In a supernatural dream (vision
at night) of The LORD God Almighty, The LORD Jesus Christ and The Holy Spirit
in the morning of 19th July 2014, I found myself in a place that looked like a presentation hall (a
preaching altar).
So
in front of the hall were different servants of God from different countries;
all kinds of servants of God you can think of were all there, they were on the
same platform. Each of them was speaking while standing, one at a time. As they
spoke, I was made to understand that not all of them were genuine servants of The
LORD.
The vision of The LORD then ended.
The message that was
imparted in my heart from this very powerful communication of The LORD is that there are genuine servants of The LORD
and there are also the false ones. And a time has come when wolves in sheep’s clothings
are masquerading as shepherds of the flock.
So everyone everywhere on
the entire earth must be careful to
ensure that they are not led astray by the false shepherds.
SHALOM!!!
The question, that then
follows is: How can one know the genuine servants of The LORD from the false
ones? So below are some of the fundamental criteria to interrogate your Preacher/Pastor/Reverend/Bishop/Pope/Prophet/Deacon
or whatever name they are called to determine what type of a servant they are:
1-Is
your preacher talking about and preaching about the Blood of The LORD Jesus Christ and the essence of the cross
i.e. of everyone denying themselves and taking up their cross and following The
LORD Jesus Christ? And that our redemption comes through the crucifiction of
The LORD Jesus Christ on the cross; whereupon He shed His blood. A genuine
servant of The LORD Must do so.
Romans
3:25-26 “God
presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the
shedding of his blood—to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his
forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished— he did it to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time,
so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.”
Luke
9:23-26 ‘“Then he said to them all: “Whoever
wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and
follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever
loses their life for me will save it. What good is it for someone to gain the whole
world, and yet lose or forfeit their very self? Whoever is ashamed of me and my words, the
Son of Man will be ashamed of them when he comes in his glory and in the
glory of the Father and of the holy angels.”’
2-Is
your preacher talking about and preaching about Repentance for the forgiveness of sins and turning away from sins?
A genuine servant of The LORD Must do so.
Mathew
4:17 ‘“From that time on Jesus began to preach, “Repent,
for the kingdom of heaven has come near.”’
Mathew 3:6-10 ‘“Confessing their sins, they were
baptized by him in the Jordan River. But
when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to where he was
baptizing, he said to them: “You brood
of vipers! Who warned you to
flee from the coming wrath? Produce
fruit in keeping with repentance. And do not think you can say to
yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up
children for Abraham. The
ax is already at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce
good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.”’
3- Is
your preacher talking about and preaching about walking in Righteousness, Holiness, Truth and Complete Surrender to
The LORD Jesus Christ? A genuine servant of The LORD Must do so.
Hebrew
12:14 “Make every effort to live in peace with everyone and to be holy; without
holiness no one will see the Lord.”
4- Is
your preacher talking about and preaching about the very imminent coming of The LORD Jesus Christ to Rapture His
bride into Heaven; and the need to prepare the way for the coming of The LORD?
A genuine servant of The LORD Must do so.
A false shepherd will be preoccupied with making you comfortable on this earth i.e. earthly- minded instead of being Heavenly-minded (looking up for your redemption is near).
A false shepherd will be preoccupied with making you comfortable on this earth i.e. earthly- minded instead of being Heavenly-minded (looking up for your redemption is near).
Luke
21:25-28 “There will be signs in the sun, moon
and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the
roaring and tossing of the sea. People will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming
on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken. At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in
a cloud with power and great glory. When these things begin to take place, stand
up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.”
5- Is
your preacher talking about and preaching about the anointing of The Holy Spirit and the gifts of The Holy Spirit
and the great move of The LORD and praying for the baptism of The Holy Spirit
and Holy Fire; in other words, is your preacher talking about and
preaching about being Born-again and
the renewing of your mind through the anointing of The Holy Spirit and the
cleansing/purification/refining through the Holy Fire from the throne
room of Heaven? A genuine servant of The LORD Must do so.
John 3:3-8 ‘“Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one
can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.” “How
can someone be born when they are old?” Nicodemus asked. “Surely they cannot
enter a second time into their mother’s womb to be born!” Jesus
answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter
the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to
flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must
be born again.’ The wind blows wherever it pleases. You
hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So
it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”’
Romans
12:1-2 “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of
God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a
living sacrifice, holy
and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the
pattern of this world, but
be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then
you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
6- Is
your preacher talking about and preaching about the eternal life or death that comes after the life on the earth i.e. in
Heaven or Hell respectively, and how/why people eventually find themselves in either of the
two eternal places? A genuine servant of The LORD Must do so.
Luke
13:1-5 ‘“Now there were some present at that
time who told Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices. Jesus answered, “Do
you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans
because they suffered this way? I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish. Or those eighteen who died when the tower in
Siloam fell
on them—do you think they were more guilty than all the others living in
Jerusalem? I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish.”’
7- Is
your preacher talking about and preaching about the fact that The LORD Jesus Christ paid the ultimate price (sacrifice)
at the cross so that you may receive salvation through faith (believing)
i.e. He paid it all without any outstanding balance in your account? A genuine
servant of The LORD Must do so.
A false shepherd will tell
you that you need to sow a seed so that you may reap the benefits of salvation i.e.
they will tell you that for you to receive your blessing/salvation/redemption/healing/success
you must hand over to them some colossal amounts of money (or piece of property
or offer sexual favours) as a seed you are sowing. In essence the false shepherds
are saying that there was some outstanding amounts that The LORD Jesus Christ
did not clear (pay all) at the cross regarding your account.
John
3:16-21 ‘“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that
whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the
world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever
does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the
name of God’s one and only Son. This is the verdict: Light has
come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their
deeds were evil. Everyone who
does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their
deeds will be exposed. But whoever
lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that
what they have done has been done in the sight of God.”’
Romans
3:23-26 “For
all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. God presented Christ as a sacrifice of
atonement, through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith. He
did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had
left the sins committed beforehand unpunished—he did it to demonstrate his righteousness at the
present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith
in Jesus.”
8- Is your preacher talking about and
preaching about the Bible i.e. Is he/she
talking about or preaching about what is in the Bible; in other words, does the
place where you attend fellowship, a Bible believing and a Bible centered
fellowship/church ? A genuine servant (fellowship/church) of The LORD
Must do so.
A false shepherd will
introduce teachings that are contrary to what is in the Bible and will foolishly
twist the word of The LORD to suit his/her (and congregations/listeners)
desires and appetite.
2nd Timothy 4:3-5 “ For the time
will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to
suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers
to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn
their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. But you, keep your head in all situations,
endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your
ministry.”
SHALOM!!!
John
10:25-30 ‘“Jesus answered, “I did tell
you, but you do
not believe. The works I do in my
Father’s name testify about me, but you do not believe because you are not my
sheep. My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall
never perish; no one will
snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who
has given them to me, is greater
than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand. I and the Father are one.”’
Mathew
7:15-20 ‘“Watch
out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are
ferocious wolves. By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes
from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? Likewise,
every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree
cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is
cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.”’
PREPARE THE WAY FOR THE COMING OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IN
ABSOLUTE REPENTANCE, RIGHTEOUSNESS, HOLINESS, TRUTH AND COMPLETE SURRENDER TO
THE LORD JESUS CHRIST (YAHUSHUA HA MASHIACH). TIME IS ABSOLUTELY OVER; THE
MESSIAH JESUS CHRIST IS IMMINENTLY COMING TO PICK HIS BRIDE!!!
Precious Jesus,
I acknowledge today that you are LORD and savior of all mankind,
and today I have recognized my shortfall,
I repent and turn away from all sin.
Please cover me with your precious blood,
and establish your word in my life,
that I may be found in righteousness and holiness
and write my name in your book of life
and baptize me with the power of the Holy Spirit
in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
Amen.
Shalom!!! Shalom!!! Shalom!!!
