The devil always uses our weaknesses to attack us, he knows that with your strength its not easy for you to fall. If before you were born again your weakness was lust, he will use it against you. He will make sure you fall into lust unaware, oh we thank God for the spirit of self control. If you loved speaking bad about other people before you were born again, the devil wil use it to make you fall. He will make sure that when you see other people you become thirsty and hungry to gossip. We thank God that we aware that thers life and death in the power of the toungue. I remember the story of this other pastor, he was short -tempered and he was afraid of dogs since he was young. The reason hes afraid of dogs is that he was once bitten severe by the dog, and thought he would die. He hates dogs somuch,when he see dogs he feels like shouting and beating it. This became his weakness, to an extent that he cant control his toungue everytime he sees a dog. Well, the story doesnt end there...the devil noticed that the pastor is very weak when it comes to dogs. Dont forget he was the most well known pastor, he had more than 10 thousand members. One day they were having a big revival,all his 10 branches from different places were there. As the pastor of all the churches, he was the one preaching in the first service. He was dressing very nice and his suit was very neat and expensive. He ascended the podium and start to preach, It was like heaven on earth...wow the pastor can preach! While he was preaching , through the church door he saw a dog, he became terrified. People noticed and were suprised what was happening . He saw it again , avoided it. Bear in mind that he was the only one who was able to saw the dog...since he was infront in the podium. He tried his best to avoid it...until the dog stares at him with a scary eyes. The pastor started to be on fire people thought its because he want to reveal revelations they stand up...but the pastor wanted to chase the dog by being energetic and shouting. The dog couldnt go, the pastor avoided it and preach.. The pastor : Jesus Christ said; ( then he looked at the dog) . Voetsek! The pastor lost his anger....People were confused that Jesus said Voetsek. Some they laughed at him....Only one person noticed what was going on with him, a little baby girl who was playing outside. She ran inside the church and said mommy pastor chased the dog away. People started to understand why the pastor preached like that.Unfortunately they had to give him 6 months live so that he can recover and seek help. LESSON LEARNT : 1. dont go and preach if you know that you have unressolved issues because you will the gospel and embarass yourself. 2. Ask God to help you to deal with anger. 3. Have seLf control, the devil is watching you. 4. Know how to deal with your weaknesse. Good Morning . What did you learn?
