Theme : " Cease with betrayals "
Text : Psalms 41: 8-10
7. (41: 8) All my enemies whisper among themselves against me; They think that my misfortune will cause my ruin: 8. (41: 9) He is dangerously affected, There he is lying, he will not get up! 9. (41:10) The very One with whom I was at peace, Who had my trust and who ate my bread, lifts his heel against me. 10. (41:11) You, Lord, have mercy on me and make me well! And I will give them back their due.
Let us remember :
By their meetings and disastrous negotiations, our contemporaries give themselves the false luxury of joining forces against the children of God. They set traps here and there; they cheerfully await our fall in order to celebrate their victory. However, we belong to the God of justice who sees our innocence, who preserves us from evil and who confuses our enemies. Even if part of their plan could come true to the point of capturing and degrading us; Job said: But I know that my Redeemer lives, and that he will rise last on the earth. This confident Job confession of faith is certain. God will never leave us in the hands of unbelievers, disbelievers, idolaters. He will always give glory to his Name by sounding the trumpet of victory. In love with this assurance, let us not be afraid and do not tremble in the face of adversity and betrayal whatever they may be. On the contrary, let us be determined and reassured, God is our defender. Betrayal is the weapon of the weak, it is the recourse of the hypocrites. Excellent Friday and good entry into the weekend. May God teach us to count our days. Amen Alain Louz.-
