“Bazobona ibara, abita ikibi iciza, iciza bakacita ikibi; bagashira umwiza mu gishingo c’umuco, n’umuco mu gishingo c’umwiza; bagashira ibirura mu gishingo c’ibisosa, n’ibisosa mu gishingo c’ibirura!” (Yesaya 5:20)

Turi mu gihe c’isi aho icaha kitagitera isoni.
Ico Imana yanse mw’ijambo ryayo, abantu baragihindura bakavuga ko ari “uburenganzira”, “ukwigenga” canke “iterambere.”

Ivyaha bikomeye nko kubesha, gusambana, kwihora, igiturire, ivyo kurementaniriza abandi, n’ubwibone ubu ntibisigaye bitera isoni, ahubwo bifatwa nk’ibisanzwe.

Isi yarahinduye amajambo yoroshe ibintu:

Kubesha bisigaye vyitwa ubwenge bwo mu kazi;

Gusambana bisigaye vyitwa kwikiza umusonga;

Kwihora bisigaye vyitwa ubutungane bw’umuntu;

Ubwibone busigaye bwitwa kutisuzugura;

Ubukunzi bw’inda busigaye bwitwa ubushake bwo kugira byinshi.

Ariko ico abantu basigaye bihanganira, Imana yo iracagihana.
Icaha ntigicureha kigumana ubukana kuko abantu bagihinduye igisanzwe.
Iyo umuntu atihannye, icaha kibandanya gusenya ubuzima n’imibereho y’abantu.

1. Iyo Ukuri gusubiriwe n’Ububeshi

Kubesha vyabaye umuco mu buzima bwa buri munsi.
Abantu barabesha kugira ngo batsinde, bashimwe, canke birinde ingorane.
Ariko Yesu yaravuze ati:
« (Satani)Iy’ avuga ibinyoma, avuga ivyiwe, kukw ar’ umunyabinyoma, kand’ ari we se wavyo. » (Yohana 8:44)

Buri kubesha kwose kutandukanya umuntu n’Imana, kuko Imana ari Ukuri (Yohana 14:6).
Ibinyoma vyica ukwizerana abantu basanzwe bafitaniye, bikica ubutungane, bigatuma n’umubano mu bantu wubakwa ku kinyoma.

Akarorero:
Umucuruzi arabesha abakiriya kugira ngo yunguke, umunyeshuri ariba mu bizami, umuyobozi ahindura ibiharuro — vyose bigasa nk’ibidafise akamaro, ariko bigira ingaruka mbi ku muryango w’abantu.

“Iminwa y’ibinyoma n’igisesema k’Uhoraho, Arikw abakora ivy’ ukuri ni bo bamuhimbara.” (Imigani 12:22)

2. Iyo Gusambana Bibaye Ibisanzwe

Kera gusambana vyafatwa nk’ibitey’isoni; ubu vyabaye ibisanzwe.
Ibinyamakuru, filime n’indirimbo vyerekana gusambana nk’ikintu kigezweho.
Ariko Imana ivuga iti:
“Ntusambane.” (Kuva 20:14)

Gusambana ntigusenya gusa ingo, gusenya imitima, bigatera ibikomere bidakira, rimwe na rimwe inkurikizi zigashika no ku bana.
Isi iravyemera, ariko Imana ivuga ko ari ubuhemu kuri Mpwemu. (Malaki 2:14)

Akarorero:
Umugabo n’umugore baguma mu kwizerana n’aho batezwa ibigeragezo — berekana icubahiro c’Imana mu gihe isi yo yibereyemwo guhemukirana gusa.

3. Iyo Kwihora kwasubiriye Kubabarira

Kubabarira ubu bifatwa nk’ubujuju.
Isi ishigikira kwihora no kugirira abandi nabi iyo batubabaje.
Ariko Ijambo ry’Imana rivuga riti:
“Ntimwihorane, ariko muhe uburyo uburake bg’Imana: kuko handitswe, ng’ Uguhora n’ukwanje, ni jewe nzobasubiriza mu nkoko, ni k’Uhoraho agize.” (Abaroma 12:19)

Kwihora ntigutanga amahoro; ahubwo vyongera agahinda.
Uwihora aba imbohe y’urwanko, naho uwubabarira aba afise amahoro.
Icubahiro c’umukristo si uguhora, ahubwo ni ugukurikira Yesu yababariye abamubamvye ku musaraba.

4. Iyo Ubwibone Bwasubiriye Kwicisha Bugufi

Muri iki gihe, ubwibone bwitwa “kwiha agaciro.”
Abantu basigaye bigishwa kwishira hejuru no kwikunda.
Ariko Bibiliya ivuga iti:
“Imana irwanya abibona, arikw abicisha bugufi ibaha ubuntu.” (Yakobo 4:6)

Ubwibone bwugara urugi rw’ubuntu bw’Imana.
Butuma umuntu yibwira ko ashoboye vyose, akibagira Imana.
Inkurikizi nyinshi z’ugutakaza ibintu, amatati n’ugusenyuka kw’ingo ziboneka mu bwibone butamenyekanye.

5. Ubukunzi bw’inda bwasubiriye Urukundo

Gukunda amafaranga kuruta ikindi kintu kwabaye umuco.
Abantu ntibagikunda uko umuntu ameze, ahubwo bakunda ivyo afise.
Yesu yaravuze ati:
“Ntimushobora gusaba Imana n’Itunga.” (Matayo 6:24)

Ubukunzi bw’inda, bukwegera umuntu mu biturire, mu bukozi bw’ikibi, n’ishari.
Butuma abantu batagira impuhwe kandi bakarementaniriza abandi.
Sosiyete ikunda amafaranga ntishobora gutinya Imana.

6. Ingaruka ku buzima bwo mu mpwemu

Iyo ibibi bibaye ibisanzwe, sosiyete irangara:

Umutimanama urasinzira,

Ubutungane burasambuka,

Ingo zirasambuka,

Amahoro aravaho.

“Iy’ abagororotsi bagwiriye, abantu baranezerwa,
Arikw iy’ umunyakibi aganza, abantu baraniha.” (Imigani 29:2)

Si ikibazo c’imico gusa, n’ikibazo co mu mpwemu.
Icaha gihabwa agaciro gituma umuco w’icaha ukura, kandi ico gishobora gutuma Imana ihana igihugu.

7. Umuhamagaro ryo Kwihana

Ariko hari icizere.
Imana ntihinduka, kandi imbabazi zayo ziracakora.

“Maz’ abantu banje bitirirwa izina ryanje ni bicisha bugufi bagasenga barondera mu nyonga hanje, bagahindukira bakareka ingeso zabo mbi, nuko nanje nzokwumva ndi mw ijuru, mparire ivyaha vyabo, nkize n’igihugu cabo.” (2 Ngoma 7:14)

Guhinduka ntibitangurira mu nzego, bitangurira mu mitima.
Igihugu gishobora gukira igihe abantu bahitamwo gukurikira ukuri, kugororoka, kubabarira, no gukunda ubutungane.
Ico gihe, ikuzo ry’Imana riragaruka.

IGISABISHO:
Mwami, fasha amaso yacu kubona icaha nk’uko ukibona.
Dukize umuco wo kwita ikibi iciza.
Dukangurire umutimanama wacu, dusubize ubwoba bwawe mu mitima.
Duhe inkomezi zo kubaho dukurikiza ukuri kwawe, n’aho isi yakwibagiye.
Ubuzima bwacu bube umuco muri iki gihe cy’umwijima.
Subiza icubahiro cawe, ubutungane bwawe, n’ikuzo ryawe mu bantu bawe.
Mu izina rya Yesu Kristo, Amen.

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.” (Joshua 1:9)

God has given us power and spiritual weapons to overcome evil (Ephesians 6:11).
But having the weapons is not enough — we need courage and strength to use them.
A well-armed soldier without courage is already defeated. Likewise, a believer who knows the Word but lacks inner strength cannot stand firm in trials.

Even Moses, full of God’s anointing, confessed his weakness:
“I cannot carry all these people by myself; the burden is too heavy for me.” (Numbers 11:14)
God gave him strength, and he told Joshua, “Be strong and courageous” (Deuteronomy 31:7). Even the strongest need courage from God.

David also faced fear and distress, but Scripture says:
“David found strength in the LORD his God.” (1 Samuel 30:6)

True courage does not come from the flesh but from communion with God.
When we are tired like Elijah in the wilderness, God does not condemn us; He strengthens us to go on (1 Kings 19:7). That’s why the prophet says:
“He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.” (Isaiah 40:29)

Our daily prayer should be:
“Lord, give me strength and courage.”

It is not a prayer of weakness, but of faith — for only God can turn fear into power and discouragement into victory.

«Ne t’ai-je pas donné cet ordre: Fortifie-toi et prends courage? Ne t’effraie point et ne t’épouvante point, car l’Éternel, ton Dieu, est avec toi dans tout ce que tu entreprendras.» (Josué 1:9)

Dieu nous a donné le pouvoir et les armes spirituelles pour vaincre le mal (Éphésiens 6:11).
Mais posséder les armes ne suffit pas: il faut le courage et la force pour les utiliser. Un soldat bien armé sans courage est déjà vaincu.
De même, un chrétien équipé de la Parole mais sans force intérieure ne peut tenir face à l’épreuve.

Moïse, malgré l’onction de Dieu, a souvent avoué sa faiblesse:
«Je ne puis pas, à moi seul, porter tout ce peuple, car il est trop pesant pour moi.» (Nombres 11:14)
Et Dieu lui donna la force. Josué, son successeur, reçut le même ordre: «Fortifie-toi et prends courage.» (Deutéronome 31:7)
Même les plus forts ont besoin que Dieu renouvelle leur courage.

David aussi connut la peur et la détresse, mais la Bible dit:
«David reprit courage en s’appuyant sur l’Éternel, son Dieu.» (1 Samuel 30:6)

Le vrai courage ne vient pas de la chair, mais de la communion avec Dieu.
Quand nous nous sentons fatigués comme Élie au désert, Dieu ne nous condamne pas, mais il nous fortifie pour continuer (1 Rois 19:7).
C’est pourquoi le prophète dit:
«Il donne la force à celui qui est fatigué.» (Ésaïe 40:29)

Notre prière doit être simple :
«Seigneur, donne-moi la force et le courage.»

Ce n’est pas une prière de faiblesse, mais de foi. Car Dieu seul peut transformer notre peur en puissance et notre découragement en victoire.

«Mbese si jye ubigutegetse? Nuko komera ushikame, ntutinye kandi ntukuke umutima, kuko Uwiteka Imana yawe iri kumwe nawe aho uzajya hose. » Yosuwa abwira abantu yuko bazambuka Yorodani» (Yozuwa 1:9)

Imana yaraduhaye imbaraga n’intwaro zo mu mwuka ngo dutsinde ibibi (Abefeso 6:11). Ariko kugira intwaro ntibihagije — dukeneye ubutwari n’imbaraga kugira ngo tuzikoreshe.
Umusirikare ufite intwaro ariko adafite ubutwari, aba yatsinzwe mbere yo kurwana.
N’uko umukristo ufite Ijambo ry’Imana ariko nta mbaraga zo mu mutima, ntashobora guhagarara mu bigeragezo.

Na Mose, wari wuzuye amavuta y’Imana, yaravuze ati:
«Sinabasha guheka ubu bwoko bwose jyenyine, kuko buremereye simbushobore.» (Kubara 11:14)
Imana yaramuhaye imbaraga kandi nawe akomeza Yozuwa, wari agiye kumusimbura, amubwira ati:
«Komera ushikame, kuko uzajyana n’aba bantu mu gihugu Uwiteka yarahiye ba sekuruza ko azabaha, nawe uzakibahesha ho gakondo.» (Gutegeka 31:7) N’abakomeye bakeneye ubutwari buva ku Mana.

Dawidi na we yigeze kugira ubwoba, ariko Bibiliya igira iti:
«Dawidi yikomereza ku Uwiteka Imana ye.» (1 Samweli 30:6)

Ubutwari nyakuri ntibuva mu mubiri, buva mu mubano n’Imana. Iyo twumva ducitse intege nk’uko byagendekeye Eliya mu butayu, Imana ntitureka, ahubwo iradukomeza (1 Abami 19:7).
Ni yo mpamvu umuhanuzi avuga ati:
«Ni yo iha intege abarambiwe, kandi utibashije imwongeramo imbaraga.» (Yesaya 40:29

Isengesho ryacu rya buri munsi rikwiye kuba iri:
«Mwami, mpa imbaraga n’ubutwari.»

Si isengesho ry’ubugwari, ahubwo ni iry’ukwizera — kuko Imana yonyine ishobora guhindura ubwoba bukaba imbaraga, n’ukwiheba kukaba intsinzi.

«None si jewe nkwibaririye, nti Shikama, ushire amanga? Nuko ntutinye, nturanduke umutima, kuko jewe Uhoraho Imana yawe ndi kumwe nawe ah’ uzoja hose.» (Yosuwa 1:9)

Imana yaraduhaye ububasha n’ibigwanishwa vyo mu mpwemu kugira ngo tubashe gutsinda ikibi (Abanyefeso 6:11).
Ariko kugira ibigwanishwa ntibihagije — turakeneye ubutwari n’inkomezi kugira ngo tubikoreshe.
Umusirikare afise ibigwanishwa ariko adafise umutima w’ubutwari aba yatsinzwe.
N’uko umukirisu azi Ijambo ry’Imana ariko atagira inkomezi zo mu mutima, ntashobora gutsinda mu bigeragezo.

Na Mose, n’ubwo yari yuzuye Mpwemu w’Imana, yaravuze ati:
«Erega sinshobora guterura aba bantu bose jenyene, kuko bamvuna.» (Guharura 11:14)
Imana yaramukomeje kandi ikomeza na Yosuwa yamusubiriye.
«Maze Mose ahamagara Yosuwa, amubaririra imbere y’Abisirayeli bose, at’ Ushikame, ushire amanga, kukw ari wewe uzojana aba bantu mu gihugu Uhoraho yarahiye ba sogokuruza kw azokibaha: ni wewe uzokibashikiriza.» (Gusubira mu vyagezwe 31:7) N’abakomera barakeneye ubutwari buva ku Mana.

Na Dawidi yarigeze kugira ubwoba, ariko Ijambo ry’Imana rivuga riti:
«Ariko Dawidi ariremesha, yisunze Uhoraho Imana yiwe.» (1 Samweli 30:6)

Ubutwari nyakuri ntibuva mu mubiri, buva mu kwizerana n’Imana.
Iyo twacitse intege nk’uko vyagendekeye Eliya mu bugaragwa, Imana ntiduheba, ahubwo iradukomeza (1 Abami 19:7).
Ni co gituma umuhanuzi avuga ati:
«Ni we aha inkomezi abadendebukiwe, kand’ utagira intege amwongeramw’ inkomezi.» (Yesaya 40:29)

Isengesho ryacu ryo buri munsi rikwiye kuba iri:
«Mukama, nkomeza umpe n’ubutwari.»

Si isengesho ry’abanyantege nke, ahubwo ni iry’ukwizera — kuko Imana yonyene ishobora guhindura ubgoba bukaba inkomezi, n’ukwihebura kuba intsinzi.

Umushingantahe w’ubuntu bugarura ubugingo.

“My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One.”(1 John 2:1)

There is in the heart of man an instinctive fear of judgment.
Each time conscience recalls its faults, it trembles before the thought of a God who judges.
But the revelation of the Gospel changes everything:
Jesus Christ did not come to be my Judge, but to be my Advocate.
He does not stand against me, but for me.
He does not accuse me; He defends my cause before the Father.

“For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.”(John 3:17)

While the accuser raises his voice to condemn me, Jesus rises to defend me.
He reminds the Father that my case was already settled on the cross.
There, He took my place, bore my sentence, and suffered my judgment,
so that I might be declared righteous.

“Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus who died —more than that, who was raised to life —is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.”(Romans 8:33–34)

Each time I stumble, He lifts me up.
Each time I feel unworthy, He reminds me of the value of His blood.
He does not push me away—He restores me.
He does not judge me by my failures, but by His grace.
His eyes are not filled with reproach but with restoring love.

Jesus cannot judge me today because He has already justified me.
He will not condemn me on the last day, because He already forgave me at the cross.
The judgment I deserved fell upon Him,
and the righteousness of God was fully accomplished in my favor.

“Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.”(Romans 8:1)

My Advocate has never lost a single case,
for His plea is His own sacrifice.
He does not present arguments—He presents His scars.
And those scars speak louder than every accusation of the enemy, saying:
“This one belongs to Me. I paid for him.”

So I can boldly declare:
If Jesus does not judge me, who can?
If the Son of God justifies me, who can condemn me?
I walk free—not by merit, but by grace.
I am covered—not by my righteousness, but by His.

Today, I rest in the peace of the One who defends my cause before God.
And on the day of judgment, He will stand—not to accuse me—but to present me before the Father,
washed and justified by the blood of the eternal covenant.

PRAYER:
Lord Jesus, thank You for being my faithful Advocate and eternal Defender.
When the voices of condemnation rise against me, remind me that Your blood speaks for me.
Teach me to live each day in the awareness that I am already justified by You.
Let Your intercession be my peace, Your grace my strength,
and Your love my certainty. Amen.

«Mes petits enfants, je vous écris ces choses afin que vous ne péchiez point. Et si quelqu’un a péché, nous avons un avocat auprès du Père, Jésus-Christ le juste.»(1 Jean 2:1)

Il y a dans le cœur de l’homme une crainte instinctive du jugement. Chaque fois que la conscience se souvient de ses fautes, elle tremble à l’idée d’un Dieu qui juge.
Mais la révélation de l’Évangile change tout: Jésus-Christ n’est pas venu pour être mon juge, mais pour être mon avocat. Il ne se tient pas contre moi, mais pour moi. Il ne m’accuse pas, il plaide ma cause devant le Père.

«Dieu, en effet, n’a pas envoyé son Fils dans le monde pour qu’il juge le monde, mais pour que le monde soit sauvé par lui.»(Jean 3:17)

Tandis que l’accusateur élève sa voix pour me condamner, Jésus se lève pour me défendre.
Il rappelle au Père que mon dossier a déjà été réglé à la croix.
Là, il a pris ma place, il a porté ma sentence, il a subi mon jugement afin que je sois déclaré juste.
C’est pourquoi l’Écriture dit:

«Qui accusera les élus de Dieu? C’est Dieu qui justifie. Qui les condamnera? Christ est mort, bien plus, il est ressuscité, il est à la droite de Dieu, et il intercède pour nous.»(Romains 8:33-34)

Chaque fois que je trébuche, il me tend la main.
Chaque fois que je me sens indigne, il me rappelle la valeur de son sang.
Il n’est pas celui qui me repousse, mais celui qui me relève.
Il ne me juge pas selon mes erreurs, mais selon sa grâce.
Son regard n’est pas celui du reproche, mais celui de l’amour qui restaure.

Jésus ne peut pas me juger aujourd’hui, car il m’a déjà justifié hier.
Il ne pourra pas me condamner au dernier jour, car il m’a déjà pardonné à la croix.
Le jugement que je méritais est tombé sur lui, et la justice de Dieu s’est pleinement accomplie en ma faveur.
Ainsi, la condamnation n’a plus de droit sur moi.

«Il n’y a donc maintenant aucune condamnation pour ceux qui sont en Jésus-Christ.»(Romains 8:1)

Mon avocat n’a jamais perdu une seule cause, car sa plaidoirie est son propre sacrifice.
Il ne présente pas des arguments, il présente ses cicatrices.
Et ces cicatrices crient plus fort que toutes les accusations de l’ennemi.
Elles disent: “Celui-ci m’appartient, j’ai payé pour lui.”

Alors je peux dire avec assurance:
Si Jésus ne me juge pas, qui osera me juger?
Si le Fils de Dieu me justifie, qui osera me condamner?
Je marche libre, non par mérite, mais par grâce.
Je suis couvert, non par ma justice, mais par la sienne.

Aujourd’hui, je repose dans la paix de celui qui défend ma cause devant Dieu.
Et quand viendra le jour du jugement, ce ne sera pas pour m’accuser qu’il se lèvera, mais pour me présenter devant le Père comme son racheté, purifié et justifié par le sang de l’Alliance éternelle.

PRIÈRE:
Seigneur Jésus,
merci d’être mon avocat fidèle et mon défenseur éternel.
Quand les voix du doute veulent me condamner, rappelle-moi que ton sang parle pour moi.
Apprends-moi à vivre chaque jour dans la conscience que je suis déjà justifié par toi.
Que ton intercession soit ma paix, ta grâce ma force, et ton amour ma certitude. Amen.

Ntazanancira urubanza ku munsi w’iherezo, kuko yampaye imbabazi kera.
Ibyo nari nkwiye kubwirwaho byamuguyeho, kandi ubutabera bw’Imana bwarandengeye.

“Nuko rero noneho abari muri Kristo Yesu nta teka bazacirwaho.”(Abaroma 8:1)

Umurengezi wanjye ntiyigeze atsindwa na rimwe, kuko ubusabane bwe ari igitambo cye.
Ntazana ibimenyetso, azana ibikomere bye.
Kandi ibyo bikomere bivuga cyane kurusha icyaha, bivuga ngo: “Uyu ni uwanjye, naramwishyuriye.”

Bityo, ndavuga ntanyeganyega:
Niba Yesu atancira urubanza, ni nde wanshinja?
Niba Umwana w’Imana andengeye, ni nde wancira urubanza?
Ngenda mu bwigenge, si ku bw’imirimo, ahubwo ku bw’ubuntu.
Niba ndi mu mahoro, si kubera ubukiranutsi bwanjye, ahubwo ni kubera ubwe.

Ubu nduhukira mu mahoro y’Uwundengera imbere y’Imana.
Kandi ku munsi w’urubanza, ntazahaguruka kundenganya,
ahubwo azamfata nk’umuntu we, wacunguwe n’amaraso y’isezerano ry’iteka ryose.

Iyo amajwi yo kunyitirira icyaha azamuka, nyibutsa ko amaraso yawe avuga ibyanjye.
Nyigisha kubaho buri munsi nzi ko natsindanishirijwe nawe.

Iyo ntsitaye, arampagurutsa.
Iyo numva ntagikwiye, aranyibutsa amaraso y’isezerano.
Ntandekera mu kwiyagiriza, ahubwo arankomeza.
Ntambonamwo urubanza, ahubwo ambonamwo ubuntu n’urukundo.
Amaso yiwe yuzuye imbabazi, atari urwanko.

Nimba Yesu atancira urubanza, ni nde yoruncira?
Nimba Umwana w’Imana amvugira, ni nde yonyagiriza?
Ngenda nidegemvya, atari ku bw’ibikorwa, ahubwo ku bw’ubuntu.
Ndi umwere, atari ku bwa butungane bwanje, ahubwo ari ku bwiwe.

Ubu nduhukira mu mahoro y’Uwunyitsa imbere y’Imana.
Kandi no ku musi w’urubanza, ntazohagarara nk’uwuncira urubanza imbere ya Data, ahubwo azohagarara umvugira kwa Data nk’umuntu yacunguye n’amaraso y’isezerano rihoraho.

IGISABISHO:
Mwami Yesu,
urakoze kuba Umwitsa wanje w’ukuri n’Umurinzi ahoraho.
Iyo amajwi y’icaha ashaka kuncira urubanza, nyibutsa ko amaraso yawe amvugira.
Nyigisha kubaho nzi ko natsindanishirijwe nawe.
Ubwunganizi bwawe bube amahoro yanje, ubuntu bwawe bube inkomezi zanje, urukundo rwawe rube ivyizigiro vyanje. Amen.

Acts 1:18-19
(With the payment he received for his wickedness, Judas bought a field; there he fell headlong, his body burst open and all his intestines spilled out. Everyone in Jerusalem heard about this, so they called that field in their language Akeldama, that is, Field of Blood.) For,” said Peter, “it is written in the Book of Psalms: “‘May his place be deserted; let there be no one to dwell in it,’ and, “‘May another take his place of leadership.’ »(Acts 1:18-20)

There are places that stand as silent witnesses to human tragedy.
The Field of Blood mentioned in the book of Acts is one of them.
It was bought with the wages of betrayal — the thirty pieces of silver Judas Iscariot received for delivering the Lord of life.

This field, called Akeldama, bears a name heavy with shame and sorrow.
It reminds the people of Jerusalem of the terrible price of treachery.
The money of sin never produces joy or peace; it always ends in ruin and death.

Judas tried to undo his act by returning the silver, but guilt was too strong for him.
His field became a symbol of what sin always leaves behind — emptiness, loneliness, and death.
Truly, the Scripture is fulfilled:
“The wages of sin is death.” (Romans 6:23)

Yet behind this tragedy lies a greater truth: God always fulfills His Word.
Even human failure cannot stop His plan.
The Psalms had already foretold Judas’s fall:
“Let his dwelling be desolate… and let another take his place.”
When a man fails, God’s purpose still continues.

The Field of Blood speaks to us today.
It warns us against trading our loyalty to God for temporary gain.
It reminds us that whatever is gained through sin will ultimately destroy us.

But there is another field — the hill of Calvary, where another blood was shed.
The blood of Judas cried out guilt and despair,
but the blood of Jesus cries out mercy and redemption.
The field of Judas became a place of death, but the field of Jesus became the ground of eternal life.

There are therefore two fields:
The field of betrayal, marked by sin and death.
The field of redemption, marked by grace and life.
One ends in despair; the other begins with forgiveness.

On which field are you building your life today?

PRAYER:
Lord Jesus,
Keep me from selling my faith for the world’s illusions.
Purify my heart and make it sincere before You.
Where sin has left its stain, may Your blood speak a better word.
Turn my field of shame into a field of grace, Amen.
