Matthew 7:21

Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 

Your Word Father is more superior to any miracle, help me to remember this always. I just read a quote by Your servant A.W. Tozer who said "A church fed on excitement is no New Testament church at all. The desire for surface stimulation is a sure mark of the fallen nature, the very thing Christ died to deliver us from." There are charlatans and false teachers prophesying, casting out demons and performing wonders all the while getting rich from their schemes. Father, please grant us discernment in these days of illusions and delusions. Restore those who have been lured or are following after a false gospel. Remind those who are struggling that the little faith they have left is not no faith it is a faith that is ineffective, defective or deficient in some way. Reveal the hidden or blatant sin that is keeping them from the true Gospel. Some would have us believe that there is a demonic origin behind every sickness, but You have made a distinction between the sick and casting out spirits from those oppressed by demons. Strip the scales from our eyes, remove the callouses from our hearts so we may never hear depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness. Father, please forgive us for taking far to much delight in surface stimulation instead of being still, sitting at Your feet, living a quite life of devotion to You and You alone. In Jesus name I pray You will bless Your children today to remain strong, fighting the good fight of faith. Amen
