Satan Has Asked for You
Satan Has Asked for You —
That he may sift you as wheat!
The LORD begin to speak to my heart tonight about loyalty in the house!
Loyalty is the quality of being loyal, having integrity and honor among family!
Many have taken the scripture regarding Noah and his sons to demonstrate loyalty to spiritual parents, when in all actuality this scripture really brings out and demonstrates loyalty among families, both spiritual families and the natural families!
All of which God understands and He values.
In scripture, in the Book of Genesis, the ninth chapter Noah after going through a great trial in the floods, got drunk, but in his weakest moments, he was uncovered.
Ham, one of his sons whom he had raised up from a child and had been there throughout his entire life disrespected his father in one of his most weakest and most vulnerable moments, was involved in a sordid family incident.
Scripture tells us that as Noah’s family worked to reestablish civilization after the flood, Noah became “a man of the soil” and grew a vineyard (Genesis 9:20). However; one day, he became drunk after becoming intoxicated with some of the wine he had produced.
Ham one of his sons entered Noah’s tent and found his father there, passed out and naked. And, instead of doing the right thing Ham told his brothers of their father’s condition, and Shem and Japheth (the other brothers demonstrated integrity, respect and loyalty did the honorable thing) walked backward into the tent, their faces turned respectfully away, and covered their father with a garment, (verses 22–23).
However; when Noah awoke, he realized “what his youngest son had done to him.” Noah blessed Shem and Japheth for their action, but he omitted Ham from the blessing.
In addition, Noah cursed Ham and Ham’s son, Canaan, who it seems had also been involved in the matter somehow.
God desires that we as a Church family and our natural families honor Him first and our natural and spiritual families as well.
But we must realize, whenever God is left out of the equation this may not be feasible!
After all Noah had done for his family, one of his sons did not exemplify the character of Christ in his life or the character of his father Noah!
Noah, as we know in scripture, found grace and favor in the eyes of God. Even when God looked down from heaven and was displeased with the hearts of man, there was one man God was pleased with and whom He favored, who was Noah — unlike Noah’s son, Ham!
You would think after much training Ham would have learned from his father, but instead Ham had the heart of his father: Satan!
Scripture tells us Noah was in his own tent and what was going on in the privacy of his tent should have stayed there!
Many times we tell things that are best left covered up in the family, like Ham did! Things that will leave family nakedness revealed for all the world to see.
But, even the New Testament tells us that above all things, have fervent love for one another, for “love will “cover” a multitude of sins.”
Instead of Ham demonstrating love for his family, he aired his father’s weaknesses when he was most vulnerable, in the privacy of his own tent!
His heart, intention, motives and agendas were all evil! His intentions were to mock, criticize, demean and to wound and or to hurt God’s servant!
Jesus, our most perfect example, gave the disciples a stern lesson regarding what family truly means;
“Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?” And He stretched out His hand toward His disciples and said, “Here are My mother and My brothers! For whosoever {shall do the will of my Father} which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother,” (Matthew 12:47-50)
My LORD, it has come a great awakening in the house and many are allowing their love to kill them and to guide their emotions!
Satan will use any one of us to destroy us by using people close to us!
Look at Job in the midst of his most vulnerable hour of suffering Satan uses his wife! Job rebukes her and said, “You speak as one of the foolish women speaks. Shall we indeed accept good from God, and shall we not accept adversity?” In all this Job did not sin with his lips.” (Job 2:10)
No doubt his wife meant well and was tired of seeing him suffer and just wanted his pain to leave but at what price?
Peter one of Christ spiritual son did the exact same thing to Christ telling Christ he could not suffer His fate; however, the Son of Man told him I must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
Peter got so angry he got out of his place and rebuked The LORD sharply! Jesus turned around and looked at his disciples, then reprimanded Peter. “Get away from me, Satan!” He said. “You are seeing things merely from a human point of view, not from God’s.” (Matthew 8: 32-33)
So many in this season have become blinded by a human standpoint instead of seeing things from the heart of God!
