Money should be your servant not your God…

And Jesus entered 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 the doves; and He saith unto them, It is written, My house shall be called a house of prayer: but ye make it a den of robbers. And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them...Matthew 21:12-14.


Why did Jesus overthrow the money changers and those that bought and sold in the temple?

They were running a business on forgiveness…some people did not have access to the animals needed for the required sacrifices. These men would sell the needed provisions…the animals needed for forgiveness. The people were being extorted (squeezed) for money and forgiveness.


Jesus said…No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money...Matthew 6:24. But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs...1 Timothy 6:9-10.


Prayer

Father we know forgiveness is now free in the love of Jesus your only Son who died on the cross and was raised from the dead…please help us see our errors of sin and grant us repentance so we may be saved and reconciled to You the Creator…please meet our soul’s deepest needs in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

How to get out of a spiritual snare of satan…after being taken captive by him…

 

You have to resist the devil and surrender what ever you reached for to Jesus and accept Jesus will not your own or the devil you agreed with to allow the snare possible. If you want Jesus will enough then the devil will eject itself…Be subject therefore unto God; but resist the devil, and he will flee from you...James 4:7. After you do renounce satan and whatever agreement you made to allow the devil presence in your life then you must remain careful not to agree to the same deal… The unclean spirit when he is gone out of the man, passeth through waterless places, seeking rest, and finding none, he saith, I will turn back unto my house whence I came out. And when he is come, he findeth it swept and garnished. Then goeth he, and taketh to him seven other spirits more evil than himself; and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man becometh worse than the first...Luke 11:24-26.

 

The devil you agreed will come back and seek your soul again through deals or favors. He will not come alone but with seven other spirits trying to get you back in a league or deal with the devil. You must remain vigilant and not surrender or cater to the deal and his offers. You have to do this. Someone else cannot do it for you…pray for repentance to be granted and for freedom from the devil and the snare you fell headlong into… And the Lord's servant must not strive, but be gentle towards all, apt to teach, forbearing, in meekness correcting them that oppose themselves; if peradventure God may give them repentance unto the knowledge of the truth, and they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him unto his will...2 Timothy 2:24-26.

 

Prayer

Father we renounce any agreement we have made willing or unwilling known or unknown with anyone (soul) other than your Son Jesus…please reveal the truth so we can get out of the snare of the devil because we are now taken captive by him…we want to serve You and Your Only Son Jesus and no other please meet our souls’ deepest needs for freedom from satan and his snares…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

You ever caused God to rejoice…


See that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, that in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father who is in heaven. For the Son of man came to save that which was lost. How think ye? if any man have a hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, does he not leave the ninety and nine, and go unto the mountains, and seek that which goes astray? And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety and nine which have not gone astray. Even so it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish...Matthew 18:10-14. My brethren, if any among you err from the truth, and one convert him; let him know, that he who converts a sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall cover a multitude of sins...James 5:19-20. And the Lord's servant must not strive, but be gentle towards all, apt to teach, forbearing, in meekness correcting them that oppose themselves; if peradventure God may give them repentance unto the knowledge of the truth, and they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him unto his will...2 Timothy 2:24-26.

 

You ever seen a loved one teach a false doctrine after knowing the truth…or see them fall into following a false teacher…or false doctrine…yes or no?


Some say it is just a white lie…no it is false witness…some say it he was not using it properly so I took it…no it is stealing…I wish he did not exist…no it is hate and the beginning of murder…some say it is idolatry…no Jesus said to bear my cross it is a reminder around my neck…some say I want it and got it myself…no it is coveting…some say I do not have to take care of my parents…no it is not honoring your father and mother…some say it is just pictures not pornography…Jesus said it is adultery in your heart…some say God will accept any song and form of worship…no we must keep ourselves Holy and worship in Spirit and the Truth…some say O my God…no it is using His name wrong unless you are praying or teaching about God. Some say there are many ways to God…no you shall have no other God than our Creator and His Only Fathered human Son born of a virgin…so that no human could say they are greater. Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by Me (the Truth)...John 14:6.

 

Prayer

Father please grant us and our loved ones repentance and mercy from Your throne and heart…please meet our soul’s deepest needs and heal our flesh and soul from the consequences of our past sins…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
