"You Frustrate Me"

Jesus began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again. He spoke this word openly. Then Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him. But when He had turned around and looked at His disciples, He rebuked Peter, saying, “Get behind Me, Satan! For you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men.”

Mark 8:31-33 NKJV

Have you ever had a friend who you didn't see eye to eye with? You were thinking and speaking in line with the things of God....But they were thinking and responding back to you like the world.

So frustrating...It can be frustrating because you love them, but at the same time, you can't allow the foolishness that's coming out of their mouth to be a hindrance to you and what you know God has said.

Jesus knew what God said would happen. So, He had to rebuke that demonic Spirit that rose up in Peter.

Beloved, Stop entertaining Spirits that need to be rebuked

(reprimanded) or they will become a stronghold in your life - someone or something that's holding you back from your next level in God.

Peter may have meant well and all, not wanting Jesus to go through any type of pain.

But here's the thing, the devil often uses people close to you as a weapon against you, when he knows your destiny is greater than you.

Jesus destiny to save us all was greater than Him, and His destiny for you is greater than just you.

Therefore, According to Isaiah 54:17 you have the legal right to condemn (to shut down) any tongue that rises up against you...Your destiny will not be thwarted.

Selah- Pause & Think About That!

Until Next Sunday.
