Is God lying? Did He make a mistake?

As Anointed children of God, there is the oil of anointing upon each one of us. Oil always attracts dust, and dust sticks where ever there is oil. What is this dust?

Jesus gave His disciples authority to drive out evil spirits and to heal every disease and sickness (Mat 10:1) and sent them to neighbouring cities.

In Mat 10:13-14 He tells them, "If the home is deserving, let your peace rest on it; if it is not, let your peace return to you. 14If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that home or town. ref Matthew 10:13-15

Then the Disciples and now we are bearers of the anointing power of God and as we leave an unwelcome home or town with our message of peace, the dust (depression, rejections, bitterness etc) will attach itself to you. Often we are unaware because the anointing protects us and we move on to other homes etc. However, we soon recognise that our former enthusiam is no longer within us. There is a downward drag! This is why Jesus forewarned us to purposely dust off, shake off, the dust that attaches itself to us then and there. (we can do this either by a prophectic act like dusting our shoes or by speaking the dust to shake off us. Be careful not to wound anyone in your act, and do the same discretely)

Now listen, Genesis 3.14 So the LORD God said to the serpent, "..........Cursed are you ..........and you will eat dust all the days of your life. " Let me assure you, scientifically serpents do not eat dust! No, it doesn't! So is God lying? Did God make a mistake?

The evil one is often represented as a serpent in the Bible. After Jesus' vistory on the cross, satan's position has been under the foot of every believer. He is alive and still upto his old tricks but his position is under our feet. Jesus has commanded us to shake off our dust when we come out of an unwelcoming home. This dust of anger, depression, bitterness, shame etc is food for this ancient serpent of Genesis fame.
