On Dec. 17th, 2024, I had a dream where I looked down and saw the ground open up with fire blazing from underground. I then looked up and saw fire falling from the sky. The dream immediately shifts, and I'm talking with a friend. A friend who began to say false things about the book of Revelation. False things that she had heard from another mutual friend that she now believed. I felt the fear of the Lord because I knew they both were deceived. I said I must study the Bible from Genesis to Revelation because I do not want to be overtaken by deception as they have. (Both of these women are leaders within the church)
There is a great deception taking place within the four walls of the church. The falling away has begun. Those who once took heed to sound doctrine have allowed themselves to be overtaken by a spirit of deception. They have been overtaken by a false gospel. A false jesus. If not careful, those who sit at the table with these people will too be overtaken by the spirit of deception. A deception that will lead many to hell if they do not awaken and turn back to their first Love.
The Father is about to PURIFY His church! May the fire of God fall and burn away everything that does not reflect Him! It is time for purification and sanctification! It is time to STOP LEADING OTHERS ASTRAY BECAUSE OF HOW WE CHOOSE TO LIVE OUR LIVES. LIFESYTLES THAT DOES NOT REFLECT JESUS.
We, as the church, should be walking billboards for Jesus! But instead, we have become walking billboards for satan! We are involved in all kinds of malicious acts. Many prophets and prophetic people are overtaken by the spirit of divination rather than prophesying from a pure stream. Many leaders are overtaken by the spirit of pride with their ego front and center rather than choosing the way of humility! Many leaders and church going people gossip about one another. Repentance is surely in order!
BAD COMPANY, STILL CORRUPTS GOOD CHARACTER.
If you give the enemy an open door, he will take it. The things you allow into your eye gate and ear gate matter and will begin to affect you over time. The enemy is subtle. He plants one seed at a time. Before you know it, he has planted an entire garden in your mind. If you are not sober and alert to pluck up the seeds that have been sown, those seeds will begin to produce fruit in your life. Fruit that will lead you to a life of destruction in a way where you were not aware because of deception. He can easily do this through voices you trust. Voices that have been bewitched themselves. Voices that speak with a tongue of a serpent. BEWARE.
It is vital that we be rooted and grounded in the Word. Rightly dividing the Word of TRUTH. Studying to show ourselves approved. Meditating and not just memorizing scripture.
It is important that you have a clear understanding of the difference between attending church and being a follower of Jesus Christ. It is important that you understand that the necessity in sitting at the feet of Jesus is extremely important over serving Him. Some serve and choose not to spend any intimate time with Him. He absolutely loves YOU and wants to spend alone time with you.
Why do you serve? From what heart posture do you serve? Is it for the praises of man, or is it out of the love you have for the Father and obedience to Him? You will not be able to serve God's people well from an empty place. Your cup can only be filled to overflowing by first sitting at the feet of Jesus. You need the rivers of living water to flow into you so that they then can flow through you into others. Only at the feet of Jesus will you be filled to overflowing.
JESUS OVER EVERYTHING!
John 7:38, "He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water."
2 Timothy 4:3-4, "For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths."
2 Peter 2:1-3, "But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction. And many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of truth will be blasphemed. And in their greed they will exploit you with false words. Their condemnation from long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep."
Luke 10:39-42, "And she had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet and heard His word. But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she approached Him and said, “Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Therefore tell her to help me.” And Jesus answered and said to her, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things. "But one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her.”
2 Timothy 2:15, "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."
