VIII. MAIN BODY:

Psalms 35:12 (Amplified Bible)

They reward me evil for good to my personal bereavement.

Psalms 35:12 (King James Version)

They rewarded me evil for good to the spoiling of my soul.

A. Unbelievers rendered evil for good

"They reward me evil for good

Psalms 38:20 (Amplified Bible)

They also that render evil for good are adversaries to me, because I follow the thing that is good.

Psalms 109:3-5 (Amplified Bible)

They have compassed me about also with words of hatred and have fought against me without a cause.

In return for my love they are my adversaries, but I resort to prayer.

And they have rewarded and laid upon me evil for good, and hatred for my love.

1 Samuel 19:4-5 (Amplified Bible)

And Jonathan spoke well of David to Saul his father and said to him, Let not the king sin against his servant David, for he has not sinned against you, and his deeds have been of good service to you.

For he took his life in his hands and slew the Philistine, and the Lord wrought a great deliverance for all Israel; you saw it and rejoiced. Why then will you sin against innocent blood and kill David without a cause?

In this world, it's an unfair world, a world of despair and evil. Evil things can happen to good people because these unbelievers are the seed of the enemy, the god of this world, that deceives them to pay evil for good. They always do that.

I remember hearing a conversation between a squatter and a land and field grabber, the land grabber/field grabber said "I will give you a strong coffee" but to my amazement instead of the squatters just thanking the land/field grabber, the squatter said "Well I bet it's not real coffee, it's fake"

How sad it is. It's a gift received with evil. How do we usually receive gifts? We just say thank you. But to my amazement and my sadness, that is the very spirit of this world.

Romans 1:21 (Amplified Bible)

Because when they knew and recognized Him as God, they did not honor and glorify Him as God or give Him thanks. But instead they became futile and godless in their thinking [with vain imaginings, foolish reasoning, and stupid speculations] and their senseless minds were darkened.

Proverbs 17:13 (Amplified Bible)

Whoever rewards evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.

Jeremiah 18:20 (Amplified Bible)

Shall evil be recompensed for good? Yet they have dug a pit for my life. [Earnestly] remember that I stood before You to speak good for them, to turn away Your anger from them.

That is the very spirit of this world today, instead of receiving the LORD JESUS CHRIST as Gift for the Salvation of all mankind, they will just say "i have my own religion", "well, it's not true he's fake", "well, he never really resurrected after crucifixion, because there's no body on the tomb" The last one was a comment from their highest leader from a well-known, major religion, too sad, of course they can't see the body, because the body is seated on the right hand of GOD. Too much sadness filled my heart because of unbelief from this religious leaders. I was reminded of what Bro Eddie Villanueva, have said, "no religion can save you" Yes it is the same with the bible verses and only salvation can found on no one else but only on JESUS CHRIST.

John 14:6 (Amplified Bible)

Jesus said to him, I am the Way and the Truth and the Life; no one comes to the Father except by (through) Me.

Acts 4:12 (Amplified Bible)

And there is salvation in and through no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by and in which we must be saved.

1 John 5:12 (Amplified Bible)

He who possesses the Son has that life; he who does not possess the Son of God does not have that life.

but to their blasphemy of GOD, they honored and lifted up the mother and not the Savior Himself.

B. This spoils the righteous soul

"to my personal bereavement"

Spoiling or "shekol" in Hebrew meaning: bereavement, loss of children, spoiling.

Soul or "nephesh" in Hebrew meaning: a breathing creature, vitality.

ILLUSTRATION: I spend my time working with unbelievers and I'm astonished to the "spoiling of my soul" when I hear their stories everyday 9 hours a day for 45 hours a week. That's why every morning I pour out my soul to GOD to be refreshed, Sunday service is not enough I tell you. You need to wait upon GOD every day and let Him refresh you everyday.

Psalms 26:9 (Amplified Bible)

Gather me not with sinners and sweep me not away [with them], nor my life with bloodthirsty men,

Psalms 33:20 (Amplified Bible)

Our inner selves wait [earnestly] for the Lord; He is our Help and our Shield.

There's huge advantage of "staying" or "abiding" in GOD's Presence, you are made in His Image and you will be like Him, instead of being shaped by your surroundings be shaped by GOD's WORDS in GOD's Divine Presence in your devotions and quiet times.

Psalms 34:22 (Amplified Bible)

The Lord redeems the lives of His servants, and none of those who take refuge and trust in Him shall be condemned or held guilty.

Psalms 35:9 (Amplified Bible)

Then I shall be joyful in the Lord; I shall rejoice in His deliverance.

ILLUSTRATION: Take a look at Lot, he lived among the wealthiest person at that time, but these are homosexuals,

2 Peter 2:8 (Amplified Bible)

For that just man, living [there] among them, tortured his righteous soul every day with what he saw and heard of [their] unlawful and wicked deeds—

until his future is he's the father of her daughter's children and ended up in a cave. What happened? It's because his soul was spoiled and he has no personal relationship with the LORD JESUS CHRIST or GOD at that time unlike his uncle Abraham.

There's a spirit in this world today that will be destroyed with fire, the spirit of homosexuality and lesbianism. Avoid getting your soul spoiled with their lifestyle by staying in the WORD and abiding in GOD's Presence.

John 15:4 (Amplified Bible)

Dwell in Me, and I will dwell in you. [Live in Me, and I will live in you.] Just as no branch can bear fruit of itself without abiding in (being vitally united to) the vine, neither can you bear fruit unless you abide in Me.

or much better if you can and have the ability to do it, win their souls.

James 5:20 (Amplified Bible)

Let the [latter] one be sure that whoever turns a sinner from his evil course will save [that one’s] soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins [procure the pardon of the many sins committed by the convert].

IX. CONCLUSION:

Praise, worship, glorify, adore and thank You very much LORD JESUS for You enabled my soul to bless You and not to forget all Your benefits. I dwell and abide in Your Presence until Your Very Presence fills my soul with all Your Goodness.

Romans 12:2 (Amplified Bible)

Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His sight for you].
