By Evang Iyke oriaku
Any man of God that promised to help you grow your church from 50 members to 1000 members in 6months is a messenger sent from Babylon to make you bow to Baal...
He is majority leader in the ocean...
Forget his ecclesiastical title...
When you see what he turned into inside the river, you will know that He wants to initiate you into secret society...
Jesus does not 'blow' a man...
He 'grows' the man ...
It is dangerous to follow a man that has ran out of patience with God ...
He is already inside hellfire...
And he doesn't want to go alone...
That is why he keep sending you pictures of the class of hotels he lodges and the kind of cars in his compound...
He hates you, that is why he wants to entice you...
Why don't he send you pictures of those that God broke down in his church and they were in genuine tears for reconciliation?
Why won't he show you how many days he and his team are praying and fasting?...
Why are they advertising vain things to you? ...
If it's God that gave you what you have, why don't you advertise the source?...
I am suspecting any man that shows me success that can't drive me close to Jesus...
Don't show me your splendor...
Show me your knees...
Show me your pains and sacrifices...I don't just want to make money....
I want to make heaven...
Why is it only the stories of the Governors and Senators that calls you on phone that you will be telling me? ...
What are you targeting?...
If it is God that gave you your wealth, why not tell me to look for that God?...Woman of God, don't tell me that you can't see the kind of people your husband has joined recently...
Can't you see that his messages have changed since he started hanging out with those men?...
Don't tell me you are not seeing the handwriting on the wall?...
Don't wait till they lure your husband into using you or your children for sacrifice to grow the ministry before you can raise an alarm? ...
Satan is not afraid of a rich man preacher...He is not afraid of a famous prophet...But he is afraid of a righteous man that is waiting on the Lord for his time to come...
Don't pray to be like a man Satan is not afraid of... He worths nothing of value in the eye of eternity ...
Sir, Drink garri...
For now, trek if there is no choice... You must not be the talk of the town...You must not pastor a mega church for now...
Grow...
Don't blow...
When you have ten thousand in your account and start seeing dreams of lodging in a hotel of thirty thousand a night, wake up from that sleep and look for a fellow man of God for deliverance...
That is how it starts...
When you keep dreaming where you are flying first class when you cannot afford economy, it means Satan is about to bring someone that will encourage you to sell your soul to hell...
That voice telling you that it is time for you to start using 2 Hummer Jeeps in your convoy when you cannot fuel the weak 1993 version Honda someone dashed you is not from God...
It is not a laughing matter....
Look for men and women who are not ashamed to be mocked...
Make friends with men of God who are not after crowd and are not ashamed of empty seats in their churches ...You are not the only one they are mocking...
When you get close you will understand that some of us have our stories to tell...
They see us trek, they say we are suffering...That God did not call us...They see us traveling by road some times, instead of flight and they say we don't carry grace...That we don't have evidence...
We enter town and lodge in 5k hotel that we can afford, they say that we are suffering...
But they don't understand that none of these things moves us...
Someone should tell them that we have seen what they bowed to, but we refused to bow...
Tell them that we are not ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ, even if we have to preach it on empty stomach...
Tell them that we are not in any competition with anyone, anywhere...
Nobody promised us money before we repented...
When we entered ministry, we signed to celebrate anything we see ...This is not the end of our journey...
We will not trek forever...
We will not fly economy forever...
We will not lack money to print fliers and posters forever...
All the days of our appointed time' we are going to wait, until our change comes...
But Even if the change refuses to come, we have already made a vow never to bow our knees to bow...
If there is any young man of God anywhere God has helped, I am sure that that same God will soon come for us...
Satan is waiting for us in hell...
He wants to see all those men that shouted fire at him, to roast in hell, so that he will mock us...
How can I drive a car supplied by a man I know that is waiting for me in hell?...
Why will I go to a native doctor to give me crowd to pastor for Satan?...
How will I forget that there is coming a day of reckoning?...
Man of God, The time you will use to do rituals and sacrifices, to control crowd, sir, if you use it to look for God, He will show up...
Stop picking the call of any man that is coming to take you to a place where God's name will be disgrace, just to grow in ministry...
Don't listen to them...
We don't just want our churches to grow...We too wants to grow.....It is an error for us to to see our churches growing numerically while we are dying spiritually...
20,000 capacity church is not the goal. Eternity with Jesus is the goal ...We are proud of you sir...Yes, you lack money to renew your rent and pay school fees sometimes...But we are still proud of you...
I write this with tears in my eyes...You don't need the encouragement of a native doctor parading as pastor...
He has nothing to give you ...
Even in your lack and want, he is the one that needs you more ...
I wish you will understand the gain called contentment...
I wish you will understand the virtue called Patience which they have lost years ago...
Can I beg you not to cast away your confidence which has great recompense?...
Can I ask you to go back to that kneeling position you used to have before Satan sent his agents that came to make you feel God is not good to you?..
Man of God, you might be better than some of us...You are not the only one they have betrayed and your supporters withdrew from... Some of us might have more painful stories than you...
I want to beg you to open yourself once again to that God that has kept us till today...
Trust me, He will show up ...
Soon, people will start running away from preachers who brag with vain things...
It will not be long men and women will start looking for those that have learnt how to abase and and how to abound...
This generation will soon run to God to show them who their real prophets are...When God directs them to you, may it not be that you have joined them to bow to Baal...
May that God that has kept you till now keep you till forever ...
We will not pastor crowd and go to hell...We will not raise the dead and make hell...
On the last day, none of us shall be found wanting...
In Jesus Name
Let us pray!
