Being used as A Friend.....




13 Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.
Proverbs 17:13 King James Version (KJV)

People complain that sometimes they get the worst out of been good to people, the ones that hurt the most is friends that pay you back in ways you did not treat them.
My Pastor will always say, “They did it to JESUS, why don’t you expect people to do it to you (Matthew 27:11-13).” It feels bad to be used as a Christian, when they need help they will call you, but when you need them, they are nowhere to be found. JESUS in Matthew 5:39-48, commanded us to go the extra-mile for people, and at the end of the day you will may not get a return of your giving, from the person you helped….. But you know the GOD who sees in secret rewards openly, know that you are working for a greater purpose (Matthew 6:4).

39 But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
40 And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also.
41 And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.
42 Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.
43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?
48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
Matthew 5:39-48


I see that a couple of people are fetish, in the sense they believe someone will do something evil with the money given to people like beggars…. You do not need to be afraid of anyone, forget the people for you do not work for them, in Proverbs 17:13, it says evil will never leave the house of anyone that decides to pay you evil for whatever good you have done…… Don’t be afraid you are not of this world…..
Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
1 John 4:4 King James Version (KJV)

JESUS has conquered every power and authority, that wants to rise against, you work for a BOSS that stands above all, anyone that decides to do anything fetish with your gifts or favour, know that they are doing it to the one who sent you…… Have #FAITH and know that you have played your part it is up to JESUS to stand for you and HE will.

35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
Matthew 25:35-41

Have an open heart, be ready to give, even when not appreciated, in Matthew 24:12 it says the heart of man will wax cold, don’t worry it is expected overlook it, you are more than that, in Proverbs 22:7 says you stand above as you are the giver, the giver’s hand is always on top, while the receiver is below.
12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
Matthew 24:12 King James Version (KJV)


Appreciate GOD for the opportunity to give, all you have you were given to.

For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?
1 Corinthians 4:7 King James Version (KJV)

When you give you are laying up treasures in HEAVEN!!

19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Matthew 6:19-21 King James Version (KJV)
