So called apostles, prophets, bishops and so on, have led the church to become so sophisticated, that they have forgotten how to simply be effective!

The kind of nonsense that is being taught is so high minded, that I believe even the Holy Spirit frowns at a lot of what is being said in His Name!

It’s become a show to “impress” with vocabulary and high minded ideas.

Have we somehow forgotten that He “chooses the weak and the base things of this world, and the things that are not, to confound the wise?”

It was an anointed “kettie” (slingshot) that accomplished what the royal armour never could, in bringing Goliath down!

Satan is not impressed by the dictionary you have swallowed. In fact, he is likely to use it in an attempt to swell your head and to shrink your heart and to leave you as power-stripped in pride as Samson was laying in Delilah’s lap!

God seeks serving servants. Let’s rediscover purpose!
