The Fear of the LORD is to Hate Evil: Pride, and Arrogancy #shorts [video]

Have You Ever Been Duped?

False prophets seek out and prey on gullible, ungrounded dupes – who are enamored by their title or supposed prophecies, words. Beware! The authentic disciple is enamored with the Son of God and grounded in God’s Word – “the more sure word of prophecy” – and therefore not impressed with false prophets with “words.” (2 Peter 1:20-21)

In this late hour, the importance of discerning correctly and keenly cannot be over emphasized. Discerning has never been more essential for the disciple of Christ as is it in this late hour where “evil men and seducers” are waxing “worse and worse.” (2 Timothy 3:13) We must “rightly” divide the “word of truth” and that can only be done by studying to show ourselves “approved unto God” as workmen who “needeth not to be ashamed” in the end (2 Timothy 2:15). Like the God-given “noble” disciples at Berea, we must test all things against Holy Scripture (Acts 17:11).

HAVE you noticed how people will state their conclusion with little or no Scripture and then when you bring correction by stating the biblical truth using numerous Scriptures, because Scripture disagrees with their error, they will say “Well, you’re not rightly dividing the word of truth”?

The primary way to discern is testing everything and everyone against God’s written Word (Acts 17:10-11).

Good “FRUITS” can only come from a born again abiding relationship with Christ in the truth and that’s why Jesus never told us to know (Gr. discern) people by their gifts. Wake up.

“Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know (Gr. discern) them. 21 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 which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.” Matthew 7:20-23

Jesus did not say we’d know (discern) people but their gifts but rather “by their fruits.” (Matthew 7:16, 20) The FRUIT of the Spirit is more important than the GIFTS of the Spirit because it proves relationship (Galatians 5:22-23; 1 Corinthians 12:7-10). Good fruit can only be produced through relationship. The gifts of the Spirit ARE important and yet, some who presently operating in them will be hearing “depart from me” from Jesus (Matthew 7:15-23). This proves that someone can move in the gifts of the Spirit without walking in an intimate relationship with Jesus.

The key to seeing or discerning is to be full of Christ’s light. Those who are unable to discern these obvious false prophets for who they are, have no one to blame but themselves. They are full of darkness, which makes them blind, and therefore unable to discern the holy from the profane (Ezekiel 44:23). There is a “difference between the holy and the profane” and we must “discern” such.

“And they shall teach my people the difference between the holy and profane (unholy, common), and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean.” Ezekiel 44:23

Are you simply going to read that verse above and say in your heart “Oh, nice verse” and then move forward without it? Does it not occur to you to capture that divine treasure for your own life and use it to help others? Write it on an index card with reference from the King James Bible and capture it.

Discernment Comes from God

THERE ARE SOME WHO PRIDE THEMSELVES ON THEIR SUPPOSED ABILITY TO DISCERN. YET, “GOD RESISTETH THE PROUD BUT GIVETH GRACE TO THE HUMBLE.” (JAMES 4:6) WE ARE ONLY SECURE IN OUR DISCERNING TO THE DEGREE THAT WE ARE TRULY ABIDING IN CHRIST – IN THE HOLY FEAR OF GOD AND BY DAILY DENIAL OF SELF AND GIVING OURSELVES WITHOUT RESERVE TO OUR LORD WHO BLED TO SAVE US (PSALMS 86:11; LUKE 9:23-24, ETC.). I HAVE MET SOME WHO CLAIM TO HEAR WORDS FROM GOD OR SEE VISIONS OR BE ABLE TO DISCERN. THESE SAME PEOPLE ARE NOT RICH IN THE WRITTEN WORD AND ARE THEREFORE DECEIVED. ANY PERSON WHO MAKES THE CLAIM OF BEING USED OF GOD WHILE NOT RICH IN HIS WORD IS OPERATING UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF A SPIRIT OF DIVINATION AND IS TO BE REBUKED AND/OR AVOIDED IF THEY DON’T REPENT AND BECOME “SOUND IN THE FAITH,” ROOTED AND GROUNDED IN THE WORD (TITUS 1:13; 2:2). “RIGHTLY DIVIDING” AND ACCURATE DISCERNMENT CAN ONLY COME FROM THE ONLY ONE WHO IS PERFECT AND THAT’S NOT US – IT’S THE LORD (2 TIMOTHY 2:15). IF WE ARE WALKING IN GENUINE, GODLY DISCERNMENT, IT’S DUE TO NO GOOD OF OUR OWN BUT IS RATHER THE GOOD AND PERFECT GIFT OF OUR HEAVENLY FATHER (JAMES 1:17).

When we turn our hearts to the LORD, the light of Christ shines in our hearts and the veil of darkness is dispelled. Watch this closely:

“But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ. 15 But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart. 16 Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away.” 2 Corinthians 3:14-16

That “vail,” or that which blocks one from seeing/discerning correctly, “is done away in Christ.” Yet, after Jesus saves us, we are commanded to love and to worship Him alone with all of our heart, soul, mind, and strength (Matthew 22:37-39). We are commanded to possess a single or clear, unbroken affection and focus upon our Savior. That’s what Jesus said. (Notice that I inserted the Greek definitions in parentheses):

“The light (Gr. Illumination) of the body is the eye (sight): if therefore thine eye be single (purely focused on Christ), thy whole body shall be full of light (bright, well illuminated). 23 But if thine eye be evil (set on anything except Christ), thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!” Matthew 6:22-23

Where is your focus today friend? It’s a moment by moment battle isn’t it? Are you fighting the good fight of faith, keeping your heart’s affections upon our soon returning LORD? Jesus says “Come … and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28-30) Yet, we are instructed to “labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.” (Hebrews 4:11) Laboring to enter into rest seems paradoxical doesn’t it? Well, meditate upon this truth and may Christ give thee light! He sure will. We have personal responsibility beloved – to watch, to wait upon, to seek, and to pray without ceasing in light of our LORD’s soon return.

Are you ready to turn it all around? Don’t be shamed; just hasten to His beautiful feet and throne of grace precious saint! Here you go:

“If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. 3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.” Colossians 3:1-3

Reading, meditating, and studying the Word daily is essential to growth and to remaining in the light of Christ. No man can discern outside of His senses being exercised daily in and by God’s Word.

“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” Psalms 119:105

His Word is His light and that light is to be shining into our hearts daily and dispelling all darkness that would cloud and skew our ability to discern.

“The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.” Psalms 119:130

Christian Maturity Defined

“Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing. ¹²For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. ¹³For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. ¹⁴But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.” Hebrews 5:11-14

Discernment is a gift from God that comes to those who walk with Him closely. That is, His view and perspective abides in those who love, adore, and seek Him, pouring prayerfully over His words as they perpetually hunger and thirst for more of Him. They “search the scriptures” because they contain the very “thoughts” and “truth” of their glorious LORD (Psalms 33:11; John 5:39; 17:17).

Example Discernment Component

See if this becomes self-apparent.

THINK ABOUT THIS: THE FACT THAT PAULA WHITE, T.D. JAKES, KENNETH COPELAND, JOEL OSTEEN, CREFLO DOLLAR, JOYCE MEYER, RICK WARREN, AND A HOST OF OTHER MODERN BEGUILERS HAVE MODELING PICTURES GALORE OF THEMSELVES CLEARLY REVEALS THAT THEY ARE SEEKING THEIR OWN GLORY (JOHN 7:18). THEY HAVE PROJECTED, PROMOTED, AND STAGED THEMSELVES AS CHRIST’S/CHRISTIAN LEADERS WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY AND SEVERELY VIOLATING CHRIST’S LIFE EXAMPLE AND TEACHINGS CONCERNING THE IMPERATIVE OF HUMILITY (MATTHEW 5:3; 18:3-4; 20:20-28; 23:8-12, ETC.). THESE WOLVES HAVE HIRED MAJOR MARKETING FIRMS TO PROMOTE THEMSELVES. IT’S ALL ABOUT THEM. THIS THEY HAVE DONE IN DIAMETRICAL OPPOSITION TO THE LIFE, CHARACTER, AND TEACHINGS OF THE ONE THEY CLAIM TO BE REPRESENTING. IT’S CLEAR THAT THEY ARE NOT REPRESENTING THE SON OF GOD AT ALL BUT ARE RATHER MISREPRESENTING HIM. WE KNOW BY THIS THAT THEY ARE SIMPLY USING JESUS – USING HIS NAME IN VAIN – TO PROMOTE THEMSELVES. THEY ARE MAKING “MERCHANDISE” OF THE GULLIBLE BY MAKING AN INDUSTRY OF THEMSELVES (IDOLATRY) AS THEY “ALLURE THROUGH THE LUSTS OF THE FLESH” IN THEIR GREED-DRIVEN TEACHINGS (2 PETER 2:1-3, 18). WERE WE NOT WARNED REPEATEDLY TO “LET NO MANY DECEIVE YOU BY ANY MEANS” AND “BEWARE OF FALSE PROPHETS WHICH COME TO YOU IN SHEEP’S CLOTHING”? (MATTHEW 7:15; 2 THESSALONIANS 2:3)

Feedback:

“Do you think the only pictures of preachers should be with their families, at their church or events? Or unprofessional photos of themselves?” David D.

Reply:

Hi David. Good question brother. Pictures of us/mere men should always be humble or lacking self-promotion. That would be following what Jesus taught us about humility and preferring OTHERS above ourselves. In other words, we would not be elevating ourselves in any way (Phil. 2:3-5).

“This is a great post. One must learn to discern or surround oneself with those who can. As you said, there is no greater time to learn this, especially when we recognize that Satan has become more active than ever. He is a LIAR AND GOD SAYS SATAN IS THE FATHER OF ALL LIES. We must be able to discern when he is dealing with us through trickery, lies and the twisting GOD’S WORD. He knows he has very little time to win souls unto himself. Stay alert, be ready and study GOD’S word. Pray, asking GOD to teach or enlighten you with this ability. Also, keep your eyes on JESUS and he will do the discerning for you. Praise his holy name. AMEN.” Gary R.

Ever hear this one when a false prophet is being exposed?: “But God knows their heart.”

LAME. Jesus commands us to know/discern them by their fruits (Matthew 7:15-20). Read God’s Word. King James Bible.

When Paul preached, did the Bereans say “well God knows his heart”? NO! They went to the written Word to see if he was true or false.

“And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. 11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.” Acts 17:10-11

“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

Apostasy

Jezebel The Depths of Satan [video]

The severe warning Jesus gives in Revelation 2:20-24 must be wholeheartedly embraced and executed. His main rebuke was to the men who allowed a woman to function as an elder which is forbidden by the LORD (1 Timothy 2:11-12).

WHO’s in Control?

“But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.” Luke 19:27

Jezebels are usually female who refuse to truly repent, lay down their lives in this world, and live the crucified life (Luke 9:23-25). They are therefore the very enemies of Christ and will soon be slain down into eternal damnation irrevocably (Luke 19:27). Some of them are demon possessed witches who call themselves (self-appointed) prophetesses. Witchcraft is control and the reason some are possessed with this witchcraft is that they’ve not given control of their life to the One who gave that life. Repentance needed (Luke 13:3; 19:27). Jesus addresses it in Revelation 2:20-24.

“The problem with women is they do not want to submit. I have seen this over and over. That very word angers them greatly. They cannot submit because they have not fully submitted to God. Once you give complete control of your life to God, your heart changes and you no longer need to be in control. It is then easy to follow God’s line of authority. It’s your heart’s desire to please the Lord and your husband. Because you love God with your whole heart, soul and mind. Matt. 22:37-38.” Karen Cochran

According to Jesus, it was the men who allowed the jezebel to function in the role of an elder which God forbids and this was what He calls “the depths of SATAN.” (Revelation 2:20-24)

“Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.” 1 Timothy 2:11-12

Jezebellian heresies are epidemic as we see by the rebellious women who spread and defend them today, in this late hour.

“Women’s lib, feminism really messed it up for a lot of people and unfortunately its mindset has infiltrated the church!” Catherine Johnston

Their own words are in full on defiance of the Word of God. All of these very people vainly believe they are Christ’s but sadly are not (John 8:47).

As was the case in the Garden, Satan specifically targets the girls, the women – to derail them from God’s ordained purpose for the women (Genesis 2:18; 3:1-17; 1 Timothy 2:9-14; Titus 2:1-5; 1 Peter 3:1-7, etc.). Beware!

ANY person who puts their own supposed calling before the truth of God and body of Christ is completely self-serving and has no concern for the LORD or His body whatsoever. In fact, such a person is completely departed from the LORD and will bring great destruction on the body of Christ if allowed – if suffered. This is exactly what Jesus addresses in Thyatira and calls it “the depths of SATAN” himself (Revelation 2:20-24). In their self-deceived hearts, they are sure that God has called them to minister in a way He clearly forbids – just like the Jezebel who was allowed by the Ahabs in Thyatira who was self-appointed – “calleth HERSELF a prophetess.” (Revelation 2:20-24) Repent now.

“Sadly, so many women have bought into the lie of feminism, not realizing that it is just a modern word for the spirit (attributes, characteristics of Jezebel. The “Ahabs” that go along with them are the cowardly and fearful of Luke 19:27 and Rev. 21:8.” Jon Crane

Revelation 2:20-24 is about a certain self-appointed woman who was allowed by the spineless men in Thyatira to operate out of the biblically-stated order for women in the church setting.

“Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.” 1 Timothy 2:11-14

A prequalification for eldership in Christ’s body is “HUSBAND of one wife” which no woman could possibly be (1 Timothy 3:2).

Classic case of a jezebel lashing out when the Word of GOD corrects her (2 Timothy 3:16-17). Her rebellion is against God. Jezebel is utterly rebellious. She hates what God’s Word says and so the demons that control jezebels will lash out in personal attacks against the men who stand on the truth unwaveringly (such as did Elijah whom Jezebel sought to kill).

“Feminism” is nothing new. It is an ancient ploy of the enemy of all souls who has come to steal, to kill, and to destroy but Jesus came to give us life more abundantly (John 10:10). 2,500 years ago feminism was perpetrated by an evil woman named jezebel, the wife of one of Israel’s kings (Ahab). She was pure evil and so are those murderous witches who’ve perpetrated feminism on women today – which is contrary to our Creator’s design for women. Proverbs 31 is a good place to begin in discovering what God has ordained women to be. It’s a huge blessing that we have His Word in tangible form so that we are not deceived and are in His perfect will and ready to meet the LORD.

“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” Psalms 119:105

Your life will never make sense until you give it back to the One who gave it to you. You will never be happy outside of God’s will, never. You will never see a happy jezebel, feminist, period.

It all begins with repenting and placing our faith in Jesus Christ for the remission of our sins. “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved.” (Acts 16:31)

JESUS addressed Jezebel and Ahab (weak moral coward men) and so if you have a problem with that, you have a problem with the Son of God. It seems to be the very jezebels Jesus would address today who are convicted, unrepentant, and react viciously when this topic is communicated.

In fact, Christ likened jezebel to the very “depths of SATAN” – which He did with nothing or no one else, ever!

Watch this…

Revelation 2:20-24

“Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. 21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. 22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. 23 And I WILL KILL HER CHILDREN WITH DEATH; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works. 24 But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known THE DEPTHS OF SATAN, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.” Revelation 2:20-24

Recently, an unrepentant heretic protested that I was using Scripture to expose jezebel. Such a man refused to be corrected by the Word of God and was swiftly rejected as a swine (Titus 3:10-11; Matthew 7:1-5). Such a man embodies the whole root problem of the sin Jesus addressed in Thyatira – where weak biblicly illiterate moral coward men allow jezebel to function (Revelation 2:20-24).

These self-serving devils, along with jezebels they facilitate and defend could care less how many lives and marriages and families are destroyed by allowing this. Jesus says “I will kill her children with death” and likens this to “the depths of Satan.” (Revelation 2:20-24).

A Fatherless Generation is the Product of Jezebel/Ahab

“I will kill her children with death.” Revelation 2:23

“Our family ….relationships with 3 (sons) children and 8 of 9 grandchildren has been destroyed by the the Jezebel spirit …. Our relationship with daughter and 9th grandchild is very tentative due to the Jezebel spirit operating also in men.” Sharon

Increasingly we see a generation of evil doers who despise and attack all authority.

We can witness the fruit of this evil working among us. For example, we have young people murdering others with no remorse…. crime is on the rise. The fruit of women being taken out of their ordained place, the home, to take care of their husband and children (Titus 2:3-5).

With now over 80% of divorces being initiated by the women, and usually for petty, non-biblical reasons, we see children raised primarily by the mother – that is, without their dads. And because the courts give the women everything, including the man’s money, women are lured by their own sin, Satan, and our government to divorce their husbands, to betray God and destroy their own children

Men have everything to lose. Women have everything to gain (so it would seem) and this is how attorneys, and our wicked government encourages divorces. Oh, and all the judges and attorneys get a percentage. The destruction of the jezebels in our nation is inestimable. The irreparable fall out is beyond measure and especially on the children. – “I will kill her children with death.” (Revelation 2:23) When women are allowed by men to assume places of authority God ordained to be held by men, the fall out is inestimable. As was the case in Thyatira, the men were to blame for allowing it – for not doing their duties and allowing a woman to do such! Cursed!

Children raised by their mothers, without their father, in single-parent homes constitute:

63% of teen suicides;
90% of runaways and homeless children;
85% of behavior disorder patients;
71% of high school dropouts;
75% of teenagers in substance abuse rehab centers;
85% of young prison inmates.

The devil, in this age of the rise of jezebel, does nothing except viciously and systematically attack and degrade men, seeking to emasculate them. Example: 90% of the marches and ribbons are pink, never blue! Selah. Satan seeks to enthrone the woman to rule over the men which is a perversion of the order of God. Is this not what we see in Thyatira – “the depths of SATAN.” ? (Revelation 2:20-24) To destroy the fathers is to destroy lives and generations. When we disobey God, we withdraw ourselves from His blessing. And, anyone who separates children and their parents without real warranted cause, works evil in the eyes of God.

One writer notes:

“Redemptive withdrawal though is God withdrawing His protection from us and allowing the devil to attack us (the cross). He does this for a redemptive purpose. He suffers with all victims of this satanic attack. And thru this process evil self-destructs or one evil destroys another evil.”

Notice the divine promise of the very last words of the Old Testament Scriptures:

“And he shall turn the heart of the FATHERS to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.” Malachi 4:6

As God ordained, children gain their identity from their fathers and to separate this relationship is to leave children without identity.

“Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands.” Proverbs 14:1

The devil is very busy perverting, inverting the roles – that’s his job (Isaiah 5:20). This has destroyed relationships in this country.

WHEN and if a woman is truly serving God, and is married, her husband is her head, her headship and she never violates that marriage and its divine order. She will never disdain, disrespect, manipulate, or seek to control her husband (Proverbs 14:1). The order of the household is divine and is non-negotiable. “Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.” (Ephesians 5:22-23) Then, in the following verses, it says that the man is to give his life for his wife as Christ did for His church…. and that doesn’t mean the wife is to play that situation for her own self-serving agenda. Only a jezebel would do such and there won’t be even 1 jezebel in Heaven (2 Kings 9:33; Revelation 2:20-24). It’s past time we denounce all the old wives fables that we’ve in the past laughed at and yet they were insidious, wicked. You know like “he might be the head but I’m the neck and I turn the neck where I wish.” Pure witchcraft.

MESSAGES RECEIVED:

“Jezebel is a Spirit! It is neither male nor female but anyway thank you for all your good Videos 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I have known more Jezebelic men than woman but I think that is mere coincidence. I think it’s 50/50.”

REPLY:

Not one time do we see a male called jezebel in the Bible. Men can certainly and do certainly manifest the works of the flesh and yet jezebel is always female in the Bible – where’s she’s allowed to operate outside of the order of God in the family or church. That’s what we see in the OT and NT. The Old and New Testament jezebels were both women, 100%. …. “that woman Jezebel.” Rev 2:20 Yet Jesus blamed the men for allowing such corruption against His ordained order for men and women (Rev 2:20-24).

Proverbs 31 Woman [video]

“In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; 10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works. 11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. 15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they […]

Beware of the "Intercessors" [podcast]

What could possibly sound more innocent than an intercessory prayer group, right? Recently, a woman claiming and announcing herself to be “an intercessory prayer warrior for 30 years” sent me a welcome DM. Here’s the reply she was sent: There’s no such thing as an “intercessory prayer warrior” designated or appointed in the New Testament body of Christ. That premise is a bunch of witchcraft used by satan’s jezebels to infiltrate and destroy among God’s people. Repent now. Saints, this is how they gain a stronghold, how they get their evil foot in the door. They must be rejected, turned […]

8 Things Women are to Teach Other Women [podcast]

There’s nothing in God’s creation more beautiful than a virtuous woman. “That they may teach the young women” “The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; 4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, 5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.” Titus 2:3-5 May God continue to raise up God fearing women who teach the younger women as […]

The Harvest is Coming for all those Sowing the Seed of the Word [podcast]

The Joy and Expectation of Seed Sowing

What we sow, we can expect to reap (Galatians 6:7-8).

As we continue to sow the good, the incorruptible seed of God’s Word into the hearts of men, good news will continue to flow, will continue to be reaped – because God’s Word prospers in the thing where He sends it! See also 1 Peter 1:23.

“So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.” Isaiah 55:11

The following song captures the need, the importance, and the urgency of reaching the lost souls around us:

Voices, by the band Harvest

Words and Music by Jerry Williams

Voices in the city, voices in the street.

Voices in each home across the land.

Voices in the churches, saying “Peace, be still.”

Where are all the voices in My fields?

Chorus:

Millions and millions dying.

Millions and millions crying.

Millions and millions don’t know who I am.

Children on the highways

Children on the run.

Mothers in the alley ways,

They’re killing all their sons.

The world is blinded in darkness.

I’ve given them the way.

Where are all My voices to lead them out today?

(Repeat chorus)

Where are the millions who love Me?

Where are the millions who say they know Me?

Where are the millions who’ll stand and follow Me?

Exactly where you are is part of “all the world.”

“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.” Mark 16:15-16

Also, Jesus gives His Gospel as an ultimatum. Is Jesus intending that we bring the hearers of His Gospel to a decision? Seems like it. Read the passage again.

“So today I was driving through our town and saw a guy sitting on his porch reading a Jesus tract! Praise Jesus. I prayed that the words he was reading would be sealed in his heart! They are being left throughout our town. Everyday I put one on top of a newspaper stand. It is always gone next day! Seeds of God’s Word are being planted all over our town and will not return void! Isaiah 55:11. Hallelujah!” Karen Cochran

As Christ’s laborers our duty, getting the seed of our LORD’s Word into the hearts of the people, is of the utmost divine priority.

“The seed is the word of God.” Luke 8:11

Sinners are brought to Jesus, are born again, by way of the incorruptible seed of the Word of God being sown into their hearts.

“Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.” 1 Peter 2:23

When His seed is sown, God can bring the increase of conviction, drawing, and salvation (John 12:32; Romans 1:16, etc.).

“I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. 7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. 8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. 9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.” 1 Corinthians 3:6-9

The conversion of the soul to Christ comes by way of the Word of God.

“The law (Word) of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.” Psalm 19:7

What’s the future look like for those who sow, plant God’s Word in the hearts of men?

“They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. 6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves (harvest) with him.” Psalms 126:5-6

“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 15:58

“1 Corinthians 15: 58. This verse is for all of us who labor for the Lord. We are to be unshakable. Letting nothing move us from the hope of the gospel. We are servants of Christ ever ‘abounding in the work of the Lord.’ Abounding in the furthering of the gospel. Our labor ‘in the Lord’ will be rewarded. Yesterday the Lord gave me a small reward seeing that man sitting on his porch reading the Jesus tract. And since we are laborers together it is a small reward for all of us! We, each member of Christ’s body, the world over, are team Jesus! And He is our eternal reward! We shall be with Him forever in the New Jerusalem!” Karen Cochran

“For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. 11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end: 12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.” Hebrews 6:10-12

YOUR PRAYER: Heavenly Father, You sent Your only begotten Son to rescue, to forgive, to save me. If You can find and save me, You can find and save anyone! Please prepare and use me LORD Jesus. Into Thy holy hands I here and now submit my spirit to Thee dear LORD. I love You Jesus. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Do we even begin to realize the profound and immeasurable potential that lies in the power link of prayer? Jesus Christ is forever at His Father’s right hand making intercession for all of His beloved people (Heb. 7:24-25; 10:19-22).

Okay are you ready for a truth that is going to change your life forever? Read the following Bible verse slowly and for all it’s worth, drinking it in:

Whatever you do today, grab this Bible verse which will then be with you all your days!

In speaking to Christian people he was in fellowship with, this disciple of Jesus – no different than you and I – said that it was “through your prayer” that “the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ” was given to him in his life! Did you catch that?!

How does the LORD bless His people when we pray for them? Is it not by giving them a greater portion and measure of “the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ”?

LIFE CHANGING NUGGET FROM GOD’S WORD

How many of us are thrilled that “the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ” comes upon us by way of, as a result of the prayers of His saints? Wow!

Let’s read it again:

“For I know that this shall turn to my salvation (deliverance, safety, blessings) through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,” Philippians 1:19

Did you realize that the person or people you pray for are given a fresh and greater portion of “the Spirit of Jesus Christ”? According to this insightful truth out of the Holy Spirit inspired pen of the apostle Paul, the Father in Heaven blesses those we lift in prayer with the blessed Person and work of the Holy Spirit. “The spirit of Jesus Christ” is dispensed and poured out into the hearts and lives of those we pray for! This is what Paul told us was happening to him as the saints prayed for him.

Prayerlessness is Sin

Make no mistake, prayerlessness is a sin. Prayerlessness is direct disobedience to the command of God. Prayerlessness is a manifestation of faithlessness. Prayerlessness is the epitome of self-trust and self-dependency. Prayerlessness is the rejection of God in your life – the refusal to trust Him (Matthew 26:41).

“Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Matthew 26:41

YOUR PRAYER LIFE IS A CLEAR MEASURE OF HOW MUCH YOU LOVE GOD-OR NOT. love, to seek, to worship, and to trust Him. No need to seek God in prayer when pride and self-sufficiency reign on the throne of one’s heart.

The power of God working in us will be according to that which comes into us as we pray (Matthew 26:41).

PRAYER: Father in Heaven, in the name of Jesus, please forgive me for taking prayer communion, supplications (humble requests), praying for others, and prayer requests for granted. Forgive me also for the sin of prayerlessness and for not lifting others in prayer more. Thank You LORD for the unspeakable, incredible blessing of prayer. Your perfect sacrificial blood on that cross made our access to the Father possible and speaks for Your people in Heaven right now and forevermore! Jesus, please bless Your people to be faithful to request those things You have revealed in Your Word for each other! Thank You Father for pouring out Your Holy Spirit upon Your people afresh this hour and also every time we lift each other to You in prayer! Thank You right now for the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ being poured out on Your beloved people. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

The Riches of His Grace

The claims of the Father’s justification to redeem mankind could only and exclusively have been satisfied in the perfect […]
