‘Lions’ will definitely be uncomfortable in this ministry as they will not be ready to take instructions that will transform them. They cannot stand the bride’s message. No lion will be in the bride of Christ. Jesus is not the shepherd of lions, he is the shepherd of the sheep. He said my sheep hear my voice and they follow me (John 10:27). The book of life is the book of the Lamb and not the book of lions.
This error is so fundamental, so deep and very dangerous that we are now living with the consequences. Error has a way of going viral and it contaminates in order to consume because it is evil spirits that give it force. It is dangerously evil. The lion and eagle message will allow you to build massive cathedrals. It will allow you to amass wealth, embark on gigantic projects for which you will receive accolades from men. But at the end when it is tried and tested, it will be revealed as shallow, hollow and empty; in other words, it is wood, hay and stubble, without substance and reduced to what it truly is. But because it appeals to the carnal unregenerate mind (that is what a lot of people desire to hear), all manner of people flock there.
Wherever such messages are preached, sin is hardly preached against. Grace has been twisted to mean a license to live anyhow. The drive is in the raising of members and not disciples. The drive is in the raising of workers and not worshippers. The drive is in the giving in order to get. That is what people want. Sow a seed. So, they sow!
Pray –
- Ask God to help you. Ask him to have mercy on you. Have mercy upon us, O God, according to your loving kindness, according unto the multitude of your tender mercy, blot out all our transgressions. Wash us thoroughly from every sin. Purge us. Make us holy. Make us pure. Make us acceptable in your sight. Be not far from us. Attend to the voice of our supplication.
- Be thou our strong habitation whereunto we may continually resort. Father, you know our down-sittings, you know our uprising. You know where we are coming from, you know where we are, you know where we are supposed to be, in your mercy, O God, forgive. In your mercy, purge. In your mercy, purify. Look into our lives; anything you find in us that makes you sad, please wipe it away in the name of Jesus.
- Hear our cry and attend to the voice of our supplication. Do not allow sin to prevail in any area of our lives.
- O God, anything that will make our prayers not to be answered, do not allow it. Intervene and cleanse us. Make us holy. Make us pure. Make us acceptable in your sight that our prayers be not hindered; that our sacrifices be not the sacrifice of the wicked in the name of Jesus.
- In your mercy, O God, blot out our transgressions as individuals, as families, and as a fellowship. Have mercy on us according to your love and your kindness, according unto the multitude of your tender mercy. Blot out all our transgressions and purge us of every sin.
- Do not allow us to regard any iniquity in our heart so that our prayers be not hindered in the name of Jesus.
- In any way that we have turned away from your revealed will, have mercy on us. Cleanse us from secret faults. Purge us. Purity our soul.
- Hear us when we call. Attend to the voice of our supplication. Be thou our strong habitation whereunto we may continually resort.
- Have mercy on us, O God, who makes great things happen. Look into our records. Let the words of our mouth and the meditations of our heart be acceptable in your sight.
- Look into our spiritual record from the day we were conceived in our mothers’ wombs till date. We want to walk hand in hand with you so that your purpose may be fulfilled in our lives. Anything you find in us that makes you sad, O God, wipe it away. Have mercy, in your mercy purify. In your mercy, O God, cleanse. In your mercy, O God, sanctify. In your mercy, purge. In your mercy, O God, heal. In your mercy, intervene. In your mercy, transform. In your mercy, deliver. Have mercy, O God, in the name of Jesus.
- Whatever we were supposed to do and did not do, Lord, we are sorry; we repent. Whatever we have done that we didn’t do well, Father forgive us every trespass, every impurity, every iniquity in the name of Jesus.
- Look into our lives. Search our hearts. Cleanse our hearts of bitterness, resentment, malice, strife, unforgiveness, any form of defilement, any form of iniquity, impurity and contamination. Purge, purify, sanctify, wash us thoroughly and make us pure in the name of Jesus.
- Everlasting and most high God, thank you so much in Jesus name.
