How to Use Your Judas

Rhoda

happened, and I then proceeded to tell him to be careful who he talks to because someone is going to betray you. What I shared with him actually came to pass. He had his very own Judas, a friend that he broke bread with a friend that he laughed and cried with, betrayed him. It was needed. Everyone needs a Judas in their life. Jesus knew that Judas was going to betray Him. Jesus told the disciples one of you are going to betray me and they all wondered who the culprit was going to be. In Matthew 26:14, “Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests, and said unto them, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver. And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him.”

Everyone goes through life unknown to who is for them or against them. Some people have ulterior motives. You can tell who is for you and who is against you by watching the tide. When things are great everyone is around cheering for you and eating from you. But when life becomes difficult or when you are at your lowest points then you see who actually was there for you, who was in your corner and who truly had your back.

“And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me. And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Lord, is it I? And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me. The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born. Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto him, Thou hast said.” Matthew 26:21-25 KJV

I remember having a dream that I shared with my husband. I told him to be mindful of what you say around certain people. In my dream I was having a conversation with my husband. He was sharing some personal things with me. After our conversation was over, I walked into another room and in that room, I saw two other people having the same conversation that we had word for word, and I was truly bothered. He would’ve never had this conversation with these individuals if he knew they were going to betray him. I woke from my dream, and I shared with him what

The betrayal was needed for the next step of God’s plan. God has a plan for all of us and sometimes we need a Judas to get us there which is all part of the plan. That individual that betrayed my husband was a setup for a better job. Every Judas in your life was there to add to your life, so embrace your Judas especially when God shows you who they are. Embrace them because they are the Pastor Rhoda Turner steps that are needed for you to get Christian Faith Fellowship Church to your next elevation. It is all a Chandler, AZ part of God’s plan.
