TOPIC: – ONE STOMACH PUNCH SENT HIM TO PRISON! WATCH OUT!
It was a typical morning in Lagos with people rushing to catch a bus for their destinations. One man, like everybody else, was also trying to rush into a bus when he mistakenly stepped on an elderly woman who was also trying to catch the same bus.
The woman without hesitation, slapped the man. In response also, the man in his anger punched her stomach. That was the end of the woman. She collapsed and died immediately.
The man was held until policemen came and took him away. This man lived the rest of his life in prison. No doubt the slap from the woman was wrong and provocative.
There are many actions that you can cease from taking – especially one that requires physical combat. Enemies are tricky! Today and daily as 2023 ends, stay away from troublemakers! RESIST PROVOCATION! Do not allow them PROVOKE you into actions that you wouldn’t want to take.
They are planned tools of the wicked ones. If you stay away from trouble, trouble will find a new host. Trouble is like a magnet; it will find you if you keep attracting it.
But if you resist it, it will wither away like a fading mushroom. Many people are not able to stand provocation because they have not been able to discipline themselves about keeping their peace in the midst of provocation. Stay away from the flames of trouble if you wish to avoid getting burnt.
Distance yourself from trouble and protect your peace. DO NOT GIVE THE ENEMY ENTERTAINMENT. They have used trouble to destroy destinies. In the midst of chaos, find solace in staying away from the storm.
Even Jesus knew that trouble is not desirable, neither is proving a point through violence the way to go in any situation. No wonder He said that if someone slaps you on the right cheek, give them the other cheek.
It was Charles R. Swindoll who opined: “Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it.” In other words, you determine the extent an issue will go. If you kill it at the beginning, it does not begin! Learn! Give out at least 8 ODM copies, then send a message to: [email protected] and I shall send you prayers on: “I SHALL END THE YEAR WELL.”
