PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY: Satanic mentors will not locate you, in the name of Jesus

The word “mentor” does not appear in the Bible, but there are so many instances of more mature and more experienced characters in the Bible, who acted as mentors to those who were younger or newer in faith. Moses mentored Joshua (Deut. 31:23), Elijah mentored Elisha (1Kgs.19) Naomi mentored Ruth.

Jesus mentored His apostles, and Paul mentored Timothy (2 Tim. 4:1-8). What is mentoring? It is being a coach to a willing and ready individual. A mentor is a wise and trusted counsellor or teacher who has recorded a significant level of achievements in his or her field.

In our memory verse, apostle Paul spelt out mentoring as his leadership model – very simple: “Follow my example as I follow the example of Christ.” Who is your mentor? Some persons claim to be Christians but their mentors happen to be big time politicians who speak in fables , wear exquisite attires, live big and ride ostentatious cars.

Gehazi wanted to have the type of clothing like that of the Syrian war leader. He was under the tutelage of a great mentor, from whom he would have inherited great anointing, but he chose to have a worldly mentor in his heart. He ended up a leper throughout his life and generations after him were not spared.

They became sad reminders of this ugly episode in Bible history. Your vision determines who mentors your life. Your life style and character would be impacted by your mentor’s vision and character. A mentor guides by being a good example. Apostle Paul counselled Christians in Philippians 4:9 thus: “Those things which ye have both learnt and received and heard, and seen of me, do; and the God of peace will be with you.”

Do you behave like your father in the Lord whose life is Christlike or a boss in the office who depends on his scheming ability? This is the counsel of the Lord written in Hebrew 13:7, “Remember them which have the rule over you which have spoken unto you the word of God whose faith follow considering the end of their conversation.”

You must not follow a satanic  leader. Learn to be wise to choose a kingdom mentor and be a good example like Apostle Paul in your mentoring and life. May God help you, in Jesus’ name.

SPECIAL NOTE:

Beloved Reader, the sweetest way to enjoy all-round blessings from God in this Year 2021 is to make Jesus Christ your personal Lord & Saviour.  Remember! the Lord Jesus in John 3:3 says, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless ye are born again, ye cannot see the kingdom of God.”

If you are ready to give your life to Christ Jesus, please pray the displayed prayer below in faith:

Lord Jesus, I am a sinner. I confess all my sin, have mercy on me, forgive me all my sin. Give me grace to go and sin no more. I invite You, come into my life. I accept You as my Lord and Personal Saviour. I believe in my heart You died and rose from the dead to save me. Thank You Lord for saving me, in Jesus name Amen.

Beware! this period we are in today is fulfilling this saying of Jesus Christ:
“And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold,” Matt 24:12.

They will be defeated with prayer, because the God that answers prayer with signs & wonders is still alive.

In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, & by the power in the Blood of Jesus, in this year 2021, you will never be a victim to whatever calamity, affliction, or tragedies flying around in the name of Jesus,Amen!

Shalom!
