Fur thus says the Lord, when I look at the church today, when I look at My people; I see marks, marks of sin, marks of wickedness on the churches today.
For there are ministers, who are ministers because they called themselves to be so! They did not desire a commitment to Me, nor did I desire them to walk in the minster walk that they have said they were called too. They called themselves. They liked to be foremost in the church. They liked to be looked up too. They liked to be in power and in control.
So many of the ministers in the churches today fit that description. This is not My will. This is not My will. It is My will for the power and strength of the Lord Jesus Christ (of Me), saith the Lord, to flow through humble servants of obedience. And they do exist! And they are out there serving Me in the humility that I call them to!
But there are so many who have led the church into pride, who walk in the spirit of pride, who have destroyed the lambs with the sin of pride; all so they could be looked up too, so they can make a name for themselves, so they can be in control!
Thus says the Lord God, this is coming to an end. I am going through the spirit of the churches and what is right will stand fast, and what is wrong will rise up in ugliness and fight what is right.
But My people will stand, says the Lord; for they know Me, says the Lord; and they know the Spirit of Me, says the Lord; and they shall follow after their Shepherd, says the Lord.
Here and know this: that when you see the real division occurring between those that serve and those that rise up to control and to take charge, note where you stand. For those who rise up in power to fight in this day, to stand against the things of the Lord––they shall make great noise, and they are evil. And they are the evil that is the problem in the churches today!!
Listen and know this! Those who quietly and humbly continue to serve, those are the ones who have My heart, those are the ones that are serving Me, those are the ones whose hearts are truly dedicated to Me. They will take wickedness piled upon them AND NOT RETALIATE!! That’s how you will know the righteous ones! They will not retaliate. They will love their enemies! They will do good to them that hate them! They will pray for those who hate them! They will love those who hate them! THAT’S HOW YOU WILL KNOW THE RIGHTEOUS ONES from the wicked ones in the days to come!!!
For the Spirit of Love flows through the Spirit of Jesus, for it is the same!
Thus says the Lord, so be it. There has to be a division between right and wrong. I cannot allow the church to continue in the sin it is. So says the Lord God!!
