Please bear with me, I realize that this is a lot, and certainly many priests and people of God have voiced their opinions. Yet, if it were not for that, I most probably would not have inquired the Lord in those things which He had shown me and spoken to me. For His Word commands me to shout, from the rooftops, those things which are whispered in my ear. Still, though, or perhaps more accurately, because Matthew 10 has been absolutely true in my walk, for years, because so many of the visions which God had given me had come to pass, I had issue with Ezekiel 14:1-11; for I know in my heart that I serve no other master. BUT GOD, in His faithfulness, just as He promises to do through the Holy Spirit, led me into all TRUTH through 1 Kings 22:1-28. I could not understand why I had come, and continue to come under such venomous backlash from the "kings" (i.e. priests/leaders) of this age. For sure many of them have spoken openly, and even rebuked me for speaking, as they deemed it "NEGATIVITY." I am continually rejected and even in the likeness of Your angels whose dead bodies were left unburied, in the streets, was I thrown out into the streets, and left as garbage, post chastening. Some even create and wear T-shirts about being positive, accusing me of being offended by their so-called positivity, all while disregarding God's statutes, and stubbornly refusing to acknowledge, in TRUTH, what they have seen and heard. Others, because of positive, favorable, pretty messages, make large donations to those whom have been led astray, in the church, by peace speaking, false prophets, based solely on their message of peace. I have no issue with positivity nor peace; but, there is a time and season for everything. We must speak what God says to speak, when He says to speak it.
Matthew 10
1. And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease. 2. Now the names of the twelve apostles are these; The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; 3. Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus; 4. Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him. 5. These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: 6. But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 7. And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. 8. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. 9. Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses, 10. Nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat. 11. And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, inquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence. 12. And when ye come into an house, salute it. 13. And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you. 14. And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet. 15. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city. 16. Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. 17. But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues; 18. And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles. 19. But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak. 20. For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you. 21. And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them to be put to death. 22. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved. 23. But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come. 24. The disciple is not above his master, nor the servant above his lord. 25. It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his household? 26. Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known. 27. What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops. 28. And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. 29. Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. 30. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31. Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows. 32. Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven. 33. But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven. 34. Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. 35. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. 36. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. 37. He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38. And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me. 39. He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it. 40. He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me. 41. He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward. 42. And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.
Dear Heavenly Father, I give thanks for Your Word, Your will, and Your way. Thank You for Your Son Jesus whom You ordained to choose, anoint, and send forth the disciples, of all generations, unto greater works. Lord I thank You for providing unto Your disciples another, in the person of the Holy Ghost, who not only comforts, but likewise guides us into all truth, so that no matter who disputes our calling, nor what weapon is formed against us, none shall prevail. In the reverent and victorious name of Jesus, I thank Thee. Amen.
