IN THE QUEST FOR PEACE IN A GOD REJECTED WORLD (2Sam.7:1)
OUR EXPECTATIONS FROM THE PULPITS OF GOD'S GENUINE SHEPHERDS! (PART TWO)
A truly genuine God called shepherd should be crying in his heart of hearts,over the decay in the system today... church,politics, religion, various forms of both cruel and humiliating insecurity, and every other unprintable evils pervading the world. Though we can't stop God's Word from coming to pass,we can yet prepare and protect it through The Same God's Word.
BUT SADLY AND PAINFULLY , THE OPPOSITE IS THE CASE,AS THE CRAZE FOR TITLES,FAME AND WEALTH HAS MADE THEM TO FORGET THE WORDS OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR CHRIST JESUS;
22. Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, "Lord, how is it that you will manifest yourself to us, and not to the world?" 23. Jesus answered him, "If a man loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. (Joh 14: 22-23)
Now, because those who ought to know are now engrossed in the race for the mundane things of the world,many are confused on what to believe,while others are following in the footsteps of their * idol* It's now what our Pastor or bishop said,but NEVER God said. From there, satan has an opening and space to feed the confused hearts with the deceptive already long prophesied knowledge increment,such as Theology(man using his sin infested wisdom to seek for a God Whom has already revealed what He wants us to know about Him at our current human level in His Word);
The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law. (Deu 29: 29)
Then followed the wonders of science and technology/engineering,etc. NOW, MY QUESTION TO OUR *HUNGRY FOR FAME , INFLUENCE,MORE KNOWLEDGE, CUTTING EDGE TECHNOLOGY AND LARGE CONGREGATIONS SEEKING PASTORS* is, how are they preparing God's Flock with the devil on the rampage.Peter warns us;
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: (1Pe 5: 8)
Despite the obvious signs, we are allowing the devil excessive room to send us on a wild goose chase;
The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law. (Deu 29: 29)
Seeking to distort and scatter GOD'S AGENDA, which * unfortunately and frustratingly to him, is HUGELY,OURIGHTHLY AND ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE.
And we forgot that God didn't call,save and reveal His Plans for us to directly or indirectly team up with satan.
This is the time to do everything possible at anytime, anything, anywhere for Christ Jesus because He is over worthy of our absolute Loyalty to Him,if we truly realise and appreciate the awesomeness of the sacrifice He made for us.
CHRIST JESUS HIMSELF TOLD US HIMSELF THE GREATEST DANGER OF THE END TIMES IS THAT OF PREVAILING SPIRITUAL DECEPTION.
Deception is the act of causing someone to accept as true or valid what is false or invalid.
We live in an information age. We all know Dr Google has changed our lives in many good ways, but it has also served up false news, and with it deception. It's an invaluable tool in the hands of the devil,but if we are really ready to sacrifice, IT CAN EVEN AND SHOULD BE A MORE VALUABLE TOOL IN OUR HANDS TO SILENCE THE DEVIL;
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. (Rom 8: 28)
And now do not be distressed, or angry with yourselves, because you sold me here; for GOD SENT ME BEFORE YOU TO PRESERVE LIFE. (Gen 45: 5)
Christ Jesus warns of false teachers and prophets leading even believers astray. False doctrine is dangerous and cannot be taken lightly. God’s Word tells us that doctrine affects our eternal salvation and those who hear us.
1 Timothy 4:16
Take heed to yourself and to the doctrine. Continue in them, for in doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you.
But the MAJOR PAIN HERE, is that those who are supposed to feed the flock with the right food,are even the ones that are feeding them the wrong food. But why? That's a reasonable question, and here is the answer.
The devil in his craftiness has pushed into the church of God,a great population of THE MIXED MULTITUDE, the very replica of the ones that followed the Israelites out of Egypt that consistently were a thorn in Moses' flesh. They led Aaron into making a golden calf. Remember,they were rich before and in the absence of what they were used to, always raise the cry for a return to Egypt.
Such a MIXED MULTITUDE occupies a greater majority of our gatherings today, and guess what? They're usually the richest in the congregation,sponsoring heavy projects,highest donors in every need, occupies the highest positions.
PITIABLY, BUT REDEEMABLE, WE NOW HAVE AT OUR PULPITS THOSE WHO PAMPERED TO THE WHIMS AND CAPRICES OF THIS MIXED MULTITUDE.
HE WHO PAYS THE PIPER DICTATES THE TUNE.
This is the reason why the UNDILUTED WORD OF GOD is disappearing gradually from our pulpits...Most of them whom we looked up to for holiness and salvation messages have tasted of the *FORBIDDEN FRUIT* and thus deviated. They crave personal jets,mansions,wonders on wheels, competition in whose auditoriums(Not God's again) is bigger and more beautiful. They lust for royal yatches where they can go on vacation with. And without this MIXED MULTITUDE,who MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE INITIATED INTO SORCERY AND OCCULTISM have long forgotten their God given mandate and wallowing in the temporal euphoria of what they once preached against by God's unction.
BUT THE TIME TO CHANGE THE NARRATIVE IS NOW,NOT TOMORROW...HOW WILL CHRIST JESUS RATE US WHEN WE FAIL IN THE RESPONSIBILITY HE HANDED OVER TO US!
It will take courage to challenge the current Church culture. End-time leaders must maintain an intimate personal relationship with the Father through personal devotion and prayer, focusing on the written WORD and GUARDING their HEARTS AGAINST ALL EVIL INFLUENCE. It's something we must do if we were genuinely called and missed. WE YET HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO AMEND OUR WAYS.
We cannot lead others to a place we have not been. So, the first order of business is to take an honest self-assessment and ask some pointed questions.
Do I function in the power and demonstration of the Holy Spirit?
Does my team?
If not, what are we doing to rectify this problem?
Are we crying out to God in prayer for the correction and instruction needed to facilitate change?
Are we earnestly contending for the faith that was once delivered to the Saints? (Jude 3)
If so, are we seeing measurable progress in this area?
THE UNMISTAKABLE POWER and DEMONSTRATION of the HOLY SPIRIT MUST AGAIN BECOME VITALLY IMPORTANT TO THE CHURCH.
Not the easily identifiable sorcery, occultic and magic prevalent in many shrines today(for I call them churches), where a supposed prophet will raise a leg and everyone starts falling on one another or turn around and every one falls on the ground.
THE HOLY SPIRIT DOESN'T SHOW OFF, NEITHER DOES HE NEED TO ENTERTAIN BEFORE DOING THAT WHICH ONLY HE ALONE CAN DO.
We will be back, but until then, join in the massive prayer for God to personally His Own who are being led astray because of lust, in Christ Jesus' Name Amen !
