IT IS OVER MY FRIEND… EMOTIONAL GAMES?

Proverbs 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

Proverbs 18:21 (MSG) Words kill, words give life; they're either poison or fruit—you choose.

YOU ARE DEAD MEAT! IT IS OVER MY FRIEND… LISTEN REAL CLOSE… WHO DEFINES WHAT YOU AE EXPERIENCES?

Acts 28:4 And when the barbarians saw the venomous beast hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance suffereth not to live.

PAUL YOU ARE A DOOMED MAN… You survived a 14 day storm and now look at you… a VIPER FASTENS ON PAUL’S HAND AS HE WAS WOORKING TO BUILD A FIRE TO KEEP FROM DYING IN THE COLD… LISTEN TO BARBARIANS? LISTEN CLOSE… YOUR ARE DEAD MEAT… THERE IS NO CHANCE OF SURVIVAL…

Acts 28:3 And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid them on the fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened on his hand.

PAUL KNEW ONLY ONE OPINION MATTER… GOD PROMISED PAUL HE WAS GOING TO ROME TO MINISTER --- THEY CHANGED THEIR MINDS --- THEY CHANGED THEIR MINDS…

Acts 28:5 And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm. 6 Howbeit they looked when he should have swollen, or fallen down dead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god .

PAUL COULD HAVE LISTENED TO THE NEGATIVE… THERE IS GOOD NEWS… THE BAD NEWS IS NOT THE TRUTH… THE GOOD NEWS IS IT IS NOT OVER…

SHAKE IT OFF…. Many sick people, many doomed people FIND HOPE because Paul shook the snake in the fire and continued GOD’S PLAN. We can’t listen to the NAYSAYERS…

GEHAZI PERMITS FEAR AND PANIC TO RELEASE NEGATIVE VIPES? GEHAZI SEES THE VAST POWER OF THE ENEMY… WE ARE DEAD MEAT? HE WAKES UP ELISHA AND WARNS HIM OF THE DOOM THEY FACE… CHARIOTS AND WEAPONS SURROUND US… WE HAVE NO HOPE…

Gehazi looks for a sharp butch knife? Elisha the old Preacher says: CALM DOWN, PEACE BRO…

2 Kings 6:16 And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them. 17 And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha..

Lord God help this Gehazi to see --- THERE ARE MORE FOR US THAN AGAINST US… THE GOOD NEWS IS THE BAD NEWS IS NOT THE TRUTH… OPEN EYES? CLOSE EYES… TRUST GOD’S GOOD NEWS…

2 Kings 6:22 And he answered, Thou shalt not smite them: wouldest thou smite those whom thou hast taken captive with thy sword and with thy bow? set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink, and go to their master.

DON’T LISTEN TO THE NEGATIVE DOOM SAYERS… IF WE DO NOTHING WE DIE! IF WE TRY SOMETHING WE DIE… WE ARE DOOMED… WHY SIT HERE AND DIE? MAYBE GOD WILL DO SOMETHING? NO WAY!!! LISTEN TO THE NEGATIVE STORIES?

2 Kings 7:2 Then a lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, Behold, if the LORD would make windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.

WHY SIT HERE AND EVALUATE THE PROBLEMS? WHY LISTEN TO THOSE WITH NO HOPE?

2 Kings 7:3 And there were four leprous men at the entering in of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die? 4 If we say, We will enter into the city, then the famine is in the city, and we shall die there: and if we sit still here, we die also. Now therefore come, and let us fall unto the host of the Syrians: if they save us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die.

WE DO NOT WELL SITITNG HERE?

2 Kings 7:9 Then they said one to another, We do not well: this day is a day of good tidings, and we hold our peace: if we tarry till the morning light, some mischief will come upon us: now therefore come, that we may go and tell the king's household.

I STAND AMAZED AS HOW WE WILL BE REMEMBERED… BABE RUTH…

TO STRIKE OUT IS A DISGRACE… STRIKE 3, YOU ARE OUT…
