I would like to put the following questions before every professed Christian.
1. Can God perform today as he has in times past?
2. Can he command someone to serve him according to his own pleasing?
3. Does he concern himself with the world's approval or disapproval concerning how he instructs an individual to live his life unto him?
Now regardless to how you answered the preceding questions, in order to understand me, you must first understand my conviction. As an apostle of the Lord I must serve him according to his pleasing. I am used in ways that are far beyond the knowledge and understanding of many people and preachers alike. The majority of their hearts have not in them the desire to understand the deeper things of God, for if they did then he would certify unto them the things of which my life testify unto. It is beyond the ability of many professed Christians to see they are following the exact course of those with whom the Lord has never had pleasure, the ones who's hearts operated in unbelief. How can such people have numerous examples of how God has dealt with his anointed preachers, in times past, but today, when they encounter preachers under the same exact anointing, they cast condemnation from their mouths against what they refuse to open their eyes to see or their hearts to try and understand.
I am a man of much controversy. As an apostle of the Lord my actions are not understood by those who are outside the spirit of Christ. I am judged rather than heard. I express things that other apostles may or may not have expressed. But at the end of it all there are two things that will always hold true. (1) The end of whatever I preach will point an individual to the peace of God. (2) And I will always invite anyone with a sincere heart to go to God in prayer for directions of their future journey.
I don't live my life in secret because I have nothing to hide. I don't try and cover what I preach, as pertaining to the name of the Lord. God is either inspiring me to represent him as I do, or I have lied on him. It is only through and by the spirit that anyone can obtain the accuracy concerning my spiritual inspiration.
I wonder if people accurately understood God to have been using the following anointed men?
ISAIAH
20:1 In the year that Tartan came unto Ashdod, (when Sargon the king of Assyria sent him,) and fought against Ashdod, and took it;
2 At the same time spake the LORD by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, Go and loose the sackcloth from off thy loins, and put off thy shoe from thy foot. And he did so, walking naked and barefoot.
3 And the LORD said, Like as my servant Isaiah hath walked naked and barefoot three years for a sign and wonder upon Egypt and upon Ethiopia;
EZEKIEL
4:1 Thou also, son of man, take thee a tile, and lay it before thee, and pourtray upon it the city, even Jerusalem:
2 And lay siege against it, and build a fort against it, and cast a mount against it; set the camp also against it, and set battering rams against it round about.
3 Moreover take thou unto thee an iron pan, and set it for a wall of iron between thee and the city: and set thy face against it, and it shall be besieged, and thou shalt lay siege against it. This shall be a sign to the house of Israel.
4 Lie thou also upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it thou shalt bear their iniquity.
5 For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.
6 And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year.
7 Therefore thou shalt set thy face toward the siege of Jerusalem, and thine arm shall be uncovered, and thou shalt prophesy against it.
8 And, behold, I will lay bands upon thee, and thou shalt not turn thee from one side to another, till thou hast ended the days of thy siege.
9 Take thou also unto thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentiles, and millet, and fitches, and put them in one vessel, and make thee bread thereof, according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon thy side , three hundred and ninety days shalt thou eat thereof.
10 And thy meat which thou shalt eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day: from time to time shalt thou eat it.
11 Thou shalt drink also water by measure, the sixth part of an hin: from time to time shalt thou drink.
12 And thou shalt eat it as barley cakes, and thou shalt bake it with dung that cometh out of man, in their sight.
13 And the LORD said, Even thus shall the children of Israel eat their defiled bread among the Gentiles, whither I will drive them.
14 Then said I, Ah Lord GOD! behold, my soul hath not been polluted: for from my youth up even till now have I not eaten of that which dieth of itself, or is torn in pieces; neither came there abominable flesh into my mouth.
HOSEA
1:1 The word of the LORD that came unto Hosea, the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.
2 The beginning of the word of the LORD by Hosea. And the LORD said to Hosea, Go, take unto thee a wife of whoredoms and children of whoredoms: for the land hath committed great whoredom , departing from the LORD.
3 So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; which conceived, and bare him a son.
PETER
Acts 11:1 And the apostles and brethren that were in Judaea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God.
2 And when Peter was come up to Jerusalem, they that were of the circumcision contended with him,
3 Saying, Thou wentest in to men uncircumcised, and didst eat with them.
4 But Peter rehearsed the matter from the beginning, and expounded it by order unto them, saying,
5 I was in the city of Joppa praying: and in a trance I saw a vision, A certain vessel descend, as it had been a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came even to me:
6 Upon the which when I had fastened mine eyes, I considered, and saw fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.
7 And I heard a voice saying unto me, Arise, Peter; slay and eat .
AGABUS
Acts 21:10 And as we tarried there many days, there came down from Judaea a certain prophet, named Agabus.
11 And when he was come unto us, he took Paul's girdle, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus saith the Holy Ghost, So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.
12 And when we heard these things, both we, and they of that place, besought him not to go up to Jerusalem.
13 Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.
I therefore conclude by asking the following questions of you who profess to know whether or not I'm operating under the inspiration of God;
Can God inspire a man to take his clothes off today as he did with Isaiah?
Can God inspire a man to lay, for an extended periord of time, on his side today as he did with Ezekiel?
Can God inspire a man to take unto him a whore for a wife (or a concubne for his woman) today as he did with Hosea?
Can God inspire a man to go and be in the company of people with whom others say he shouldn't; such as he did Peter?
Can God inspire a man to demonstrate today like he did with Agabus?
And finally; can a lie to be in the mouths of people today as it were in the mouths of the four hundred and fifty prophets of Ahab? Examine yourself and see!
