Who is this a Wisdom Bible church?
-
The Church of a distant Christian narration?
-
Our topic is still Lessons of Friendship, Lessons of
-
Friendship, and we are taking the 7th study and the particular
-
focus for today is the cost of misplaced trust in friendship is
-
going to be the third Sunday now or the third session wherein our
-
focus has been on the subject of trust.
-
But for today, the particular focus is the cost of misplaced
-
trolls in friendship. But it's also so good if we just
-
write it and by that connects with where we stopped last week.
-
Of course, last week one of the major high points that I made
-
was the recommendation that love must be tested before you taste
-
it. You recollect that I made very
-
strong emphasis on that principle that love must be
-
tested before you taste it. And this is more so because any
-
relationship that filled the test of trust must not be
-
allowed to grow into friendship. So that test we are talking
-
about is the test of trust, not the test of sex for young people
-
that are into romantic relationship.
-
So any relationship that filled the test of trust must not be
-
allowed to grow into friendship. And this is more so because
-
nothing destroy a man more imminently than he misplaced
-
trust. When you say something is
-
imminent, something that certainly must happen.
-
Something that certainly must happen, that is something that
-
is imminent. So nothing destroys a man more
-
imminently with more certainty than he misplaced trust.
-
I mentioned also in the past that trust is an emotional
-
capital. Trust is the emotional capital
-
you bring to invest into social contracts, is the capital your
-
brain to invest into social contract called friendship.
-
So trust is an emotional capital that is too expensive to be
-
invested where it will be disappointed.
-
Trust is so powerful and influence that one will not be
-
wise to invest it into a social contract where it can be
-
disappointed. So trust is an emotional capital
-
that is so so too expensive than to be invested where it will be
-
disappointed. Why?
-
Because the outcome of the victim is always too difficult
-
to cope with. When you invest trust into a
-
social contracts and eventually it is disappointed on the part
-
of you that invested trust with sincerity of purpose.
-
More often than not, it is always very difficult to cope
-
with the outcome of a disappointed trust, but
-
certainly if misplaced trust will be disappointed.
-
So it is you now that must guide properly, watch properly, be so
-
careful, OK, Where you place your trust, upon whom you place
-
your trust. What do I mean or how do I mean
-
by misplacement of trusts? We need to understand that
-
misplacement of trust is that regrettable situation whereby
-
you accommodate a potential enemy as friend.
-
So my definition of misplacement of trust is that regrettable
-
situation whereby you accommodate a potential enemy as
-
friend. I prayed in the name of Jesus as
-
I have always prayed for you, that you will not mistake
-
deception for deception. You will not accommodate into
-
your destiny perimeter and is seemingly friend that actually
-
is an enemy in the name of Jesus.
-
You can also consider misplacement of trolls as that
-
situation whereby you are served or tested advice and you use it
-
to take decision that you will later regret.
-
That's misplacement of trust or proven advice.
-
Sometimes advice that is not genuine but you are subject to
-
take decision that you will later regret and some of these
-
decision could be irreversible and their consequences can be
-
irredeemable. If you fall 15 of any of these,
-
it means you have misplaced your trust.
-
I pray for you again in the name of Jesus.
-
You will not invest your trust into a decision that you will
-
regret. You will not invest your trust
-
into a social contract that you will regret.
-
You will not misplace your trolls into social control that
-
will end up with bad consequences that are
-
irreversible and irredeemable in the name of Jesus.
-
So to still understand the concept further, you can also
-
look at it from the angle of play into the gallery by
-
following or by flowing with opinions of people that are not
-
committed to your success. I'm still trying to elaborate
-
and give description or definition to the concept of
-
misplacement of trust and I'm saying it also.
-
It could also mean you play into gallery by flowing with opinions
-
of people that are not committed to your sources.
-
You know, it's possible you are sincere, but the other person is
-
not sincere. Are you with me?
-
So are you the person that is not sincere with you is giving
-
you advice. Are you are taking it seriously?
-
So flowing with opinions of people that are not committed to
-
your sources and are not concerned about your fear.
-
You are the one that is dying because of them, OK?
-
And they are not ready to lift the finger because of your
-
matter. So if you now put the affair of
-
your destiny into such time, you now discover that you have
-
misplaced your trust. Am I talking to somebody?
-
So what is my advice before we move into biblical examples and
-
how we can take admonition from the error of some Bible
-
characters? So beware of taking advice from
-
people whose presence or goodwill is not good with you
-
into your future. You are going into a glorious
-
future. No power will stop you.
-
You are fulfilling A glorious destiny.
-
No demon will stop you in the name of Jesus, but as you
-
prepare yourself to advance into the future, one of the greatest
-
way you can help your destiny is not to take advice.
-
Take cancer from people whose presence or goodwill is not
-
going with you into the future. So somebody will not be part of
-
your tomorrow. Are you with me somebody whose
-
goodwill even if we will not be physically present with you in
-
the future, whose goodwill is not ready to go with you to the
-
future? Such kind of people are not the
-
best set of people to take advice from.
-
So this is the rule. If they don't have is take be
-
careful of giving them AC over your affair.
-
Anybody that does not have a stick, be careful OK of giving
-
such a person is say over your affair.
-
I want that to register very well.
-
Can you talk to your neighbors say if they don't have a state
-
be careful of giving them AC over your affair.
-
It's very important because great number of us are quick to
-
accommodate into our destiny. Perimeter people, we have not
-
investigate their sincerity. Hello people, you have not
-
investigate their sincerity. You bring them, you accommodate
-
them into your destiny perimeter and then you lose God.
-
You throw away all necessary caution.
-
So if they don't have a stake, be careful of giving them AC
-
over your affair. Then let me pause here and
-
address young persons, particularly those of you that
-
have strong presence on the social media.
-
I have given this cancer severally but it appear not many
-
people have given careful attention to it.
-
So many of you that refuse my advice about sensible use of
-
social media don't know. What you don't know is that some
-
online advisors I just dare to catch form.
-
Hello, why is online say education is a scam?
-
Is processing is admission into Oxford University?
-
Are you with me? So what many of you that reviews
-
my advice about sensible use of the social media don't know is
-
that some online advisors I just dare to catch form why some are
-
merely there for the likes and comments to to swell their
-
followers she on the social media.
-
So they go there, they say everything and when some people
-
who don't have a stake start to say nonsense on the social
-
media, you allow them to have a see over the affairs of your
-
destiny. They are moving forward, but
-
they have destroyed your destiny because you have misplaced your
-
trust. Am I talking to somebody?
-
So when you do that, you are putting your life on the line.
-
When you accept everybody you see online as authority on the
-
subject they are addressing or marketing, so quacks will begin
-
to speak like authority over subject that they know nothing
-
about. Praise the name of the law.
-
Some that did not even have a credit pass.
-
In biology, they talk authoritatively about medicine.
-
OK the speaker. Civil losses are talking.
-
You are there. Put your confidence in them.
-
Misplaced trust. So beware of those who are
-
online to merely gain traffic. If you are careless to believe
-
them, they use you to get traffic, but in the process you
-
gain tragedy for stupidly believing in them.
-
I have said it before and I'm repeating myself.
-
The social media space is a market for the sale of both
-
wisdom and fully. I also was called it a library
-
without a Liberian. I also call it a messy store
-
without a pharmacist. So it is fully to put your trust
-
in the council of people that can easily walk away and not
-
lose anything if they don't look back.
-
It is fully on your part to put your trust in the council of
-
people that easily walk away and not lose anything if they don't
-
look back. So a man that is not connected
-
to your condition will not be concerned about the consequences
-
of your action. In that case, it's a
-
misplacement of trust to miss out persons your confidence.
-
Confidentiality is the soul of friendship.
-
Do you know that a person you cannot trust with your secrets?
-
OK, you can say such a person is a friend.
-
So. And for a person to be worthy of
-
your secrets, that person must be connected to your condition.
-
That person must be concerned about the consequences of your
-
action. If you don't check all of that
-
and you just make somebody that's a stranger or somebody
-
that is not sincere, you're confident you have so much to
-
lose and it's not losing anything.
-
So it's a misplacement of trust to make a person that is not
-
connected to your condition or concerned about the consequences
-
of your action a confidence. So misplacement of trust, like
-
I'm saying, is an imminent disaster, a disaster that must
-
happen. It is a time bomb that no one
-
knows when it will explode. Misplacement of trust always
-
come with negative consequences, and the destruction that comes
-
through the era of misplaced trolls is imminent.
-
If it doesn't happen quickly, it will still happen eventually.
-
Will you rise on your feet as you take some of this prayer
-
point before we advance? Rise on your feet.
-
I pray for you that you prayed for yourself afterward.
-
May the law give you the disarmament not to accommodate
-
an enemy as friend in your destiny perimeter.
-
In the name of Jesus, now you pray for yourself.
-
Say, Lord, give me the disarmament not to accommodate
-
an enemy as friend inside my destiny perimeter.
-
Oh yeah, begin to pray in the name of Jesus.
-
That is, you will not draw close to yourself somebody who will
-
destroy you. Somebody will cause you damage.
-
You will not draw such person close to yourself.
-
Ask the Lord to help you, that you will not misplace your
-
trust. You will not invest your trust.
-
Into an enemy the law will grant you the spirit of disarming law
-
to accommodate an enemy as friend inside your destiny
-
perimeter. Talk to the law in Jesus name.
-
We pray as we proceed in the study, we are going to see how
-
Abel followed his elder brother to the thieves and he didn't
-
return a life. Hello.
-
He did not return a life. Lot.
-
A lot of young persons have put their confidence in friends and
-
their friends have sold them to the enemy.
-
I pray in the name of Jesus, the experience of Abel will not be
-
your experience in the hand of a friend.
-
The experience of Abel will not be your experience in the hand,
-
will not be your experience in the hand of Jesus.
-
I pray for you. You will not escort a
-
pretentious enemy as friend to the feed.
-
You will not follow a friend to a feed.
-
We are there will be no escape route for you.
-
In the name of Jesus. Say Lord, help me not to escort
-
a pretentious enemy as friend to defeat where there will be no
-
escape route for me. We are prayed in the name of
-
Jesus. Pray tennisly, pray tennisly,
-
pray tennisly. Talk to the Lord, talk to the
-
Lord, talk to the Lord. Discernment will guide your
-
decisions. In the name of Jesus, in Jesus
-
name we pray. In Jesus name we pray now, but
-
for confidence. But for covenant that was upon
-
something are you with me? But for the covenant that was
-
upon something OK, there is not nothing wrong OK, if you follow
-
his heart OK to choose a woman that he felt OK, he likes or he
-
love are you are you with me? But for the covenant that was
-
upon him, but it relax on the lap of Delilah.
-
You know what eventually ended the story.
-
So there's nothing wrong when a young man come of age.
-
OK. And he decided that as also
-
break the opposite gender into my circle of friendship.
-
I start to think about let this relationship grow into one
-
that's become a family. There's nothing wrong, are you
-
with me, but for the covenant that was upon something that
-
approved, that prohibited him from going to the camp of the
-
Philistine. But there are people who don't
-
go to the camp of Philistine, but yet they are regretting it.
-
Am I talking to somebody? I pray for you.
-
And then you pick it from there and pray for yourself and for
-
praying that I have prayed for your children.
-
You will not rely or relax on the lap of Delilah to his stress
-
in the name of Jesus. We are praying in the name of
-
Jesus. I will not rely or relax on the
-
lap of Delilah to his stress in the name of Jesus.
-
When some say relax on the lap of Delilah, it was easy stress.
-
You know, it was a man of war. OK.
-
He went out to fight and then he came back and he was relaxing on
-
the lap of will be wife and the woman sold him misplaced pros
-
in. Jesus name we pray, are you?
-
Are you are we together? In Jesus mighty name we pray.
-
Then there was this warrior that went to fight in defense of his
-
nation. But in the process, when he
-
discovered that he will not be able to conquer, he decided to
-
run away. OK.
-
And in the process of running a woman, I said, oh, I'm a
-
general, can you can you call me OK And said I needed water and
-
say OK water. Oh, I will give you more than
-
water. I gave him milk and he dragged
-
the milk he slept off. And that woman, the woman is
-
called Jahe. You know the story.
-
I pray for you. You will not drink me from the
-
cup of Jaheel in Jesus name. Oh yeah.
-
Prayed for yourself. Prayed for yourself.
-
Prayed for yourself. Prayed for yourself.
-
Prayed for your children, My children, my male children.
-
We will not drink milk from the cup of Jair in the name of
-
Jesus. Thank you Lord for answer
-
prayers in Jesus mighty name we pray.
-
Have your seat. So why are these prayer items
-
essential? They are very essential because
-
trust is a delicate assets. Trust is a delicate assets that
-
must be invested thoughtfully and prayerfully.
-
Trust is a very delicate assets that where you invest it, you
-
must do so thoughtfully and prayerfully.
-
Now let's consider examples of biblical characters that became
-
victims of their misplaced trust.
-
I have alluded to Ibn in Genesis chapter 4 is our first example.
Genesis 4 chapter mention
-
Ibn the second child of Father Adam only two brothers and 1 was
-
bad enough to kill his younger brother over what?
-
Because the young gawam appear to be having an edge over him in
-
Genesis chapter 4 Abel only please trust on bloodline bonds.
Genesis 4 chapter mention
-
Hello. You know it's an easy thing to
-
do. OK, Will you return home from
-
school and your brother not even step brother, full blooded
-
brother. We offer you a cup of water.
-
You have doubt in your mind to drink it.
-
You will take a cup of water and drink it freely.
-
But the truth of the matter is that we have Blood Brothers who
-
spite the drink of their brother.
-
So Abel Wrangler plays trust on bloodline board.
-
He did not leave to tell the story that bloodline board are
-
no, I mean may not translate to genuine brotherhood.
-
He was clubbed to death by his blood brother King Genesis
Genesis 4 chapter mention
-
chapter 4 and can't talk with Abel his brother the Bible
-
didn't say I came fault is fault with eBay and his brother the
-
Bible say he talked with him friendly talk gentle friendly.
-
Talk. Not knowing that this guy had
-
something else at the back of his mind for you parents in the
-
house, I pray I want my own in the name.
-
Of Jesus. I can't talk with him and his
-
brother. So when your brother is talking
-
with you, I say, let's have a day out.
-
You have a doubt in your mind to follow him.
-
You won't. And it came to pass when they
-
were in the field that came rose up.
-
But if you read the preceding verses, you will know that it
-
was not a solid demo that came upon him in the feed.
-
It was perfectly pre planned. He knew.
-
That that was what he was going to go and do against his brother
-
on the field. And when they were in the feed
-
that came rose up against Ebel, his brother.
-
And. Slew him.
-
Why did Eben follow him? Trust.
-
And the Lord said of the King, We are is able thy brother.
-
And he said, I know no am I my brother's keeper?
-
Put your mind on a typical African family life from
-
childhood, OK? They will always put the younger
-
one under the custody of the elderly 1.
-
The fact that we will say pointedly, are you with me?
-
So I'm a young man that grew like that, seeing his Big
-
Brother as a sheep, seeing his Big Brother as his keeper, not
-
knowing that he never to lay accepted that responsibility.
-
Because they're going to say where is heaven your brother?
-
I say my, my brother's keeper. It means all this while when the
-
parents have been keeping heaven, all that is custody has
-
been pretending. He never for once accepted that
-
responsibility. Imoji Kimoso and said, What has
-
thou done? The voice of their brother Blow
-
cried unto me from the ground. That is at the family level.
-
Let's go official and use the royal example, the kind that you
-
may relate well with at workplace or in the general
-
society. You will become great.
-
I say you become great. You will not make a devilish
-
colleague your confidence. You will not make an Elvis
-
colleague your confidence. You will not open the secret of
-
your destiny. To a devilish colleague in the
-
name of Jesus, the one that will use the information you provide
-
to destroy you, your servants. Iranska placed Strauss on royal
-
kingsmanship. The nation Israel, the nation
-
Judah. They came from the.
-
Same backgrounds and Josephus was playing diplomacy not
-
knowing that the king of Israel. OK, didn't care if he died, so
-
he have tricked in to participate in the war where
-
Joseph will have lost his life. Second Chronicle chapter 18 is a
-
very lengthy story. Second Chronicle chapter 18, but
-
we're going to take verse one and three and jump to verse 29
-
to 32. We're going to take from verse
-
one to verse 3 of chapter 18. They were going to jump to verse
-
29 and stop on verse 32. Now Joseph had had reaches an
-
honor in abundance and join affinity with AI and join
-
affinity with AI. We grow to a level.
-
We started to go to close. We grow to a level.
-
We started to play golf. Praise the name of the Lord.
-
I pray that as a Joseph you will not enjoy affinity with Ahab.
-
These two. And after certain years he went
-
down to Hayab to Samaria, and Ahab keeps sleep and also for
-
him in abundance. Now when somebody is giving you
-
this manner of reception, you know, because you come to visit
-
him and he calls all the friends, all the all the royal
-
members of the house or the member of his cabinet, and they
-
throw a dinner or a lounge for you.
-
You may not suspect that this person has some other ulterior
-
mochi. So he kills the Banosi for him
-
and abundance, and for the people that he had with him.
-
I'm persuaded to go with him to Ramogile, to join us with him to
-
engage in a battle. Verse 3.
-
And here king of said unto Joseph, a king of Judah, without
-
go with me to Ramogile. And he answered him, after he
-
has made him comfortable. I am as thou arts Okanen Niwa,
-
very innocent thing, and my people as thy people, and we
-
will be with thee in the war. So one thing left to another,
-
but just about instead let bring a prophet of God to know whether
-
we should go or not or not go. Praise the name of the law.
-
But he didn't go into that engagement with discernment.
-
You know, we have prayed about discernment.
-
He didn't go into that agreement with what?
-
With disarmament. I pray for you for every
-
engagement, either with a friend or with a stranger.
-
The law will help you to activate your disarmament in the
-
name of Jesus. Eventually they went, but they
-
have said before we go, we are going to do something.
-
There's going to be a change of garments.
-
You will. Wear my royal room to the
-
battlefield. Only God knew what they have
-
wore there. But you put the royal room on
-
Jio Savas and when he was put in our royal room or Juba Saba, it
-
will look like honor to Jiosabat.
-
I am I talking to somebody and by the time they go there, let's
-
read from verse 29, they go to the warfront and the king of
-
this I said to Joseph, I will disguise myself and we will go
-
to the battle, but put down on the rule.
-
So the king of his head disguising said and they went to
-
the battle. Now the king of Syria had
-
commanded the captains of the chariot that were within save
-
fighting not with small or grave save only the king of Israel.
-
So here Joseph was the only one that had real robe on him.
-
Are you with me? They have him say that had the
-
battle to fight as disguise insane.
-
Oh money go Hello. Are you with me?
-
What's your son that why yourself?
-
Let's say. So those who have that tendency,
-
OK, to cause the trouble and walk away to not gain your
-
trust. Verse 31 And it came to pass
-
when the captain of the child saw Joseph that they say it is
-
the king of history, therefore the compass about him to fight.
-
But Joseph cried out and the Lord helped him.
-
If you are put yourself into any situation whereby you will be
-
destroyed the way God helped you survive, I pray that help will
-
come your way in the name of Jesus.
-
And God moved them to depart from him.
-
For it came to pass that when the captain of the Chariots
-
perceived that it was not the king of Israel, they turned
-
back. Again from pursuing.
-
Him that would have ended the life of Josephus.
-
While we were praying, I also alluded to something.
-
So it's our third example. Something wrongly, please.
-
Is trust on infatuation. It places trust on what?
-
Infatuation. One of the things that always
-
demand our trust is our judgments.
-
What do I say? They also demand our trust, our
-
judgments. OK, You see that and you just
-
feel that this thing is good. In your analytical mind you
-
concluded that this is the way to go.
-
I pray that the judgment that will lead you to trouble, you
-
will not put your trust in it in the name of Jesus.
-
So in that case he put his trust on infatuation.
-
He entered a multi relationship to women that sold them out.
-
Like I said earlier, confidentiality is the soul of
-
friendship and the only thing that can keep you safe when you
-
confide in people is well, your trust.
-
Where your trust is reciprocated.
-
Hello where your trust what reciprocated?
-
So he place his trust at least on two women that were recorded
-
in the Bible and the two of them sold him out.
-
Something was betrayed by women twice in the Bible.
-
The first time was by his wife from team.
-
Now you know there was a time he killed a lion and upon his
-
return he found only in the lion and then by the time he got to
-
the camp of the Philistine, he made a redo about the lion.
-
What is so on and so forth. And it kept that secret of what
-
happened with the woman, but the woman gave him out.
-
So the woman repeat yourself as this route to our people which
-
eventually led to a conflict. Judges chapter 14, verse 15.
-
And it came to pass on the 7th day that is said unto Samson
-
wife, and ties thy husband, that he may declare unto us the redo,
-
lest we burn thee and thy father house with fire, as you call us
-
to take that we have. Is it not so as Samson's wife
-
wept before him? Hello, are you bury or any?
-
Hello. Hello young man, I pray for you.
-
You will not put your trust in a woman that we buy a weeping OK
-
'cause you to be the one that we weep last.
-
AM I talking to somebody? And something went went before
-
him. I said, Thou doors, thou doors,
-
but hate me or Pharaoh me I love.
-
Ask me, Lord, that has put forth they do unto the children of my
-
people, and has not told it me? And he said unto her, Behold, I
-
have not told it my father nor my mother, and shall I tell you
-
thee, You know it was asking, having a check in his in his
-
mind, but eventually he still made the wrong judgment and
-
leaked out the secrets. And see where before in the
-
seven days coping him out. Supposing a lot of who is that
-
man? Even if you are made with steel,
-
you will be broken because we are carrying flesh and blood.
-
Well, what will destroy you is appealing to your flesh and
-
blood. Your spirit will overpower the
-
flesh in the name of Jesus. And it came to pass on the 7th
-
day that He told her. They call selection upon him as
-
He told the redo to the children of our people who whatever he
-
will do Johnny and puts it in the hands of the enemy.
-
Then we have the second and Morphet famous betrayal that
-
came from Delilah would discover the secret of his train.
-
I don't know why something also behave like that.
-
What happened between him and the first woman in team now so
-
suggest to him that he should be careful with Philistine women,
-
but yet he's different. Fixing for the second time.
-
Here is feel the secret of his strength to Delilah and Delilah
-
handed him over to the Philistine.
-
And of course, that was the final straw that proves the
-
camel's bar. In the process he lost his
-
power, he lost his vision and he lost his life.
-
I pray in the name of Jesus you will not misplace your trust or
-
confide in people that will lead to your destruction.
-
In the name of Jesus you can read that story for time will
-
not be able to read that one in Judges chapter 16 from verse 14
Judges 16 chapter mention
-
to 21. Then the one we are going to
-
dwell on so much is the example of Amnon and Jonadab.
-
Amnon and Jonadab in Second Samuel 13.
-
I'm not wrongly Police trust in Jonadab's cancer.
-
Jonadab gave him very wrong advice, only for the same
-
Jonadab to later wash off his arm as if he had no hand in it.
-
And of course that's devilish advice 'cause unknown both the
-
Troon and his life. Who is this armor?
-
Amnon. Who is Jonadar?
-
The second Psalm, chapter 3, verse 2.
-
You will find the identity of Amnon, the scriptures say.
-
And unto David were sons born in Hebron, and his first born was
-
Amnon of Elohim, the gestural lighter.
-
So who is Amnon the first son of King David?
-
And as the first born, the first son, he was here apparent to the
-
throne of David. Then who is Jonadah?
-
The same second Psalm chapter 13, verse 32, the Scripture
-
says, and Jonadah the son of Simea Davis.
-
Brother, can you see the familiar relationship I'm not
-
the son of? David Jonadab, the son of
-
David's brother. So before you blame Hamlo for
-
taking cancer from Jonadab, first put yourself in the issue
-
of Hamlo. Has he done wrongly?
-
OK, for choosing is causing as his best friend, the son of his
-
father's brother, he didn't go outside the family circle.
-
He chose a friend, a confidant. And put trust in the council
-
that he gave him and it's Euro Diva.
-
Somebody. That is close to you that can
-
cause damage to your destiny. You will not misplace your trust
-
in such a person. In the name of Jesus.
-
So he advised I'm not wrongly and we are going to read the
-
story in Second Samuel 13 where I advised I'm not wrongly.
-
You will notice that when the consequences of that carry out
-
that advice and then the consequences of that advice, you
-
will not see Jonah Dabb in the picture at all.
-
So the advice is causing wrongly without being seen in the
-
picture. The most unfortunate about it
-
that will make you. Shiva is that the same area?
-
Appear later. You appear what later as
-
somebody better? You appear later as a
-
peacemaker. Who was never part of the evil
-
that I'm not committed. It's a very lengthy story, true,
-
but I got to read the first 14 verses.
-
No, it did not cover. The whole story, but it will
-
give us an idea of what the story is all about.
-
Then we're going to jump to verse 32 and 36.
-
How is stage a comeback? OK and was more or less like
-
blame me, I'm known. Are we together?
-
Blame me, I'm known for what I'm known.
-
Did we are asked It was the instigator.
-
He was the advisor. The way I'm not took to his
-
counsel is the same. I'm not will have taken to his
-
counsel if he has given him a better answer.
-
One tobacco dicio quota. Tobacco is your toba.
-
You understand tobacco? Second summer 13 and it came to
-
pass. I did from this one after this
-
that I'm Salam the son of David had a fair sister whose name was
-
Tamar and I'm not the son of David loved her and I'm not was
-
so fixed that he first seek for his sister Tamar, you know in
-
jail or door Odeba. I'm no, it was it was
-
youthfulness. And I suppose this man Jonah was
-
elderly. Hello.
-
This man Jonah was what? Elderly.
-
That was why he could look up to him for cancer, for she was a
-
virgin and. I'm not thought it out for him
-
to do anything to her. Listen, within I'm known he was
-
having a check that no matter how much I am feeling towards my
-
step sister, we are of the same blood.
-
I should not do anything for me. So that was the struggle with
-
him. If I would say he thought it
-
hard for him to do anything to her, even if that kind of
-
thought to rape the sister was coming to her.
-
He was fighting that thoughts. Are you with me?
-
If I would say he thought it hard for him to do anything to
-
her, he was fighting that thought until Jonah bar appear
-
and reinforce is lost that evil tendency in you.
-
You will not join friendship with somebody who will reinforce
-
it. Obama say to repair your council
-
for pay my share. Or E Carlo de Loni consciously.
-
I can't do it at. The end of the day.
-
You went into the evil and that friend disappeared because Jonas
-
and Jonadab disappeared. He did not only disappear after
-
Hammond died. You know the RPI gay.
-
OK, I'm posting like a good man. We're going.
-
To see that. But Hammond had a friend whose
-
name was Jonadab. I've taken you to go and check
-
which where did he come from? It was a friend chosen from
-
within the extended family circle, just as you can choose a
-
friend in church. And that friend may not be a
-
godly 1. The son of Senior's David
-
brother and Jonadam was a very subtle man.
-
And he said unto him, Why art thou being the King's son, limb
-
from day-to-day without not? Tell me he was so concerned.
-
And I'm not said unto him, I love Tama, my brother's sister.
-
And General said unto him, Lay thee down on thy bed, and make
-
thyself sick. When the father come here to see
-
this, say unto him, I pray thee, let my sister Tama come and give
-
me meat, and dress the meat in my sight that I'm a seed, and
-
eat it as a hand, so I'm not lay down.
-
I made himself see, following the advice of Jonadah, and when
-
the king was come to see him. And I'm not said unto the king,
-
I pray thee, let Tama my sister, come and make me a couple of
-
cake in my sight, that I may eat at a hand.
-
I pray you will not ask a script written by a friend that is sent
-
to destroy your life in the name of Jesus.
-
Then Davis sent home to Tama, saying, Go now to thy brother
-
ammo house and dress in me. So Tama went to her brother's
-
ammo's house, and he was knelt down, and she took flour and
-
kneaded it and made cakes in his side, and did big decay.
-
And she took a pan and poured them out before him, but he
-
refused to eat. All these were the advice given
-
to him by Jonah and Amos said half out all men from him and
-
they went out every man from him.
-
And I'm not said or to Tama. Bring the meat into the chamber.
-
Hello. Can we pause and look at Tama
-
here too? She was also a victim of
-
misplaced trust. My stepbrother, come to my room.
-
Will you blame that guy for not being suspicious?
-
Same, Father. I pray for you, my dear
-
daughters. You will not place your trust in
-
the man that the devil has inspired to destroy you in the
-
name of Jesus. And Tamar took the cake which he
-
had made, and brought them into the chamber to Amnon, her
-
brother. And when she had brought them
-
all to him to eat, he took hold of her and said unto her, Come
-
lie with me, my sister, And she answers Me, my brother, do not
-
force me, for no sorting ought to be done in history.
-
Do no doubt this fully. And I with us.
-
I caused my shame to go, and As for thee, thou shalt be as one
-
of the fools in Israel now. Therefore I pray thee speak unto
-
the King, for he will not withhold me from thee.
-
Verse 14. How be he will not hacking unto
-
her voice, but be stronger than see, force her, and lay with
-
her? Then afterward the Bible say ye
-
now heated her, and the hatred surpassed the higher loss.
-
He was called in love. One thing left to the other.
-
The father heard about it. He didn't see anything his
-
brother Absalom had about it. He was.
-
So furious are we together. And what happened eventually was
-
that Absalom made sure he killed.
-
I'm no. That's why I say I'm.
-
Not did not only lose the troll as a apparent be the fourth son
-
of David who have emeritated the troll, he lost the troll because
-
he hacked to Jonadar. He put trust, he puts his
-
confidence. He misplaces trust in the
-
advice. Of a friend chosen from within
-
the family circle. They're not only that he died
-
before the throne will be ready for inheritance.
-
Koti, I told you we pay so no money at the which this other
-
one that we're fighting over the true Absalom.
-
Absalom and the other one. I don't like that, you know, it
-
was for her not to just speak it without anybody contending.
-
But the the advice he got from the the worst of the story.
-
OK, is the double phase attitude of this Jonathan.
-
Let's jump to verse 32. After Absalom had killed Unknown
-
and King David thought it was all the royal sons that were
-
killed. Then we found Jonah Dabry appear
-
and Jonah Dab the son of Simia David Broder.
-
That 32 made it very clear for us so that we know that it is
-
the same Jonah Dab, not another one.
-
Hansard has said, Let not my Lord suppose that they have
-
slain all the young men's king soul from.
-
O for Amnon only is dead somebody that is not calling,
-
somebody that's not softie. Will he have the courage to
-
appear? Should he not be so bad that and
-
I was the one that caused this table, for by the appointment of
-
Absalom this had been determined from the day that he forced his
-
sister Tama Lenwa. Now therefore let God, my Lord
-
the King, take the thing to his heart to think that all the king
-
sons are dead, for harmony only is dead.
-
And secondly, I'm not Rousseau to Vaidyape.
-
But Absalom fled, and the young man that kept the watch lifted
-
up his eyes. And look at you.
-
There came more people by the way, And so on and so forth.
-
And Jonadab are certified. And Jonadab said unto the.
-
King, behold, the King's sons come, as the serpent said.
-
So it is immediately he gave that counsel to Jonadab.
-
OK, at the initial state he disappeared at the death of
-
Amnon, only for him to reappear. And as soon as he had made an
-
end of speaking that behold, the King's sons came.
-
So he appeared like a comforter to the king.
-
They might worry. I'm on the kaloku.
-
Hello, Omakaloku. And Omaku a little out of their
-
voice. And web.
-
And the king also, and all the servants wept very.
-
So it was not God that you know, that was weeping.
-
It was only the king and the king cells that were weeping.
-
So Jonah gave a wicked advance. So I'm not that cost him his
-
throne and his life. They later tried to play the
-
peacemaker like nothing happened.
-
As we read from the story, there was no any form of remorse that
-
he contributed to the death of and more.
-
And I'm not. Let's draw the curtain today by
-
looking at five major things that you need to check before
-
you can trust any person's advice.
-
What to watch out for before you trust people's advice #1 check
-
the fruit. Check.
-
What's the fruit? Even when I'm on, I mean check
-
the fruit, the Bible says by their fruit you will know them.
-
Even when I'm not. I'm not giving that cancer.
-
The Bible already described him as a subty man.
-
Allah Rikki. Rikki.
-
It's only the devil. OK, that we first find in the
-
Bible that that word was useful. In Genesis chapter 3, the Bible
Genesis 3 chapter mention
-
says the serpent was more subty than any other animal.
-
So a person that the Bible can describe as subti, that can give
-
the same description that was given to the devil.
-
Yet we have a royal child here. Our parents submitted to the
-
advice of that kind of person. It means he didn't check the
-
food, He didn't check the lifestyle.
-
Am I talking to somebody? So if someone past cancer led to
-
a mess, think twice before you swallow their nest.
-
Wise words. So check the fruits what
-
residents should do. Check the fruit #2 don't ignore
-
patterns. Don't ignore what?
-
Patterns you see Jonathan hand washing after the damage source
-
the. Classic pattern of double faced
-
people who will push you and turn around to blame you.
-
That's how double faced people behave.
-
They will push you and turn around to do all to blame you is
-
the one that asked you to do it OK And then when the teens come
-
back OK, the same person will be the one to blame you.
-
We have an engineer working for us in this church.
-
Praise the name of the Lord when it comes to purchasing things
-
OK, I have learned not to always rely on his advice because he
-
will tell you ah it's good, buy it.
-
You know, if after some time the things not working with you 2
-
went and buy China and it was the one that made the
-
recommendation, praise the name of the law.
-
Am I talking to somebody? So check the pattern.
-
If you are relating with people that will push you, OK, if the
-
result turn out where the person will say I just save it.
-
But if it doesn't turn out well, he has a way of, you know,
-
judging, taking responsibility, OK for the mess, check the
-
pattern. Don't put your trust in such a
-
person. And as you relate with people,
-
OK, you will know it will have advised me there's much that
-
didn't turn well, turn out well and you dodge the responsibility
-
for it. OK.
-
So when such a person you want to take advice on issues that
-
are more sensitive, you don't talk to such people.
-
So watch patterns. What do I say you should do?
-
Watch patterns number 36 sources, not just voices.
-
Very often I said to my wife, when people are talking to you,
-
don't relate to the emotion, relate to the Spirit behind what
-
they are saying. You know, when the Philistine
-
wife of Samson was weeping for seven days, Samson was related
-
to the emotion. He was not related with the
-
Spirit behind the demonstration. So six sources, not just voices.
-
From which source is this person drawing this inspiration to give
-
this kind of advice? You had a check in your mind as
-
I'm no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
-
It's on an arrow that I should do this to my step sister.
-
And somebody said no. As the son of the king, there's
-
nothing you point to in the Kingdom that will not be given
-
to you. And my mom was not giving
-
attention to the source, he was only listening to the voice.
-
There are many voices on the puppy today that their source is
-
dirty, their source is demonic, and that's why they can say the
-
kind of thing they are saying without giving a damn.
-
Am I talking to somebody? Somebody will come OK, in the
-
name of puppet preaching, I will be advocating in favour of
-
divorce. I want to ask yourself what kind
-
of Babu are there already? We are not saying it's not
-
happening, but it should not happen.
-
We should not support, we should.
-
We should not put a stamp of endorsement, OK on things that
-
we should be trying to find solution to.
-
Am I talking to somebody? So six sources, not just voices,
-
go for people whose track record line up with good outcomes.
-
The last time he advised me on this, what was the outcome?
-
Even his own pattern of Life. OK what are the outcome so go
-
for people whose track record line up with good outcome not
-
just Mutov Always employ the admonition of Joe to test walls
-
with our hairs as the tongue tastes food in job chapter 12.
Job 12 chapter mention
-
That's the level it is really does not the hair test world set
-
it in a so mandala who does not the hair test world as the
-
tongue tastes food. So the way you use your tongue
-
to taste food if it is bitter, you spill it is that all the
-
same way? Tray your hair to test world to
-
decide between good and evil and you do that by seeking the
-
source, not just voices. So the fact that is a is a
-
global phenomenon known everywhere has made him a void.
-
But you need to query what is his sauce?
-
Stay with a little sauce, OK, Down floor with an ocean?
-
Where are you? We think, am I talking to
-
somebody? #4 even the cancer test.
-
The cancer. How do you test cancer?
-
Put it against scripture. Put it against wisdom.
-
Hello. Both divine wisdom and native
-
wisdom. If I'm not up no parallel.
-
The council of Jonadab with native wisdom.
-
The culture of the land, he will have said to himself, how shall
-
we have this? You know?
-
So put it against Scripture, put it against wisdom, Put it
-
against what your trusted and tested community will see
-
Ayodhya. But we are not following by gay.
-
So what? How will your trusted and tested
-
community look at the issue? Judge the issue.
-
Please avoid being gullible. So in the process of taking
-
cancer and making judgement, don't ignore your parents.
-
I am beginning to point you to community of trusted and tested
-
and proven people. Don't ignore your parents.
-
Don't ignore your pastor council, especially if your
-
pastor has passed test 1-2 and three.
-
What is test 1? The fruit, the pattern, Abhi,
-
then the source. So a pastor that has passed the
-
first three tests must be part of the community.
-
OK, you are going to look at before you make that judgments,
-
before you take that cancer. So don't ignore your parents,
-
don't ignore your pastor. Don't leave these people and go
-
for online. Advice or go for AI advice.
-
I advise of non assistant people that will not be there to bear
-
the consequence with you. Jonadab was not there to bear
-
the consequence with him. No, by the time I'm known, we
-
die. He died alone.
-
Am I talking to somebody then #5 whom?
-
Your own actions, any step you will take and you will not be
-
able to stand by it is not best for you.
-
It is not wise OK that after you have taken action and it went
-
wrong, the only excuse we have is that I said this, said I
-
should do it all about your goal.
-
So if we someone fed you bad advice, always remember that you
-
are still going to carry the consequence.
-
You should therefore count the course before you jump into
-
action. This is the bottom line.
-
As I round off where you are being cancelled, listen but also
-
for that filter listen. But do what?
-
Filter jaw, Jaw, jaw, jaw. Take the grain and throw away
-
the socks. Listen, both filter and like I
-
said earlier, not every loud voice is a leader.
-
Hello. Some of the loud voice are not
-
leader. They are merely lousy people.
-
They are merely what lousy people?
-
The fact that the commander resources OK does not mean they
-
are speaking from the right source.
-
So not every loud voice is a leader.
-
Some are just noise. Not every feasible personality
-
is a responsible personality. God bless you.
-
We believe you'll be blessed by the ministry of this message.
-
You will do well to be the duer of all you've heard.
