It shall not happen

I just attended an excellent presentation all about personal safety and so on…

There were many lessons to be learnt; how to deal with robberies, carjacking…

Now, all was good until…at one point I felt I was battling ….reason being…his words:

“It shall happen to you, It will happen to you so be prepared!”

“Carjacking will happen to you, people will break into your homes…”

I just immediately started praying, thinking and screaming in my head “What are you saying, No, No, No!!!” I kept saying “God I refuse that report, in the name of Jesus.”

At the end of the presentation I approached the presenter, and had a word with him privately. I kindly asked him to maybe alter his words…to it may, or it can ….we discussed the issue.

See, the problem is the presenter at the time, became the authority, we were all under his voice. …and as he spoke, people simply nodded and agreed with him.

See, as we travel through this journey, we need to be very aware of the reports that are put to us, and what we accept.

This of course is all my opinion, but I felt if I simply nodded and accepted, I was then giving the devil entry to timetable a carjacking, and burglary, into my life.

See, just as God has a plan, and a timetable regarding you and how you will fulfill you’re purpose…., the enemy also has a plan and time table for you. He can only guess at the future (as he can not know and does not have the power to tell the future…but as he has observed humans since the Garden of Eden, he kinda knows you’re response to situations he will throw at you, and how to fool you so he can sneak in through the back doors you open.)

Please don’t let people speak empty words into your life, or worse still proclaim doom over you’re life: please remember:

"Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit." (Proverbs 18:21)

Yes, some of you think this is all extreme and that I have lost some marbles along the way…but in a few months or years, you will understand what I meant.
