YOU CAN NOT SPEAK LIFE INTO A DEAD CHURCH
You can talk all you want, but until you carry My presence into a death situation there will be no resurrection life. Some church bodies are so dead and dry with the traditions of man and religion, that a spiritual graveyard fills the building. Boring, useless, routine, drives away the young, and the old just wait to die. "In My presence is fulness of joy; at My right hand there are pleasures for evermore." Psalm 16:11 (KJV) Many people who are steeped in religious tradition, despise My presence and these "people revile (scoff and sneer at) anything they do not happen to be acquainted with and do not understand; and whatever they do understand with the natural mind, that which they know by mere instinct, are like irrational beasts-- they corrupt themselves and are destroyed (perish)." Jude 1:10 (AMP)
Those who are intimate with Me, host My presence all the time, and the spiritually hungry person loves to be around them because in My presence, all fear is gone. For this person, true worship is the constant order of the day. Life can change a church, or a church can destroy life, it all depends on what they do with My presence. When they say, "We have a program to follow, we don't want that Holy Ghost stuff here" then a spiritual cemetery is established, where the twice dead are buried.
You will know they are accepting My presence and being resurrected when they say, let's put away the programs and the old song books because, "He hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many people will see this change, and shall really trust in the Me . [4] Blessed is that man that maketh the Lord his trust, and respecteth not the proud, and those who turn aside to religious lies, traditions and programs." Psalm 40:3-4 (KJV)
If the church leaders are not intimate with Me and filled with My Spirit, they are only grounds keepers in a religious cemetery! If you hunger for life and they refuse to become intimate with Me, "Follow Me, and leave the dead in sin and religious tradition, to bury their own dead." Matthew 8:22 (AMP) Those who are intimate with Me, bring life with them wherever they go, whether it's to school, the market, the pizza shop, the office, or a dying church. It's up to those you meet to choose or reject life. The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows)." John 10:10 (AMP)
