"Bullets"
David's oldest brother Eliab heard him talking with the soldiers. Eliab was angry with him and said, “What are you doing here, anyway? Who's taking care of your little flock of sheep out in the desert? You spoiled brat! You came here just to watch the fighting, didn't you?”
1 Samuel 17:28 CEV
In a moment of anger, David's oldest brother called him a spoiled brat!
AND often times, the harshest words imaginable will come from those who should have known better.
David's oldest brother should have known better, he should have been his younger brother's defender, his protector, his brother's keeper. (Genesis 4:9) INSTEAD, Eliab let his anger get the best of him and in that moment...He said what he said.
I know many of you can relate...You've taken words to your chest like bullets from loved ones who should have known better, but still they said what they said.
With no apology, they said, what they said and while it's not gun violence or even considered a crime...Still you have been severely affected by how little they think of you, by the lack of respect they have for you and your feelings.
But that was then, TODAY it's a new day in the month of August...August being the 8th month, 8 is the number of New Beginnings. So, as a part of your new beginning, I decree and declare: Words won't hurt at all any more. Words from that break up, from that divorce, words from parents or like David, words from your own sibling will not hurt at all anymore, severely affect you any more.
You will rise up out of the maze of what was said about you with a new found strength....You can do all things through Christ who strengthens you.
Philip 4:13 ALL things including being strong enough to handle unfair persecution from the most unlikely loved one.
I decree and declare:
Weapons made to attack you won't be successful; words spoken against you won't hurt at all...
Isaiah 54:17 CEV
