Do not let your enemies participate in some of the thing’s you are planning to establish

Be careful about those who want to cast your vision into fallacy in purpose of working with you

Dear Lord Jesus I pray that as I receive your word in faith I may be blessed and transformed through it in Jesus name amen 

There are people who are with you not necessarily to help you or to support you along the vision that The Lord has given you but rather to cast your vision into fallacy 

The biggest mistake that people do is to always  identify their enemies towards what they are planning to establish and to do not knowing that the enemies of their progress are those very people that they have introduced that idea to. 

When the people who had returned back from the Babylonian captivity started building the temple of the Lord.  Guess who showed up. 

Their enemies – The enemies of Judah & the enemies of Benjamin .. when there enemies heard that the people who had returned from exile had started building the temple of the Lord..they came and insisted that they should rather build with them however their intention was not about progressing the work of the LORD but of putting down the work of the LORD Ezra 4:2[2]They came to Zerubbabel [now governor] and to the heads of the fathers’ houses and said, Let us build with you, for we seek and worship your God as you do, and we have sacrificed to Him since the days of Esarhaddon king of Assyria, who brought us here. [II Kings 17:24-29.]but rather Zerubbabel the governor refused Ezra 4:3[3]But Zerubbabel and Jeshua and the rest of the heads of fathers’ houses of Israel said to them, You have nothing to do with us in building a house to our God; but we ourselves will together build to the Lord, the God of Israel, as King Cyrus, the king of Persia, has commanded us.

Reflective questions about the teaching 

a) When the enemies of Judah and Benjamin heard how the people who had been taken to the land of captivity had come back, what did they do as realised upon to our essence of note 

b) Were the enemies of Judah and Benjamin allowed to participate in the building process? 

c) If so why do you think they were not allowed to participate in the building process 

d) What would be some of the lessons that you learn from our teaching in view to purpose

Dear Lord Jesus. my confession prayer that is that I will not let my enemies participate in what am establishing for your glory amen
