Maybe I am going against the grain in this one but why do well known prophets feel they have the right to put a plea out there to pray for them are they an exclusive group amongst themselves and who they choose to list under their category. When viewing this recent video something inside me wanted to scream how arrogant that you all feel so darn important and the rest of us not under your exclusive category don't need prayer or fasting. You know, there are prophets & spiritual leaders out there that are following the will of God in their lives and hear and see and sense the presence of God but may not be on some sort of grand platform and they don't count, really!
It was not an inclusive list shared, but it made absolutely no sense that they are pleading their case for prayer and fasting for prophets and spiritual leaders that died younger then should have died. I get the point a little better if more recent names were shared and not including people that died years ago. What in the heck is that all about. How would prayers and fasting now in 2023 help them that went to be with the Lord years prior. Bring this into the now realm and quit harping on the past. The past is done and dealt with and look to the future and do not stay stuck in the past ok.
It to me gave an appearance of arrogance in one sense this recent video. Like they are important because of their stature in the church/ministry world. So, why a plea now to the nations when I would think each minister has a group of dedicated intercessors praying for them a lot? Maybe they should exam just who is on their intercessor teams and possibly weed out those who are not being effective. You know, praying prayers of their own with a possible ulterior motive on their part and not with a pure heart towards the minister they are interceding for. Just because someone gives the appearance of being holy and prayerful does not always mean they are when you take a closer look at them. Where is your discernment quite honestly or why is it not picking up on this sort of thing amongst your very own people? Even the very elect in the days in which we live in will be deceived. Please I ask you to do a ministry check within each of your very own ministries. You know, people giving the appearance of being a team player just may be playing your kind heart and sympathetic nature to weasel their own way in to sway you to fulfill their very own agenda under the guise of being a holy, prayerful person. Reaching out to the world just opened up a door further for the enemy to infiltrate your request. Are you naive enough to think that only Christians view your ministry videos? Take an accounting of the times you may have placed a plea out there for prayer for a certain situation only to find it did not turn out like it was intended to and went the opposite direction. Use wisdom, honestly, use wisdom ok.
With viewing the recent video asking for prayer of the elite segment I can honestly see why God will not allow familiar faces and names to run His revival. He chooses the nameless and faceless, so no one gets or tries to take the credit for His moves of God. I am sorry I should even have to be writing on this subject today considering these are seasoned spiritual leaders this is addressing. Grow up and not only think of your inner circle but expand it to all that are under Holy Spirits anointing and may be hiding out in that cave so to speak under His shelter so as to still do His bidding without taint. Just saying. Do not think of yourself so highly because it just may be a door open for pride to creep in and then comes the tumble. Walk carefully and do not think you are above God's correction. Even the best of the best seems to fall on occasion. I was a few years ago at a church and this well-known spiritual leader for some reason began to confess his problem with pornography before us. I did not go to that church that night to hear his confessions I really did not as a woman want to hear that confession and maybe wisdom would have been better used if he chose to confess to the elders that night and not innocent people in attendance. To this day this man is still celebrated and elevated.
Why does the elect in the church world pick and choose who they think have been restored and not others to be? That appears to be double minded, this one was restored but close their minds to another one being restored. God is watching all of this, He really is.
This morning Holy Spirit took me into Job 32, and this is what I underlined and then wrote in the margin of my bible on7/12/2014. This is Elihu's discourse to Job. "I thought Age should speak, and experience should teach wisdom. However, there is in humans a Spirit, the breath of the Almighty, that gives them understanding. People do not become wise merely because they live long. They don't understand what justice is merely because they're old." I then went on to see Job 32:13 "Let God, not humans, defeat him. Then the final section underlined was Job 32: 17-20 " I'll tell you what I know. I'm full of words. The Spirit within me forces me to speak, my belly is like a bottle of wine that has not been opened, like new wineskins that are ready to burst. I must speak to get relief."
I then wrote in the margin this, "This is what happens when God puts a word inside of you to speak forth - there is no rest until the word from God is released & spoken forth."
