LET THE PIGS WORK FOR YOU!

LET THE PIGS WORK FOR YOU!

Pride is the foundation sin on which every other sin rests. It is the cornerstone of the government of satan. When you understand this, you will begin to see the bigger picture of the battle between the kingdoms of light and darkness. You will see why, My "Father sets Himself against the proud and haughty, but gives grace continually to the lowly (those who are humble enough to receive it)." James 4:6 (AMP)

Pride is the "seat of the lawless one, the antichrist who through the activity and working of satan, will be attended by great power and with all sorts of pretended miracles and signs and delusive marvels--all of them lying wonders-- [10] And by unlimited seduction to evil and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing (going to perdition) because they did not welcome the Truth but refused to love it that they might be saved. [11] Therefore My Father, using their own spiritual pride, sends upon them a misleading influence, the working of error and a strong delusion to make them believe what is false, [12] He does this in order that all may be judged and condemned who were to proud to believe in, and refused to adhere to, trust in, and rely on the Truth, but instead took pleasure in unrighteousness." 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 (AMP)

Pride must be broken into pieces or no one would ever be saved. Spiritual pride is by far the most dangerous and almost impossible to smash, There are many types of pride, but nothing as bad as spiritual pride! Stephen tried to break it, by hitting it head on, this short sermon got him killed, listen to what he said: "You stubborn and stiff-necked people, still heathen and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you are always actively resisting the Holy Spirit. As your forefathers were, so you are and so you do! [52] Which of the prophets did your forefathers not persecute? And they slew those who proclaimed beforehand the coming of the Righteous One, Whom you now have betrayed and murdered-- [53] You who received the Law as it was ordained and set in order and delivered by angels, and yet you did not obey it!" Acts 7:51-53 (AMP) Before he could give an altar call, they pounded him to death with rocks. I was so proud of him, i stood up to welcome him home.

Now for the pigs; pigs represent the bottom of the barrel, the end of the rope, a place where you have reached the end of your self. The pig pen is a place where you stink in everybody's eyes, including your own. A place where all pride is gone, called rock bottom. A place where hell is much closer than heaven because all hope is gone. It's a place where you agree with all the dirty names people call you and you don't blame them. It's a place where all addicts and criminals reside, a place where the prodigal "came to himself, and he said, How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! [18] I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, [19] And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants." Luke 15:17-19 (KJV) The pig pen is a place where everyone silently asks, How could God ever forgive me?

But here's the good news, this is where I do My greatest work! You see every pigpen has a gate, or a door if you will and "I stand at that door and knock; if anyone inside hears and listens to and heeds My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will eat with him, and he will eat with Me." Revelation 3:20 (AMP) Not with the pigs in the pen but in the banquet hall, at My table, the Kings table. Listen Christian leader, If you want to be a real soul winner, go to the places where pride has been smashed, don't waste your time with people I resist, how foolish is that? "Go out into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind. [23] Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that My house may be filled." Luke 14:21,23 (KJV)

Bottom line: Let the pigs work for you, like I
