WHAT GOD TOLD ME - Adjusting This Your Mirror!
The Lord picked a discourse with me and I sat back to listen to Him.
I was ruminating on our being prospered eventually - building a house for the Lord for all nations to lift up holy hands to the Most High. As this went on, the Lord met me in my thought. He came with an interruptive explanation. His explanation was explanatory and insightful enough. Thank you my Father for always being at hand.
The Lord said, "while that is good, do you know there are those who disbelieve in what is too big and popular? You wanna know why? They just hold the belief that if a thing is God's initiated, owned, sponsored and controlled, it won't be too exceeding for them to see the end of its elasticity. Especially in this part of the world - Africa; when the Lord really enlarges you to the extent that you pull down your old barn in order to build new accommodating ones for the multitude of harvest that is beginning to break your wine skin, they'll begin suggestive talks like, "we certainly (kuku) don't know whether he's being aided by something other than this our same God." Nothing mysterious. Read this:
Luke 12:16-18, KJV
"16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully: 17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits? 18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods."
Did you see in there consequences of being blessed? I pray for you, "let your ground bring forth plentifully. Let your handiwork bring exceeding yield. Let what you plough or work at bring you such productivity that you'll need greater store houses." Such work, only God does it. You can plant or water as a minister but it's God that gives the increase. When the time thus comes that such net breaking, ship sinking and wine skin bursting blessings begin to visit as a reward, you can't but look for means of accommodating it. One of the resultant effects of too much blessing in a ministry is a defying population. It'll be so huge that you'll need to pull down your old auditorium to build a new one. In some cases, if the population is growing abysmally and at a rate that your often calculation can't catch up with, you may need a wall less church. It is God who solitarily does this. But as this happens, get ready to contend with the testimonies of those who would say, "it is by another spirit you've been thus hastened and brought this far." In Jesus' days, He was accused of same and He answered them back according to their folly.
Matthew 12:24, 27, KJV
"24 But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils. 27 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges."
So, though it is God working in their own days, they'll distance themselves away from Him. The veil would be, "I don't want to join the devil or what I don't know its foundation." I'll repeat it, that somebody's speed is so enhanced that he reached destination so timely doen't mean he has trespassed or transgressed. God's hand might have come upon him to outrun even Ahabs of his own days to the gates of Jezreel (their destination) - I Kings 18:46.
Now, listen to me the prejudiced, envious, jealous, mockers and slow in heart to believe. That you're not yet due for promotion doesn't connote those whose own have come hurries theirs also. There's no time I'm in the community of men where discussion/testimony on the recent promotion or enlargement of someone is ongoing that there won't be someone at least who would interject with, "who knows how he got it?" Though none knows except himself and God (his witness), yet this should not condescend or handicap you into seeing men as "there's none that's righteous." There are still lovers of God than the world. There's still a remnant. You might have been caught up in the error of Elijah who wasn't seeing and speaking right. He was professing with all assurance, "only I am left (I Kings 19:14)." It took God to show him 7,000 are still in reserve who have not yet bowed to Baal or kiss him (I Kings 19:18). Immediately, he became a quenched raging fire. May I announce to all of you hearing us today that we are part of those alluded "7,000" doing it right with utmost loyalty to the Head of the Church - Jesus. We have not aided our calling with anything other than Jesus and His finished work. It is by that His name "by which all knees are assured would kneel and all tongues are emphasised would confess" that we're doing all that appears and you see and you'll yet see. We can co confess with Peter and John that it is neither our power, holiness or another's but Jesus' only.
Acts 3:12, KJV
"And when Peter saw it, he answered unto the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or why look ye so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk?"
It is rather whose? Jesus' name and faith in same (Acts 3:16).
Greater greatness is coming. You will see what will trouble your sight! We will pull down to build up in order to accommodate all God is sending us. Before this work, you'll see numerous overflows which would culminate into new building projects to house the heritage of God. At such time, any soul especially those whose ways are not clean or upright in heart may condescend to say, "do you know where he gets his power from?" We have learnt that "to the pure, everything is pure. To the crooked, things are twined also." How people see at times is a product of their own crooked experience which has intertwined them not to see uprightly again. They always infer others are failing and living unworthily because they are. The reason for their big questioning suspicion on who could get it right! Vain people!
If God is your own Father and the Spirit, your Shepherd, can't you trust Him enough to be led to a genuine house of worship that added no sorrows? Why then accuse a denomination or lay a minister bare because the Lord is his upper arm. I tell all of you today, a time comes soon that God's work shall appear to all the earth. At such time, you'll serve as our witnesses that we have had days of no miracles before God reveals us to His body and the Gentiles. This is so that you may defend us at the gates yourself. That's why we're careful leaving a good witness behind as we go.
These are the discussions God brought to me on why some despite seeing the move won't join it in their time because they're trapped in the thinking of "who knows what they're doing?" This fear ought not to be fear at all. I'll say, "if you're really born again, you can't but have a witness about who to follow or which church to go to. Jesus is the head of the church. He knows churches with candle sticks before Him. He'll send you to one and to a Shepherd who will shepherd you in the integrity of his heart and skillfulness of his hands.
Psalms 78:70, 72, KJV
"70 He chose David also his servant, and took him from the sheepfolds: 72
So he fed them according to the integrity of his heart; and guided them by the skilfulness of his hands."
God solely does this. Don't choose a church or pastor for yourself. You can be led. Let the Spirit knit your heart with a minister. Such model minister's ministry is often your ministry also. Let deep calls unto the deep. At all these symptoms, you'll receive your pastor from God. Henceforth, stop believing what is correct and godly should only just be a parlour thing - like a church where all the members know themselves without elasticity and meeting of foreign tongues/nationalities. That's not the kind of church God is showing me. He's moving on me and breathing to me a church of many languages. Like the one we saw on Pentecost's Day. There will be many departments and you'll hear people speak in their own tongues.
Acts 2:5, 9-11, KJV
"5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven. 9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,
10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes, 11
Cretes and Arabians...."
This is a church where as the minister ministers, translation goes to people in their own languages because none must be left out of this move of God. If the vultures always gather where the carcass is, should gatherers in their different tongues and from their different nationalities not be a beneficiary of God's ongoing work. I see a church of a "thousand languages." I see all nations represented. Say with me, "Jesus to the world!"
