and prayerfully.

  281. Trust is a very delicate assets that where you invest it, you

  282. must do so thoughtfully and prayerfully.

  283. Now let's consider examples of biblical characters that became

  284. victims of their misplaced trust.

  285. I have alluded to Ibn in Genesis chapter 4 is our first example.

    Genesis 4 chapter mention

  286. Ibn the second child of Father Adam only two brothers and 1 was

  287. bad enough to kill his younger brother over what?

  288. Because the young gawam appear to be having an edge over him in

  289. Genesis chapter 4 Abel only please trust on bloodline bonds.

    Genesis 4 chapter mention

  290. Hello. You know it's an easy thing to

  291. do. OK, Will you return home from

  292. school and your brother not even step brother, full blooded

  293. brother. We offer you a cup of water.

  294. You have doubt in your mind to drink it.

  295. You will take a cup of water and drink it freely.

  296. But the truth of the matter is that we have Blood Brothers who

  297. spite the drink of their brother.

  298. So Abel Wrangler plays trust on bloodline board.

  299. He did not leave to tell the story that bloodline board are

  300. no, I mean may not translate to genuine brotherhood.

  301. He was clubbed to death by his blood brother King Genesis

    Genesis 4 chapter mention

  302. chapter 4 and can't talk with Abel his brother the Bible

  303. didn't say I came fault is fault with eBay and his brother the

  304. Bible say he talked with him friendly talk gentle friendly.

  305. Talk. Not knowing that this guy had

  306. something else at the back of his mind for you parents in the

  307. house, I pray I want my own in the name.

  308. Of Jesus. I can't talk with him and his

  309. brother. So when your brother is talking

  310. with you, I say, let's have a day out.

  311. You have a doubt in your mind to follow him.

  312. You won't. And it came to pass when they

  313. were in the field that came rose up.

  314. But if you read the preceding verses, you will know that it

  315. was not a solid demo that came upon him in the feed.

  316. It was perfectly pre planned. He knew.

  317. That that was what he was going to go and do against his brother

  318. on the field. And when they were in the feed

  319. that came rose up against Ebel, his brother.

  320. And. Slew him.

  321. Why did Eben follow him? Trust.

  322. And the Lord said of the King, We are is able thy brother.

  323. And he said, I know no am I my brother's keeper?

  324. Put your mind on a typical African family life from

  325. childhood, OK? They will always put the younger

  326. one under the custody of the elderly 1.

  327. The fact that we will say pointedly, are you with me?

  328. So I'm a young man that grew like that, seeing his Big

  329. Brother as a sheep, seeing his Big Brother as his keeper, not

  330. knowing that he never to lay accepted that responsibility.

  331. Because they're going to say where is heaven your brother?

  332. I say my, my brother's keeper. It means all this while when the

  333. parents have been keeping heaven, all that is custody has

  334. been pretending. He never for once accepted that

  335. responsibility. Imoji Kimoso and said, What has

  336. thou done? The voice of their brother Blow

  337. cried unto me from the ground. That is at the family level.

  338. Let's go official and use the royal example, the kind that you

  339. may relate well with at workplace or in the general

  340. society. You will become great.

  341. I say you become great. You will not make a devilish

  342. colleague your confidence. You will not make an Elvis

  343. colleague your confidence. You will not open the secret of

  344. your destiny. To a devilish colleague in the

  345. name of Jesus, the one that will use the information you provide

  346. to destroy you, your servants. Iranska placed Strauss on royal

  347. kingsmanship. The nation Israel, the nation

  348. Judah. They came from the.

  349. Same backgrounds and Josephus was playing diplomacy not

  350. knowing that the king of Israel. OK, didn't care if he died, so

  351. he have tricked in to participate in the war where

  352. Joseph will have lost his life. Second Chronicle chapter 18 is a

  353. very lengthy story. Second Chronicle chapter 18, but

  354. we're going to take verse one and three and jump to verse 29

  355. to 32. We're going to take from verse

  356. one to verse 3 of chapter 18. They were going to jump to verse

  357. 29 and stop on verse 32. Now Joseph had had reaches an

  358. honor in abundance and join affinity with AI and join

  359. affinity with AI. We grow to a level.

  360. We started to go to close. We grow to a level.

  361. We started to play golf. Praise the name of the Lord.

  362. I pray that as a Joseph you will not enjoy affinity with Ahab.

  363. These two. And after certain years he went

  364. down to Hayab to Samaria, and Ahab keeps sleep and also for

  365. him in abundance. Now when somebody is giving you

  366. this manner of reception, you know, because you come to visit

  367. him and he calls all the friends, all the all the royal

  368. members of the house or the member of his cabinet, and they

  369. throw a dinner or a lounge for you.

  370. You may not suspect that this person has some other ulterior

  371. mochi. So he kills the Banosi for him

  372. and abundance, and for the people that he had with him.

  373. I'm persuaded to go with him to Ramogile, to join us with him to

  374. engage in a battle. Verse 3.

  375. And here king of said unto Joseph, a king of Judah, without

  376. go with me to Ramogile. And he answered him, after he

  377. has made him comfortable. I am as thou arts Okanen Niwa,

  378. very innocent thing, and my people as thy people, and we

  379. will be with thee in the war. So one thing left to another,

  380. but just about instead let bring a prophet of God to know whether

  381. we should go or not or not go. Praise the name of the law.

  382. But he didn't go into that engagement with discernment.

  383. You know, we have prayed about discernment.

  384. He didn't go into that agreement with what?

  385. With disarmament. I pray for you for every

  386. engagement, either with a friend or with a stranger.

  387. The law will help you to activate your disarmament in the

  388. name of Jesus. Eventually they went, but they

  389. have said before we go, we are going to do something.

  390. There's going to be a change of garments.

  391. You will. Wear my royal room to the

  392. battlefield. Only God knew what they have

  393. wore there. But you put the royal room on

  394. Jio Savas and when he was put in our royal room or Juba Saba, it

  395. will look like honor to Jiosabat.

  396. I am I talking to somebody and by the time they go there, let's

  397. read from verse 29, they go to the warfront and the king of

  398. this I said to Joseph, I will disguise myself and we will go

  399. to the battle, but put down on the rule.

  400. So the king of his head disguising said and they went to

  401. the battle. Now the king of Syria had

  402. commanded the captains of the chariot that were within save

  403. fighting not with small or grave save only the king of Israel.

  404. So here Joseph was the only one that had real robe on him.

  405. Are you with me? They have him say that had the

  406. battle to fight as disguise insane.

  407. Oh money go Hello. Are you with me?

  408. What's your son that why yourself?

  409. Let's say. So those who have that tendency,

  410. OK, to cause the trouble and walk away to not gain your

  411. trust. Verse 31 And it came to pass

  412. when the captain of the child saw Joseph that they say it is

  413. the king of history, therefore the compass about him to fight.

  414. But Joseph cried out and the Lord helped him.

  415. If you are put yourself into any situation whereby you will be

  416. destroyed the way God helped you survive, I pray that help will

  417. come your way in the name of Jesus.

  418. And God moved them to depart from him.

  419. For it came to pass that when the captain of the Chariots

  420. perceived that it was not the king of Israel, they turned

  421. back. Again from pursuing.

  422. Him that would have ended the life of Josephus.

  423. While we were praying, I also alluded to something.

  424. So it's our third example. Something wrongly, please.

  425. Is trust on infatuation. It places trust on what?

  426. Infatuation. One of the things that always

  427. demand our trust is our judgments.

  428. What do I say? They also demand our trust, our

  429. judgments. OK, You see that and you just

  430. feel that this thing is good. In your analytical mind you

  431. concluded that this is the way to go.

  432. I pray that the judgment that will lead you to trouble, you

  433. will not put your trust in it in the name of Jesus.

  434. So in that case he put his trust on infatuation.

  435. He entered a multi relationship to women that sold them out.

  436. Like I said earlier, confidentiality is the soul of

  437. friendship and the only thing that can keep you safe when you

  438. confide in people is well, your trust.

  439. Where your trust is reciprocated.

  440. Hello where your trust what reciprocated?

  441. So he place his trust at least on two women that were recorded

  442. in the Bible and the two of them sold him out.

  443. Something was betrayed by women twice in the Bible.

  444. The first time was by his wife from team.

  445. Now you know there was a time he killed a lion and upon his

  446. return he found only in the lion and then by the time he got to

  447. the camp of the Philistine, he made a redo about the lion.

  448. What is so on and so forth. And it kept that secret of what

  449. happened with the woman, but the woman gave him out.

  450. So the woman repeat yourself as this route to our people which

  451. eventually led to a conflict. Judges chapter 14, verse 15.

    Judges 14:15

  452. And it came to pass on the 7th day that is said unto Samson

  453. wife, and ties thy husband, that he may declare unto us the redo,

  454. lest we burn thee and thy father house with fire, as you call us

  455. to take that we have. Is it not so as Samson's wife

  456. wept before him? Hello, are you bury or any?

  457. Hello. Hello young man, I pray for you.

  458. You will not put your trust in a woman that we buy a weeping OK

  459. 'cause you to be the one that we weep last.

  460. AM I talking to somebody? And something went went before

  461. him. I said, Thou doors, thou doors,

  462. but hate me or Pharaoh me I love.

  463. Ask me, Lord, that has put forth they do unto the children of my

  464. people, and has not told it me? And he said unto her, Behold, I

  465. have not told it my father nor my mother, and shall I tell you

  466. thee, You know it was asking, having a check in his in his

  467. mind, but eventually he still made the wrong judgment and

  468. leaked out the secrets. And see where before in the

  469. seven days coping him out. Supposing a lot of who is that

  470. man? Even if you are made with steel,

  471. you will be broken because we are carrying flesh and blood.

  472. Well, what will destroy you is appealing to your flesh and

  473. blood. Your spirit will overpower the

  474. flesh in the name of Jesus. And it came to pass on the 7th

  475. day that He told her. They call selection upon him as

  476. He told the redo to the children of our people who whatever he

  477. will do Johnny and puts it in the hands of the enemy.

  478. Then we have the second and Morphet famous betrayal that

  479. came from Delilah would discover the secret of his train.

  480. I don't know why something also behave like that.

  481. What happened between him and the first woman in team now so

  482. suggest to him that he should be careful with Philistine women,

  483. but yet he's different. Fixing for the second time.

  484. Here is feel the secret of his strength to Delilah and Delilah

  485. handed him over to the Philistine.

  486. And of course, that was the final straw that proves the

  487. camel's bar. In the process he lost his

  488. power, he lost his vision and he lost his life.

  489. I pray in the name of Jesus you will not misplace your trust or

  490. confide in people that will lead to your destruction.

  491. In the name of Jesus you can read that story for time will

  492. not be able to read that one in Judges chapter 16 from verse 14

    Judges 16 chapter mention

  493. to 21. Then the one we are going to

  494. dwell on so much is the example of Amnon and Jonadab.

  495. Amnon and Jonadab in Second Samuel 13.

  496. I'm not wrongly Police trust in Jonadab's cancer.

  497. Jonadab gave him very wrong advice, only for the same

  498. Jonadab to later wash off his arm as if he had no hand in it.

  499. And of course that's devilish advice 'cause unknown both the

  500. Troon and his life. Who is this armor?

  501. Amnon. Who is Jonadar?

  502. The second Psalm, chapter 3, verse 2.

    Psalms 3:2

  503. You will find the identity of Amnon, the scriptures say.

  504. And unto David were sons born in Hebron, and his first born was

  505. Amnon of Elohim, the gestural lighter.

  506. So who is Amnon the first son of King David?

  507. And as the first born, the first son, he was here apparent to the

  508. throne of David. Then who is Jonadah?

  509. The same second Psalm chapter 13, verse 32, the Scripture

  510. says, and Jonadah the son of Simea Davis.

  511. Brother, can you see the familiar relationship I'm not

  512. the son of? David Jonadab, the son of

  513. David's brother. So before you blame Hamlo for

  514. taking cancer from Jonadab, first put yourself in the issue

  515. of Hamlo. Has he done wrongly?

  516. OK, for choosing is causing as his best friend, the son of his

  517. father's brother, he didn't go outside the family circle.

  518. He chose a friend, a confidant. And put trust in the council

  519. that he gave him and it's Euro Diva.

  520. Somebody. That is close to you that can

  521. cause damage to your destiny. You will not misplace your trust

  522. in such a person. In the name of Jesus.

  523. So he advised I'm not wrongly and we are going to read the

  524. story in Second Samuel 13 where I advised I'm not wrongly.

  525. You will notice that when the consequences of that carry out

  526. that advice and then the consequences of that advice, you

  527. will not see Jonah Dabb in the picture at all.

  528. So the advice is causing wrongly without being seen in the

  529. picture. The most unfortunate about it

  530. that will make you. Shiva is that the same area?

  531. Appear later. You appear what later as

  532. somebody better? You appear later as a

  533. peacemaker. Who was never part of the evil

  534. that I'm not committed. It's a very lengthy story, true,

  535. but I got to read the first 14 verses.

  536. No, it did not cover. The whole story, but it will

  537. give us an idea of what the story is all about.

  538. Then we're going to jump to verse 32 and 36.

  539. How is stage a comeback? OK and was more or less like

  540. blame me, I'm known. Are we together?

  541. Blame me, I'm known for what I'm known.

  542. Did we are asked It was the instigator.

  543. He was the advisor. The way I'm not took to his

  544. counsel is the same. I'm not will have taken to his

  545. counsel if he has given him a better answer.

  546. One tobacco dicio quota. Tobacco is your toba.

  547. You understand tobacco? Second summer 13 and it came to

  548. pass. I did from this one after this

  549. that I'm Salam the son of David had a fair sister whose name was

  550. Tamar and I'm not the son of David loved her and I'm not was

  551. so fixed that he first seek for his sister Tamar, you know in

  552. jail or door Odeba. I'm no, it was it was

  553. youthfulness. And I suppose this man Jonah was

  554. elderly. Hello.

  555. This man Jonah was what? Elderly.

  556. That was why he could look up to him for cancer, for she was a

  557. virgin and. I'm not thought it out for him

  558. to do anything to her. Listen, within I'm known he was

  559. having a check that no matter how much I am feeling towards my

  560. step sister, we are of the same blood.

  561. I should not do anything for me. So that was the struggle with

  562. him. If I would say he thought it

  563. hard for him to do anything to her, even if that kind of

  564. thought to rape the sister was coming to her.

  565. He was fighting that thoughts. Are you with me?

  566. If I would say he thought it hard for him to do anything to

  567. her, he was fighting that thought until Jonah bar appear

  568. and reinforce is lost that evil tendency in you.

  569. You will not join friendship with somebody who will reinforce

  570. it. Obama say to repair your council

  571. for pay my share. Or E Carlo de Loni consciously.

  572. I can't do it at. The end of the day.

  573. You went into the evil and that friend disappeared because Jonas

  574. and Jonadab disappeared. He did not only disappear after

  575. Hammond died. You know the RPI gay.

  576. OK, I'm posting like a good man. We're going.

  577. To see that. But Hammond had a friend whose

  578. name was Jonadab. I've taken you to go and check

  579. which where did he come from? It was a friend chosen from

  580. within the extended family circle, just as you can choose a

  581. friend in church. And that friend may not be a

  582. godly 1. The son of Senior's David

  583. brother and Jonadam was a very subtle man.

  584. And he said unto him, Why art thou being the King's son, limb

  585. from day-to-day without not? Tell me he was so concerned.

  586. And I'm not said unto him, I love Tama, my brother's sister.

  587. And General said unto him, Lay thee down on thy bed, and make

  588. thyself sick. When the father come here to see

  589. this, say unto him, I pray thee, let my sister Tama come and give

  590. me meat, and dress the meat in my sight that I'm a seed, and

  591. eat it as a hand, so I'm not lay down.

  592. I made himself see, following the advice of Jonadah, and when

  593. the king was come to see him. And I'm not said unto the king,

  594. I pray thee, let Tama my sister, come and make me a couple of

  595. cake in my sight, that I may eat at a hand.

  596. I pray you will not ask a script written by a friend that is sent

  597. to destroy your life in the name of Jesus.

  598. Then Davis sent home to Tama, saying, Go now to thy brother

  599. ammo house and dress in me. So Tama went to her brother's

  600. ammo's house, and he was knelt down, and she took flour and

  601. kneaded it and made cakes in his side, and did big decay.

  602. And she took a pan and poured them out before him, but he

  603. refused to eat. All these were the advice given

  604. to him by Jonah and Amos said half out all men from him and

  605. they went out every man from him.

  606. And I'm not said or to Tama. Bring the meat into the chamber.

  607. Hello. Can we pause and look at Tama

  608. here too? She was also a victim of

  609. misplaced trust. My stepbrother, come to my room.

  610. Will you blame that guy for not being suspicious?

  611. Same, Father. I pray for you, my dear

  612. daughters. You will not place your trust in

  613. the man that the devil has inspired to destroy you in the

  614. name of Jesus. And Tamar took the cake which he

  615. had made, and brought them into the chamber to Amnon, her

  616. brother. And when she had brought them

  617. all to him to eat, he took hold of her and said unto her, Come

  618. lie with me, my sister, And she answers Me, my brother, do not

  619. force me, for no sorting ought to be done in history.

  620. Do no doubt this fully. And I with us.

  621. I caused my shame to go, and As for thee, thou shalt be as one

  622. of the fools in Israel now. Therefore I pray thee speak unto

  623. the King, for he will not withhold me from thee.

  624. Verse 14. How be he will not hacking unto

  625. her voice, but be stronger than see, force her, and lay with

  626. her? Then afterward the Bible say ye

  627. now heated her, and the hatred surpassed the higher loss.

  628. He was called in love. One thing left to the other.

  629. The father heard about it. He didn't see anything his

  630. brother Absalom had about it. He was.

  631. So furious are we together. And what happened eventually was

  632. that Absalom made sure he killed.

  633. I'm no. That's why I say I'm.

  634. Not did not only lose the troll as a apparent be the fourth son

  635. of David who have emeritated the troll, he lost the troll because

  636. he hacked to Jonadar. He put trust, he puts his

  637. confidence. He misplaces trust in the

  638. advice. Of a friend chosen from within

  639. the family circle. They're not only that he died

  640. before the throne will be ready for inheritance.

  641. Koti, I told you we pay so no money at the which this other

  642. one that we're fighting over the true Absalom.

  643. Absalom and the other one. I don't like that, you know, it

  644. was for her not to just speak it without anybody contending.

  645. But the the advice he got from the the worst of the story.

  646. OK, is the double phase attitude of this Jonathan.

  647. Let's jump to verse 32. After Absalom had killed Unknown

  648. and King David thought it was all the royal sons that were

  649. killed. Then we found Jonah Dabry appear

  650. and Jonah Dab the son of Simia David Broder.

  651. That 32 made it very clear for us so that we know that it is

  652. the same Jonah Dab, not another one.

  653. Hansard has said, Let not my Lord suppose that they have

  654. slain all the young men's king soul from.

  655. O for Amnon only is dead somebody that is not calling,

  656. somebody that's not softie. Will he have the courage to

  657. appear? Should he not be so bad that and

  658. I was the one that caused this table, for by the appointment of

  659. Absalom this had been determined from the day that he forced his

  660. sister Tama Lenwa. Now therefore let God, my Lord

  661. the King, take the thing to his heart to think that all the king

  662. sons are dead, for harmony only is dead.

  663. And secondly, I'm not Rousseau to Vaidyape.

  664. But Absalom fled, and the young man that kept the watch lifted

  665. up his eyes. And look at you.

  666. There came more people by the way, And so on and so forth.

  667. And Jonadab are certified. And Jonadab said unto the.

  668. King, behold, the King's sons come, as the serpent said.

  669. So it is immediately he gave that counsel to Jonadab.

  670. OK, at the initial state he disappeared at the death of

  671. Amnon, only for him to reappear. And as soon as he had made an

  672. end of speaking that behold, the King's sons came.

  673. So he appeared like a comforter to the king.

  674. They might worry. I'm on the kaloku.

  675. Hello, Omakaloku. And Omaku a little out of their

  676. voice. And web.

  677. And the king also, and all the servants wept very.

  678. So it was not God that you know, that was weeping.

  679. It was only the king and the king cells that were weeping.

  680. So Jonah gave a wicked advance. So I'm not that cost him his

  681. throne and his life. They later tried to play the

  682. peacemaker like nothing happened.

  683. As we read from the story, there was no any form of remorse that

  684. he contributed to the death of and more.

  685. And I'm not. Let's draw the curtain today by

  686. looking at five major things that you need to check before

  687. you can trust any person's advice.

  688. What to watch out for before you trust people's advice #1 check

  689. the fruit. Check.

  690. What's the fruit? Even when I'm on, I mean check

  691. the fruit, the Bible says by their fruit you will know them.

  692. Even when I'm not. I'm not giving that cancer.

  693. The Bible already described him as a subty man.

  694. Allah Rikki. Rikki.

  695. It's only the devil. OK, that we first find in the

  696. Bible that that word was useful. In Genesis chapter 3, the Bible

    Genesis 3 chapter mention

  697. says the serpent was more subty than any other animal.

  698. So a person that the Bible can describe as subti, that can give

  699. the same description that was given to the devil.

  700. Yet we have a royal child here. Our parents submitted to the

  701. advice of that kind of person. It means he didn't check the

  702. food, He didn't check the lifestyle.

  703. Am I talking to somebody? So if someone past cancer led to

  704. a mess, think twice before you swallow their nest.

  705. Wise words. So check the fruits what

  706. residents should do. Check the fruit #2 don't ignore

  707. patterns. Don't ignore what?

  708. Patterns you see Jonathan hand washing after the damage source

  709. the. Classic pattern of double faced

  710. people who will push you and turn around to blame you.

  711. That's how double faced people behave.

  712. They will push you and turn around to do all to blame you is

  713. the one that asked you to do it OK And then when the teens come

  714. back OK, the same person will be the one to blame you.

  715. We have an engineer working for us in this church.

  716. Praise the name of the Lord when it comes to purchasing things

  717. OK, I have learned not to always rely on his advice because he

  718. will tell you ah it's good, buy it.

  719. You know, if after some time the things not working with you 2

  720. went and buy China and it was the one that made the

  721. recommendation, praise the name of the law.

  722. Am I talking to somebody? So check the pattern.

  723. If you are relating with people that will push you, OK, if the

  724. result turn out where the person will say I just save it.

  725. But if it doesn't turn out well, he has a way of, you know,

  726. judging, taking responsibility, OK for the mess, check the

  727. pattern. Don't put your trust in such a

  728. person. And as you relate with people,

  729. OK, you will know it will have advised me there's much that

  730. didn't turn well, turn out well and you dodge the responsibility

  731. for it. OK.

  732. So when such a person you want to take advice on issues that

  733. are more sensitive, you don't talk to such people.

  734. So watch patterns. What do I say you should do?

  735. Watch patterns number 36 sources, not just voices.

  736. Very often I said to my wife, when people are talking to you,

  737. don't relate to the emotion, relate to the Spirit behind what

  738. they are saying. You know, when the Philistine

  739. wife of Samson was weeping for seven days, Samson was related

  740. to the emotion. He was not related with the

  741. Spirit behind the demonstration. So six sources, not just voices.

  742. From which source is this person drawing this inspiration to give

  743. this kind of advice? You had a check in your mind as

  744. I'm no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

  745. It's on an arrow that I should do this to my step sister.

  746. And somebody said no. As the son of the king, there's

  747. nothing you point to in the Kingdom that will not be given

  748. to you. And my mom was not giving

  749. attention to the source, he was only listening to the voice.

  750. There are many voices on the puppy today that their source is

  751. dirty, their source is demonic, and that's why they can say the

  752. kind of thing they are saying without giving a damn.

  753. Am I talking to somebody? Somebody will come OK, in the

  754. name of puppet preaching, I will be advocating in favour of

  755. divorce. I want to ask yourself what kind

  756. of Babu are there already? We are not saying it's not

  757. happening, but it should not happen.

  758. We should not support, we should.

  759. We should not put a stamp of endorsement, OK on things that

  760. we should be trying to find solution to.

  761. Am I talking to somebody? So six sources, not just voices,

  762. go for people whose track record line up with good outcomes.

  763. The last time he advised me on this, what was the outcome?

  764. Even his own pattern of Life. OK what are the outcome so go

  765. for people whose track record line up with good outcome not

  766. just Mutov Always employ the admonition of Joe to test walls

  767. with our hairs as the tongue tastes food in job chapter 12.

    Job 12 chapter mention

  768. That's the level it is really does not the hair test world set

  769. it in a so mandala who does not the hair test world as the

  770. tongue tastes food. So the way you use your tongue

  771. to taste food if it is bitter, you spill it is that all the

  772. same way? Tray your hair to test world to

  773. decide between good and evil and you do that by seeking the

  774. source, not just voices. So the fact that is a is a

  775. global phenomenon known everywhere has made him a void.

  776. But you need to query what is his sauce?

  777. Stay with a little sauce, OK, Down floor with an ocean?

  778. Where are you? We think, am I talking to

  779. somebody? #4 even the cancer test.

  780. The cancer. How do you test cancer?

  781. Put it against scripture. Put it against wisdom.

  782. Hello. Both divine wisdom and native

  783. wisdom. If I'm not up no parallel.

  784. The council of Jonadab with native wisdom.

  785. The culture of the land, he will have said to himself, how shall

  786. we have this? You know?

  787. So put it against Scripture, put it against wisdom, Put it

  788. against what your trusted and tested community will see

  789. Ayodhya. But we are not following by gay.

  790. So what? How will your trusted and tested

  791. community look at the issue? Judge the issue.

  792. Please avoid being gullible. So in the process of taking

  793. cancer and making judgement, don't ignore your parents.

  794. I am beginning to point you to community of trusted and tested

  795. and proven people. Don't ignore your parents.

  796. Don't ignore your pastor council, especially if your

  797. pastor has passed test 1-2 and three.

  798. What is test 1? The fruit, the pattern, Abhi,

  799. then the source. So a pastor that has passed the

  800. first three tests must be part of the community.

  801. OK, you are going to look at before you make that judgments,

  802. before you take that cancer. So don't ignore your parents,

  803. don't ignore your pastor. Don't leave these people and go

  804. for online. Advice or go for AI advice.

  805. I advise of non assistant people that will not be there to bear

  806. the consequence with you. Jonadab was not there to bear

  807. the consequence with him. No, by the time I'm known, we

  808. die. He died alone.

  809. Am I talking to somebody then #5 whom?

  810. Your own actions, any step you will take and you will not be

  811. able to stand by it is not best for you.

  812. It is not wise OK that after you have taken action and it went

  813. wrong, the only excuse we have is that I said this, said I

  814. should do it all about your goal.

  815. So if we someone fed you bad advice, always remember that you

  816. are still going to carry the consequence.

  817. You should therefore count the course before you jump into

  818. action. This is the bottom line.

  819. As I round off where you are being cancelled, listen but also

  820. for that filter listen. But do what?

  821. Filter jaw, Jaw, jaw, jaw. Take the grain and throw away

  822. the socks. Listen, both filter and like I

  823. said earlier, not every loud voice is a leader.
