SO SHALL MY WORD BE THAT GOES FORTH ... FROM MY MOUTH,  IT SHALL NOT RETURN TO ME VOID BUT IT SHALL ACCOMPLISH WHAT I PLEASE AND IT SHALL PROSPER IN THE THING FOR WHICH ... I SENT IT ..........................ISAIAH 55:11.

O, FAITHLESS GENERATION

It is either He is Lord or we are Lord and as far as I can see, in the church structures today, the latter is more applicable.

Isaiah the prophet tells us it is His word and it shall accomplish His purposes, this is the complete opposite to the word of faith teaching that many hold fast to in hope of grandeur. Tommy Tenny, the author of the book .. The God Chasers .. said in his book

ARE YOU TIRED OF HANDING OUT TRACTS, KNOCKING ON DOORS AND GETTING NOWHERE?

This is the attitude of one of the highly recommended ministers in our world today and Jesus word is fulfilled once again .. many shall fall away from the faith. The getting nowhere syndrome, is easily identified by lack of real faith in the Christ, an enormous hunger for recognition and acceptance, lack of humility, patience and perseverance. There are other defects but these are usually the most obvious and most common... 2 Timothy 4:3,4.

SYNDROME .. COMBINATION OF SEVERAL SYMPTOMS IN DISEASE OR SET OF SYMPTOMS OR CHARACTERISTICS .. Collins Australian Compact Dictionary.

The getting nowhere syndrome is one of the most fatal diseases that we face in the Church today. Who are its carriers?.. the so called leaders and mentors on the church stages... 2 Peter 2:1-3.

The falling away from the faith is none other than people esteeming their tactics, theories, skills, networking abilities, man pleasing doctrines and stage performances of greater worth and effectiveness than the simple living unadulterated word of God/Jesus of Nazareth.. 1 Peter 1:24,25.

The only time you are not .. getting anywhere, as they say .. is when you live for self, the world and Jesus is your sugar daddy and not your God and Master.

Isaiah the prophet says that when the word of God goes out it shall fulfil His plans not ours.. He is in control, we are His servants, friends. sheep, peoples, ministers in one way or another.. He is the potter we are the clay.

Now I know why Mr Tenney thinks as he does he hasn't found God, he's still chasing Him. My bible says, Jesus the great Pastor came to seek us/the lost, find us and save us from the wrath to come. Since He/Jesus found this grateful leper, I have been healed from the .. getting nowhere syndrome, for eternity. No longer do I conform with this world, I am in Christ, complete in Him/my God.

When your really going somewhere and getting somewhere your dead to self and alive to Christs commands, His word is your food, His will your delight. Amen.
