The Whisperer,
.
Part 4:
“The Accuser of the Brethren”
To read Part 1, click here… MARCH 26 (The Whisperer: No Gossips In Heaven!)
.
.
.
.
“for the accuser of our brethren is cast down,
which accused them before our God day and night.”
Revelation 12:10
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
This above verse reveals that Satan’s great purpose is to accuse God’s people on a 24/7/365 basis.
.
The very name, “The Devil”, means “The Slanderer”!
.
Yes, right back there in the Garden, Satan even accused God Himself of being unfair!
.
And so, how much more does Satan accuse us sinners!?
.
.
.
.
.
“A WHISPERER SEPARATES CHIEF FRIENDS”
.
Listen…“A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends.” 
Proverbs 16:28
.
Yes, Satan is a whisperer, always ready to quietly accuse and criticize into any receptive ear!
.
And those who take the name of Jesus on their lips should never get the notion that they are somehow above or beyond the Tempter’s poisonous whisperings.
.
.
.
.
.
“…LEST ANY ROOT OF BITTERNESS SPRINGING UP…DEFILING MANY”
Hebrews 12:15
.
One great problem with listening to Satan’s accusations and criticisms is that it obviously sours the hearers of Satan’s gossip against those whom Satan has whispered about.
.
In other words, whether or not Satan’s criticisms and accusations are true, partly true, or even totally fabricated, Satan’s willing hearers cannot help but have all such criticisms begin to fester and grow, as a bitter root within their own heart.
.
.
.
.
.
BITTER SPOUSES
.
Many marriages (and other relationships) have been soured, and even destroyed, because one or both spouses have allowed the Evil One to poison their mind with false accusations, or even true about their spouse.
.
Thus, the relationship progressively deteriorates.
.
Such persons must seek after the Lord with heartfelt repentance and tearful pleas for marital help and for personal repentance and spiritual renewal to resolve all such relationship attacks by Satan.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
SATAN STEALS OUR PERFECT PEACE
.
One great problem with listening to Satan’s whisperings, is that this is how this “Accuser of our Brethren” gains access into our hearts and minds. And once we allow him access, he often begins to torment us with all sorts of “evil surmisings” about the motives of others. (1st 
Timothy 6:4)
.
Thus, by allowing “the god of this world”, Satan, to solidify us into this sin, we soon become transformed into veritable “judges of evil thoughts”! James 2:4
.
We must remember the Wise Man’s advice…“Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee. Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee. Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established. Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.” Proverbs 4:24-27
.
Yes, to guard the avenues to the soul is our first and foremost duty!
.
.
.
.
.
UNSEEN EVIL ANGELS WHISPERING
.
The main point to be made in today’s devotional is this: If I am having critical thoughts about another person (or even against the Lord), there is a good possibility that the old “Accuser of our Brethren” has been whispering in my ear.
.
Listen to the remedy for all such critical thoughts…“Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.” Psalm 101:5
.
Whenever the whisperer puts a critical, slanderous accusation in my mind, this above verse counsels me to cut off the accuser, whether it be an invisible spirit, or even a human! Simply do not entertain any such accusations! In such cases, silence is golden!
.
.
.
.
.
“IN HER TONGUE IS THE LAW OF KINDNESS”
.
Our supreme Role-Model, Jesus did not engage in gossip nor slandering. 
.
Oh yes, He scolded. But He scolded to one’s face, and not behind their back!
.
Listen to this description of the virtuous woman…“She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.” Proverbs 31:26
.
This should likewise be describing all Christians, too!

“WHO SHALL ABIDE?”
.
And here is just one more promise for those who finally overcome this soul-defiling habit…“LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill? He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart. He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour…He that doeth these things shall never be moved.” Psalm 15:1-3, 5
.
As this above verse reveals, those who are truly saved will increasingly exhibit these qualities.
.
.
.
.
.
A WHISPERER IS UNSAVED
.
And consequently, this next verse reveals the sad condition of those who are not saved…“He that hideth hatred with lying lips, and he that uttereth a slander, is a fool.” Proverbs 10:18
.
The name, “fool” in the Bible is synonymous with being unsaved. And so, one might say, “and he that utters a slander is unsaved”. Of course, God’s people may fall into this sin. But the true worshiper of God will be overcome with grief and repentance, while the false believer has no problem with uttering such slanders.
.
.
.
.
.
“BE AFFLICTED AND MOURN AND WEEP!”
James 4:9
.
And so, the encouragement for today is to cry out to God for deliverance from all such slandering behavior.
.
And if I do come to realize that my rude and unruly tongue is indeed a symptom of my unsaved spiritual condition, then I can assuredly go before the throne of grace and cry out for mercy and Salvation!
.
Listen… Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the Devil, and he will flee from you. Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you….Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.” (To read entire passage go here…James 4:4-12 )

TODAY’S FEATURED HEAVENLY SIGN

“THE SCORNER (THE PHARISEE)”
.
Listen to the following revelation concerning the evil which exists within the hearts of men…“For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, AN EVIL EYE, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.” Mark 7:18-23
.
Please tilt your head to the left. Do you see a man with a very long pointed nose. 
(Obviously, the sketch to the right is just an exaggeration in order to help you find the face in the photo to the left.)
.
Do you see an angry look? His right eye-brow is raised as if he is judging.
.
This second face in the Moon appears to be that of a combination of a man as well as a fox. Or maybe a wolf. Doesn’t he have a long narrow nose like a wolf or fox? Maybe even a dog. Nevertheless, the expression on his face, as he appears to look down upon the Earth, is that of scorn. Unlike the first Moon-man’s sad shock and awe; this ‘man/fox/wolf/dog’ appears to be that of anger and scorn. As if he is disgusted at the sinful planet below.
.
He is very moral, you see!
