Man Of God From Judah – Part 1

In this generation, there is so much of strange fire and incense burning on God’s altars. Because of this strange fire, people are living strange lives. There is no fruit of God’s Holiness that leads to Holy living. A person in sin continue live in sin in spite of coming to the church regularly. Repentance, reverence and fear of God are missing in the churches. In spite of many miracles, there is no fear of God or genuine repentance. This strange fire is burning in so many altars or churches in the land. People are believing that this strange fire is the true fire of God. This false or strange or counterfeit fire has become true fire because believers have not seen or experienced the true fire of God. There is so much deception because of this strange fire.

Worldliness and worldly ways of doing things have infiltrated and crept so deeply into the church. Holiness and repentance are missing in the church. If David Livingstone would have lived in this generation, he would have said that “The smoke of thousand churches on strange fire irritates or bothers God”.

The land has become like it was in the days of King Jeroboam (1 Kings 13). King Jeroboam was called of God (God made him the king), and in order to prevent Israelites from going to Jerusalem, he built false idols and offered sacrifices to these idols on God's altars. He introduced a deception where he was doing things in God’s pattern on God’s altars but offering incense and sacrifices to false idols. He was doing things in God’s pattern but was not offering incense and sacrifices to Jehovah God. What a great mistake he made. It was a business idea that led to deception. He introduced a deception, and made people believe that they are worshipping Jehovah God when they were actually worshipping false idols. He did in God’s pattern, but not unto Jehovah God.

These days, many churches are doing the same. They are following in God’s pattern but they are not doing (or offering sacrifices) to Jehovah God. They are doing for their selfish motives, personal agendas and worldly agendas.

In this season, God is raising and sending many men of God, armed with a word from Him and raw power and authority(to back it up), to expose the deception of all Jeroboam’s and cleanse God's altars. They will create a ripple or shaking on God's altars, extinguish the strange fire, and start cleansing the land. They will challenge the established religious institutions, and doctrines with God's word and expose their deception. They will not carry physical weapons of war, but the word of God will serve as their most powerful weapon.

Pastors, prophets, and believers will be shaken by the word and the signs that follow. People will be scared to do something wrong or unholy in God's house, pulpit and altar. Pastors and prophets will be shaken to the core, resulting in a dramatic change in their lives. All those who have taken God's house for granted and lived or preached as they want will be shaken.

King Jeroboam, his army, and his priests were powerless before this man of God (God's word). The Man of God demonstrated God's word as the most powerful entity in the entire land.

A fear of God will come upon God's people and his house, restoring the reverence and honour due to God's name. They will expose strange doctrines, fire, and, most importantly, show how the genuine fire of God looks. They will show glimpses of God's genuine fire, as well as show His raw power and authority. Once again, they will bring back the authority and reverence of God, and, most importantly, bring back fear of God among the people of this land. They will restore the power of God's word with true fire and authority, creating genuine repentance and fear of God in the lives of people. Preaching and reverence for the pulpit of God will be restored.
