Torah’s Heritage

Isaih 57:17 The aforementioned powerful passage expresses a deep reverence for the Torah and its divine protection. It speaks to the unassailable nature of divine law and wisdom Here's a breakdown of the passage's core message: "Every weapon sharpened against Torah shall not succeed": This implies that any attempt to undermine, negate, or harm the Torah (which represents divine teaching, law, and wisdom) will ultimately fail. It suggests an inherent strength and resilience in the Torah that cannot be overcome by adversarial forces. "And every tongue that is rised up against Torah shall be condemned.": This extends the idea of protection to verbal attacks or criticisms. Any speech or argument brought against the Torah will not only fail but will also face condemnation or judgment. "It shall be condemned because it shall be held up in suspension even before it makes it way in the direction of Torah.": This is a very vivid and profound image. It suggests that the condemnation is not just a consequence after the attack, but that the very attempt to speak against the Torah is pre-empted and neutralized before it can even fully articulate itself or reach its target. It implies a divine intervention that prevents the assault from gaining any traction. "This here is the heritage of Torah from Hashem -The Lord God creator of the Heavens and the earth.": This final sentence attributes the Torah's invincibility and protection directly to its divine origin. It is a "heritage" from "Hashem," emphasizing that its authority, truth, and resilience come from the Creator of the entire universe, making it fundamentally unchallengeable by human or earthly means. In essence, the passage conveys absolute faith in the divine origin and eternal truth of the Torah, asserting that it is divinely safeguarded against all forms of opposition.

God Took Sides With Me

Genesis 37:18-20 Genesis 4:1-16 Isaiah 54:17 A lot happened in the early stages of the life of Joseph the Dreamer. And it’s important to understand that nothing was his fault. Indeed and infact, it’s amazing that Joseph was carrying the glory of God upon his life but his brothers didn’t celebrate this truth. They observed Joseph and saw the glory of God upon his life and instead of celebrating him , they were instead filled with envy and jealousy. It was envy and jealousy that inspired the brothers of Joseph to attempt to kill Joseph. They wanted to kill Joseph because they would not stand the glory of God upon the life of Joseph. It seemed easy to attack Joseph instead of attacking the glory of God on the life of Joseph. But nevertheless the Glory of God upon the life of Joseph was able to save Joseph. Additionally, every move that the brothers took against Joseph only worked to push Joseph closer into his place of destiny. Consequently, whatever the devil is trying to to do inorder to delay, and sabotage the will and purpose of the glory of God rested upon your life is only but pushing you closer into the place of fulfillment. Just like the brothers of Joseph were not able to terminate the destiny of Joseph, they will not be able to sabotage and terminate your destiny and purpose. There is something that has got to be said about the feelings that people catch and get every time they observe the glory of God upon your life. The feelings are a mixed reaction of envy and jealousy. The same evil and Jealousy that Lucifer experienced when God chose mankind to be the crown prince of all things creation and formed. This mixed reaction of envy and Jealousy inspired Lucifer to develop and cultivate rivalry and enemity with man and with God. The envy and jealousy that people get when they observe the glory of God upon your life inspires them to try and sabotage your life. However because God chose you to carry his glory in the earth, God will also fight for you and defeat that tactical sabotage of those who are envious and jealous. In fundamental essence no weapon sharpened against you shall succeed and every tongue that rises against you shall be condemned. This is the promise given by God to those who carry his glory and are able to publicize it. God took sides with Abel and this was clear at any given observation by cain. Cain begot envy and jealousy and these two mixed feelings inspired Cain to kill Abel. The moment God chooses you , God leaves a mark of his divine glory upon your life. When people see this mark on your life it will trigger envy and jealousy which wil inspire people to try and bring about trouble in you life but God will fight for you. When God fights for you there is no doubt that you will both win and overcome all manner of adversity. Fear not and be of good cheer. God took sides with Jesus and he waas hang up on the cross and killed because the world wouldn’t stand the glory of God on his life. But because God was fighting for Jesus , he was able to overcome even death. When God takes sides with you it means that he has chosen you to carry his glory upon the earth and to also publicize it. God is going to remove you from the place where people are envious and jealous of you to the place where you will be admired and celebrated. The glory of God upon the life of Joseph aroused envy and jealousy among his very btothers, but the same glory aroused admiration from a foreign people. Foreigners will celebrate and hold you in high esteem as much as in high regards because of the glory of God upon your life. All you have to do is to remain humble even in the very place of adversity, and hostility. The Lord God is still activately involved in the business of exalting the humble. While aslo bringing to shame the haunghty and the lofty.

Envy, Jealousy and Hatred- Understanding the Human Condition

Genesis 4

Genesis 37:18-36

The brothers of Joseph , sat about and discussed and came to the conclusion.

The conclusion was to kill their own brother Joseph.

They wanted to kill Joseph because they would not stand the favor of God upon the life of Joseph.

The favor of God upon the life of Joseph was so intense that it influenced his ability  to dream about what his destiny and how his future was supposed to look like.

However as much as his dreams were very impressive his brothers were displeased by the dreams that were commercials of the future that was supposed to come.

As the tension against Joseph grew in measure.

The brothers decided to kill him in hope that Joseph and his dreams would come to nothing.

They threw him into an empty pit so that he would die due to the dangerous conditions in the pit.

After a lengthy while, the guilt of leaving Joseph to die in the deep and dark pit influenced the brothers to opt to the idea of selling Joseph into slavery.

Killing him was going to be unbearable a guilt in comparision to just selling Joseph as a slave.

This is all happening to Joseph because of the favor of God upon his life.

His very own brothers find Joseph unbearable cause of the favor of God on his life.

The favor of God upon the life of Joseph stirs up Envy, Jealousy, and Hatred in the center of the inner recesses  of the brothers’ minds and spirits.

At this juncture, do you realize that many times than not you walk into a room and people begin to be unsettled: this is so because they cannot stand the favor of God upon your life.

Its in this moment that you should understand that the favor of God is too heavy on your life cause even folk who do not know you well are filled with Envy, Jealousy and Hatred just because you expressed yourself.

It just so seems that the Almighty God does not just talk with you but he also walks with you.

Needless to wonder that your presence ushers an earthquake impact in the kingdom of darkness simply because you showed up.

The first murder to ever be recorded in Bible Belt was between  two brothers - Cain and Abel.

Abel obtained favor from the Lord Almighty and as a result Cain who did not recieve the favor of God decided to kill Abel.

Envy , Jealousy and Hatred entered the heart of Cain and he killed his brother Abel.

The favor of God upon your life will attract many haters against you life.

Some people will hate even your very existence.

Joseph was revered by many in Egypt while in the house of Potiphar for only his physical appearance.

But the moment it dawned unto them that the favor and the hand of God was on the life of Joseph:- Envy, Jealousy and Hatred was expressed against Joseph.

In refusing to submit to the situation that was created by Potiphar’s wife , the hand of God on the life of Joseph was revealed.

In offering a worthwhile sacrifice unto God the favor and the hand of God was revealed on the life of Abel.

This revelation aroused Envy, Jealousy and Hatred in the heart of Cain prompting him to kill Abel.

Interestingly the devil hates you so much to the extent that he would want to kill you at any given chance.

Simply because the favor and hand of God is upon your life.

But God won’t let it happen. 

Because there is a purpose and an assignment for you to accomplish on the face of the earth.

Envy, Jealousy and Hatred are human conditions that react to the revelation of the hand and favor of God upon a given individual.

People hate you for no obvious reasons and you wonder why: well it’s because of the favor and the hand of God rested upon your life.
