MONEY IN THE CHURCH



Business in the House Of God
What has become of the Church? Where is the Holiness of God? What is wrong with the Pentecost? Why money in the Church?  What does the bible really say about money? Buying and selling is not bad. When it comes to God’s sanctuary, then buying and selling is and should be least expected. Why do people sell and buy the anointing of the Holy Spirit, how could this really be possible. Who can buy from God? This act of blatant buying and selling in the House of Jehovah God has led to great fall in the Church of Christ.   It has given a way to materialism and prosperity in the house of the Lord. The Father is not in any way pleased with this blatant preaching of Money in His house. The House of God is a house of prayer not a selling and buying ground. See what Jesus did when He found out that His father’s house was turned into a business premise. The fact is even worse that He found them selling “doves” a symbol of the Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit can never be bought. No miracle can ever be bought. God cannot be bribed. This is a great deception and a lie, Holy Spirit will only dwell on a clean vessel , a holy vessel, a sanctified vessel, so let no one cheat  you. The reason I share this is for edification ,for  a warning if you may be experiencing  this sort things in your local church fellowship. Again this article is not against tithing but, blatant preaching and love of money in the Church.
“And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money changers, and the seats of them that sold doves, and said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer ; but ye have made it a den of thieves…” Matthew 21:12-13
the church is turned into a business house not only on the anointing but also others like buying of miracles, sowing a seed to get miracles, this are not the way of true to get true intimacy with God. The Lord wants us to seek Him in a more personal way, in a closer relationship, in the high way of
Holiness. The Love of money is the root of all evil, no nobody can serve two masters at the same time. You cannot serve God and Money at the same, it is impossible.
“You were busy buying and selling and this led you to violence and sin. So I forced you to leave my holy  mountain, and the angel who guarded you drove you away from the sparkling gems…. You did such evil in buying and selling that your places of worship were corrupted…”  Ezekiel 28:16-18

The Repercussions of the  Love of money in the Church

  •  It leads to violence and sin.
  •   It drives us away from God’s presence
  •  The protection wall around us are brought down
  •   We lose the gifts of the Holy Spirit
  •    Our hearts become corrupted and the presence of God leaves 
  •    It is a highway to the pits of hell
  •  Pretense and prejudice
  • There is no power of God

     As one observes ,you can  clearly see that there is liberty of worship, There is emphasis on praise and song and emotional engagement. But, there is no real power of God.

The Lord is not for the Love of money, He feeds the faithful and they shall never go hungry, the Lord cares for all their needs. He knows their wants. Due to lack of faith, men have gone miles a head into initiating ways of get money.

The following are sure promises of God taking care of us,  we must not make something happen.


Philippians 4:19
And this same God who takes care of me will supply all your needs from his glorious riches, which have been given to us in Christ Jesus.
2 Peter 1:4
And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature and escape the world’s corruption caused by human desires.
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.
Matthew 11:28-29
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

Romans 8:37-39
No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.
And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Behold, the Lamb of God is coming, He is coming for a pure, holy, spotless, undefiled,righteous  and mature Bride. 
Prepare the way the Messiah is coming

WHOSE IMAGE ARE YOU?

Image
 An Image is a visual representation of an object. It is the likeness of something. When you look at yourself in the mirror, you will see an image of yourself. The image is the likeness of the object which is you. The image has nothing more/extra or less than what you have. This exactly means that the Image and the object are the same. Let's try and figure this out in the life of a Christian. I'll use myself as an example, before I got born again, I was living a different life. I was living a life of oppression. I was living in anger and bitterness. My life then wasn't pleasing to God. In this case, my life was an image/ clear indication of the kingdom I was operating in then. But when I got born again, my old man and his deeds were put off and I became a new man. With time, I was renewed in knowledge and I became an image of Him who brought me out of darkness into His marvellous Light (Jesus Christ). This is exactly what happens when one gets born again, the old self fades...

Another warning about the imminent Return of Jesus

  The Spirit took me to a place in the dream and told me to behold what was about to happen. And I could see dark huge clouds moving fast in the dark sky. Then I saw the moon and above it there was something so strange, it was another body like the moon. There   were strange signs in the sky and i saw very strange things I don’t know how to describe but they seemed to me like celestial bodies. Then I was taken in spirit to a different; and I was standing out in an open place and as I was standing there, then suddenly   there was a loud blast and in a flash, I saw the heavens opened in an instant and   I saw people snatched into heaven. The Lord opened my eyes and I saw them consumed into the brilliant bright pure   heavenly glory. Then I saw glorious white cloud cover the entry into heaven. And the remaining earth was overcome with darkness. Then I saw so many people in chaos and they were running to and fro screaming and some were exclaiming that indee...

Vision of a glorious golden crown

I saw a vision this past night, I found myself standing in the field.  The sky was clear despite some little clouds in the east. Somebody who seemed to me like a prophet of God was standing just a few steps away from where I was. and we were both looking up into the sky. Then this prophet told me to look beyond the clouds to see the gift that God have set forth for the faithful. I tried to look but I could not see anything, that's when the H oly Spirit opened my eyes and I could see a very beautiful magnificent golden crown with the Cross on the front face.  It was titling slowly so i could easily observe it from both side. It had a polished golden surface with beautiful golden droplets on the surface. I saw it tilt again as it fades from my sight. end. prepare for the coming of Christ Jesus on absolute holiness and righteousness.
