Tuesday’s Daily Bread - Don’t Let The Poison In...

Scripture

“Those who hate you will be clothed with shame.”

Job 8:22

The Word

It’s easy to get upset and try to set the record straight when someone is talking behind your back, trying to make you look bad, spreading rumors on social media. Some may be saying hurtful, critical things to try to make you feel small, unattractive, not good enough. Don’t let the negative chatter get inside you. There will always be people who are jealous, envious, bullies, haters. Not everyone is going to like you or be for you. Some will jump on every fault and treat you badly. Don’t let that poison in. Let it go. If you keep thinking about it, reliving the hurt, dwelling on what they said, it’s going to contaminate your life.

You don’t have to defend yourself. God is your vindicator. Keep Him on the throne of your heart and He will take care of those who are try to bring you down. Just run your race and stay focused on your goals. Keep doing the right thing, keep honoring God, stay in peace, and He will protect your reputation and take care of your enemies.

Today’s Prayer

Father, thank You for the promise that You are transforming me from glory to glory. Thank You that the steps by which You take me from one level to another are for You alone to decide. I will keep moving forward and honoring You no matter what comes my way.

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Have a Protected Tuesday
