The Truth About Denial
2 Samuel 15:6.......So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel........
We live in a society today, that living in denial is becoming more and more prominent.
Denial of what ? The truth about certain issues that arise in our life. Some how we as humans think by ignoring a situation , or by calling it something other than what it is, is going to make it go away. In some cases we know its going to come back and bite us and still we prolong it. The word of God in 2 Samuel tells about King David's son Absalom plotting a conspiracy to over throw him, and take his Kingship position. In Chapter 15:14 David said:...for we shall not escape Absalom.... What he was doing in reality, was going into denial. David and his men were mighty warriors. The best in the world at that time. There's no way Absalom and his men could possibly beat David in war. David was in a terrible dilemma. He loved his son and did not want harm to come to him , so he went into his denial mode and ran , so as to not be faced with having to kill him. As the story ends, we find that a man named Joab killed Absalom. If David would of kept on top of things concerning his son , perhaps this would never have happened. Only God knows.
Some things that fester in our own lives can be ignored for so long and then it must be dealt with or possibly face dire consequences. I have seen this in the business world many times. If you bring up negative issues , unless there's no possible way around it, you will soon lose their favor and possibly even your job. The whole world seems to be moving in a negative direction calling it positive , but their really in denial of the real truth which is centered around the soon return of Christ Jesus our Lord. Someday all shall be corrected. Keep yourselves in the truth !
God bless you as you seek him !
