From Bishop Jemmott’s book Words of Encouragement: Book One

      An opinion is a view or judgment formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge. Everyone has an opinion, and they are not afraid of sharing that opinion with you, even if that opinion is totally false or whether you want to hear their opinion or not. King Solomon, the wisest man to ever live, teaches us two things about opinions. “The fear of human opinion disables; trusting in God protects you from that.” Proverbs 29:25 (MSG)

      The first thing he teaches us is that if you allow people’s opinion to influence your life, it will disable you. And when you become disabled by people’s opinion, you will never reach your full potential and ability; you will never become who God called you to be.

      The second thing he teaches is that if you put your trust in God, you will be protected from the opinion of people. Do you want to be delivered from the opinion of people? Put your trust in God! “Those who trust in The Lord are as secure as Mount Zion; they will not be defeated but will endure forever.” Psalm 125:1 (NLT)

      Be delivered from the opinion of people!

Be Blessed,

Bishop Jemmott
