There are so very “many” deceivers in our day. Christ’s apostle Paul told us that they are the very ministers of Satan (2 Corinthians 11:12-15).

The “MANY false prophets” Jesus foretold of this last hour, whom He told us would “deceive MANY” can be very engaging, engraciating, using their personalities to draw in their prey (Matthew 7:15; 24:3-5, 11; Romans 16:18; Colossians 2:8-10; 1 John 4:1). Beware saints.

WE’VE all been deceived. When this realization sets in, when we realize it….. It’s essential to get honest, to humble ourselves in repentance – realizing we were NOT being led by the Holy Spirit when we condoned a false teacher (Romans 8:14; Galatians 1:6-9). Pride damns (Proverbs 13:10).

Beware of making soul ties with any mere human (John 2:25; 2 Corinthians 5:16). We are to love all men and yet Jesus is our “first love” – our identity, our King (Revelation 2:4-5; Galatians 2:20; 6:14; 1 Corinthians 1:29-25).

What Now?

“And they bend their tongues like their bow for lies: but they are not valiant for the truth upon the earth; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they know not me, saith the LORD.” Jeremiah 9:3

The LORD says that all who are not “valiant for the truth” of God “know not me.” Read Jeremiah 9:3 above again.

How do we know who the true disciples of Jesus are in our day?

The heavenbound elect of Christ are those who are “valiant for the truth.” God says that all othes “know not me.” (Jeremiah 9:3)

“Proverbs 12:22 says ‘Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord.’ Detestable. Lying and living in lies is contrary to God. God is truth! John 14:6. He delights in those who value, practice and love His truth!” Karen Cochran

It’s time to run from the wolves who incubated you into a lukewarm hell bound spiritual state. You swore those devils were men of God and preached the Word and yet you never heard them preach in God’s anointing on fearing God, on hell, on repentance, divine judgment, on the crucified life – the cross, on knowing God and bearing good fruit, on the essential of personal holiness, on the holiness of the LORD, on the virgin birth and the divinity of the only begotten Son of God, and what He says concerning being ready for His return, etc. You were satisfied with having your ears tickled.

Instead of diligently, daily seeking the LORD for yourself in His Word, you abrogated that place to a mere man and your must repent now for not seeking the face of the LORD, for knowing Him for yourself – as He commanded you to do.

You must first begin with your own true, sincere repentance before the LORD – because it was 100% your own fault.

“Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.” 2 Timothy 4:2-4

Today is your day to make all things right with the LORD. He loves you and He’s waiting….. “Coming unto me” saith the LORD (Matthew 11:28-30).

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

Genuine DISCIPLES of Jesus are in God’s Word for themselves daily and so they NEVER get upset when some popular “Christian” fraud is exposed – because they never trusted in that wolf in the first place! No, they seek God for themselves in His Word daily – as all believers are instructed to do! (2 Timothy 2:15) It’s only those who have pushed the LORD away and therefore become dependent upon mere sinful men who get all up in arms when the beguiler they thought was a true Bible teacher is exposed.

In correctly assessing our being misled in the past, we must take personal responsibility for what happened and not put undue blame on the enemy’s emissaries whom he used to ensnared our souls. In truth, we were deceived due to our own lack of personally seeking the face of our LORD and not diligently studying His Words (1 Chronicles 16:11; 2 Timothy 2:15).

Walking with the LORD requires obeying Him by engaging in regular fellowship with others who are His children also. Loving Jesus includes loving His beloved people and that involves gathering with them to seek His holy face together (John 13:24-25; 1 John 4:7-8; 5:1). Getting in His Word, fellowshipping, eating together, having communion, and praying together are what the earliest believers did and God was greatly glorified (Acts 2:42-47). His divine favor was upon them.

“And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. 43 And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles. 44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common; 45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need. 46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, 47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.” Acts 2:42-47

Our LORD Jesus is greatly glorified when we gather together, even if just two of His people (Matthew 17:29). The LORD loves when His people get together to praise Him, to worship Him, to study and relish His Word, to pray to the Father, and to eat together in fellowship (Psalms 133:1-3; Acts 2:42-47). Such gathering is especially needeful in this late hour.

“But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end; 15 While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.” Hebrews 3:13-15

If we don’t deliberately experience rich fellowship with Christ and His beloved people on and ongoing and regular basis, we will be hardened in heart and fall away. Beware and “Take heed to yourselves…” (Luke 21:34-36)

Each and every true follower of Jesus Christ, is responsible to obey Him in fellowshipping often with His beloved people and in loving them. Using the excuse that most leaders who pose as Christ’s representatives to justify not gathering with other Christians, is not wise. The person who uses false prophets as an excuse to stay out of fellowship with other Christians, will fall away and be lost.

“And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: 25 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.” Hebrews 10:24-25  

If we’ve been deceived and hurt by a false teacher, we should not allow this to be our own downfall. In fact, if we are honest, we must admit that we ourselves were beguiled only because we did not discern correctly. So, we should take part of the responsibility upon ourselves.

Nowhere did the LORD instruct us to unduly follow a man anyway. We must have our own relationship with Christ and cease depending upon some man who comes on TV or stands up behind a pulpit in a building on Sunday mornings. We must grow us into Christ and depend only upon Him as we worship Him daily in spirit and in truth with those of like faith and like mind.

Any Christian who has average discernment insight, recognizes that there are “many false prophets”who have gone out among us, infiltrating that which claims to be representing Christ (Matthew 7:15; 1 John 4:1). This does not eliminate the need though for the life-giving fellowship Jesus ordains us to experience with Him and with His body. We must never use any excuse to neglect celebrating Jesus Christ together with other fellow believers.

“And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.” Acts 2:42

Getting Better not Bitter

The obvious fact is that most leaders in the modern church world are not being obedient to Jesus Christ by following the biblical model for leadership and fellowship. Yet, the true disciple must experience regular fellowship as prescribed in the New Testament Scriptures, dwelling together with other disciples in the richness of God’s Word (Colossians 3:16).

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” Colossians 3:16

Learning to walk with the LORD daily requires that one cease depending on a Sunday morning program. That’s what some rightfully call “churchianity.” Listen, Jesus didn’t die to make His disciples good little church members, but rather to daily die to self, take up their cross, and follow Him in becoming fishers of men (Matthew 4:19; Luke 9:23-24, etc.).

Those of us who have been misled by a false teacher and false teachings must personally bear the responsibility for being deceived and not turn away from God Himself or be hardened in heart due to being beguiled for a season. We should repent and confess our own sins of not more diligently following Jesus as our supreme LORD and Savior which is what led to our hearts and minds being deceived.

The true wise-virgin disciple of Jesus who will endure to the end, keeping his vessel filled with the oil of God’s presence, must not be discouraged due to the epidemic of wolves in the modern church world, He must remain in vital union and fellowship with Jesus and His true Bride, though they be few (Luke 12:32. The need to fellowship with other true disciples of Jesus is extremely important, especially in this late hour as we look for Christ’s soon return for His Bride. So, the fact that there are wolves who have overtaken most pulpits in the modern church world, does not negate the need for each and every born again believer to experience authentic New Testament fellowship, staying in the Word, fellowshipping with, praising, and praying with other Christians. No pulpit or “church building” is needed and never was.

“And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: 25 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.” Hebrews 10:24-25

Speaking His Truth in Love [podcast]


“But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:” Ephesians 4:15

Growing up in Christ involves and leads to His children “speaking the truth in love.”

Not one or the other but rather BOTH – truth and love, “speaking the truth in love.” (Ephesians 4:15)

A person of truth never speaks with respect to how mere men will respond nor merely for their enrichment. No, he speaks the words, the truth of God, unashamed, boldly. His desire is to please the LORD, not men (Ephesians 4:15; Galatians 1:10).

Ephesians 4:15-32

Never speak “your truth.” Speak God’s truth! Your life is over and swallowed up in Christ! (Colossians 3:3)

Saints, let us please remember that as believers, sometimes it’s best to simply pray, to demonstrate our trust before God Himself privately, and not wrestle with other saints who are struggling as all do in this life (2 Timothy 2:24-26). “Let thy words be few.” (Ecclesiastes 5:2) At times our ministry involves caring enough to simply listen.

Walking in God’s love can never be separated from walking in God’s truth! They are divinely, eternally married! Don’t you dare claim to be walking in God’s love if you are not speaking God’s truth (Ephesians 4:15; Proverbs 27:5-6). God requires that you speak His truth in His love or you are nothing (1 Corinthians 13).

Daily Prayer Guide [podcast]

Daily Prayer Guide


PRAYING EVERY DAY FOR:

THE BODY OF CHRIST

Here’s some of the biblical truth I personally pray daily for those disciples of Jesus on my prayer list:

  • That God would take away the stony places in our hearts and grant us hearts of flesh – pliable, humble, teachable, worshipful, obedient (Ezekiel 36:24-26).
  • That the LORD would unite our hearts to fear His holy name (Psalms 86:11).
  • That He would bless us to stand perfect and complete in all the will of God (Colossians 4:12).
  • That the LORD would fill us with His love and cause that love to be demonstrated through our lives daily in our interactions with others (1 Corinthians 13).
  • That He would baptize and fill us with His Holy Spirit and use us powerfully for His eternal glory (Acts 1:8; 2:4, etc.).
  • That God would quicken and give us His wisdom concerning fruitful stewardship of His resources He’s entrusted us with (Matthew 25:14-30, etc.).
  • That we would be blessed to know Him in that oneness and abiding relationship He spoke of and prayed in John 15 and 17 – bearing fruit to His glory.
  • That the LORD would teach us and bring us to be consummate soul winners as His ambassadors (Proverbs 11:30; 2 Corinthians 5:20).
  • The our LORD will multiply His grace, love, and wisdom in our hearts (2 Peter 3:18; Romans 5:5; James 1:5).
  • That God would increase our faith (Luke 17:5).

OUR LEADERS:

“I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; for kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour.” 1 Timothy 2:1-3

OUR CITY:

“And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captives, and pray unto the Lord for it: for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace.” Jeremiah 29:7

GOD’S KINGDOM TO COME ON EARTH:

(Both today and the Millennial Kingdom when Jesus Christ reigns on earth for 1,000 years)

Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.” Matthew 6:10

GOD TO SEND LABOURERS INTO HIS HARVEST:

“Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; 38 pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.” Matthew 9:37-38

THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM:

“Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.” Psalm 122:6

—— • ——

Also, Jesus gave His disciples a model for daily prayer which is an excellent starting place for each day.

“After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 11 Give us this day our daily bread. 12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.” Matthew 6:9-13

Jesus will Judge Us by Our Works

By Glenn and Dezi Langohr

JESUS — JUDGED BY WORKS

“Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father… Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied…? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.” Matthew 7:21–23

Our works clearly reveal what is in our hearts! Fruit.

“For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.” Matthew 16:27

“…all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, and shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.” John 5:28–29

“He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: *the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.” John 12:48

PAUL — CONTINUE IN GOOD WORKS

“Who will render to every man according to his deeds: To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life.” Romans 2:6–7

 “For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.” Romans 2:13

 “For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:10

“…they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works.” Titus 3:8

“For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.” 2 Corinthians 5:10  

“…for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. And let us not be weary in well doing…” Galatians 6:7–9

JAMES — FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD

“Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.” James 2:17

“Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.” James 2:24 

“For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.” James 2:26 

PETER — BE HOLY, DO GOOD WORKS

“And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man’s work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear.” 1 Peter 1:17

“Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.” 1 Peter 2:12 

“Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall.” 2 Peter 1:10 

 SUMMARY

Jesus said He will judge every man by their works (Matthew 16:27, John 5:29).

Paul taught that eternal life is for those who continue in well doing (Romans 2:7, Titus 3:8).

James declared faith without works is dead (James 2:17, 24).

Peter warned God will judge every man’s work (1 Peter 1:17) and exhorted us to abound in good works.

God’s people are called to endure to the end with living faith proven by works of obedience, love, and holiness.
