The Pastor's Pulpit
When I see the blood
Aug 22, 2012 - 11:48:37 PM

And Yahweh spoke to Moses and Aaron:
Ex.12: 13. And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.
 
And Moses spoke to the elders / leaders of Israel:
: 23.  For the LORD will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the LORD will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.
 
One of the major problems with today’s church leaders is that they’ve conformed to Religion verses that of Relationship with God / Yahweh, in order to hear from Him thereby being able to instruct and advise His people according to His word.  And as a result of this communication breach these leaders religiously come up with their own erroneous ideas and interpretations of what they believe God is saying.  Therefore think it not strange when you hear the Religious Leaders saying goofy stuff like “I don’t know who I’m talking to in here, but God told me to tell you”   but then again, this is the kind of foolishness that most religious minded, church folks like to hear; as they shout “Amen, I receive that Bishop”
 
Folks, can I tell you that it is still about the blood!
During the Old Testament time it was the  sacrificing of animals and the shedding of its blood for various sins; Today under this New Testament / Covenant it is and will forever be about the blood of Yahshua Messiah (a.k.a. Jesus he Christ) as the sacrifice for our sins “NLT: Heb.9: 22.  In fact, we can say that according to the law of Moses, nearly everything was purified by sprinkling with blood. Without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness of sins”
 
The church will begin to see and do the greater works spoken of by Yahshua Messiah (John.14:12) as soon as the church leaders can get the revelation that the success / victory of the church is not based upon their anointing; but rather upon the shed blood of the Messiah who hung and bled on the cross at Calvary.  Unfortunately, today’s religious leaders (Bishop, Apostle, Doctor, Prophet, Pastor, etc ;) are consistently giving the church a bad name as they merchandise they gospel from the premise of their anointing.  As the children of Israel was in captivity in Egypt, it was not Moses’ anointing, his education or how articulate of a person he was that Yahweh was looking for as the destroyer was passing over Egypt; but rather it was the Blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts.
 
It’s nauseating, extremely sickening to hear today’s religious leaders spew their witchcraft / work their  manipulation charm upon the naïve, gullible congregation / followers; about God’s deliverance and blessings upon their members lives due to the anointing that’s upon the ministry and the religious leader’s life. And to help validate and affirm this kind of wicked / devious teachings the religious leaders would even go to the extent of importing International Religious Superstars who would inflict further spiritual and financial wounds / damages upon the congregation.      
 
Our grand and great grand parents may not have known Hebrew and Greek as we in today’s church do, but they sure had a genuine hunger and thirst for the things of God.
The elders of the Old Church use to sing Spirit led / Spirit filled songs like “What can wash away my sins?  Nothing but the blood of Jesus”  “There’s power, power wondrous working power in the blood of the lamb” And songs like “The Old Rugged Cross”
This is certainly not the case with today’s church as the Praise and Worship Leaders have got to be able to emotionally moved / entertain the congregation just before the Mand-of-God drops his twisted, incomplete prosperity gospel / material blessing message.
As it is well noted / said (Everything rises and falls upon Leadership) the only logical question that one can ask is this “Whatever happened to good, genuine godly leadership?” Because if the truth be told; today’s church leaderships can be liken to the Hollywood celebrities trying to get their names in lights or the lead role in a movie.  The Religious Leaders are all competing for national and international attention. This competition consist of (1) Writing as many books as they can, (2) Who holds the largest conference, (3) Which area and the value of the house they live in, and (4) What type of vehicle they drive.
Whenever a genuine relationship / obedience to God and his word is absent; that which we’re seeing in today’s church and among its leadership becomes self explanatory. The true teachings of the blood of Yahshua Messiah, The cross at Calvary, Sanctification, Holiness and Obedience is conveniently set aside for the popular prosperity gospel.
 
In today’s church the Preacher and other leaders can live any kind of lifestyle, and the people will find / create reasons and opportunities to honor such a preacher or leader.  Notwithstanding that there’s forgiveness, healing, cleansing, deliverance, etc; in the blood, these persons seems to be at ease with their lifestyles.
 
Bishops, Apostles, Doctors, Prophets, Pastors, etc; This I say to you “It’s not about financial prosperity and your anointing; It is and will always be about the blood of Yahshua Messiah (a.k.a. Jesus the Christ)”
