Everyone Wants A Title (Pt. 1)

Category: Religion and Philosophy

I am bothered with the rest of you when one bad apple spoils the bunch. However, there is still order that must be maintained in the kingdom. Even in heaven, order will be established. I am writing this to explain why we address men and women of G-d, OF THE CALLED, by titles. It is in response to a blog entitled:

"The TRUTH exposed about Prophet AlwaysGottaWord!"

Blogger:

Without calling names...what are your thoughts about all these so-called prophets and Prophetesses whose words have never came to pass, yet they are always saying they got a fresh word from heaven? I am curious; I was listening to an old tape of a prophet that shall remain nameless. They gave a word 7 years ago about something that was suppose to happen in less than 3 years and it has yet to come to pass. Did they just miss it or did they just flat out lie. Help me out. Let me know what the deal is.Why is everyone trying to get a title these days? It seems like everyone wants to be Bishop this, Prophet that, and so forth and so on. What is that all about?

My Response:

Concerning your blog I just wanted to respond to why do people have to have a title? Why call a doctor Dr., why call your mom, mother, why hold anyones honour at hand. It's simply for this, (I say this not because I hold a prophetic office. I am content with Sister Elias.) Title are held out of respect it keeps the proper perspective between individuals.

Example Mr./Mrs. or Sister Saved and Brother Live Holy is a respectable greeting. People can get comfortable at times and lose respect for an individual.

Title is out of respect and honour, I'll prove it, Go before the president of the United States and call him George, go before the Judge and call him by his first name and it might land you 30 days in the county.

It is not a title thing for me to call someone by a proper title it is about a respect thing.

Furthermore is helps to characterize the person, you know a prophet is a prophet without discern it because that is their title.

The main people that have problem addressing others; if you could take a look at their life they are not submitted to their spouse, their pastor, their bosses', etc. A humble person have no problem addressing others out of just common respect. I was raised to say, 'yes sir' and 'no sir'. Rather I liked the person or not; that is just something that has stuck with me as a child.

God knows all things, these people will not get away. Remember the servant that came to the feast illegally, the ruler order him to be set captive. Do not envy or worry about evildoers' or you may be entrap in the devices of the enemy; bitterness and strife.

I love to hear your response to this>>>Prophetess

I will go into details on the first part of this question later...

ABUNDANCE OF THE HEART 101

Current mood: complacent

Category: Religion and Philosophy

This is just me and you 101, I have been overwhelmed with grief in my spirit man concerning the enemies tactics against the church of Christ. Their is a spirit that is spewing through the earth of covetousness.

It is God's pleasure to see His people prosper but why, the bible says that we are allowed to prosper to fulfill the promises of God.

Deut. 8:10 When you have eaten and are satisfied, praise the LORD your God for the good land he has given you. 11 Be careful that you do not forget the LORD your God, failing to observe his commands, his laws and his decrees that I am giving you this day. 12 Otherwise, when you eat and are satisfied, when you build fine houses and settle down, 13 and when your herds and flocks grow large and your silver and gold increase and all you have is multiplied, 14 then your heart will become proud and you will forget the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 15 He led you through the vast and dreadful desert, that thirsty and waterless land, with its venomous snakes and scorpions. He brought you water out of hard rock. 16 He gave you manna to eat in the desert, something your fathers had never known, to humble and to test you so that in the end it might go well with you. 17 You may say to yourself, "My power and the strength of my hands have produced this wealth for me." 18 But remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms his covenant, which he swore to your forefathers, as it is today.

It is never in God's plan for us to hoard what God is trying to put in our hand and for us to distribute the abundance out to others. The bible said not to accumulate treasures that collect dust and moth eat up but store up treasures in heaven. The bible speaks says:

31"When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his throne in heavenly glory. 32All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left. 34"Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.' 37"Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink?

So you see your giving to those in need is an outward reflection on your inner man towards Christ. Rejecting those in need is equivalent to rejecting Christ when you withhold your hand. I believe we are to be like the Church of ol' times it is written...

Acts2:42They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. 43Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles. 44All the believers were together and had everything in common. 45Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need. 46Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, 47praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.

I believe if we as people of God want to add to His body we have to be sincere towards one another and distribute to one another as we have need. That is what separates us from the world a people from different backgrounds, race, genders, traditions can come to ONE LORD and have everything in common. That means we do not let one another go without, we do not walk around with unforgiveness, bitter and strife. We know how to judge our affairs accordingly. God says He blesses us to bless others in word, sound or deed.

We know this old earth shall pass and a new heaven and earth shall we dwell forever more. So we do not get tied up in the world's perception of riches and success, alts and materialism. I am not saying by far to not write the vision and make it plan at the same time I am saying take no thought for tomorrow there is enough in our day to consider. One day at a time... I believe if we focus on one step at a time we will look up and see we have came farther then we were and look back and see what the Holy Spirit has lead us out of. Praise God!!!

If any man lacks wisdom concerning this the bible says to ask of God of course in Jesus name and he will give it to you liberally and upbraideth not. Their is not 12 steps to God their is only one step to him obedience. Obedience will lead to surrendering, submission, humblenes and understanding. You will realize that you are a precious vessel in the sight of God that he wants to continue to pour His spirit in. That means more wisdom, more revelation ,more knowledge because with "all" your getting we have to know what wisdom is speaking. I am just vex about the walls that is up in the church (people). We have been called to owe no man but the debt of love that Christ has filled our cup with. We can never run out of love because "God is Love" if their is no love there is definitely not God there. So Love and God goes hand in hand.

I love you people of God with a godly agape love. Nothing shall separate my love for God's people because the author of it dwells in me. Hallelujah!

I must end this Abundance of the Heart 101 but, I would like to end with this...

Colossians 2:2My purpose is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ,..

As I was there I remain in the presence of Christ Jesus!

My Friday Story: "How to Connect With the Anointing" -- 22 Jan 07, Monday

"How to Connect With the Anointing"

The Anointing of Fresh OilMany people never truly become who they're supposed to be in Christ because of their traditions or past failures. They seldom realize that by not becoming all that God has called them to be, they seriously hinder their ability to connect with His anointing.
Be enlightening by uncovering the secrets to the anointing connection and reveal the importance of getting dressed in God's power. The anointing produces victory and success. However, it can only be effective when we obey God and meditate on His Word daily.

God anointed you to help fulfill your destiny. Experience a greater level of God's glory. Purpose in your heart to consistently withdraw the anointing and expand your capacity for God's power to become operative in your life.

His Ambassador,
Prophetess L.M. Elias
