We had a glitch for the past two days but we are now back.
Let’s get to it.
Hear what others have to say, but listen to God. Check this story
There was a wicked king in Israel called Jeroboam. When he stretched his hand against a man of God, it withered. The king asked for prayer, and his hand was healed. The king offered a reward, but the man of God refused, saying he was commanded by God not to eat, drink, or return the same way.
Here’s what the man of God said: “Even if you were to give me half your possessions, I would not go with you, nor would I eat bread or drink water here. For I was commanded by the word of the Lord: ‘You must not eat bread or drink water or return by the way you came.’
Then this happened
An old prophet in Bethel heard about the man of God and persuaded him to eat, claiming an angel told him to. The man of God, despite being commanded by God not to eat or drink there, was deceived and returned with him to eat and drink.
While they were eating, the word of the Lord came to the old prophet, condemning the man of God for disobeying God's command. After leaving, a lion met and killed the man of God, leaving his body on the road. 1 Kings 13
It is important to hear what others have to say but LISTEN to God.
~God is on your side!
