Oh my, the things that are in the world and the church today!
If we were to dwell upon these things, we could quite well get discouraged, depressed, and distracted from our course.
Saints of God we are to keep our focus on The Most High God and His plans, and not mans.
We are to follow the path of Jesus Christ/Yeshua and His example, not mans.
We are to listen to the Holy Spirit and follow His guidance, not mans.
Men will lead us astray from the Truth of God, and they will seek to lead us by their spirit, and according to their heart, and not the Heart of God, and not The Holy Spirit.
Every man has a different teaching, a different doctrine, and all believe themselves to be right, and none are humble, all are steeped in pride and arrogance, they are crass, and rude.
Men have their own agendas, and their own plans to build their own kingdoms, and gather disciples to themselves, and they desire to have their names held up, and to be seen as great.
None dare question the doctrine of these men for fear of being openly ridiculed. Is this Christ? No! They of this type care not for His sheep, neither do they love the brethren. They seek to walk in their own way, not the way of Christ. Most of all they forget from whence God has brought them!
We need to be on guard and vigilant saints of God, for Satan seeks whom he may devour.
This is truly the time that we can trust God alone, depend on God alone, for everything we require. He, saints, should be our all in all, He should be the desire of our hearts, He should be our beloved. His word should be our Truth, His Spirit should be our teacher and our guide, and our comfort. He should be the one we run to, in time of trouble. Jesus Christ is our High Priest our intercessor. It is He alone that paid the price for our souls salvation, it is He alone that bore the stripes for our healing.
As Paul spoke to the Corinthians:
1 Corinthians 2
1. And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God.
4. And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
5. That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
6. Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:
6. Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:
7. But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:
8. Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
9. But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
10. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
11. For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
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.
13. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
16.For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

A wonderful much needed Post Sister!
Thank you, and Holy Hugs...
this guy is LOOKING for a fight. What kind of testimony is he giving here? Jesus told Peter to put away his sword and he healed the ear that was cut by Peter.
I feel saddened when I watch this. Without the Lord intervening in this man's life, I am afraid he will become just more confrontational.
Amen sister Diana...I thought of that same analogy this morning...thank you for sharing your thoughts...Yes this young fellow certainly needs to awaken...
Your closing comment Sister, oh, to have the MIND OF CHRIST!
