Father, I pray in
the mighty name of Jesus, that the lives of those reading this today will line
up with your will and your word; I ask that you increase a level of conviction
that will not be shrugged off or disregarded. It is my prayer today that your people
be enlightened and transformed in mind and deed. Thank you, Holy Spirit for
giving me a word to share with your people that will further commit them into
righteousness. Amen
We are to pattern
our lives after Christ, our most Holy and perfect example.
Like Christ we are
to be Faithful.
We serve and
all-knowing God, He knows our every thought; He knows what motivates our
actions and what does not; He knows the intent of the heart and every hair on
our head is numbered. There is nothing that God does not know about you. Like
our natural parents: he knows when we are lying and he knows when we say, we
can't or couldn't do something that we really could but did not; simply
because, we did not want to and He knows when we are making excuses.
A lot of our
Brothers and Sisters are missing the mark in this area. This is an open door,
the enemy has been allowed to walk right on in because, he has deceived you
into thinking there is nothing wrong
with missing church here and there; missing bible study; using your tithes to
buy something new The enemy has deceives you into thinking this is okay,
everyone does it and as a result you have become un-repentant.
You are the foolish
one...
Disobedience and
Lying. some Christians have become so
comfortable with it that it has now become a weekly and monthly practice. Your
intent was to miss one service? That is all enemy needed, now you miss church a
couple times a month, now you miss once a week and do not bother to even call
anymore. The road to Heaven was paved with good intentions everyone has them
but, hear me when I say, everyone won't make it in. It is a downhill slope and
pretty soon the enemy will have it that you slip right on out.
THIS is the part
where some will begin to say, "I am judging them"
What happened to
Pressing towards the mark? The old school saints use to teach us to Press: that
is to move or cause to move into a position of contact with something by
exerting continuous physical force. In others words make an effort to move
forward to reach your destination or intended goal without slacking . Phil
3:12-14. I use to shake my head when patients would call the physician's office
to cancel an appointment because they were sick. Uh, Hello?? This is a doctor's
office a place where you come to get treatment that let me know they didn't
want help - It is the same thing in church everything you need is in the house
of God, your healing- your deliverance- your victory- the word- and you can't
press your way because of a headache? You cannot press your way because you are
tired? You cannot press due to some friend/family obligation? You cannot press
because you bumped your arm at work?
What You can't do is
let your emotions dictate your destiny!
What you can't do is
Lie to the Holy Ghost!
"You don't
know, what I go through."
My answer: You will
never Get Through, if you don't obey and believe God.
"You don't understand."
My answer: I do not
need to understand, YOU need to know what the word says, you do not want me to
understand; You want me to sympathize with you.
"You do not
know, How I feel."
My answer:
"Feelings do not move God, Faith moves God."
Hebrews 10:25
(KJV) Not forsaking the assembling of
ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so
much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
Read Hebrews
10:23-27,39
You can't ignore God
will. What are you saying, that God can't heal a mere headache? Sometimes, we
feed into the flesh without even realizing it. We also, can't avoid the process
that God is trying to take us through to make us better. God also, knows when
we are impatient and discouraged. Do not
let the enemy cause you to skip church because, you feel like God is taking too
long. Do not Allow the enemy to make you jump the gun or take matters into your
own hands because you think he is taking too long. You cannot hurry God, You
cannot manipulate God to move before his appointed time. Wait.
See Sometimes, We know exactly what we are
doing and that's between you and our all-knowing God; the outcome doesn't
change just because, man doesn't see what you are doing; but a man or woman of
God He has gifted that can see nothing will be hidden. God may use a man or
Woman of God to warn and speak life into you. If you refuse to hear that is on
you. The Chastisement God exercises in your life is corrective and
preventative. "Proverbs 13:1 A wise son heeds his father's correction, but
a scoffer does not listen to rebuke."
The result of
disobedience and forsaking fellowship:
- Chastisement
- Hinder your blessings
- Leave yourself open to the enemy
- Backsliding/ Apostasy
- Walking away from the covering of your church (Sin breaks fellowship)
- Sickness and Disease
We want God to
change, manipulate, mold, shift and turn things in our Favor but we won't turn
from the things that please our flesh, those things we know Do not please God.
If when our blessing is delayed we blame the Man or Woman of god that spoke a
word to you; We blame God and everyone but our own short-comings and Disobedience.
