May the peace of the Lord be with you.
Topic: YOU HAVE NO EXCUSE TO JUDGE
Romans 2:1 King James Version (KJV)
2 Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.
Beloved, we are encouraged this morning not to judge anybody or any situation. For most of the things we judge, we do the same or even worse.
Beloved, if your brother or sister is doing something that you think or assume is wrong, pray for him or her. It is not your duty to judge and to condemn. Your duty is to ask God to deliver that person or help that person according to His will.
Beloved most of the things we accuse people of we are either doing the same thing in different ways or something worse in the same way.
For example, a person who masturbates would be comfortable to judge someone fornicating or committing adultery, meanwhile, they are both doing the same thing.
Having people condemn vandalism because they are seeing physical damages meanwhile they are vandalizing the economy of a country, accounting books, opportunities and provisions available at their work places etc.
You will find slanderers, gossips, people who are actually murdering people with their tongues condemning a person who has stolen or cheated someone.
Beloved all these people are same and must just keep quiet and pray to God for the deliverance of one another.
When we learn to do this, most of these things would stop and a lot of backbiting and negative happenings would come to a halt. Also we would have a lot of reformed people who will have positive influence on the society.
Most people who criticise or judge others, do so to cover their shame or the negative things they do or divert people's attention from them and their negative act.
Beloved, let it be known that in judging others or condemning them you judge yourself and condemn yourself as well and as such you are also deserving of whatever punishment you are applying or seeking to be applied to the person you judged.
Beloved, people judge others to make them feel good about themselves and have clear conscience to continue in their vice. They have in mind "at least what I do is better than what he is doing". But the God who said you shouldn't steal, the same said you shouldn't commit adultery.
So if you don't commit adultery and you steal, you are still guilty of the law and deserved to be judged and punished as well.
Beloved let us have love for all and the judgemental attitude of many will stop, let us treat others like we want to be treated and the judgemental life of many will end. Many will begin to pray for many because they also want to be prayed for and many will support many to live better lives because they also want to be supported to live better lives. People will talk to people and support them because they also want people to talk to and want the support, love and care.
Beloved, *IT'S ALL ABOUT JESUS* and no one else. Jesus loved us and told us not to judge so we won't be judged and He taught us to love one another as He has loved us. If we put this into practise the world would be a better place to live.
Prayer: Lord Jesus, let your love dwell in me and empower me to be a pillar for people around me so I support them and help them rather than judge them and condemn them. In the mighty name of Jesus I pray. Amen.
