THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD I SHALL
NOT WANT.....PSALM 23:1. |
BAR CODES OR BIBLE FAITH?
I want to get back onto this word........faith.......a word so
often used by many people but how many really know what it means and how many actually
walk by faith and how many only think they walk by faith and how many simply just use the
word....faith....like dangling a carrot before the hungry and the ambitious?........2
Peter 2:1-3.
Bar codes and bible faith have no seemless connection that I can find within the writings
of the holy bible, then again I have only meditated upon the writings of my Lord Jesus for
around sixteen years......Acts 17:11.
Bar codes are those little things that you find on articles in department stores, shops
and places that require a certain amount of monies in exchange for that particular item.
Bar codes can also be found on the backs of books, videos, audios etc. I want to make
mention of a particular man who told of the great faith that a certain man had and some of
his faith filled journeys and when he passed me one of this faith man's books, the
first place I went to was the back cover.
And what did I find there?........a bar code.On seeing this I instantaniously saw
that this so called faith man was yet another minister selling the fables of men and
women. Real faith, bible believing faith would be ashamed to put a bar code, price tag on
a revelation from God.................2Corinthians 2:17.
How many so called greats of the faith have just blinded the religious world with their
fast talk and table manners while they have deceived the gullible church goers into
believing that they walk on this........seemingly high level of faith....yet the
simple bar code test exposes them to have no more faith in God almighty than those of the
world........................Galatians 6:12.
A simpleton could understand that if a man or a woman is going to spruik about how much
trust they have in God for their provision, protection, prosperity and fulfilment of their
calling, they can by no means place bar codes, price tags and red light specials on their
products, least they contradict themselves and be found liars......1Timothy 6:20, 21,
2Timothy 3:9.
Where abouts in the holy bible do you find any of the holy men and women of God selling
the revelations of the almighty saviour?.........Matthew 10:8.
Faith is men and women surrendered to God. Fear is men and women thinking that they will
lack even though God, the God they say they know so well and trust so much has told them
time and time again........the lord is your shepherd you shall not want / lack. There is
no place to hide when the light of his truth shines upon your life. Father has said that
their folly will be made manifest to all.
Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus just to take him at his word just to rest upon his
promise just to know......... thus says the lord!...........
Amen.
