"Then shall his brother's wife come unto him in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face, and shall answer and say, So shall it be done unto that man that will not build up his brother's house" (Dt:25:9). We must all be willing to "esteem other better than ourselves" (PH:2:3), to "Look not every man to his own things, but every man also on the things of others" (PH:2:4). Like Paul, we should not be "seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many that they may be saved" (1 Cor:10:33). If we know we cannot help an individual to "grow up into him in all things" (Eph:4:15), we should be perfectly willing to send them to another ministry we know is approved of Christ. We should be willing to send them to another pastor who perhaps moves in a different annointing then we do, but that is needed by that precious soul Christ died for. God's ideal though, is tohave all five fold headship ministries working together in any given city so that the saints can receive of all these anointings without having to wander from church to church. I pray that soon we will see these true apostolic churches springing up everywhere. An apostle's ministry is entirely focused on building up everyone else's ministry. Apostle's, not evangelists, who are founding churches today should be just as eager to ordain and set in place teachers and evangelists as they do pastors. As an apostolic ministry we can say with Paul, "we will very gladly spend, and be spent for you; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved" (2 Cor:12:15).
"For the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light" (Lk:16:8). In the world, they understand that the purpose of education is to send the student on to the next level, eventually to graduate and leave the educational system, but in a typical church, they hoard the people, refusing to let them grow past the level they are at. There are 2nd grade churches and there are 7th grade churches and there are 12th grade and there are college level churches, spiritually. After a pastor and church has taught and imparted all they can to an individual, they should send them on to a church of God's choosing that can impart things to them they never will. Not that God might not choose some to remain, on occassion, to help with the work. The number of babies in the nursery determines the number of nurses needed to help care for them. But unless there is true apostolic and prophetic anointing, most churches simply cannot produce healthy, well-rounded christians because they usually focus on one are of doctrine only, because they are doctrinally centered and not Christ centered. Would Christ sacrifice your efforts to win and keep souls for others? Absolutely! Often, one plants and another waters. We are all co-laborers together with Christ, meaning Christ is the foreman, he's the leader of the building project that is the Body of Christ, therefore he can shift materials and supplies and laborers around as he pleases. Saints don't belong to you pastor, they belong to God. You aren't the shepherd of the flock, you are the sheep dog that obeys the shepherd!

Jeremiah Chapter 50 KJV verses thirty nine & forty
"Therefore the wild beasts of the desert, with the wild beasts of the islands shall dwell there, and the owls shall dwell therein. And it shall be no more inhabited forever, neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation".
I praise God for this verse! Essentially God is saying, Babylon, or a place full of rebellion and striving against me, will never happen again, will never exist again. Isn't it good to know, once God deals with all sin and wickedness on earth for a second time, it will never happen again. Once we're in our glorified, eternal bodies, no one will ever allow one thought, one hint of a thought of Pride to enter in. For each one there is hand-picked by God. He will have filtered out, pruned away all who rebel against him. How (or who) we are when we enter eternity is who we'll be forever. Perhaps the reason God allows the smoke of their torment to ascend before his throne forever is to remind all of the price of rebellion against him. And not because he is a mean, dictator who must have every whim obeyes but rather because he is a kind and wise father who simply knows what's best for us, who's every thought for us is good. We will forever know that NO ONE can succeed in trying to usurp him from his throne, his place of authority and power. Amen.
"As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbor cities thereof, saith the Lord, so shall no man abide there, neither shall any son of man dwell therein".
Again, like as in Isaiah 13 and Luke 17, we see the Lord compare Babylon's end with Sodom and Gomorrah's. Like verse 32, this verse reminds us the final judgment will be by fire - a fire that will never end. Perhaps "Global Warming" is really a sign of the times, the fact we're all getting very close to the end. Could the world be heating up as it draws closer to it's final destination, the lake of fire?
Certainly, a sign of impending judgment is an increase in homosexuality. Sodom and Gomorrah were full of this unclean, vile spirit but this spirit has invaded many churches today. Not only are some denominations ordaining homosexuals, but some are walking in this spirit in that, spiritually they are seeking out companionship and intimacy with men rather than with God. They care more for man's approval and company then they do for God's. With God, as with a woman in the natural, they would as a result of intimacy, bear him fruit, yet they refuse and choose instead to lie, spiritually, with each other, thereby denying God the fruit he so rightfully deserves. Many of today's leadership are refusing to bear him fruit, refusing to raise sons and daughters for him, instead committing the "sin of Onan". Onan was one of Judah's sons who refused to bear fruit on behalf of his dead brother. Instead he "spilled it on the ground lest he should give seed to his brother. Wherefore the thing which he did displeased the Lord: wherefore he slew him" (Gen:38:9&10). Many pastors, if given a choice of bearing fruit unto their brother, if they knew all their effort and energy in raising up saints in their care was to bless their brother's church, somenone else's church entirely, would rather spill their seed upon the ground. How tragic, for it brings shame and a curse on their own house. Who knows how many God is raising up in their brother's house (any other minister in any other church) to send to him?

Jeremiah chapter 50 verses thirty seven and thirty eight
"A sword is upon their horses, and upon their chariots, and upon all the mingled people that are in the midst of her; and they shall become as women: a sword is upon her treasures; and they shall be robbed. A drought is upon her waters; and they shall be dried up: for it is the land of graven images, and they are mad upon their idols".
These verses contain the last two of the "sword judgments". Verse 37 reveals the second of two major root meanings of the word "Babylon" (the first beign confusion), that is "mixture". Those in Babylon mingle the Holy with the profane, the lie with the truth, the flesh with the spirit. God consistently warns us about mingling - "Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with a diverse kind: thou shalt not let sow thy field with mingled seed; neither shall a garment mingled of linen and woolen come upon thee" (Lev:19:19). Concerning the pagan peoples God was driving out of the land he promised to his people Israel, he commanded - "Neither shalt thou make marriages with them; thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take unto thy son" (Dt:7:3). One of the greatest indictments against mixture is found in 2 Corinthians 6:14-18.
God's ways are not like man's. He is not trying to foster racial hatred and predjudice. He is trying to teach us something. He does not mix. "The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out WITHOUT MIXTURE into the cup of his indignation" (Rev:14:10). So we see that mixture is a hallmark of Babylon, while purity is a hallmark of God's kingdom. As we leave Babylon behind, more and more as the Day draws nigh, we leave behind mixture with this world, with anything not pure and Holy, with the leaven of the Pharisees (religious pride). We will no longer have "fellowship with devils". We will no longer drink the "cup of the Lord and the cup of devils" (1 Cor:10:21). We will no longer be "partakers of the Lord's table and the table of devils" (1 Cor:10:21). Warning: always remember that "NOW the serpent was MORE SUBTIL than any beast" (Gen:3:1). If the demonic spirit of Religion cannot keep a saint from this truth, of avoiding mixture, he himself will encourage us to separate, to "come out and be separate", only when we do it at his urging, we are separating not to our Holy God but to the false religious spirit. When this happens we think by not mixing with other christians from other denominations, we are pleasing God and remaining pure. We think if we don't do or whatever this spirit commands us, we are becoming Holy. Nothing could be further from the truth. We are not made Holy outwardly by following a set of rules and traditions, no we can only be made Holy inwardly through the sanctifying presence of the Holy Spirit himself, abiding in us through the blood of the Lamb. His presence makes us Holy and not we ourselves, not anything we can do or not do. Yes, the Holy Spirit may lead us to separate from others but when he does so the ones he is separating us from are in Babylon and are "tare christians". When the Holy Spirit leads us away from man, into the wilderness, we leave without bitterness but love for those still in bondage.
Here in Jeremiah 50:37&38, their horses and their treasures are judged. I believe that as she spoiled and robbed God's people, so shall she be robbed. Just as Egypt was stripped of her wealth, gained through the blood and sweat of Israeli slaves, just as Egypt have her wealth to Israel as she fled from her, as she came out of her and became separate, so in these last days we will see a similar spoiling, a great transfer of wealth from Babylon to God's kingdom, to God's people. We will need this wealth when Satan makes his final, desperate gambit by forbidding those in his kingdom to buy or sell without the mark, or the name of the beast or the number of his name. Wealthy believers God has raised up and placed in strategic locations around the world will come forward at this point and offer protection and preservation to many of God's saints as they give all to God's chosen people. God is preparing many even now to be able to grow and produce their own food so as not to be dependant on man.
In verse 38, God declares a drought for it is a land of "graven images and idols". A direct result of idolatry will always be a dearth, a drought of true spiritual food and drink, of the Holy Spirit's good and pure flow. Graven images are merely an outward expression of an inward condition (idolatry). See Ezekial 14:3. Anytime, anywhere, man exalts the work of his hands, his wisdom, his strength, his beauty, any image, especially his own and gives his heart, his passion, his time and attention to them (his worship), this is an affront to God, who alone should receive our adoration. We should be consumed with him and no one else. "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image" (Ex:20:4). Anywhere you see idols set up (Asia and Ireland and India, etc. are full of them), you can be sure they are under the rule of Babylon.
We are certainly not immune to any of this in the west. Our idols today can be church buildings, our doctrines, TV shows or movies or sports, anything we are passionate about more than him, anything we pursue (money) that he doesn't put in our hearts to pursue. Any achievement or ours that doesn't glorify and honor God, "For I the Lord thy God am a jealous God" (Ex:20:5). A sword is upon her treasures and they shall be robbed could also be referring to a modern day tragedy. The Roman Catholic church is currently being stripped of her vast wealth around the world because of the abuse scandals. In the U.S.A. alone they've paid over 2 BILLION DOLLARS to the victims of abuse and there is no end in sight. But it will not stop with them, all churches in Babylon will find themselves being stripped of their worldly wealth, the forbidden gold found in Achan's tent because they forsook heavenly wealth, true riches, "gold tried in the fire, white raiment and eye salve that they may see" (Rev:3:18). These three things are what we all need desparately in this hour. These are essential to surviving these last days. Faith, Purity and Spiritual clarity of hearing and vision.

Jeremiah chapter 50 verse thirty six
"A sword is upon the liars; and they shall dote: a sword is upon her mighty men; and they shall be dismayed". Remember, pastors, leadership, all those in Babylon, obeying Satan's will and ways on the earth ARE LIARS for their father, the king of Babylon, is the father of lies. When they tell us all manner of false doctrines it is because they are liars and doters. "Dote" means "to conduct oneself foolishly" and all leadership in christianity today who are messengers of Satan, twisting and perverting the Truth (remember, Satan preached the Word of God to Jesus), end up conducting themselves foolishly. Nowhere is this more apparent then in their treatment of apostles and prophets. They've so often rejected them, not understanding it's the Holy Spirit they are rejecting. They have a form of godliness but deny the power thereof. The power of godliness comes from the Holy Spirit's work in our hearts, in our lives. It is the Holy Spirit who is raising up apostles and prophets; and leadership who "conduct themselves foolishly" by not receiving them in love will be cut off from the Body. "Every branch in Me that beareth not fruit He taketh away" (John 15:2). "Ichabod", "The Glory is departed", is written on many a church door today, upon many a heart, even upon whole denominations. The sword that is against them is the Word of God, both written and spoken and they will be dismayed to find themselves exposed as the frauds they are. I pray many of them will turn to the apostles and prophets God sends (not the false ones Satan also sends) and say "what must I do to be saved?" (Acts 16:30). God is giving his house an "Extreme makeover" and when he's finished she will look nothing like she did before, she won't resemble Babylon in any way, shape or form.

Jeremiah Chapter 50 verse thirty five
"A sword is upon the Chaldeans, saith the Lord, and upon the inhabitants of Babylon, and upon her princes and upon her wise men". Here, God pronounces judgment on Babylon's leadership, her "princes and wise men". Today, he is also pronouncing judgment on all leadership, including those in the churches, who oppose him. The judgment of Babylon begins in the house of the Lord and it starts there with leadership, but they are just the tip of the iceberg. Ungodly, carnal leadership could not exist without carnal, worldly saints. Those the worldly, carnal churches count wise are fools to God, those the worldly churches call foolish are wise in God's eyes. Do you really think God will stand idly by as churches ordain homosexuals in his name? As they blashpeme the Holy Spirit by accusing him of being sent by Satan? How many times have I heard "the Toronto blessing is not of God"? And each time I know it grieves the Holy Spirit because he most certainly was in the "Toronto blessing" and still is. Of course they've made mistakes and the enemy has tried hard to infiltrate this new move of the Holy Spirit and unfortunately, he has succeeded. He has sent a false manifestation of the Holy Spirit to keep people from experiencing the real. We must be careful which spirit we are submitting to. A spiritual experience from God will always glorify and honor him and result in Holiness, not silliness. This doesnt mean we can't become emotional or seemingly lose control, it just means the end result will be an encounter with him that leaves us more godly than we were before. Changed for the better. If you are experiencing sprititual manifestations but aren't changing within, if you are still harboring sin inside, than most likely it isn't the Holy Spirit you are experiencing. He will convict us of sin while at the same time overwhelming us with his great love for us. He will birth righteousness in us and grow his fruit in us, as well as impart his gifts to us. I thank God for Toronto and anywhere else the Spirit of the living God is able to move as he pleases but I grieve when the enemy is able to mislead them into manifestations that do not come from God. Still, Hooray for them and many others around the world God is setting free and yet, when God tried to bring the Toronto blessing to Ireland, the religious spirit over the nation quickly stamped it out with fear and doubt. In fact, these are two of the religious spirit's greatest weapons - fear and unbelief. He tries to get God's people to fear the Holy Spirit, believing he is really a demonic spirit and he tries to get them to doubt it is the Holy Spirit moving at all. He convinces them the Holy Spirit's ministry is "sloppy" and "not scriptural". Jesus had to deal with this religious spirit's ministry and so does the Holy Spirit today. Just as Jesus "came to his own and his own received him not" (John 1:11), so today is the Holy Spirit being rejected by his own people. In their pride they believe because they haven't experienced the Holy Spirits's presence the way others have, it can't be of God because THEY ARE THE PEOPLE OF GOD, so they can be the only barometers of what God is doing in the earth and so they miss so much because they won't humble themselves and admit God could be moving in another ministry other than their own. "But whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come" (Mt:12:32). Far better for these pastors to take the stance of Gamaliel, in Acts 5, when he said "Refrain from these men and let them alone; for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought. But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it, lest haply ye be found even to fight against God" (Acts 5:38&39).
Too bad Paul didn't heed his advice but continued to come against the "cult of the christians", completely convinced he was doing God's will by jailing and killing as many christians as possible. Similarly, many pastors today have the same delusion, doing their best to "jail and kill" as many ministries as they can that they believe are working for the enemy, when all the while they themselves are doing the enemies work. They believe they are in the will of God when they persecute and resist "him whom God sends", whether apostle or prophet, regardless, it is the Holy Spirit they are resisting. Jesus said whoever doesn't receive him whom he sends, they are rejecting Jesus himself. When James and John said to the Lord "wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did?"(Luke 9:54), they were not walking in the right spirit but following another spirit, one that says, if they aren't a part of us, if they aren't with us, they must be against us, they must not be of God, and we must kill them. Jesus replied "ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of" (Luke 9:55). Many in church leadership today do not know "what manner of spirit they are of". How pastors and leaders in localized churches today receive apostles and prophets whom God sends will reveal what spirit they are of. God is the only one that has the right to call someone false, to call them a "Nabal" but when he does so, he will use those who are his, those who are true, to do it even as he used Peter to expose Ananias and Sapphira. No wonder the false in the church hate and fear the true so much, for the arrival of the true heralds the end of their reign of deception. All the deceivers, all the "hirelings" and "wolves in sheep's clothing" guarding the flock will be exposed for who they really are. EVEN THEN a certain amount of people will still choose to remain in deception and bondage to them. Some will choose to follow their pastor or church to Hell, rather than leave them.
