Where is Our Brokenness?
Scripture: Luke 10:2Devotional Series: Conflict with the Whore
Teaching: Conflict With The Whore pt. 4 (WED 2021-02-10) by Pastor Star R Scott
The false prophets in Jeremiah 14:13 assured peace; no famine, no sword. We’re living in an hour in which you will hear this message very strongly in these last days: “There will be a great revival in the church! It’s just another emphasis against the Word of God and for the ascendency of men coming from the spirit of antichrist. This revival that is coming (as we shared) is Augustinian. We have heard of it for a couple of decades, since the Kingdom Now doctrine, how the church will go into politics and business, and how all the Christians will become multi‑billionaires and will control all the corporations and control the politics; then the church will be able to bring about morality and set a compass for the nations. Eventually they will be able to offer up to Jesus His kingdom. The Bible says that we are to pray, “Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven”; amen? His kingdom! His kingdom is a kingdom of power, praise God! It’s a kingdom of supernatural insertion. His kingdom is that stone of Daniel’s vision, that came with no hands of man involved in its making, that destroys all the other nations; amen? (Daniel 2:34‑35). That’s His kingdom.
So, today you’re going to hear this talk about the “great revival.” They’ll add to it saying that this is the Latter Day rain, the outpouring of the Holy Ghost; but we already saw that occurred on the Day of Pentecost. It clearly is interpreted, “But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel…” We are in the last days. We are in the days of the Latter Rain, the outpouring of the Holy Ghost. There is a revival going on in the church right now. There is a church that is being purified. There has always been that remnant, whether it be the Waldenses (what a people: isolated, separated to God, hated by the Roman Church) and the persecution that will be met upon the true church. We saw in Micah 3:5 that they will make the people err crying, “Peace!” We saw in Isaiah 30:10 that they said, “Speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits.” Second Timothy 4 says that they have itching ears and they raise up to themselves false teachers, turning from the truth. Jeremiah 5:31 says, “The prophets prophesy falsely…and my people love to have it so.” He said in Isaiah 30:10 that the people would cry out, “Prophesy not unto us right things…speak flatteries to us. Tell us how holy and spiritual we are. What is all this that is heralded about coming out of the world?” People don’t want to hear that message; the flesh doesn’t want to hear the message: “Thou shalt have no other gods before me.”
There are people in here right now who are more caught up with fashion than they are being filled with the Holy Ghost. They surely spend more time seeking it. There are people in our midst, right now, pursuing pleasure and content to have all this natural fellowship and being satisfied to get together and eat cake, when a world is going to hell around us and Jesus is saying, “Lift up your eyes and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest…Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth laborers into his harvest.” Where is our brokenness? Where is our compassion? How can we sit in our houses and pursue our own interests when the world is dying, going go a devil’s hell? It’s by our fruits that we are known. We are in the last days! Who will tell us the truth? What are the false prophets prophesying? They are prophesying the prosperity message of ease and comfort. Where is the message to live holy lives and labor in the harvest (Luke 10:2)?
