A word to His People
Hear the word of the Lord to His people!!
Do you consider yourself a child of the Most High? If you do, then the words of the Lord penned by the Prophet Jeremiah applies to you as well!!
Jer 10:2 So
says Jehovah, Do not learn the way of the nations; and do not be
terrified at the signs of the heavens; for the nations were terrified
at them.
So
many of us are doing just that! Learning the ways of the Nations and
not of God! We do it and say that it is "To reach this generation", but
I do not ever see a clause for that in His word.
Our Churches (buildings) are run like businesses, and do not stand on His word, nor do they preach holiness (by God's Standards).
If
you are not familiar with the book of Jeremiah, I would advise you to
familiarize yourselves with it. The Lord has told me that we as His
children, are in the same spiritual predicament, and are in the same
spiritual times as when Jeremiah preached to the Israelites to repent
of their selfish ways and sin.
We find His word confirmed in the New testament;
Rom 12:2
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the
renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and
acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Eph 4:23-24
And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; And that ye put on the new
man. which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
Col 3:10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
1Co 2:12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
2Co 5:17 So that if any one is in Christ, that one is a new creature; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.
So
you see, as believers we are new creatures, told to put off the old
man, to not pattern ourselves after the world, but be renewed in our
minds and the spirit of our minds so that we may prove that God's will
for us is perfect, good, and acceptable. We are told not to be as the world is, but be as God is.
