Summary: There are dire consequences for our actions against those heaven considers ''just men", even in our thoughts towards them there can be consequnces.

Matt 27:19

When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.

Pilates wife sent a message to him and it was a very clear message. She had had a dream and in that dream she suffered many things. In short she saw the terrible consequences of her husbands actions against an innocent man that she had never seen. She therefore interfered with Pilates work and sent a message to her husband. She had a dream and in that dream she knew that her husbands choices would affect her. She learned from the dream that there was an innocent man, a just man whom her husband was involved with negatively. It was the reason she advised her husband to HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH that man.

Pilates wife actually advised her husband on legal matters that day. She didn’t go shopping or minded her business but advised her husband. And the advice she gave was not to reduce the punishment of whoever he was judging but her advice was HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT JUST MAN. She didn’t even know Jesus’ name but she was sure it was a man.

And notice that she didn’t just know him as any man in her dream. She woke up knowing that He was a just man.

Lesson learned: DON’T HAVE ANYTHING EVIL TO DO WITH A JUST MAN

Lesson learned: There are consequences that are gotten by participating in evil against a just man.

There was a wife of David known as Michal, when she saw David dancing and lowering his dignity she did something in her heart yet it brought consequences to her in the natural. She did something in her heart that God saw. She despised him, and the Holy Spirit noted this and wrote it down.

1 Chronicles 15:29 : And it came to pass, as the ark of the covenant of the LORD came to the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looking out at a window saw king David dancing and playing: and she despised him in her heart.

It was after she did this that the consequences showed themselves physically. In 1st Samuel 6:21-23 the scriptures tell us more clearly that she ended up barren because of just this thought that took place in her heart.

2 Samuel 6:21-23

21 And David said unto Michal, It was before the LORD, which chose me before thy father, and before all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of the LORD, over Israel: therefore will I play before the LORD.

22 And I will yet be more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight: and of the maidservants which thou hast spoken of, of them shall I be had in honour.

23 THEREFORE Michal the daughter of Saul had no child unto the day of her death.

Remember Michal was the wife of David yet she bore full consequences for the thoughts of her heart towards him.Its the reason salvation is personal and its consequences are to the individual.

Be very very careful of the "THEREFORE" in your life. For Michal she got a permanent reward for despising David "in her heart". You reap what you sow even when you do something in your heart there are consequences.

In short HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH A JUST MAN!
