You can laugh at me but it will not hurt me.My son gave this title without any more instructions. After thinking about it I knew what it meant inside but putting it into words was a little more difficult. Daily we all battle something or some thought that nags us. The thought that keeps pulling you down or worse just putting you down. Well those of us who are Christian have an answer that can stop this negativity in its tracks.
In the book “Patience to Dominate” there is a principle called “Unflappable, I shall not be moved. This reflects the attitude of Christian towards any negative situation, especially ill-willed laughter. Stand firm and know that God is there to protect you.
Job 8:20-22
King James Version (KJV)
20 Behold, God will not cast away a perfect man, neither will he help the evil doers:
21 Till he fill thy mouth with laughing, and thy lips with rejoicing.
22 They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling place of the wicked shall come to nought.
Dreams and goals are met with obstacles and these obstacles are primarily in your head. It is not over until you have the last laugh.
Abraham (in Genesis 21) named his son Isaac which means “he laughs”. But this reflects Abraham and Sarah’s unbelieving laugh at the promise of God. Do not laugh at the promises of God or you could cause delay in the blessing coming for you. Focus on the goodness inside of you and the unlimited goodness in the Father.
At destruction and famine thou shalt laugh: neither shalt thou be afraid of the beasts of the earth
Luke 6:20-22
20 And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.
21 Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh
Psalm 64:10
10 The righteous shall be glad in the Lord, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.
It is demonstrated in these scriptures that God already knows that you will be laughed at in your life time. You can turn this into good and literally laugh at destruction and not be afraid of the antagonizer. Get it together the blessing is coming your way. Use your patience to overcome. Confessions have power so let’s use them and say, “Your Laughter does not affect my Christian soul!”
