There Has Been A Change

All I can tell you is that I did not discern the same spirit Bro. Strange did so time will declare who was right and who was wrong. The Bible said to leave the prophet alone and the day will declare whether he is of God or not.

By the way, have you ever been wrong about someone? Has there ever been a time when you did not discern a spirit?

No, that is not right.

I looked carefully into the faces of some of the old Elders there. Some of them also recognize what I am talking about. Sadly, they are intimidated and are afraid not to walk in lock step with the rest...so for unity's sake, they choose to remain silent instead. They fear their own reputation above that of the interest of the kingdom of Gold. They treasure the fellowship more than fellowship with God.

On a very long fast, God once spoke to me, "You can be man's man or you can be MY man but you cannot be both." It seems that too many men have chosen to be Man's man instead of God's man. When you walk with God, you MUST walk with him ALONE.

I am reminded of the scripture in Haggai that states "Who [is] left among you that saw this house in her first glory? and how do ye see it now? [is it] not in your eyes in comparison of it as nothing?"

What we see right now is considered "nothing" compared to what God has done in the past. But the promise to me is found in the verses that follow this one.

St Matt, your voice is important to me and I always read your posts.

This is the word the Lord gave me a few months ago which He quickened to me while I was reading and I'm reminding Him of it frequently:

Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month. And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the fats shall overflow with wine and oil. And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed. And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the LORD your God, and none else: and my people shall never be ashamed.

Ask ye of the LORD rain in the time of the latter rain; so the LORD shall make bright clouds, and give them showers of rain, to every one grass in the field.


I'm looking for more than a trickle.

A prophet spoke to my pastor this past Sunday of a 500 soul revival. We'll see if he is a prophet or not. Nevertheless I've been holding onto a word God spoken to me over 20 years ago of a similar nature. It will come to pass.

Go on up to battle. You will prosper. Go up. No harm will come. All of us prophets agree together. You will prosper, Ahab. Sorry that poor old Miciah had to stand alone. Even he at first lied. He also told them exactly what the prophets of Baal had prophesied. In the end, he told both Ahab and Jehoshaphat the truth. He saw Ahab's ruin and destruction.

Amen and Amen....These things are true.

Jesus was accused of having the spirit of Beelzebub.

The religious could not see past their traditions and law.

Peter even had to be spoken to, by God about the gentiles.

Things change.

yes brother, I have thought about it. That is the reason that I've been in tears all night long last night, until almost dawn before I finally fell asleep.

My heart aches even now, as I break down once again. I can't help it. Sorrow fills my very soul. I will be in church tonight. I could not bring myself to attend this morning though I was told that both bro. Tenny and another brother (black) that I did not know brought a wonderful message on prayer. I think I could have enjoyed both except for my heaviness.

What is the 'Cathedral of Wisdom?"

My My Bro. It looks like God would have put you as leader of this organization since you are the only one willing to stand up for truth. Give me a break! My father is 74 years old. He was there last night. He is a wise old man of God and believe me, he is not afraid to stand up for right.

Sorry my Bro., again I disagree. Yes, we must stand for right, but you are not the only one ready to do so.

I agree with you.

Sometimes because we do not understand things we just say they are of the devil.

So....., am I the only one wondering who this "prophet" is?
