GOD IS SERIOUS WHEN IT COMES TO HIS WORD…
QUESTION IS.. ARE YOU???? BE VERY AWARE…
In my study this morning…
Ezekiel 13:1-4”The word of the Lord came to me: Son of man, prophesy against the prophet of Israel who are now prophesying. Say to those who prophesy out of their own imagination: ’Hear the word of the Lord!
This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Woe to the foolish prophets who follow their own spirit and have seen nothing! Your prophets O Israel, are like jackals among ruins.
(6-9)Their visions are false and their divinations are a lie. They say, “The Lord declares,” when the Lord has not sent them; yet they expect their words to be fulfilled. Have you not seen false visions and uttered lying divinations when you say, ”The Lord declares, “though I have not spoken? “ therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says
Because of your false words in lying visions, I am against you, declares the Sovereign Lord. My hand will be against prophets who sees false visions and utter lying divinations.
19) By lying to my people, Who listens to lies, you have killed those who should not have died and have spared those who should not live”.
MY THOUGHTS:
The warnings in the above scriptures is directed to all those who preach, teach, or those who falsely proclaim Gods Holy Word, with whitewash, lies, deceit, just for popularity purposes.. Or to say the things that make people happy.
Such people don’t care about the truth!!! False teachers have a large following!!!
Many so called spiritual leaders assure that God’s promises bring good health and material success!!!
This might be comforting but is so further from the truth!!!
GOD’S OWN SON DID NOT HAVE AN EASY LIFE ON EARTH!!!
Beware!!! False teachings are a “whitewash” — a pleasing front!!! That will never hold up under God’s scrutiny…
I end with this truth…
False teaching bring a false sense of security..
It leads us to develop idols in our hearts in pursuit of reputation, acceptance, wealth, or sensual pleasures with the intensity and commitment that should be reserved for serving God!!! OUCH!!!
Lord!!!
Lord let it begin with me…
Let it continue with me..
I will not proclaim your Falsely.
And when a fail to follow your Word because of my sinful nature, I will continue to seek you, pray, worship and repent, as your infallible Word cleanses me, and once again brings me to a right standing before YOU O LORD!! I humbly thank you for your sacrifice.. Amen
