GOD PROTECTS HIS OWN
“So it came to pass when King Jeroboam heard the saying of the man of God, who cried out against the altar in Bethel, that he stretched out his hand from the altar, saying, “arrest him!” Then his hand, which he stretched out toward him, withered, so that he could not pull it back to himself.” I Kings 13:4 NKJV
It looked very dramatic, and almost unbelievable, but it actually happened! A king’s hand withered when he stretched it out against a Servant of God! He pointed in the direction of the Man of God, asking his security aids to arrest the man. But, that very hand dried up instantly! The king froze like a statue!
The king had to plead like a child, asking the Man of God to please pray to God for his hand to be restored to normal. *”… the king answered and said to the man of God, “please entreat the favor of the Lord your God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored to me.” So the man of God entreated the Lord, and the king’s hand was restored to him, and became as before.”* I Kings 13:6 NKJV.
Do not join the ignorant, and the fools, that are insulting and rudely analyzing Servants of God online; just because they want to get paid with money if they can attract a lot of views! If you do it, God won’t spare you! *”… these men sneer at anything which they do not understand; and whatever they do know by [mere] instinct, like unreasoning and irrational beasts—by these things they are destroyed. Woe to them! For they have gone the [defiant] way of Cain, and for profit they have run headlong into the error of Balaam, and perished in the rebellion of [mutinous] Korah.”*
*SAY:*
Gracious God, thank you! My God and my Father, I pray that you may have mercy upon me, if I have sinned by attacking your messenger(s), your children, or your purposes. Let everything that has withered around me be fully restored, in Jesus’ name! Amen.
