Moral Compass
Jezebel played god
Her husband came home sulking
because he had tried to negotiate
a fair deal with Naboth to own a
vineyard which Naboth inherited
Naboth was not cowered by Ahab's
position or economic strength
Naboth simply told Ahab the vineyard
was inherited and cannot be sold
Ahab didn't like Naboth's response
Jezebel decided to do something
about it
The law of God which was made for
the good of the people was twisted
by Jezebel
She got people to accuse Naboth of
blasphemy and killed him
She did it without any remorse
That is the way those who do not
know God behave
When they see an advantage, they
take it
It doesn't matter what God wants
Their conscience has not been
tuned to think "above" and "Godly"
They only think of self-interest and
present pleasure
The same applies to Doeg the Edomite
during the days of King Saul
He saw David at the city of Nob
He saw David interacting with the
priest of Nob
He saw the priest give David Goliath's
sword but he doesn't know God
He lacked an awareness of the divine
He lacked "divine consciousness"
All he saw was a criminal, a fugitive
being harbored by the good people
of Nob
He told King Saul this
King Saul went to Nob
Saul told his soldiers to kill the priests
Saul's soldiers feared God and said NO
David had obviously lied to the priest
of Nob and told him he came in the
name of the king
The priests explained as much to Saul
But Saul refused to hear
The king was just being paranoid
Saul turned to Doeg the Edomite to
execute his devilish orders
Doeg the Edomite killed all the priests
and their family members
He did it without any restraint because
he didn't know God
There are many characters who do not
know or regard God
They do things just for their selfish
interests
They can sleep with anybody,
lie against anybody,
kill anybody,
hatch devious plots
This is why it is dangerous to be friends
with those who have no regard for God
Especially if you know god and desires
to please him
The knowledge of God brings us into
an awareness of the things that please
him
We strive to please Him daily in everything
we do but a godless person has
no qualms
Like Potiphar's wife, like Delilah,
Like Judas, Like Alexander the coppersmith
beware of aligning with godless people
Beware of positioning yourself against God
Remember how Samuel mourned when
Saul started misbehaving?
That is how those who know God and his
ways mourn when they see those who
ought to know better lose their godly ways
to the common-sense path of man
I am always going to align with God
I will stand with him and for him
I will carry him on my head and in my heart
I am for Jesus,
I am in Jesus and Jesus is my life
Now and always
