Acts 13:44-52
See many times the very people you feel you need to minister to won't accept what you have to say or even believe what you have to say. There will be many people in your life that claim themselves to be Christians but they feel they are holier than thou or that you can't effectively minister to them because of where you 've been or what you've done.
It's in this type of situation that you have to be truly plugged into God because if not their rejection of you can cause you to doubt what God has ordained you to do.
See just as the Jews didn't listen to Paul and Barnabas, they didn't let that get to them they were plugged into God and was able to hear when God said to preach to the Gentiles.
Now what did the Jews do? They got mad and got others hyped up with them to cause a big scene that ran Paul and Barnabas out of town.
But what did the Gentiles do? They received the message & was glad that Paul and Barnabas preached the word.
See where some may reject you know that God has people waiting on you that will receive and welcome you and what you have to say with open arms and open hearts.
See there will be times that you will just have to do just off your feet and keep it moving from amongst those you started with.
1) See there will be some who are jealous of you and your destiny.
2) There will be some who don't want to hear what you have to say.
3) There will be some who are only out to discredit you.
**BUT NO MATTER WHAT YOU JUST KEEP RIGHT ON DOING WHAT GOD HAS TOLD YOU TO DO AND MAKE SURE YOU'RE PLUGGED INTO THE SOURCE OF LIFE. GOD WILL TELL YOU WHERE TO GO AND WHO'S WAITING TO HEAR WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY IF YOU STAY PLUGGED INTO HIM.
Don't get discouraged because you have to dust your feet off on some folks that you once considered to be a root in your life because the truth of the matter is that sometimes the very people you considered to be a root only turned out to be a stubborn leaf that wouldn't fall from the tree.
God bless
