HIDDEN AGENDAS AND VERY HIDDEN AGENDAS

HIDDEN AGENDAS AND VERY HIDDEN AGENDAS

Many believers have agendas that they are deliberately hiding from other believers. These are plans they have that fit a personal goal. All personal agendas are sin. The combining of these to words constitute sin. There is no sin in something personal, nor is having an agenda wrong, as long as it is My agenda. When a person commits to following Me, they are surrendering all personal agendas. It is impossible to follow Me with a personal agenda. 

Personal agendas are very deceptive and always lead to the death of a vision. There are hidden agendas and then there are very hidden agendas. A very hidden agenda is when the person with a hidden agenda is totally unaware of it themselves. Because they are unaware of it they have an innocence and sincerity that leads innocent people astray, to serve their very hidden agenda. The very hidden agenda is very costly, because it goes undetected much longer than the hidden agenda. 

The discovery of the very hidden agenda, takes place in the secret place, where My Spirit will cause an unexplained lack of peace. The lack of My support and help, will cause body and soul to be fatigued, thus causing a crying out, and a searching in the Spirit for the source of the very hidden problem. The very hidden agenda can only be dealt with, by My Spirit, because everyone involved is oblivious to it. 

You cannot deal with something unless it is revealed because before revelation, to you it does not exist.    Peter had a very hidden agenda when he wanted to stay on the mountain of transfiguration with Moses, Elijah and I, and build three tabernacles. It looked very spiritual and to others and to himself. His very hidden agenda was to keep the supernatural for himself because it had more power than he had ever felt before. Unbeknown to him, he wanted to horde My presence at the expense of the people in the valley. He was no longer concerned about, the blind, the sick and the cripple, the very ones I came for. Peter had developed a very hidden agenda aI lead him down off the mountain to his calling.

Becoming spiritually greedy is a very common problem, that looks so spiritual that it can deceive even the mature believer. Whenever you feel an inner irritation, when a person of lesser spirituality shows up, thinking they will disturb your close encounter with Me, you are greedy. Be very cautious that in longing to have My heart, you also have My eyes, eyes that continually look on the harvest fields. 

Some people need deliverance, but instead remain in bondage and re-shape it to conform to a very hidden agenda.  Some may fear poverty and become over conservative, calling it good stewardship, which slowly leads to a life of hoarding, and then on to the extreme of becoming a pack rat. As the end of the age comes this may appear as one being well prepared for the end times, but it is a very hidden personal agenda. Refusing deliverance from fear, led to a very hidden personal agenda. A false Stewardship appearing spiritual even to the false steward. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.

Some have a very hidden lust for the opposite sex, so they develop a specialized ministry dealing with the opposite sex and soul power gives them a false anointing. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.

Some have very hidden insecurity, so they design a counseling ministry that makes people very dependent on them, giving them the feeling of importance. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.

Some have a very hidden dysfunctional spiritual life so they become super neat and organized on the outside, to cover the  inner turmoil. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.

Some have a very hidden need to prove themselves worthy, so the become extremely hard workers, appearing to have a superior dedication to Me, but they are troubled on the inside as Martha was. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.

Some have a very hidden desire to have a particular person as a mate and will transform into an angel of light until they have a marriage license. What seemed to be heaven suddenly turns to hell in weeks. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.

Some have a very hidden need for the applause of men, so they practice and develop a great performance ministry causing them to always ask, "how did I do".  Not with a concern for the hearer but with a need for the applause of men. They look great, sound great, but they have a very hidden agenda. 

In these days the very elect will be the only ones that will not enter into deception. The deception will be so great, not because of hidden agendas but because of very hidden agendas. Where the deceiver has no knowledge that he or she is deceiving. The very hidden agenda stems from a persons refusal to submit an area of their personal life to Me. Therefore it becomes a very hidden personal agenda. The very elect are those who know My voice, and obey it without question or hesitation. Only those, who daily spend time in the secret place, will know My voice and do as I say, and not be deceived.

2 Corinthians 4:2 (AMP)
We have renounced disgraceful ways (secret thoughts, feelings, desires and underhandedness, the methods and arts that men hide through shame); we refuse to deal craftily (to practice trickery and cunning) or to adulterate or handle dishonestly the Word of God, but we state the truth openly (clearly and candidly). And so we commend ourselves in the sight and presence of God to every man''s conscience.

Luke 9:28-37 (AMP)
Now about eight days after these teachings, Jesus took with Him Peter and John and James and went up on the mountain to pray. [29] And as He was praying, the appearance of His countenance became altered (different), and His raiment became dazzling white flashing with the brilliance of lightning. [30] And behold, two men were conversing with Him--Moses and Elijah, [31] Who appeared in splendor and majesty and brightness and were speaking of His exit from life, which He was about to bring to realization at Jerusalem. [32] Now Peter and those with him were weighed down with sleep, but when they fully awoke, they saw His glory (splendor and majesty and brightness) and the two men who stood with Him. [33] And it occurred as the men were parting from Him that Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is delightful and good that we are here; and let us construct three booths or huts--one for You and one for Moses and one for Elijah! not noticing or knowing what he was saying. [34] But even as he was saying this, a cloud came and began to overshadow them, and they were seized with alarm and struck with fear as they entered into the cloud. [35] Then there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is My Son, My Chosen One or My Beloved; listen to and yield to and obey Him! [36] And when the voice had died away, Jesus was found there alone. And they kept still, and told no one at that time any of these things that they had seen. [37] Now it occurred the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, that a great multitude met Him.

Luke 9:54-56 (AMP)
 [54] And when His disciples James and John observed this, they said, Lord, do You wish us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them, even as Elijah did ? II Kings 1:9-16. [55] But He turned and rebuked and severely censured them. He said, You do not know of what sort of spirit you are, [56] For the Son of Man did not come to destroy men''s lives, but to save them from the penalty of eternal death. And they journeyed on to another village.

Luke 19:41-42 (AMP)
And as He approached, He saw the city, and He wept audibly over it, [42] Exclaiming, Would that you had known personally, even at least in this your day, the things that make for peace (for freedom from all the distresses that are experienced as the result of sin and upon which your peace--your security, safety, prosperity, and happiness--depends)! But now they are hidden from your eyes.

Romans 2:15-16 (AMP)
They show that the essential requirements of the Law are written in their hearts and are operating there, with which their consciences (sense of right and wrong) also bear witness; and their moral decisions (their arguments of reason, their condemning or approving thoughts) will accuse or perhaps defend and excuse them [16] On that day when, as my Gospel proclaims, God by Jesus Christ will judge men in regard to the things which they conceal (their hidden thoughts).

Psalm 69:5-6 (AMP)
O God, You know my folly and blundering; my sins and my guilt are not hidden from You. [6] Let not those who wait and hope and look for You, O Lord of hosts, be put to shame through me; let not those who seek and inquire for and require You as their vital necessity be brought to confusion and dishonor through me, O God of Israel.

Proverbs 28:13-14 (KJV)
He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. [14] Happy is the man that feareth alway: but he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief.

Galatians 6:3-4 (AMP)
For if any person thinks himself to be somebody too important to condescend to shoulder another''s load when he is nobody of superiority except in his own estimation, he deceives and deludes and cheats himself. [4] But let every person carefully scrutinize and examine and test his own conduct and his own work. He can then have the personal satisfaction and joy of doing something commendable in itself alone without resorting to boastful comparison with his neighbor.

James 1:26-27 (AMP)
If anyone thinks himself to be religious (piously observant of the external duties of his faith) and does not bridle his tongue but deludes his own heart, this person''s religious service is worthless (futile, barren). [27] External religious worship religion as it is expressed in outward acts that is pure and unblemished in the sight of God the Father is this: to visit and help and care for the orphans and widows in their affliction and need, and to keep oneself unspotted and uncontaminated from the world.

Colossians 2:8 (AMP)
See to it that no one carries you off as spoil or makes you yourselves captive by his so-called philosophy and intellectualism and vain deceit (idle fancies and plain nonsense), following human tradition (men''s ideas of the material rather than the spiritual world), just crude notions following the rudimentary and elemental teachings of the universe and disregarding the teachings of Christ (the Messiah).

Matthew 15:13-14 (AMP)
He answered, Every plant which My heavenly Father has not planted will be torn up by the roots. [14] Let them alone and disregard them; they are blind guides and teachers. And if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a ditch.

2 Timothy 3:5-7 (AMP)
For although they hold a form of piety (true religion), they deny and reject and are strangers to the power of it their conduct belies the genuineness of their profession. Avoid all such people turn away from them. [6] For among them are those who worm their way into homes and captivate silly and weak-natured and spiritually dwarfed women, loaded down with the burden of their sins and easily swayed and led away by various evil desires and seductive impulses. [7] These weak women will listen to anybody who will teach them; they are forever inquiring and getting information, but are never able to arrive at a recognition and knowledge of the Truth.

John 10:2-5 (AMP)
But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. [3] The watchman opens the door for this man, and the sheep listen to his voice and heed it; and he calls his own sheep by name and brings (leads) them out. [4] When he has brought his own sheep outside, he walks on before them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice. [5] They will never on any account follow a stranger, but will run away from him because they do not know the voice of strangers or recognize their call.

Matthew 24:24 (AMP)
For false Christs and false prophets will arise, and they will show great signs and wonders so as to deceive and lead astray, if possible, even the elect (God''s chosen ones).

Romans 12:2 (KJV)
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Galatians 6:7-8 (KJV)
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. [8] For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.

John 4:35 (AMP)
Do you not say, It is still four months until harvest time comes? Look! I tell you, raise your eyes and observe the fields and see how they are already white for harvesting.
