People have not offended, but because they have offended your friend, you inherit your friend’s enemy. Be careful the enemy you inherit.
You don’t even have an idea that the one you are plotting against is the one God delights to honor.
As you are PLOTTING against, GOD IS PLANNING FOR!
Daniel was plotted against and God was planning for. Daniel’s sin was because he found favor with the king and the so called SONS OF THE SOIL connived to plot against him in the masters of his worship. Dan.6
Haman ( another SON OF THE SOIL) was another man who was just irritated at Mordecai for no reason at all.As Haman dug a hallow for Mordecai, God was planning to honor him. Esther 6. Infact eventually Haman was buried in the same fallow he dug for Mordecai ( sermon for another day).
As the Babylonians ( SONS OF THE SOIL) plotted against the 3 Hebrew boys, God was planning for. Dan 3
Is it not amazing that people who think they know more than you are always the plotters against?
Is it not amazing that people who think they have upper hands in certain areas are the ones who plot against?
Is not not amazing that the ones who think they have the power to oppress are the ones who plot against.
I call them SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF THE SOIL!!
They think they know their ways more than you!
They know people more than you!
They have connections more than you.
They can do and undo, so they think.
In all these three scenarios , those who inherited enemies, perished with their so called friends.
Be careful! Don’t inherit people’s enemies because the enemy you inherited might just be the one God delights to honor.
