The Narcissists Accusations are from the Devil

When a narcissist is accusing you of doing something kind to manipulate them, they are telling you something important. They are telling you that when they do a kind act they are manipulating.
Narcissists make it a practice of blaming others for their own bad behavior. When we encounter this it is best to ignore them without response or if we are led by the Holy Spirit we can state without reservation; "you are speaking about yourself" and leave it there.
Chances are good they will not listen but at least they know that you know and that you cannot be affected by their nonsense. Narcissists tend to run away when they can no longer control someone's emotions.
They may come back for another pass later but will not remain when their target continues in steadfastness and confidence without emotion.
Our emotions can be the death of us if we use them to evaluate life's experiences. Emotions are the shallowest part of our being and are based on stimuli, they have little substance and should never be relied on to direct our path.
God allows us the wisdom to ignore our emotions to carry on to do His Will. We never deny our emotions, they help us see what still needs work in us. However, we must never allow emotions to be the guiding force behind our decisions.
Our emotions ought to cause us to self-reflect evaluating our own hearts, they can be useful for that, but they cannot be trusted in determining our steps.
Notice in these end times forgiveness without confession and determining emotions as the guiding force behind what we do has destroyed our culture.
"Trust your gut" is the new religion. As born-again believers, we can trust what Christ in us tells us but it is not wise to trust our "feelings or emotional sense" about anything.
We need to be developing godly discernment based on the Bible, not our emotions or anyone else's reactions to us.
Hebrews 5:14
"But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil."
Philippians 1:9-10
"And it is my prayer that your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment, so that you may approve what is excellent, and so be pure and blameless for the day of Christ,"
Our wisdom must come from the Bible and not the prevailing cultural standard based on psychology and Darwinism. These worldly systems say the opposite of what God says and create chaos and misery in the world. God's discernment creates peace and love, as I said; the opposite of God's ways.
It's either God's way of peace or it is the world's way of misery and destruction.

Keep Your Eyes on the Prize!!!!!

I do not lament what is happening now because I believe God when He said it would be like this. We are living in prophetic times, experiencing what the prophets wrote and did not understand, but we do understand now.
Many years ago in my young years, I worked to support our country but now God has clearly told me there is nothing we can do or should do to bring back a country He is disciplining. Our focus now should be on the gospel and helping other believers to walk in the light of Christ no matter what is going on around us.
Our freedoms are being eroded, get used to it, don't try to stop it, and look up as Christ commanded as the last days' progress toward the antichrist rule.
We ought to stop our mourning over the loss of our earthly freedoms and display joy and peace because of our homegoing. We must trust in Christ and the world around us must see us trusting Him for something bigger than this world.
We must not come against what God promised would happen. The only reason to work to revive this dead horse is because we want our own way without hardship or suffering.
If we believe God we will see the signs of this end of times period, accept it, and rejoice that He knows what He is doing and will take care of us. If we die or are incarcerated unjustly, it will be only if it is God's will and He will have a purpose. We can do all things He has for us to do. Do not worry about anything, He will give us strength at the time we need it and not before.
Romans 8:28
"28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose."
Keep your eyes on Jesus Christ, do better than Peter did, He began to sink, we do not have to sink because Christ lives in us.
