THOUGHTS:
=======================
Where are the pastors? Where are the apostles? Where are the teachers that suppose to be teaching the truth of God we have few that we can trust to come forth with the word of God without tainting it with there own beliefs , the verse today is telling us that the sheep of God are lost because its no shepherd.
What is happening today is people arent being led by God ,Men nor Women of God they are getting lead astray , which causes people not to trust what they see and hear in churches , a-lot of churches are filled with people that are wanting to pretend but no one isn't hearing the Holy Spirit nor being lead by Him , yes we do have a few that will stand and say the the Holy Spirit says this or that but are they living this too ,no they aren't they are do as I say not as I do type of men and women and thats not how we suppose to live our lives.
This generation that is coming up needs to see strong pastors and strong teachers leading them to or back to God , or even into a deeper relationship with God , but how can they see it if everything is happening in the church of God but teaching ,we see the church or people of God compromise their beliefs and they taint the word of God to keep views or people in the church. I am here to tell you people of God we can't rely on people, and we can't rely on nothing but the Holy Spirit to teach us. The Bible clearly states don't be transformed , don't become this world . Be different, in this world, stand strong and be of good courage , we as children of God must use discernment.
"So my people are wandering like lost sheep; they are attacked because they have no shepherd."
The word of God said the sheep are being attacked because there is no shepherd; it is no shepherd because no one wants to take on leading people to Christ because they are quiet ,they dont want to let go of what makes them happy, we have to let go of the sins we find comfort in so that God may use us. We have to allow the Holy Spirit to clean us and renew us and change us , we can't look at what makes us feel good but we must look at what is getting me closer to God .
James 3:1 Dear brothers and sisters, not many of you should become teachers in the church, for we who teach will be judged more strictly."
It says here we will be held to a high standard; we will be judged strictly because to become a teacher and to lead someone a stray by our beliefs that aren't in the word that is just wrong; that is why we must wait for God to lead us, a lot of time we find people in the pulpit because everyone convinces them this is where they should be ; this world will lead us wrong if we allow it to; we can't allow this world to replace our principles for something that isn't going to last; what's in this world is temporary satisfaction, temporary happiness, nothing will last but the word of God and we need to preach the truth.
Ephesians 4:1 I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called,"
Whatever your calling is, walk in a manner that is worthy of it, which means allowing your life to be an example for others. We dont want our life to be anything less than what God is calling us to do a lot of times, we will feel it nesscarry, or people will tell us to water down the truth of God to lure people in so they may listen, but it doesn't matter if your teaching to 1 make sure whatever you say is the truth because when we become a teacher or whatever it is God has placed in us , we have those souls tied to our hand, and they are watching us and if you think for one second what we do dont matter it does.
***Today when Jesus was on this earth teaching people heard him and they learned from him because he brought the TRUTH WITH HIM AND HE WAS THE TRUTH !! , when it's your time to teach, make sure you capture not just their ears but their heart and mind make sure your lead by the Holy Spirit and not your flesh ,and whatever you pour into someone's spirit that is what's going to stick we always need to make sure what we are receiving is from above and not from the flesh. Allow God to show you what your true and right calling is , today allow him to teach you so you may teach others . ©Seer~ Prophetess Lee
