DO NO HARM!

1 Chronicles 16:22 (NKJV)
Saying, "Do not touch My anointed ones, And do My prophets no harm."

Sometimes bad things happen to good people, but sometimes their calamity is a result of the after effects of harmful actions towards God’s anointed ones. Actions that are not always physical, but can also be emotionally harmful words, even if they are based on facts about their past. God will not repeat what has been covered with the Blood of Jesus, only Satan will bring up a person’s past transgressions and failures.

Proverbs 17:9 (NKJV)
He who covers a transgression seeks love, But he who repeats a matter separates friends.

Micah 7:18 (NKJV)
Who is a God like You, Pardoning iniquity And passing over the transgression of the remnant of His heritage? He does not retain His anger forever, Because He delights in mercy.

I have been attacked both physically and emotionally while serving God and have seen God turn His wrath upon the persons who were involved.

Romans 12:19 (NKJV)
Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, "Vengeance is Mine, I will repay," says the Lord.

One particular event I was actually beaten by a brother in the church because I would not compromise my belief about allowing The Holy Spirit to be our judge here within the church. I was encouraged to have them convicted, but I could only hear what God was saying about not touching His anointed, and how He would repay. Instead, I chose to love them and place them in God’s hands. I had to stay out of the way and watch God allow brokenness and loss to come over them. Their health and finances suffered, jobs were lost and pain became a part of the normal everyday.

But God is not so far away that we can not be saved. I have always asked this question, “if you were a million steps away from God, how many steps will you have to take to get back to God?” The answer is “just one!” I believe God will instantly make up the difference to receive us back and when repentance came to my brother, I was able to receive him and his family back into the covering of church that is under the covering of Christ.

Romans 10:13 (NKJV)
For "whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved."

Repent and call on the Name of the Lord while it is still today.
