Acts 5:7-9
7 About three hours later his wife came in, not knowing what had happened.
8 Peter asked her, "Tell me, is this the price you and Ananias got for the land?" "Yes," she said, "that is the price."
9 Peter said to her, "How could you agree to test the Spirit of the Lord? Look! The feet of the men who buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also."

Sapphira, wife of Ananias, could have stopped Ananias from this but looks like she also was blinded. She too lied. How quickly we can get influenced when we are emotionally attached to someone?

If God has brought something to our knowledge, it is better we speak up. We need to focus on what is pleasing to God rather than getting entangled with emotions. Then our emotions will lead us to lie and test the Holy Spirit.

Application

Is anything God has shown you about others in the fellowship or in your family? Please pray about it and with the help of the Holy Spirit, talk to them and help them to please God.
