AFTERNOON TEA☕ TUESDAY FEBRUARY 11, 2025. DON'T LET THE POISON IN.  TODAY’S SCRIPTURE: Job 8:22, NKJV- Those who hate you will be clothed with shame. TODAY’S WORD: It’s easy to get upset and try to set the record straight when someone is talking behind your back, trying to make you look bad, spreading rumours on social media. Some may be saying hurtful, critical things to try to make you feel small, unattractive, and not good enough. Don’t let the negative chatter get inside you. There will always be people who are jealous, envious, bullies, and haters. Not everyone is going to like you or be for you. Some will jump on every fault and treat you badly. Don’t let that poison in. Let it go. If you keep thinking about it, reliving the hurt, dwelling on what they said, it’s going to contaminate your life. You don’t have to defend yourself. God is your vindicator. Keep Him on the throne of your heart, and He will take care of those who try to bring you down. Just run your race and stay focused on your goals. Keep doing the right thing, keep honouring God, stay in peace, and He will protect your reputation and take care of your enemies. PRAYER FOR TODAY: Father, thank You that I can shut the door on the negative that comes against me and keep what You have promised and said about me close to my heart. Thank You that You are my vindicator, and none of these things need to move me. I believe that I will rise above the negatives. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
