Matthew 22:12 (KJV)
[12] And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
I had a dream, that I awoke to a Church service where the atmosphere was exciting, yet lifeless, the music was strange and the worship was mechanical, the preaching was unbelievably exceptional, yet without Spirit. And I saw that the people were entertained, but not renewed.
And I wept.
They All Had Garments On. But Few Had “The” Wedding Garment!
The Exception Had Become The Rule.

Luke 24:32 (KJV) [32] And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?
Delayed Recognition Can Cause Missed Opportunities. Recognizing Jesus Is Here Now Is Better Than Recalling Later!
So The Next Time You Get In Jesus’ Presence Take Full Advantage.

Hosea 10:12 (KJV)
[12] {Sow} to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; {break up your fallow ground}: for it is time to *seek the LORD, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.
Fallow Ground is unbroken unplowed ground.
• Sow seed and it is wasted
• Water with rain and it runs off
We need to “Seek the Lord” by preparing our hearts ground!
The Most Powerful Word Preached and The Greatest Outpouring of Spirit, Does Little On Ground That Is No More Ready To Receive It Than Seed Thrown On The Desert Floor And Then The Rain Pouring Down!

2 Timothy 3:5 (KJV)
[5] Having a (form) of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
The word rendered in translation as (form) means a “Sketch”. Meaning they are just Outlines not filled in… of god-ness! That clearly describes many (so called) Christians/Apostolic’s. And even most modern church services.
We/You/Services need to be (filled) with His Spirit!
Without His Spirit “You/Services” are just empty “Sketches”.

Ezekiel 22:30 (KJV)
[30] And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not (destroy it): but I found none.
God is not asking you to be everything and in all places! Just be a “Gap Filler”. Be somebody that takes a stand and makes the difference!
He said “I sought for a man” It could be you? That becomes that One piece that Prevents Destruction and Judgement!
When there is no Deliverer Destruction will come. Be a “Gap Filler”
Your Love Ones Could Be Saved, If?

1 Timothy 4:1 (KJV)
[1] Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
These Are The Last Days!
God’s Spirit is Definitive and Clear, That There Are Deceiving Spirits Trying To Pull You Away from Truth and Your Confidence.
Seducing you away from God’s Grace my children! Beware and Hold On for we are in the Final Act of the Church Age!
Pray That He Shorten The Days.

1 Peter 2:13-15 (KJV)
[13] Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; [14] Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well. [15] For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
To Obey or Not To Obey… that is the question.
Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man. When it doesn’t conflict with Biblical ordinance.
