Today’s word is a word of instruction and confirmation for some, particularly for those who claim and know themselves to be ministers and sharers of the faith of God and Ambassadors of the ministry of Jesus Christ.
During this season of resurrection and restoration of the faith through the children and families of God, I hear the voice of the lord calling his ministers and representatives back to a pure uncomplicated message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
God is directing those who stand in pull pits, lead ministries and “evangelize” proclaiming to be representatives of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to step out of the messaging of this world and step back into the call to restore God’s pre-existing glory.
And that message is simple:
John 3:14-17
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up.
That whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have eternal life.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
God is calling us to leave the shackles of the world behind and loose our ministries and faith from the chains of selfishness, separatism, division, deceit, and condemnation that is the standard operating procedures of the world of confusion.
It is time to restore the faith in the ministry, power, goodness and grace of God made available through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. That cannot be communicated if those who claim to represent Christ are talking about the same things that are being discussed on 24 cable news.
It is time to uplift the lost, the enslaved, those held captive and follow the model of Christ extending grace, compassion and unwavering love to all.
For it is written, that Christ came into the world not to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved. Therefor as representatives of Christ, if we are preaching, teaching, talking and living condemnation we are out of order and no longer in the flow of Christ.
We know as the scripture instructs us that the flesh profits nothing.
John 6:63
It is the spirit that quickens the flesh profits nothing: the words that I speak unto you, are spirit, and they are life.
If we know that the flesh profits nothing and it is the spirit that is the pathway to salvation, then why as representatives of Christ are you spending all your preaching and teaching breath talking about the flesh and what someone in this world is doing with their flesh.
As Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law; once belief in God and Christ is restored through spirit, the presence of Christ in the lives of man will transform minds, hearts and behaviors.
Galatians 3:13
Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us; for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangs on a tree.
Brothers and sisters, I encourage you to return to a pure uncomplicated message of God’s love and Salvation. Shine the compassionate light of Christ into this world by sharing the invitation to join the family of God through Jesus Christ and let the holy spirit transform, restore, and resurrect.
For we ourselves as flesh, cannot and do not save a soul or restore the spirit. It is God and God alone through the pathway made available by Jesus Christ that man can receive salvation and their minds be renewed.
Romans 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.
Let us be reminded of Titus 3:2-5
To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men.
For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared.
Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost.
Let us stop preaching the condemnation of this world and reclaim the alter of Jesus Christ through the lens and knowledge that salvation and the love of God is available to and for all.
And once we extend the invitation, if we truly believe as we profess, the spirit of God will step in to wash, regenerate and renew.
Romans 13:8
Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
1 John 5:1
Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and everyone that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.
1 John 4:10-11
Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
Galatians 2:21
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
Give the invitation.
God will do the rest.
