(Mat 17:20 KJV) And Jesus said unto them, Because of your thunbelief:
for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard
seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place;
and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
Why aren't miracles happening? Why is there an attitude of acceptance
for this lack? Why are our standards of who we place over us as
pastors, preachers and teachers so lax? When God accepted priests
they were Holy or dead and we accept anyone that says he was called
to preach so we get what we pay for and whether you pay this person
or persons or not, you still pay spiritually for what you get.
When Jesus was teaching his disciples he told them if they had
faith as a mustard seed, (Luke 17:6 KJV), and where two or three
or gathered together in my name (Mat 18:20 KJV), or let the elders
of the church come together and pray for this one and he would be
healed (James 5:14). The weight for holiness was put on the disciples
not the people. The priest went into the Holy of Holies for the
people and then came out unto the people but first he spent time
with God. We don't require our people to spend time with GOD. We
accept that they are called to preach because they say they are
and we then get man's word and man's ideas and God gets left out
again and we stay spiritually bankrupt because we have nothing.
When Jesus did the parable or example of Lazarus and the rich man
(Luke 16:20-26) this was a teaching parable not an actual reality.
We have people who are rich in knowledge of God and they keep it
to themselves and let the people that are begging for a few crumbs
continue to starve. We have an endless supply of stale bread, just
turn on the radio and you can eat your fill but it's not life and
you will die in your sins because it has no life to sustain you.
How do you fix this lack in your life? By bombarding heaven for
knowledge until you get help and then never settling for leftovers.
(Mat. 7:7 & Luke 11:9)God is still talking and He's never given
up on you, you gave up on yourselves. Unless you care enough to
cry for help He will leave you as you are, locked in your misery
and whining because of your circumstances.
I am not kicking you while you are down and don't worry about not
having faith because the disciples are the ones commanded to have
faith, not you. YOUR only requirement is to want out of your situation
and to allow God to enter your life and change things around.
I have fussed about the religious system and how it has robbed
the people. And God has let me know that if I can't arm you with
the knowledge of how to change your life and I sit here with my
knowledge; then I am the rich man who refuses to share with you.
As the rich man, I will sit in hell and so will you. I help feed
hundreds of families a month and yet I don't share the knowledge
that would help them more than food and if I offend you than get
over it because I must teach and you decide what you must do.
I have attended services where we were told that if you said words
in a certain way that God would obey. Oh, it was not said in exactly
that way, but that's what it meant and I thought maybe, that'd work.
Guess what, it didn't; so, back to square one, at a loss.
I can tell you from experience that you will change your life for
Him first and then He will change your life further and give you
more than you ever gave Him. So you control your life on this earth
and everything that has happened to you thus far has been exactly
what you asked for.
Many times the things we go through are our teachers (Isa. 30:20)
and when we learn what we need too, then we go to a higher level
and get to learn a few more things. If we love God (Mat. 22:37-40)
with our whole beings then He begins to perfect us by having us
learn to put other people first. You see, you must become a servant
first in the kingdom of God before you can become a son and many
times the first thing that needs to go is your pride so therefore
hard times are on the way. When you can look at every circumstance
in your life and say truthfully, "Thank You for teaching me
this," then you can leave that experience behind and go on.
As you travel this road you will find that you don't have a lot
of people keeping you company because it's a lot easier to sit in
the dust on the side of the road then to keep walking. Remember
that the serpent was to crawl in the dust for all eternity (Gen.
3:14) so Satan will keep you company and you are His meat for as
long as you sit there. If that's where you prefer to be, don't let
me rain on your seat and change forever your eternity, if you're
truly happy, that is.
So if you're a preacher and you want to help your people then your
first priority is to get to know your Master personally before spreading
the table for the marriage supper of the Lamb. (Rev. 19:9) You will
have your part in the lake of fire (Rev. 19:20, Rev.20:10, 15, Rev.
21:8) with all the other false prophets But all is not lost because
this fire is a purifying fire and you will either allow yourself
to become holy or die as the priests did in the Holy of Holies.
We have many people who are going through this purifying fire now
and I thank God for you and I thank God for every trial that you
have gone through because we need you to be holy for so many babies
that are coming in and for children that the other ministries have
thrown away as unworthy.
WE ARE going to experience some very bad times because of the purification
that is coming upon the earth and we as a people, unless we die
first, will see this in the next two years. God said He would take
the evil from the earth and therefore if you're holy you are in
fine shape, but you owe it to your brother to pray for him so it
becomes easier to walk for you are your brother's keeper and if
you knowingly don't pray and he dies in his sin then his blood is
required at your hands. (Ezek. 3:20) Oooooh-h-h, the blood that
stains every one of us.
Ask God what He sent you here to do and then stand still and receive
your answers. If you know what your ministry is then you can quit
wasting time on meaningless pursuits. Bless you for allowing me
to serve you in the capacity that I'm called to do.
