Why Do Westerners Refuse To Listen To
Their Godly Prophets ?
I remember very well the day that
America's greatest-Biblical and Godly Prophet died. His name was
David Wilkerson. It was a very sad day when I and several million
other true believers in Christ Jesus of the Bible learned of brother
David's death. Pastor Wilkerson often spoke of things that were
related and relevant to what God's people and the world was suffering
from because of unrepentant sin in their lives. Frequently in brother
Wilkerson's messages from in and outside of the pulpit, you would see
and hear his weeping for America and the world that often was then,
as still does today go it's own way rather than following Jesus Christ
of the Bible. Everyone of David Wilkerson's messages were filled with
Godly love for people and always rightly connected and approximately
related to Bible Scripture as the source of how ignoring God's Word
was directly related to our suffering. In nearly every message, he
also made sure to give a call to repentance so that every person,
every community, every nation would have the blessed hope of
restoration and salvation through Jesus Christ of the Bible.
Brother David is gone now...gone on to
Heaven, and with the Lord. God has not abandoned us, He still gives
each nation Prophets to speak to His people despite David's death and
even today, other minor prophets still remain. These Prophets are
both men and women who are in right and true relationship with Jesus
Christ. They put forth the very word they hear from the Holy Spirit
into the ears whom they were anointed and appointed unto speak. Of
course, satan always has his false prophets in pulpits across
America, Europe, Australia, and the entire world as well. Satan has
his imitators and liars, and until he is cast into the Lake Of Fire,
satan will always have his people to act, lie and lead people astray.
For the benefit of not only Christians but also the world, we need to
hear from God's people, and refuse the voice of satan's people. We
need the Prophets of today, probably now more than at any other time
in human history. Without those who hear directly from God and speak
the word's they are anointed to speak, a nation will instead listen
to satans' false prophets and in the end, head to, or continue on a
path of suffering and eventual destruction such as we see so many
doing presently in the West. God's Prophets are sometimes pastors,
ordained Christian ministers, but more than likely, a true
God-ordained Prophet is a man and or woman who holds a deep
relationship with Jesus Christ, and as well, carries a humble spirit
about and regarding their gifting to speak for Him. Unlike satan's
spokespersons, as well as many selfish and title loving “christians”
and “churches” of the West today, most real and God-ordained
prophets do not put the title of “Prophet” before their name and
make public spectacle of themselves as such. Real Prophets are not
interested in having others glorifying them, no... real and Godly
Prophets always walk humbly as servants of the Most High, and do His
work by speaking to, and whom God tells them to speak. The glory is
never self-seeking or self-glorifying for any real Prophet of God(or Christians), their words are always spoken from, and glory given to
Christ Jesus.
So As I asked in the title of this
article... “Why Do Westerners Refuse To Listen To Their Godly
Prophets ?” As I and others see it, the answer to that question and
reasons are actually three fold from our Biblical-vantage point, and
are shared and listed below...
Number One ,
God has his Prophets, and satan has his. In today's
world filled with crisis after crisis. Obviously something has gone
very wrong in our world. We need to hear and heed the messages and
warnings that God's Prophets share with us to help us restore peace.
If you hear the voices of God's Prophets today, they are loud with
warnings towards all people who walk this Earth. Are Prophetic words
always that of “warning”? No, but in today's world of many catastrophic dilemmas due to so many also ignoring God's Word, real
and Biblical Prophets these days are appropriately giving warnings to
all to “repent.” While God's Prophets speak of warnings of
tragedy if we do not repent of our sin(individually and corporately), there are at the same time, satan's people and false
prophets at the same time informing you and I to “just relax,
remain calm, everything is alright”, also...“it will all work out
in the end”, “just get along”, “just pray”, “coexist”,
“God will take care of it”, “just love everyone”, “agree
with political correctness”, compromise”, etc. Here lies the problem for most Americans and those who live in the West pertaining
to why many in the West ignore God's Prophets... Folks in the world
and also in the “church” as well don't want to hear about (as
David Wilkerson put it) “Gloom and Doom.” Seemingly, many in the
Church chase after the “ear tickler's that tell them things
opposite or not in the Bible. Seemingly as well, most in the West
either have the inability to differentiate between the voices of God's
people, verses satan's. To think of the Billions of people around the
world who are not only hearing satan's fake prophets telling them,
“just be happy”, but that they also actually listen to that false
hope messages and follow the devil's advice as well, makes me
absolutely ill to my stomach. Folks with these types of attitude
reminds me of the Bible passage where in 1Thesalonians 5:3, The
Apostle Paul writes and warns, “When they shall say, 'There is
peace and quiet', then suddenly destruction shall arise upon them as
labor pains upon a pregnant woman, and they shall not escape.”
Think about this; Billions of people in the West right this very
moment are greatly endangered of allowing themselves to be thrown into
Hell because they cannot nor will not properly discern the voice of
God through His Prophets and instead are looking to and listening to
the voice of satan's people which always leads to dire consequences,
even death..
Number Two,
The “It's all about me” attitude has absolutely infiltrated,
overtaken
and overwhelmed many Western Cultures. Psychiatrists
and Psychologists term
such attitudes
of
“self” as “Narcissism”,
but the Bible plainly calls it “vanity.” Whatever
you want to call it, there are
Bible verses that speaks of being vain and the bad fruit of having
such
self-centered
attitudes.
One verse that is probably the
most
relatable to this article and
it's subject matter,
can be found in Ecclesiastes
2:1 which
read's,
“I said in my heart, 'Come now, I will test you with pleasure;
enjoy yourself.' But behold, this also was vanity.” What
the writer of Ecclesiastes is saying in
that Bible Scripture also speaks
to us today. Filling
one's self with pleasure rather than pleasing God is a huge problem
not only in the World, but also in many churches in the West as well.
Satanic teachings of
“It's all about me” types
of false doctrines find's itself in
the church and being taught as
“the
prosperity gospel”, “Once saved, always saved”, “Calvinism”,
“the social gospel” and other false teachings where “self”
and “I
can do what I want no
matter what,
Jesus still loves me” attitude
has
sadly
replaced
the true Gospel of Jesus Christ and Him crucified(for the atonement
and forgiveness of our sins, a completed and finished work). It's
bad enough that millions and millions of religionists
who wrongly call themselves
“Christians”
believe the devil's indoctrinations such
as the requirement of
“works for salvation”, that on top of that, self centered attitudes
of replacing Jesus Christ with “self”(selfishness),
making
self
as god,
has infiltrated
and overtaken much of
the Body of
Christ as well.
Number
Three,
The real and Biblical Church has failed to do it's job to evangelize,
equip,
teach
the Bible without error(without
satan's influence)
and be a major influence in the world in
the West and around the world as well.
Sounds like
an overwhelming amount of fault on
the church's
fault right
? Well, it is. The Body of Christ which does not exclude what I call
“lay people” in the church(everyday believers in Christ Jesus of
the Bible) are
largely at fault for the world not paying attention to, and listening
to the voice of God's Prophets today. What do we expect though ? Look
at how the world laughs at Christians still,
yet today because
of so many so called “Godly” men and women who especially in the
latter half of the Twentieth Century, had television and radio
ministries, but either fell from grace or were not exposed for being
frauds in the first place. Why
did this occur ? because
no one held
accountable
those
women
and
men
who
fell from grace or
were fake minister
and or evangelists to begin with.
Most non-Christians today
treat
real Bible
believing Christians
with
disdain and are even
laugh
at Christians
as
well. Also,
when Godly Prophets speak they are ignored because
of the lack of real repentance on
the part of
those “TV and
radio Preachers.”
The
church “screwed-it-up” as far as their witness before the world
and because of that, much of the West will not listen to God's
Prophets. Personally,
I
hear negative
remarks all the time because of the damage done by unrepentant TV and
Radio Preachers and fake Christians.
The
fall-out from those who have ruined God's name because of the acts of
false Christian “leaders” is
huge. You
don't have to talk to many about Christ before you begin
to hear...
“All you
want is money”, and they
that make such statements only reflect the attitudes of
many
that did fall from God's grace or were fake TV Preachers. All
they did and or still “want is
just money.”
But the bottom
line so to speak as to why many in the West are not listening to
Goldy Prophets
is this, there is very little accountability for so called “pastors”,
“preachers”,”ministers” and “prophets” still
these
days, and it shows by the way
the world treats and
reacts to even
real Biblical Christians today.
Should we really be surprised or shocked when these aforementioned
“Christian Leaders” acted
badly, that now
also the
world greatly rejects Christ and refuses to listen to God's Prophets
? In case you were unaware, the
World is watching and counting all the Marijuana smoking
“Christians”, the Alcoholic “Christians”, the selfish
“Christians”, the divorcing
“Christians”, the
hypocritical “Christians”, etc. I'm not trying to be
(non-biblically)judgmental
here. No, I will be the first to tell you as also
the
Apostle Paul first
stated
in the Word, “I am the chief of all sinners”, but I have enough
smarts and God given intelligence to know that when I sin, I quit
doing it and repent quickly!
Apparently most “Christians” also
refuse
to listen to Godly Prophets and
those of the World are asking themselves, “Why should I listen to
those so called Godly Prophets, the Christians don't listen to them,
why should I ?”
God's
Prophets are speaking to all of us right now. Their voices are
an
echo of what God's Word states
and declares for us in the West(the
entire world)today.
It's not hard, nor difficult to see that the world is a mess and
getting worse.
Even some
of those
who belong to the World
are
able to clearly see that.
My question however
for
you as a “Christian” however is this... If the people
who are of the World
can
see
the entire
planet in turmoil,
and even some of them are
hearing
and agreeing
with what God's Prophets are saying and warning us of, why aren't you
as
well ?
Biblical History teaches us(who will learn)the lesson for not
listening to His prophets. I
do hope and pray that those in the West stop listening to satan's
unrepentant
spokespeople,
and instead, begin to listen to God's Prophets. Haven't you had
enough chaos in your life yet ?
Jeremiah
29:17-19
“Thus
says the Lord
of hosts, behold, I am sending on them sword, famine, and pestilence,
and I will make them like vile figs that are so rotten they cannot be
eaten.I will pursue them with sword, famine, and pestilence, and will
make them a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse, a
terror, a hissing, and a reproach among all the nations where I have
driven them, because they did not pay attention to my words, declares
the Lord,
that I persistently sent to you by my servants the prophets, but you
would not listen, declares the Lord.”
