Defending God
– May 23, 2017 –
How do we think of God? As a protector, as a savior, or as someone who needs our protection?
When we encounter someone speaking bad of God, of Jesus, we want to lash out, but the Lord will have His vengeance, it is not our responsibility. Two negatives added together do not make a positive.
Its hard, and it takes mental thought, but we should respond as Jesus wants us to, with blessings and positivity. Then at least their negative will be diffused back to neutral.
We would do better to respond with the old saying, “Bless your cotton picking little heart.”

When I find myself in these situations i dont argue with them or recite scriptures. I simply ask them do you believe in God? If the say no I say do you believe in Satan. Because he believes in you.
Well said!
As someone who works six days a week and rarely gets to visit my church, I look forward to these inspirational posts. I study and read on my own and they add to my daily study. Thank you for the inspiration to continue my on going pursuit for a closer relationship with my wonderful God.
You’re very welcome.
