Devotion #56 - Stop Bullying

8/18/2021

I've got something to say about bullying. Stop it. Just because we wear different clothes, are of different races, or practice Christianity, doesn't mean that we are not the same people. We all want the same thing. The freedom to practice our big speeches, the freedom to laugh and play with our family, the freedom to safely walk out on the street, and the freedom of a free and peaceful world. The Bible says that we are made up of different moving parts of the body and the body is the Church of Christ and guess Who is on the head? If you guessed Jesus, then you are correct. We are all Christians just waiting to be saved by Christ and be lead to an amazing and awesome family. God's family. But like I'm saying, stop bullying others just for the sake of your pride or to push past your insecurities of your own background to help you feel good about yourself. That is where most of the bullying stems from. One or the two. It is awful how people can often do something like this to make others feel bad about themselves while they do this to make themselves feel better. If you really are having a problem about who you are then you should go see a therapist, His name is God and the homework He will assign you is this: Read the Bible. Or better yet, go to a church that is closest to wherever you live and listen to what the preacher, and God, has to say in the message. Sometimes, inviting those who bully us to come to church work, sometimes they just don't want to go and just want to be left alone. Helping to turn people to God is the best way to get rid of bullying but what must also happen is that the people must turn from their pride and wicked ways in order to be fully converted to God. Take Simon the Sorcerer for instance, he wanted to bribe the apostles into being saved like everyone else but it wasn't until he received a speech about his sin that he fully repented, later on in the years, and turned to God without a shred of his pride left within him. (Acts 8:14-25 NKJV MacArthur Study Bible) Letting go of our pride is not always easy but it is when you let God take the reins and put it in His Hands on getting rid of the pride and sin in your life. Sin and bullying have no place here on Earth or in God's Kingdom. I should know, for I have already repented of my sin and pride and have turned away from my childish needs to focus on no one else's opinion but God's. Don't bully people to make yourselves feel better; it's wrong to both you, the person you bully, and to God. Bullying breaks God's heart every time. Stop it. Run from it and talk to someone. A teacher, a principle, counselor, your parents, an adult, whoever will listen to you, talk to them and God. "Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen." – Ephesians 4:29.

Amen
