Hebrews 11
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good report.
There is so much that I have to share with you
By faith were all things fulfilled because of obedience by them that trusted Him. By faith will I speak of all things foretold and spoken by God. By faith will I write of all things shown of God through dreams and visions. Though many will not hear and many others will not agree, this response is nothing new: For what has been will be again, there is nothing new under the sun. Still, these things I do unto GOD, that them that receive might be restored to Him. Yet, having foretold of all things, God knows that those who are called to His purpose, are sometimes, weakened, in the midst of their adversaries. No matter what you say nor how you say it, there will be opposition. But God, will cause those whose foot is on our backs, who say to souls, bow down that we may walk over you, to fall in the craftiness of their own devices. So then, if we are never weakened, there would be no need for our strength to be renewed. Thank You LORD that, in Your great compassion, You command the silence of isles and You have bequeathed to us the grace of Your awesome patience and understanding, to sustain us in times of weakness, that we may be RENEWED.
For only You are perfect in strength at all times.
And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like? 32 They are like unto children (behaving childishly not “childlike”) in the marketplace, and calling one to another, and saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept. (speaking revolt against those who choose Righteousness, refusing to play into the doctrines (schemes, tactics, diversions, distractions) of idols (envy, jealousy, power, greed, etc.) 33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil. 34 The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners! (No matter what a just man does, or how he does it, the devil will oppose it) 35 But wisdom is justified of all her children. (wisdom is not a matter of protocol, it’s a matter of obedience)
Those things were spoken of John and Jesus by the Pharisees (“church folk”); how much more will the say about those who are called? Why? Unfortunately, their hearts, had then and have now, become hardened amidst religion, position, protocol and ritual.
Matthew 13 15 For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them. 16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear. 17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and priests have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them. The last thing the devil wants is for God to increase His Kingdom, so he will infiltrate the church, using jealousy as a diversion, specifically among those of pulpit and position (according to scripture), in attempt to impede God’s plans. So, you must be careful (confirm it scriptureally) to do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach.
Dear Father in Heaven, please strengthen me by Your strength, that I may be RENEWED in my strength. Yet, Your timing is perfect, therefore, help me to wait on You, that I not fall to the spirit of Balaam. Those in the midst, roundabout, keep silence before me; and let the people renew their strength: let them come near; then let them speak: let us come near together to judgment. But they that wait upon the LORD shall RENEW their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. For Your Namesake. Amen.
For this I Thank You LORD
Commentary: These things are systemically, relative to both church and government. In either cases, whether it’s loyalty to foreign gods in the church or foreign governments in the world, is treason committed. Usually where there is power and position, there is mammon which can give way to corruption. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
