Don't cut that Devil loose just yet!

"Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?" John 6:70

Jesus Christ understood that not everyone that was a part of his team was in support of him. However he treated Judas (the devil among the twelve) no different than he treated the others but at the same time allowed him to be the devil that he was.

The revelation of this particular scripture is simply this, even the one's that pretend to be in your corner but at the same time stabbing you in the back, have a role to play as it relates to your destiny. The truth is you CAN NOT ARRIVE AT YOUR DESTINY WITHOUT THE ASSISTANCE OF THEIR COVERT EVIL ROLE!

I want to speak to the broken spirit or someone today and not to your frustration. In spite of what you are aware of concerning that person that has betrayed or disappointed you, do not be to quick in cutting that particular devil loose just yet. Unbeknown to that devil, they do play a role in this season of your life. However, what they are planning for bad has been allowed by God to work and benefit you for good. In other word, if you were to act according to your feelings and not according to spiritual insight you will be tossing away apart of the ingredient that is very much needed for your future success. As a heads up, devils are assigned to you by Satan but allowed by God for your benefit.

As a reminder, Jesus clearly said, HE HAS CHOSEN THE TWELVE AND HE WAS FULLY AWARE THAT ONE OF THE TWELVE HE HAD CHOSEN WAS INDEED A DEVIL BUT JESUS NEVER CUT HIM LOOSE. Jesus knew that Judas was apart of the plan for humanity's salvation. In other words, Judas was just apart of a bigger picture but very much needed to complete that picture. There would have been no crucifixion without Judas!!!!!! Nevertheless, he had to perform his allowed assigned role. News flash! GET OUT OF YOUR ENEMY'S WAY AND LET THEM PERFORM THEIR ASSIGNED ROLE SO THAT YOU AND OTHERS CAN GET TO THE NEXT LEVEL!!!!!!!!! Unknowing to that devil he has been permitted by God to assist in advancing you.

My friend, hear me today, as crazy as this may sound, begin to thank God for what he's allowed you to be privy to concerning that person or that group (the devils) for there is purpose to what is seemingly madness, hold your peace and allow the cards to fall the way they were ordained by the master of all plans has designed them to fall........

Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth, Psalm 46:10

Is God more concern about my sin or my purpose?

I am a lover of knowledge and most certainly an addict of revelation. I made a conscious decision a long time ago to not follow the crowd (religion) but instead to do exactly what scripture has commanded me to do and that is study to show myself approved, 2 Timothy 2:15.

I will always be of the view that once you understand how something operates then you are better position to not only master it but you now have the ability to disrupt its ability of mastering you. Anything that’s mastering you or dominating you, clearly says to me that you’re either ignorant of how it operates or it has mastered operating or dominating you.

It’s amazing that many folks believe that on the Day of Judgment; God’s primary concern will be judging us on the wickedness we have done and how we've gone contrary to his law. To a certain extent this is partially true. However, when we use the word wicked or wickedness we automatically think of the occult, fornication, adultery, murder and anything going contrary to the ten commandments.

Let’s just briefly observe the word wicked in an effort to get a clearer understanding of this word and how this word for the most part goes beyond our limited understanding of its definition. The word wicked is defined as being evil or morally bad in principle or practice. In terms of a person it can also be defined as someone that is ill-natured or adamant and committed to the principle or practice of things that are morally bad.

It was imperative that I not only give a clear understanding of the word wicked but it was a must for me to have elaborated on the word as to the revelation and spiritual implication we are about to unfold.

In the book of Matthew 25: 14-30, Jesus gives a parable about the kingdom of heaven. In this account he spoke of a certain man who traveled into a far country; gathered his servants’ together and distributed talents among them. The account goes on to say, “to one servant he gave five talents, to another he gave two talents and to another he gave one talent, he gave each one according to their ability and went his way”.

Scripture further records that after a long while the Lord of the servants returned to reconcile with his servants. It is said that the servant with the five talents had invested his talents and got a return of five more. The servant that was given the two talents also invested his talents and was also able to get a return of two additional talents than he originally had. Nevertheless, the servant that was given the one talent never invested his single talent, which obviously had the ability to produce more than he originally had. Instead, scripture records that this particular servant dug a hole in the earth and buried his Lord’s money.

Now this is where it becomes interesting and the unearthing of revelation. The Lord of the servants that got a return on their talents that were invested said, “Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord” Matthew 25:21. Now let us read slowly and carefully what the Lord of the servants said to the servant that did not invest and multiply his talent, “You WICKED and slothful servant, you knew that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not spread, then you should have deposited my money with the bankers. And when I returned I would have received my money back with interest” Matthew 25:26-27.

Let us review some interesting facts here, the servant in question here that buried his talent did not fornicate, murder, commit adultery. There is no evidence or account of him being a wizard, Satanist, witchcraft worker, porn star etc, so why did his Lord refer to him as being wicked with such indignation? Well this brings me to my point and that point is my friend, God is more concern about the talents that he’s given you to fulfill his purpose in the earth, than the sin in your life. In fact he has made provision for the sin that he knew well in advance you would have committed, well before the day you accepted him as lord and savior. The provision that were made for your sin is as follows, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” 1 John 1:9.

Interestingly enough, there are no provisions made scripturally to accommodate the non use of the gifts and talents that God has given us to invest into the lives of others. Therefore according to scripture you are labeled and categorized as a WICKED and slothful servant. I want to speak specifically to someone reading this article, that believe they have arrived (reached the mark) when it comes to Christianity. You are of the misleading view that because you don’t smoke, drink, fornicate, you’re not sexually immoral, you’ve been married to the same spouse for x amount of years you attend church every time the church doors are open, that this makes you perfect and righteous and everyone else needs to come up to your level.

Well, as you would have read in the scripture text above the servant with the one talent was probably doing all that you are doing and figured that he had it all together also. However, he NEVER fulfilled the purpose of God for his life which of course was the original reason for his talent. As a result the single talent that he had was taken away from him and given to the one that mastered the understanding that God was more concerned about the talents in his life to fulfill the plan and purposes of God than the sin we all will inevitably commit, that God in his infinite wisdom has already made provision for. I am also convinced that the two servants that got a return on their talents also messed up (sinned) on their path of fulfilling their purpose. If their sin was God's primary concern, then why didn't the master questioned them on the sin that undoubtly they would have committed as opposed to focusing on their talents?

My questions to you is, are you giving serious thought and application to the purpose of God for your life or are you like others being deceived by thinking that by your version of “Living holy” and keeping a record of who sin and who didn't sin that this has placed you in right standing with God? I want to say to you, focus on what God has placed you here on earth to do, for this will always be his primary purpose concerning you and what you will ultimately give an account for. The will of God is impossible to be fulfilled in your life outside of the talent he’s given you to perform it with.

My words of wisdom to you is focus on your God given talents that you were equip with to fulfill God’s plans in the earth while you daily ask for forgiveness of your sins that he has faithfully and graciously made provision for.
