I sat for a bit thinking about and praying on today’s passage. The world has many busybodies, I see them a lot on FB. Sadly, they are in the church too and that is unacceptable. I can relate to this first hand. My divorce was hard. I experienced things no one should ever have to endure. Yes, I could have left sooner but I was trying hard to save my marriage and I had fallen victim to the cycle of living with a narcissist without realizing it. I had let him back then kicked him out when his ways had not changed, would not change. It was during this time that I noticed I was being avoided at events I attended, even avoided in church. It started with uncomfortable smiles and then complete avoidance. It hurt. But God used it to show me they weren’t my people, let it go daughter. And so I did.
Busybodies are destructive. They manipulate the truth, many without even realizing it. God’s children are held to a higher standard. Today’s passage speaks of people who are disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies. We are not in a position to talk about or look down on anyone. We are all saved through the blood of Christ. We all receive more grace and mercy than we deserve. We must also learn not to vex the spirit. When God gives a word we should all want to hear it, no one should be silenced and then ask later for the word at the time they deemed appropriate. The spirit has been vexed and the rhema word for that moment may have already evaporated because the Spirit was vexed.
I have learned my circle is small. It hurt for a while, God told me not everyone can go where I’m going. I now lift the Lord up in praise. I do my work quietly until God has me raise my voice with the words He has filled my spirit with. That time is coming… 🦅 ~ Prophetess Michelle, #f8ithgal, #Joy
“11 For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies. 12 Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.” ~ Thessalonians 3:11-12
