TURNING THE OTHER CHEEK

March 18, 2024 • Dr Zubeda Sing, Pastor Zubeda Sing

But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also. Matthew 5v39

 

Hello, you mean I must accept the slap and then turn and give my other cheek also. You have got to be crazy, I will not be taken advantage of, nor will I be a doormat. Well, that is a justifiable response, considering our present world and the need for conforming to the right appearances before men. Yet that is not how Jesus works. We are called to be his servants. In this God life we have been called to serve. When serving we represent our master, Jesus Christ. We are his representative and also ambassadors for Christ. The secret to this life is, an ambassador when sent to another country, even though he is in another country, he is not subject to the laws of that country. He has diplomatic immunity. What does that mean. It means the law of that land is not what he lives by. He lives by the laws of his own country. He is not even subject to the economy of that country.

 

We are citizens of heaven, we enjoy diplomatic immunity. We do not have to be subject to the economy of this world. No we are sowers of into the kingdom of God so we reap the benefits of overflow and abundance because that economy never fails. Our God owns the cattle on a thousand hills and all the silver and gold are his. So as his sons and daughters we live in the abundance and we suffer no lack, we live in a no lack zone. Now do you understand why you are asked to turn the other cheek. It is merely yielding to the holy spirit to change your character, into the character of God. you are now transformed into Christ-likeness which benefits you to enjoy the goodness of God. when you know him and his presence, nothing in this world can stop you. You do not suffer wrong when you give in to God, you are promoted to great and mighty things.

 

CONFESSION/PRAYER

Holy Spirit I yield to you so you can make me more and more like Jesus. Jesus lived on earth, yet he enjoyed the benefits of heaven. He said he could call down a host of angels to help him at any time, yet he chose to suffer. We stand in his stead and we have the name of Jesus, we have the blood and we have the word of God to overcome any situation in this life.

Turning the other cheek is not a loss to me but a gain for the kingdom of God.

Hebrews 7:25 for which reason also He is able to be saving completely and forever those who come to God through Him, being always alive for the purpose of continually making intercession for them.   Prayer is communion with God. Prayer is friendship with God. A friend is someone we communicate with, there is no restrictions in our communication with our friend, because we are relaxed when communicating with them. We have common interests and there is always something we can talk about.   It is the same with our heavenly Father, we are friends, we are Father and daughter/son, we never have to feel any restrictions when we are talking to our God. We can chat with Him about any subject. We can sit and complain to him and get advice from him at any time of the day or night. He gives us direction in life and he also gives us a warning of things to come so we are aware of the dangers in any area of our life. This friendship is made easy by the presence of the Holy Spirit in our lives. He gave us the holy Spirit as our teacher and guide. The Holy Spirit teaches us to pray and he opens the door in our hearts to speak to our heavenly Father. Please take advantage of this privilege. This privilege is given to every believer and our Heavenly Father waits on us to call on him. Please invite him in, He is waiting on you.   Jesus is our faithful high priest, he is seated at the right hand of the Father making intercession for us. What he is doing is preparing the way, talking on our behalf to the Father, so when we go to the Father, he has already been told about what we want to say so he is prepared and the answer is already given. Grace has already provided. Thank you, Jesus you are our Faithful prayer partner.   CONFESSION/PRAYER Jesus is our faithful high priest, he is our faithful prayer partner. Prayer is my time with my heavenly Father. I cherish this privilege of having a friend that sticks closer than a brother. I am never lonely as I have someone to talk to every moment of everyday. In my weakness, he is made strong and when I need comfort, the Holy Spirit comforts me.

The tongue of the wise makes knowledge appealing, but the mouth of a fool belches out foolishness. Prov 15v2   The working of God, through His spirit makes us people who are appealing because of our speech. We are trained to be wise and speak with discretion by the Holy Spirit. Gracious speech makes people listen when we speak. Wisdom from Jesus flows through us and as we yield to the Holy Spirit, this wisdom becomes a sought after gift in the market place. The wisdom of God in our lives, gives us discernment and as we walk this walk we learn when and how to speak. The anointing teaches us how to be a servant and when to speak with authority to silence the devil.   We are gentle as lamb, however we are as wise as serpents, knowing when to speak and when not to speak. We speak with love when needed and we address devils and demons with authority when we need to. We are the servants of the Most High God, like Stephen in the book of acts, they were not able to withstand his speech as he spoke with the intelligence of the Holy Spirit. That same intelligence and wisdom is in you. Give the Holy Spirit a chance in your life, become a servant in training. You are a king and a priest, know when to be a priest and when to be the king. The priest is in his prime when he is praying and interceding. The king knows that his words have power and when he speaks, things are established. He decrees a thing and it is established. A king knows who he is. Know your place so you speak a word in season to him who is weary at the right time and the right place. You are blessed.   CONFESSION/PRAYER I am anointed with power. I have the unction to function in every circumstance. The miraculous ability of God’s power works within me. I speak the good news to the poor, declaring freedom from poverty. I announce deliverance to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind. God has made me the voice of peace in the midst of the chaos in the market place.
