How can I be bully-proof?

‘The Dark’ is using Captain Barrett to destroy relationships among the Starship Alpha crew. However, Captain Ryan decided to show kindness to Captain Barrett and concentrate on fighting the real enemy, The Dark.

Captain Ryan realizes that it is better to care about what God thinks of us rather than what people think of us and stops the deactivation process of Ziggy. Meanwhile, Ziggy discovers that the energy shield can protect them from attack. Captain Ryan helps Captain Barrett see that we must stand up against those that want to bully us.

Paul encourages the Christians in Corinth – although he’s been beaten he’s not crushed; he’s had pain, but he’s not destroyed. He reminds them that the situations they are in don’t have to change who they are on the inside.

When we choose to follow Jesus, when we become Forever Friends with God, we become part of God’s family and God is always there for us. When we really believe what God thinks of us it is like an energy shield around us, helping us to become Bully-proof!

Paul talked about the time Ananias came to help him. Although he was afraid at first, Ananias realized that God was with him and he didn’t have to be afraid. Just like Ananias who brought healing to Saul’s heart, all of us who follow Jesus carry the power of His love.

Oh dear! What will happen to Ziggy, the class 9 android. Will she be deactivated? She has disobeyed Captain Ryan’s orders because she believed he was wrong to not get help for Major Tom. Captain Ryan is allowing himself to be bullied into fighting The Dark rather than caring for his crew – he is becoming a bully himself.

We then turned to the Bible and heard about the time Paul started to become a bully. He stood by and watched as people threw stones and killed Stephen because Stephen was telling them about Jesus. From then on Paul started having Christians thrown into jail.

Today we started our new series, Starship Alpha. In today’s episode Captain Riley came face to face with a guy who used to bully him as a kid. We also heard about Paul, who used to bully Christians. (You can read about him in the book of ACTS)

During this series, we’ll explore what God has to say about how to deal with bullying. This week we focused on making sure none of us are the bully. How can we know if WE are the ones being the bully? We can pray, asking God to show us any bullying behaviours or attitudes we might have. Remember, bullying can be hurting another person’s feelings not just their body.

The Bible says that to follow Jesus means to follow His example. This requires us to love others, and not be mean to them.

 

Our Bible memory verse for this week is,

Do to others whatever you would like them to do to you…
