You don’t mind getting up, putting your best clothes on to get to church to worship, yet neglecting the simple instructions He gives you such as waking up to spend time in His presence, reading His word and submitting to Him, your leaders and your husband. When it comes to loving those who rub you the wrong way and forgiving those who step on your toes, you’re not inclined to doing that

NOT ALL THAT GLITTERS IS GOLD! (2)
The LORD is looking to and fro, in search of whom He will show Himself mightily in this end-time. But He will not see and choose as the world sees, but by His Spirit will search the heart. If He finds your heart pure with Him, then you will find favor with Him.
If you know you have fallen short in His glory, don’t cover it up. People of God, come unto him with a repentant heart and He will restore you. You might be influencing people with your words; with how long you’ve been in the ministry. You are glittering in the sight of men with titles, but you know you are not standing right with God spiritually; the Spirit of God has departed from you.
Our “scribes” have made people to believe it takes long prayers for God to do anything. I believe in sacrifice and perseverance but that is not the only way God operates. They have nullified the simplicity of the gospel to exploit people. There are ministers who scare people with demonic visions so they can exploit them to fulfill their selfish ambition. What will take a simple application of a spiritual principle, we ‘spiritualize’ and complicate with words that have no bearing to the situation so they can get people to depend on them. When they are not needed they feel threatened. Scribes have made Christianity tough and complicated. They do that so the spiritually weak will need them.
Read moreOur scribal leaders are so captivated with titles to elevate themselves above others. They want their accolades to be ranted from the podium. Our leaders are puffed up with titles yet are void of spiritual authority to back it up. We have leaders who masquerade around with titles who don’t have the character to back it up. They bear the office but do not care about the responsibility of their office. They want the title of the calling but not the service of such calling. We have so much titles but not the corresponding services. We have much apostles than apostolic work.

LIVING IN AUTHORITY – PART 2
Christ will not give His authority without His presence. Therefore, anyone who exhibits spiritual authority without Christ’s presence is in deception. It is needful for every genuine minister of God to have Christ’s presence to validate his commission because without him you are in the category of the scribes. Any interpretative skills, oratory or theatrics without His presence cannot raise disciples in the caliber that Christ expects. It takes Christ’s presence to raise genuine disciples of Christ. The power of transformation from worldliness to Christianity resides in Christ presence.

DECEPTION OF THE NOISES – PART 3
All our spiritual expressions without Christ can only affect the outward senses. It will only take the Spirit of Christ to impact the spirit of man. Our eloquence, rhetoric is only able to touch the intellect, stimulate the emotions, strengthen the will but they fail to enter in to the spirit to impart life. Without the Spirit of Christ all our ministrations will be just soulical and peripheral. It takes the Spirit of Christ for the spirit of man to experience the things of God.

DECEPTION OF THE NOISES – PART 2
The indispensable character of divine love is that which makes valid all other spiritual expressions. Without it, our wonder working faith, devoted works avail nothing. The lack of godly love makes all other gifts without value. This is because godly love is the authentic proof of God’s presence. It takes God for one to express divine love. Hence lack of divine love indicates His absence. Without God, our thunderous “tongues”, deep revelations, transcendental wisdom, prophetic insight, self sacrifice etc has no spiritual impact. They are just like noisy resounding brass or a clanging cymbal. Though these expressions might sound powerful and godly, they cannot stand the aggression of the enemy at the day of adversity.

DECEPTION OF THE NOISES – PART 1
DECEPTION OF THE NOISES – PART 1
Have we dared question the spiritual significance of our utterances that we supposedly utter in honor of the Lord? What is the worth of our rapturous praise, our pious worship and our transcendental teachings before God? What is the bases or foundation of our homage to God? What is the intent or purpose of our religious excitement or enthusiasm? Is it a reflection of God’s presence or an expression of our confidence in a religious symbolism or sacrament.? For without Him, our expressions of piety are empty religious sentiments and are deceptious noises without any spiritual worth. It is the presence of God that adds value to our homage. Without His presence our expressions of faith are mere noise and bears no spiritual significance. It is God that determines whether our religious expressions are noise or music in the spiritual realm. He is the absolute with which to test the veracity of our spiritual melody. In His absence, our religious sentiments are insignificant and has no spiritual impact against the enemy.
