Subject: SHEPHERDS OR TREASURERS? |
Bible Note: Jeremiah 23:1 Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the Lord. 2 Therefore thus saith the Lord God of Israel against the pastors that feed my people; Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, saith the Lord. SHEPHERDS OR TREASURERS? While praying this morning, I felt the Lord saying that his ministers that were called to shepherd his flock have left their positions and gone over into the place of the treasurer. Finances now have become the key issue of the flock, and not the nurturing and mentoring and equipping of the saints. As Judas, every thing that the Lord sees as needed for the hour is now debated from the treasurers view point as Judas did since he "held the bag". Each word from the Lord is now being sifted thru the mind of the treasurer... is it financially wise? We need to pray for fresh revelation to come upon the church... to do the work of the Father... not financial consultants. |
