BEWARE OF HELPING THESE TYPES OF PEOPLE

Most Christians are taught that we need to help other people. While that is true, sometimes helping others will cause you to feel drained, exhausted, unappreciated, and even taken advantage of. The Bible teaches us the importance of discernment when offering assistance. Proverbs 19:19 says

“A man of great wrath will suffer punishment; For if you rescue him, you will have to do it again.”
‭‭
This reminds us that sometimes, our help can unintentionally enable harmful behaviors or keep people stuck in a cycle of dependency. By setting healthy boundaries and understanding when your help is being exploited, you can protect your peace and focus on helping those who are truly ready for change. The 7 types of people that we should not help are:

1. The Perpetual Victim (they crave attention and always blame others and their stories are filled with exaggerated problems, they continue to wallow in their problems and expect others to fix their issues for them)
2. The Know It All (they think they have all the answers and dismiss others, they dominate conversations, ignore the opinions of others and believe their way is the only way)
3. The Chronic Complainer (they focus on the negative aspects of life talking about the problems and not the solutions, nothing seems good enough)
4. The Manipulator (they are skilled at using guilt and exaggerating circumstances and situations and making false promises to get what they want, they control your emotions to make you feel obligated to assist them)
5. The Enabler (rescuing someone from the consequences of their actions enables them to stay in cycle of dependence and harm)
6. The Narcissist (narcissistic people are very selfish and prideful people who want to use you for their own personal gain)
7. The Opportunist (they exploit circumstances to gain immediate advantage rather than being guided by consistent principles or plans)

So listen to the Holy Spirit and do not look on the outside nor trust what a person is saying. Obey the Lord.
