Do Not Gloat
“Do not gloat. It is evil in My eyes.
Thank Me for who I AM.
Do not congratulate yourselves or your prophets and say, “We told you so!”
Do not thank Me that a man died.
I foreknew these events and I told you.
Praise Me for My goodness.
Praise Me for My knowledge and wisdom.
Praise Me for My power.
Praise Me for My kindness.
Praise Me for My justice.
Praise Me for My mercy.
But do not EVER praise Me for the death of any human.
He was sincerely devoted to his imperfect understanding of who I Am. His thinking was a mere shadow of who I Am but nevertheless it was devotion and he was a blood-born son of Abraham.
I know what is happening on the earth. I made it.
I made your hearts too.
They have not been reflecting Mine.
I love the world so much I gave My precious Son Jesus to die for all of you so that by believing in My Name you might live. (John 3:16)
My Spirit tells you what is to come. I share this information with you out of My kindness and love.
That same kindness and love rescued you from the pit of unbelief and sin. I brought you back to life from the eternal dead. I adopted you into the lineage of Abraham. I seated you with Me in the Heavenly realms.
Love is who I Am. Love is the fulfillment of My law.
I command you to love. I command you repeatedly to love your enemies, to pray for and bless them, to be generous towards them. (1 Peter 3:9, Proverbs 25:21, Luke 6:27-36, Matthew 5:44)
I command you not to gloat.
So do not gloat.
I am not willing any should perish.
Love your enemies. Bless them. Pray for them. Overcome evil with good.
Do not gloat. It is evil in My eyes.”
“Do not rejoice when your enemy falls, and do not let your heart rejoice when he stumbles, otherwise, The LORD will see [literally “it is evil in His eyes”] and be displeased, and turn His anger away from him.” Proverbs 24:17-18.
“Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For anyone who does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen.” 1 John 4:20.
“But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.” Matthew 5:44.
“On the contrary, if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.” Romans 12:20.
“Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing.” 1 Peter 3:9.
Love for Enemies
“But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn to them the other also. If someone takes your coat, do not withhold your shirt from them. Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. Do to others as you would have them do to you.
If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them. And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do that. And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full. But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.” Luke 6:27-36.

A good reminder Iris Maud
Amen! A lot of gloating and hating right now. Lord we repent from gloating and hating. We repent from praising what hurts Your heart so kind and loving. We want to love how You love. We bless our enemies and forgive.
