But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. (Matthew 13:25, KJV)
The enemies of God are working tirelessly to populate hell while some brethren are fast asleep and some others are falling asleep, and we wonder why the church is gradually getting cold.
In the words of a friend, “the church is now more of a religious organization than a church”.
Jesus said in Luke 18:1 that “… men ought always to pray, and not to faint;”
A lot of brethren have slept a long time ago and are already snoring in their slumber!
Jesus said in Matthew 21:13
“And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.”
No way! Some have gone asleep a long time ago and are now using activities to compensate for true spirituality.
A senior friend once said that “there is power as of old, we are the ones not serving the Father as of old” no wonder we no longer see His Hand. Instead we live on past glory! But as they say “I get am before no be property”.
When the scripture says men ought to pray and not faint, it is not because our prayers does God any favour, neither do they change Him, but they are for our own good. So whether we pray or not God remains God, instead we are admonished to pray so that we do not become prey to the enemies.
The Yoruba’s have a proverb that says “ogun la’ye”. Meaning life is a battle field and I guarantee you that the enemies are never tired! They know their time is short and are doing everything within their capacity to take as many souls as they can to hell and when the church is suppose to be red hot, we have decided to take a nap and use religious activities to compensate for the place of prayers and we wonder why the church is competing with the world in sin and lewdity!
Even a fly can never be so mad as to perch on a hot pot, and since the church has gone asleep, every kind of dirt and ungodly doctrines have the liberty to come in, no questions asked.
Is it not funny that when you see a brethren living carelessly these days and you try to correct in love they tag you as being judgmental? All because we have become so comfortable living in sin and filth!
However, in the face of all these ills, we cannot Thank God enough because our Lord Jesus said in Matthew 15:13 that “… Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.”
Sin, filth and slumber may seem to have crept into the church today, but they will be uprooted by fire. If not I wonder where our hope lies for the church.
Psalms 18:45 says:
“The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid out of their close places.”
By the power in the Name that is above every other names, I decree that every stranger hiding in our churches and has caused it to fall asleep, and every seed that was not planted in our lives by the Lord of Hosts is uprooted by fire NOW, in the Mighty Name of Jesus!!!
Every alien entity that has polluted the church of God, causing it to draw into apostasy shall be afraid out of their closed places, in Jesus Name.
I pray for you, beloved, you will not sleep, you will not slumber and you will not fail God, in Jesus Precious Name!
You are blessed!!!
Prayer Point: Father, purge your church and cause Your revival fire to fall afresh on us, in Jesus Precious Name.
