JEREMIAH 23: 1,2,

IN OUR FACILITIES.IN THESE GOD GIVEN PASSAGES JEREMIAH MAKES

HIS PETITION TO THE STIFFED NECKED LEADERS OF YESTERDAY. I MAKE THAT SAME PETITION TODAY. SIMPLY BECAUSE THERE ARE LEADERS WHO ARE REFUSING TO FEED THEIR FLOCK, REFUSING TO DEMONSTRATE THE LOVE THAT JESUS DEMONSTRATED, REFUSING TO KEEP THE SPIRITUAL HARMONYTHAT JESUS KEPT, BUT ARE

SCATTERING THE FLOCK ABROAD.

3 POINTS

(1) SERVICE TERMINATED

(2) RESTORATION

(3) REJUVINATED

I SERVICE TERMINATED

WOE TO THE SHEPARDS WHO DESTROY AND SCATTER THE SHEEP OF MY PASTURE!” SAYS THE LORD.

THEREFORE THUS SAYS THE LORD GOD OF ISREAL AGAINST THE

SHEPARDS WHO FEED MY PEOPLE: YOU HAVE SCATTERED MY

FLOCK, DRIVEN THEM AWAY, AND NOT ATTENDED TO THEM,

BEHOLD, I WILL ATTEND TO YOU FOR THE EVIL OF YOUR DOINGS,” SAYS THE LORD.

WE HAVE TODAY PASTORS PROCLAIMING TO BE LEADERS WHO ARE SCATTERING GOD’S PEOPLE, AND ARE PLAYING THE BLAME GAME, MAKING THE PEOPLE BELIEVE IT’S THEIR FAULT, IN MY OPINION, MANY HAVE BEEN BEWITCHED BY SUCH JESTURES, AND BELIEVE THAT THEY ARE AT FAULT. IT IS SIMPLY NOT SO, GOD LEFT - YOU - THE CONGRGATION UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF HIS ANNOINTED ONE, MANY HOWEVER HAVE MISSED THEIR TRUE CALLING AND HAVE STEPPED IN AN OFFICE BASED ON THEIR OWN DESIRES, I WILL NOT GO AS FAR AS TO DOUBT THEIR CALLING ONLY GOD CAN SEARCH THE HEART OR TEST THE MIND.

THIS VERY DAY AS I SPEAK THEIR IS ONE IN OUR MIDST; WE ARE WITNESSING THE PROPHETIC WORDS OF JEREMIAH COME TO PASS.

AND MANY OF OUR BELIEVING FRIENDS ARE VEXED BEHIND THE

WORKS OF THE LEADERSHIP THEY HAVE CHOSEN, NOTE THIS;

THE LEADERSHIP THEY HAVE CHOSEN, NOT THE LEADERSHIP THAT GOD HAS ASSIGNED THEM.

MANY OF OUR CHURCHES HAVE BEEN TORN APART BY THE EVIL OF THE LEADERSHIP, BUT, I DON’T BLAME THE LEADER, I BLAME THE PEOPLE FOR TOLLERATING THIS EVIL.

ALBERT EINSTEIN WROTE:

THE WORLD IS IN GREATER PERIL FROM THOSE WHO TOLLERATE

EVIL THAN THOSE WHO ACTIVELY COMMIT IT.

GREGORY THOMAS SAYS:

THE CHURCH IS IN GREATER PERIL FROM THOSE WHO TOLLERATE EVIL THAN THOSE WHO ACTIVELY COMMIT IT.

WOE BE UNTO THE PASTORS THAT DESTROY AND SCATTER THE

SHEEP OF MY PASTURE! SAITH THE LORD

II RESTORATION

MAY BE THE COMMUNITY HAS FROUND AT THE MENTION OF YOUR

CHURCH NAME:

MAYBE YOU HAVE BEEN LABLED AS THE CHURCH OF CONFUSION:

MAYBE YOU USED TO BE THE THRIVING CHURCH OF THE

COMMUNITY:

BUT GOD HA SAID IN HIS WORD:

FOR I WILL RESTORE HEALTH TO YOU, AND HEAL YOUR WOUNDS,

SAYS THE LORD, BECAUSE THEY CALLED YOU AN OUTCAST SAYING THIS IS: ZION - MOUNT OLIVE - NO ONE SEEKS HER

HE WILL SEND UNTO YOU IN HIS TIME A VESSEL:

A VESSEL WHO WILL NOT:

(1) DIVIDE GOD’S HOUSE

(2) SCATTER GOD’S PEOPLE

(3) HAVE HIS OWN AGENDA

BUT ONE THAT WOULD TAKE CARE OF GOD’S PEOPLE GOD’S WAY

ONE THAT WOULD:

(1) GIVE HIS LIFE SERVING OTHERS

(2) LOVE GOD’S PEOPLE - GOD’S WAY

(3) WALK RIGHT ON THE WALKWAY OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

(4) FEED THE HUNGRY

(5) CLOTHE THOSE WHO ARE NECKED

(6) VISIT THE SICK AND PRISON BOUND

(7) LOVE AND SERVE IN HUMANITY

III REJUVENATION

CHRISTIAN FRIENDS, WE HAVE TRYING TIMES AHEAD OF US, WE

HAVE YET TO WEATHER THE STORM,

THE WIND HAS NOT BEGAN TO BLOW,

THE RAIN HAS NOT BEGAN TO POUR

THE THUNDER HAS NOT BEGAN TO THUNDER

BUT WHEN IT DOES GOD HAS SAID:

LET YOUR CONVERSATION BE CONTENT WITHOUT COVETOUSNESS;

AND BE CONTENT WITH SUCH THINGS AS YE HAVE: FOR HE HATH

SAID, I WILL NEVER LEAVE THEE, NOR FORSAKE THEE.

GOD IS GOING TO BRING INTO THIS FAMILY THE YOUTHFULNESS TO DRAW AND NOT SCATTER, GOD IS GOING TO DO HIS THING HIS WAY,

IF WE ALLOW HIM.

THERE IS THIS OLD QUOTE:

“ LET GO AND LET GOD.”

LET GO OF YESTERDAY

AND LET GOD FIX TODAY

LET GO OF SIN

LET GOD RENEW YOU TO THE LIKENS OF HIMSELF

LET GO OF THIS LEADERSHIP

AND LET GOD SHOW YOU THE WAY

GOD HAS PETITIONED TO US,THAT:

BE NOT WISE IN THINE OWN EYES: FEAR THE LORD, AND DEPART FROM EVIL.

GOD HAS DECLARED UNTO ME:

THUS SAYS THE LORD GOD: BEHOLD I AM AGAINST THE SHEPARDS,

AND I WILL REQUIRE MY FLOCK AT THEIR HAND; I WILL CAUSE THEM TO CEASE FEEDING THE SHEEP, AND THE SHEPARDS SHALL FEED THEMSELVES NO MORE; FOR I WILL DELIVER MY FLOCK FROM THEIR MOUTHS, THAT THEY MAY NO LONGER BE FOOD FOR THEM.
