Matt. 10: 08- 10
08. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils, freely ye have received, freely give. 09. 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 workman is worthy of his meat. (KJV Bible).
When I read this passage, I strongly feel that I should never be guilty of not giving what I got from my Lord and my saviour free of charge freely. This is the very reason that though I come from the third world, though I could do a lot with a bit of extra money to my ministry as well as my family, I have decided that you should read this book free of charge. My aim is not to make 100 million bucks but to see that 100 million read this book and be ready for the day of the Lord to meet him in the clouds.
After reading this book, if you have anything to comment or if the Lord quickens your heart to make a donation to my ministry or my family, please feel free to write to joshuagen2005@gmail.com. To contact me will be easy this way but to get my details will be a bit of time consuming and if the Lord has spoken to you, then you will go all out to obey Him. If not enjoy reading this book and if you are infected with some of the symptoms written here come out of it before our King of Kings and Lord of Lords returns.
I give all glory and honour to my saviour and Lord Jesus Christ through God the Holy Spirit for this revelation word.Also I would like to see that you are blessed in abundance so that you could be a blessing to the others. (Gen. 12: from verse 1).
5 From the tribe of Judah 12,000 were sealed, from the tribe of Reuben 12,000,
from the tribe of Gad 12,000,
6 from the tribe of Asher 12,000, from the tribe of Naphtali 12,000, from the tribe of Manasseh 12,000,
7 from the tribe of Simeon 12,000, from the tribe of Levi 12,000, from the tribe of Issachar 12,000,
8 from the tribe of Zebulun 12,000, from the tribe of Joseph 12,000, from the tribe of Benjamin 12,000.
Rev 14:1-51 Then I looked, and there before me was the Lamb, standing on Mount Zion, and with him 144,000 who had his name and his Father's name written on their foreheads.
2 And I heard a sound from heaven like the roar of rushing waters and like a loud peal of thunder. The sound I heard was like that of harpists playing their harps.
3 And they sang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed from the earth.
4 These are those who did not defile themselves with women, for they kept themselves pure. They follow the Lamb wherever he goes. They were purchased from among men and offered as firstfruits to God and the Lamb.
5 No lie was found in their mouths; they are blameless. (from The Holy Bible: New International Version. Copyright (c) 1973, 1978, 1984, by International Bible Society)
I am fully aware that some of you might agree and some of you might disagree with what contains here. I am fully aware of the judgement, which the teachers will get if I am to be judged by God Almighty on the last day due to teaching wrong or by non-practicing what I have taught. Also I am not writing this book to become a millionaire. What I want is a hundred million to read it and heed it. Only then I will be happy thinking and feeling that God The Holy Spirit used me to write this book. As I am not using my intellectual knowledge to write this but the guidance of God The Holy Spirit, I am Giving ALL glory and ALL honour to God The Father in heaven in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth as our heavenly Father loves us so much where no writer can put on paper as Agape Love is unexplainable with human words because it is unconditional and we humans do not have it.
At a time where my wife and I are taking a rest from Lord’s work, as God The Holy Spirit continues to teach us many things, He showed me this beautiful teaching. This is something we do not learn in the church, the ministry, or at Sunday school because this subject is hot and very difficult to talk in public. That is the very reason God The Holy Spirit inspired me to put this on paper so you can read it and apply this in your life as it could be applicable to each and every individual living on this earth today.
Today, as we live in the last days on earth, Satan does two things to people, as there are two kinds of people on this earth. First let us check who the two kinds of people are according to the word of God;
1. The believers. 2. The non-believers.The two things that Satan will do to these two kinds of people are:-
a) . Making the believer a non-believer. Simply making salvation null and void so the moment you die you will reach Hell for good. Though you have lost salvation, sometimes you do not know about it until you reach the gates of hell. May be I am too bold to write here what I said, as many Christians do think and believe that they will reach heaven the moment they die even they do not practice God’s commandments and as they do not have a personal relationship with Jesus our saviour and Lord.
The second thing he does is;b) . Making the non-believer confirmed in non-belief. Simply bringing a non-believer to a situation of never believing. Because of the believers and servants have lost salvation, the non believer will never see Jesus in them due to lack of testimony through one’s own life. The non-believer will never come to know or experience Jesus Christ.
Though we are very much interested in the second category of people, as Christians and servants of God, in this book I am going to show you of one very very important side of, how Satan will make us believers loose salvation and make a believer a non-believer. The moment we correct this situation we have the answer to the second kind too.
While reading this book please pray that God the Holy Spirit will open your Spiritual eyes to see what He is talking about. There are many who are going through situations like what you will read in this book in this world today. Please pray so that they will also get a chance to overcome similar situations. Today there are many Christians who are born again or saved by the grace but have not become new creatures. They still indulge in their old sins. Therefore at this point let us identify the true Christian.
I personally take someone as a true Christian when he or she fulfils the following 3 points.1. You must know and believe Jesus Christ as your personal saviour and as the only begotten son of living God.
(While repenting for the sins committed so far and by asking Jesus to come in to one’s life). You should be born again). (Salvation of Justification).
Acts 2:36-3836 "Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ."
37 When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?”
38 Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
John 3:5-76 Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit.
7 You should not be surprised at my saying, `You must be born again.'
13 When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, "Who do people say the Son of Man is?"
14 They replied, "Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets."
15 "But what about you?" he asked. "Who do you say I am?"
17 Jesus replied, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven.
(from The Holy Bible: New International Version. Copyright (c) 1973, 1978, 1984, by International Bible Society)
In this particular passage, you will notice that after coming to Caesarea Philippi, Jesus Christ asking a simple question from His disciples. He is asking, “Who do people say the Son of Man is?”
The disciples of Jesus answered correctly by telling Him exactly what people said about Him. Then after hearing that, Jesus is asking another question and that is, “But what about you? Who do you say I am?” Verse 16 was Peter’s answer.
You see here, Peter gives not one but two answers. When Jesus heard the two answers, Jesus is explaining a spiritual truth to His disciples. He is saying unless His father in heaven reveals this to Peter, no man with his intellectual capability cannot do it. (The two answers are;
1. You are the Christ, which means Saviour, 2. Son of the living God),Please note that Jesus says very clearly that flesh and blood (man) cannot give this answer regarding who He is. Dear reader you do the following test. Take ten of your best friends and ask them who Jesus is? Their answer will be one but not both or something else. Any man on this earth will give at least one answer about Jesus Christ if you ask them, (even if they are non-Christian) but not both. Unless you are really born again your answer will be different to the biblical answer Peter gave.
2. When you have thirst for the word of God, where obedience comes automatically. (Salvation of Sanctification).
Ps 119:9. How can a young man keep his way pure? By living according to your word.Ps 119:11. I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.
Ps 119:105-106
106 I have taken an oath and confirmed it, that I will follow your righteous laws. (from The Holy Bible: New International Version. Copyright (c) 1973, 1978, 1984, by International Bible Society)
Without thirst for the word no one could be called a Christian. Today in this world there are many who say “I love Jesus”. But if one loves Jesus, they will spend a lot of time with Him. Just for an example take a young couple who are in love. They will spend as much as time together so that they will know each other better. It is the same with Jesus. The one who wants to be the bride of Jesus will want to spend time as much as he can to know Jesus better. When one knows Jesus better he or she will adjust life accordingly so Jesus will be happy. If anyone wants to know Jesus better, he or she will read His word, who became flesh to live among us.
When you are bride of Christ, there are certain things you will fulfil as your part to remain as bride/wife. You will fulfil the day-to-day requirements of your husband. With Jesus, the most important of them is the great commission.
Matt 28:18-2019 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
(from The Holy Bible: New International Version. Copyright (c) 1973, 1978, 1984, by International Bible Society)
To fulfil the great commission we need to spend time at His feet for constant guidance. We need to be well nourished with the word. We should be attached to a spirit filled local church, where fellowship with those people is appreciated at all times by you and your family. We need to have good testimony, which will touch people.
In the Kingdom Of God There are no spiritual civilians. You get only spiritual soldiers. Anyone who decides to fight for Christ is a soldier and he or she is serving the living God. Therefore if you do not want to serve I do not recon you as a true Christian. Some one might wonder if all become servants, where will one find people to be served. Dear reader the word of God is very clear in saying that even on the day of the Lord there will be unbelievers on this earth.
For an example take a big company in this world. They will recruit and recruit until the company is full of workers and then they will announce that there are no more vacancies. But in God’s kingdom we always have vacancies as God tells us to pray that many will become farmers to gather the harvest specially during the end of times.
Satan does not like to see someone getting saved by the blood of Jesus. The moment you do so you become the enemy of Satan and he will start attacking you. If you do not get trained to fight, and wants to remain as a civilian in the Kingdom of God you are sure to loose the battle.
God the Holy Spirit advice all children of God to wear God’s armour. Armour is worn by soldiers not civilians. Even in the secular world it is war rules to wear armour before fighting or else the civilians will get killed if you fight in civilian clothing. In the modern world we see a few wars are being fought in civilian clothing. Men have become so inhuman they do not mind civilian deaths during a war. But remember Our God Almighty don’t like to see His fighters fighting in civilian clothing, and that is why He wants us to wear His armour before fighting.
1 Peter 2:99 But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.
See! This scripture tells us that all of us are His chosen people, all of us are His royal priesthood and all of us are His holy nation (one nation). That means if we all are priests, we are serving God in some way. I received salvation in 1986. I learnt this principle of becoming a soldier in God’s army much more lately but still God taught me to become one.
You see, all who sail are not swimmers but when we sail the thought comes automatically “why didn’t I learn to swim?”, because only when you sail you get to think whether the ship will sink due to some problem. Though it is so in the secular world, God does not want us to be like that in His kingdom. That is why He has a five-fold system of ministry established where one ministry is for the teachers. The teacher is able to teach with the guidance of God The Holy Spirit, how to fight the spiritual battles victoriously.
God the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity who lead us in to all truth. Therefore when I teach, I would pray that God the Holy Spirit will use only my mouth to speak what He desire as He is the teacher of all teachers.
Eph 6:13-1713 Therefore put on the full armour of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.
14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.
16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
(from The Holy Bible: New International Version. Copyright (c) 1973, 1978, 1984, by International Bible Society)
In God’s armour I have highlighted two articles for your observation. In the olden days the belt used to hold the sword in the armour of soldiers. Without the belt you cannot carry the sword. In God’s armour the belt is called the truth. The fight between God’s kingdom and Satan’s kingdom is between truth and lies. God is the giver of truth, where Satan is the father of all lies.
If we are not wearing the belt of truth, that means we are not on God’s side but we are fighting for Satan army. Because only God is truth.
Further if we do not wear the belt of truth, which means we cannot wear the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
What is God the Holy Spirit talking to us here? If we think for a moment, even a non-believer can know the word of God if they study and memorize? Here, the word of God means, the revelation word of God the Holy Spirit, which is also called Rhema word. Anyone who reads the word can know the written meaning of it without any difficulty. But if one wants to know the purpose of the word, then, only God The Holy Spirit can reveal it to us. Without knowing the purpose of the word, even if we speak the good news to hundreds of people, even one wouldn’t come to accept Christ.
Therefore if you are not wearing the belt of truth, I am convinced that you do not know the purpose of the word of God. You will be a person who is trying to nourish your flock with processed food (a word revealed to someone else) not the oven fresh (a word revealed to you direct). Or if you are a believer, you will be learning a lot from others than learning direct from God The Holy Spirit.
The armour of God is amazing. When you are a believer, you are to wear them for your protection because you are at war at all times. We can wear all the armour only when we allow God The Holy Spirit to sanctify us fully. You might think this is impossible but the moment we come to read the chapter regarding holiness in this book, you will know it is possible.
Therefore dear reader to me a true Christian will have three aspects in his walk with the Christ and that is ‘To be born again, thirst for the word and thirst to serve.
Adultery
Wilful sexual intercourse with someone other than one’s husband or wife. (Nelson’s new illustrated Bible dictionary).
FornicationSexual relationships outside the bonds of marriage. The technical distinction between fornication and adultery is that adultery involves married persons while fornication involves at least one unmarried person. (Nelson’s new illustrated Bible dictionary).
LasciviousnessHaving, manifesting or arousing sensual desires, Lustful. (Funk & Wagnall’s Standard Dictionary).
Simply, Looking Sexy. Incest
Sexual relations with one’s relatives, a sin expressly forbidden by the Law of Moses. Intercourse was forbidden with one’s mother, father, step mother, step father, sister, brother, grand daughter, grand son, step sister, step brother, aunt, uncle, daughter in-law, son in-law, step daughter, and step son.
BestialityHaving sexual activity with any kind of beast. Homosexuality
A male having sexual relationship with another male.
Lesbianism A female having sexual relationship with another female.
This standard applies as mentioned above to both physical and, spiritual family too. In a lot of passages in the Bible, God speaks about His spiritual family. Let’s read one such passage for us to get a good understanding of it.
Ex 20:4-64 "You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below.
5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me,
6 but showing love to a thousand [ generations] of those who love me and keep my commandments.
(from The Holy Bible: New International Version. Copyright (c) 1973, 1978, 1984, by International Bible Society)
Here God is talking about our physical generations as well as spiritual generations. When He says that He will punish people who hate Him up to the third and fourth generation, He is talking about the physical generations.
But in verse 6, when He is talking about a thousand generations, He is talking about the spiritual generations. I will tell you why? According to the word of God, a generation is 40 years.
Num 32: 1313 The LORD’s anger burned against Israel and he made them wander in the desert forty years, until the whole generation of those who had done evil in his sight was gone.
(from The Holy Bible: New International Version. Copyright (c) 1973, 1978, 1984, by International Bible Society)
From Adam to this day is only 6000 years. If we count them in generations it is 150. For a thousand physical generations to pass there should be at least another 34000 years.
From Adam to Abraham = 2000 years, or 50
Generations.
From Abraham to Jesus = 2000 years, or 50
Generations.
From Jesus to 2000 AD = 2000 years, or 50
Generations.
As up to date only 150 generations have occupied this earth, for another physical 850 generations will take another 34000 years. As we are already aware that we are living in the last days, we know this promise should be fulfilled only spiritually.
If that is so, how could it happen?As the main object of Jesus Christ today in us is that we make disciples of all nations, it is possible that I have a spiritual son or a daughter. It is possible my spiritual son/daughter will have a spiritual son/daughter. It is possible that they will have their own spiritual off spring. Likewise if I serve God according to His plan and purpose, my disciples will have spiritual off spring up to a thousand generations in few years or it could be more too. HALLELUJAH!
Let us see a biblical example of this system as it is God ordained.In Exodus 18: 13 onwards we see Moses trying to settle problems of the chosen people of God all by himself. The queue to meet Moses is so long and big where Moses don’t have time to spend with God as he is tired in the evening. Here we see that God speaks to his father in law and give advise to Moses, how to run his affairs more fluently and systematically. God wants Moses to appoint a leader for every 10 people. Then a leader for every 50. Then a leader for every 100. Finally a leader for every 1000.
If any pastor or a leader of a church is going to follow this principal that church will be a very successful one as it practices God’s principals in church building. Also many people who serve in the church will have their spiritual offspring up to a thousand generations within a short period.
CHAPTER 03In this present world, there are many demon-possessed people. But there are fifty times more who are demon influenced. You may say you don’t believe or you do not agree. The very excuse you will think of is, because all temptations are demon influenced. My answer to this excuse is all temptations do not lead you to sin but what I am writing here will lead you to sin again and again as you have a door opened for demons to attack you. Therefore please keep on reading.
Even if you are demon-possessed or demon influenced the end result is same and that is you will not inherit the Kingdom of God. But the danger and difference in these two are, if you are demon possessed, the demons could be chased out in the name of Jesus. You can come to know Jesus by believing in Him and receive salvation and become a true Christian, so that some day you will be with Jesus Christ forever as He promises eternal life.
The moment you are in to a Spirit filled service, the demons will start manifesting and they will come out in the name of Jesus. The moment you meet some true believers who have the power and authority of Jesus Christ and the supernatural gifts of Holy Ghost, with His guidance and command, demon spirits will flee in the name of Jesus.
When you are demon influenced, nothing like this happens because you are not possessed by demons to manifest. The only manifestation you yourself will experience at all is that you will be disobedient to the word of God and even in the secrecy you will harbour sin in your heart. You may be serving or just a believer but simply you are in a position where your mouth says something and your heart says something else. Most of the time your words and heart do not agree. The secular world calls them double minded. When you are demon influenced you need to come out of it.
See! A situation like this no one knows except God. While continuing a long time in the same manner, will bring you to a situation where it is very difficult to deliver you, as it will become a part of your day-to-day life. Though you have received the salvation of justification, as you have not allowed God The Holy Spirit to take you in the paths of Salvation of Sanctification, still you will go to hell when you die. Do you think it is too much to stomach? Dear brother/sister in Christ this is the truth.
I would like to add a personal note to what I said about salvation here as many of you wouldn’t know or have not learnt what real salvation is. Salvation divides in to 3 parts.
Rom 3:23
23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, (from The Holy Bible: New International Version. Copyright (c) 1973, 1978, 1984, by International Bible Society)
At this stage one will acknowledge the sins committed and repent for the sins and will ask Jesus Christ to come in to his or her life.
