If you are blaming the devil or Satan for everything you think is wrong in your life or the trials you experience is some sort of attack from the devil. You are sorely mistaken. Not only do you not know who the devil is, you don’t know who you are either. And if you don’t know these two things, then the chances of you knowing who your Father is in heaven is even less.
Trials must come. If you are a true disciple you will suffer persecution either by body or by tongue. Actually the fact that you are experiencing troubles or trials it is a sign that you are going through a ‘disciple experience.’ People like to be trained in all sorts of ‘titles’ but you never hear about people training to endure persecution. If anyone asked you to sign up for the ‘disciple experience’ and explained to you that you must forget about how the world is going to persecute you, would you truly be added to the list? Very few would do it. Instead the majority want to sign up for those ‘glory’ titles as some badge of holiness. Little do people know that in order to operate in any position concerning God, one must be a disciple of His first. Satan has disciples just like God has disciples. However Satan’s disciples don’t need any persecution, because they spend their time persecuting Christ on a daily basis.
People want to hear what the prophet has to say. False prophets have infiltrated the church on a global basis and have made a mockery out of Christ/the Word of God. So what that has done is place a mistrust on God’s truly sent ones. You have the false ones who have perverted the Word of God and then you have the true ones who truly carry the Word of God on the inside of them. Now that we are entering into this age however, there will be a dividing line that will be clearly seen. The Truth of The Word is hardly heard any more in the earth, for it has been choked out by those who teach lies and by those who choose to believe in these individuals. How do they choke the Word of God? First of all they don’t give to those who can actually help them. They expect instant miracles and instant worldly things. In other words they seek out a real prophet so that that real prophet will give them what a false prophet wants to give them. Not only is that belief system completely out of God’s order, but it is a mockery against the Holiness of God and whom He has sent.
False Prophet or Apostle Tricks Vs Holy Prophet or Apostle
False prophets will give you what they say is God’s word, distort it and then give a promise with that word they gave you. After they have given it to you, then they ask for an offering so that it can come true.
God’s prophets will not speak a word to you however until that offering has been placed in their hands. It is then that the words that God gives them is empowered to be fulfilled. It takes faith to trust in a real prophet, because it takes faith to believe God has sent them in the first place. To receive a prophet is to welcome that prophet by giving them what you are able to give, so that they can continue to give to you. You then in turn are giving them the ability to bless others through you.
Too often real prophets speak teaching about how to edify the Word of God in your life. However people will take their words, stealing them and repeating them in order to edify themselves. While real prophets and apostles are trying to make you a real disciple, people are intent of making followers for themselves instead of God. Disciples are disciplined ones. God disciplines those He loves. Discipline involves structure and order. Discipline involves trials and persecutions to strip away the world and how it functions in your life. That means God will reveal to you what you trust the most. This means He tests the mammon in your life. That’s why the first rule of discipline often begins with you giving away money into the hands of a true prophet or apostle. Many have became poor because they do not give.
Proverbs 11:24
24 One gives freely, yet grows all the richer;
another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want.
The Holy Bible: English Standard Version. (2016). (Pr 11:24). Wheaton: Standard Bible Society.
Discipleship is not attending some church class, it’s about living the Word of God and expecting to endure whatever God puts you through with gladness. Whichever prophet or apostle you follow, whether they are false or true will be validated by your giving to them. It is the motives of why you give to them in the first place that God closely looks at. He looks to see if you are a disciple of His or a disciple of Satan’s. If you have God’s Holy Spirit you will have no problem in giving to whom He has sent. In fact at Pentecost the ones who gave freely to the point of selling all their possessions, verified that they had the Holy Spirit.
So if you want to endure the ‘discipleship experience’ and you trust in God’s Holy Spirit, then it’s up to you to give according to what you are able. If you trust God, then trust whom He has sent to you. Follow the rules of order that God has put in place. And remember a true prophet will always speak according the Word of God and they don’t make promises that God is not going to keep. Discipline begins with your love of money and the giving of what you are able is a demonstration and verification that the Holy Spirit is with you.
