My Story: Page 2 of 2

I wanted to share with you a little bit more about my first story, if you will bear a little with me in patience, of when God woke me up because God's been showing me that it's just like what we are seeing in the churches who have drifted away.

Sin became master over me (all over again) after I was Born-Again by God, because of the choices I was making which gave the enemy ground. I went right back into the flesh, being such a carnal Christian - I was a babe in Christ and very soon sin became the master over me.

I'm understanding that that is what's happening to the churches to even your church 12 years ago. Sin has become the master over them because the churches were still babes in Christ, they were not walking in The Spirit, and not really asking things of God ahead of time and so they (we - God's Body) got caught unaware of the enemy in our camp. Because other things had their (our) hearts, like what was still on my heart when God first woke me up. Jesus was my Lord, but He had only become one of my idols since the choices I began making in my life gave ground for the enemy to take charge. Just like the enemy has taken charge over the church, and yours of 12 years ago.

The sin, in the flesh and the demons began ruling and running off the shepherd's, overseerer's, deacon's and elders - they took dominion, before any one knew what happened. To our own sins, no ones else's.

So that in the end of these matters those places merely becomes a habitation of devil's according to Scripture. Spiritually, I too would have, if I would not have begun obeying the Voice of God when He gave me that prayer.

I soon understood by God showing me in my own life 16 years ago, that it was due to my own walk that gave ground to sin and becoming "the" master over me, all over again.

And God allowed this as well in my own life, lest we forget the Sov't. of God. He told me that He needed to show me the enemies that was still on my heart. That my first initial Salvation (for a lack of a better word, forgive me), did not remove the enemies that was still on my heart land.

Later God showed me Scripturally how all that is of His Ways of The Truth in His Word: As when Israel entered the Promise Land, God didn't remove them after He saved Israel from Egypt, He first taught Israel about warfare long before they entered the Promise Land. It's also what you said God led Israel into the wilderness, as well not only to teach them warfare according to Scripture, but to get Egypt (the drugs and love of drugs out of them - but with most of them God wasn't pleased and so He had many killed off by serpents and by walking around the mountain, Heb.4:3, etc.) out of them.

And still they would be having to remove enemies from off the Promised Land when they would enter in. We (Gentiles) truly have come into the same God of Israel by His own Grace and Mercy through Christ Jesus. Only now, we're not to destroy people from off the land that God gives all of Israel (we being grafted in by Faith through the gift of God in Christ Jesus) but He's directing our path's through our as our whole hearts are turned to Him. That is why all these churches have been taken over. Our wrestle is not man, it's spiritual wickedness in high places, in this instant, because we stopped being The Church; we fell asleep.

Just today, I'm seeing more that it was NOT 'man' who got one over us in taking over the churches, it was our own sin and choices that caused sin to be the master. And so sin truly began calling the shots and we lost our authority to rule with God all over again, just like the in the garden. And God allowed us to be driven away. But, if we learn our own lessons, I'm already seeing by The Spirit of God that The Bride will come together and the world will see the same compassion that was in Christ Jesus and when any wolves try to climb up some other way they will be spotted 10 thousand mile away.

But we're just going to keep on Trusting God in how it's done - He didn't give us Ministry gift for us to but be casted out - the world will always do that to us, but not in our own meeting places (church buildings so called - for we Are The Church, as you know as well).

13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. KJV
