John 11:2; When Mary broke her alabaster box at the feet of Jesus, Judas Iscariot protested, and queried why the alabaster box was not sold and given to the poor (see John 12). So as Mary broke her alabaster box, she had an opposition; as she broke her expensive ointment at the feet of the Jesus she loved, there was someone who was bent on giving contrary counsel. As she dared to please the Master, not everyone was happy with her.
Beloved, as you seek to please Jesus, be sure that not everyone will be happy with you. As you take strategic steps that will position you on a higher pedestal, not everyone will applaud you, not everyone will encourage you, not everyone will support you, not everyone will see sense in what you are doing or have done, not everyone will see value in what you have chosen to do, and not everyone would even understand your motive.
If only they knew Mary’s action was for a divine purpose. She was walking in the Spirit. If you desire to walk in the Spirit and fulfill divine purpose, then learn to be deaf to people’s canal opinion especially when they don’t understand your purpose. Today I urge you to block your ears to needless public opinion of walking in the flesh and choose to please Jesus(the word of God) . Walk in the Spirit ( the word of God – Jesus is Spirit and life ). May you continue to walk in the Spirit and not be carnally minded in mighty Jesus name.
