EQUIPPED WITH THE WORD OF GOD
“Every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.”
(Philippians 2:11)
Being equipped with the Word of God is a process of continuous study, unceasing prayer, and a reverent desire to understand God's Nature, Spirit, commands and statutes, as well as His expectation of how His Gospel is to be spread. Because God holds us responsible for the souls of others, it is more than imperative that what we teach is scriptural, correct, true, and under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
“But as touching brotherly love you need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one and another. And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in Macedonia: but we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more; and that ye study to be quiet, and to work your own business, and to work with your own hands,as we commanded you; that ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.”
(2 Timothy 4: 9-12)
In order to accomplish this, we must understand the nature of God (to the extent that we can, with our finite minds) and develop a very personal relationship with Him. It is well
to praise and worship God corporately, but each man must seek his own personal relationship with God in (reverent) fear and trembling. We must praise and worship Him individually as we develop a very personal relationship with Him. We must get to know God through His unchanging Word, understand His plan for mankind's salvation, and His methodology in seeing His plan to fruition. In addition to this, we must understand the

nature of Jesus and strive to be like Him in kindness, long suffering, and great love for one another. We must also understand Jesus' role in God's plan --pre, and especially
post crucifixion. Studying God's word in scripture by Holy Ghost power is key to acquiring, and understanding this knowledge, so that we may become equipped with Holy Ghost Power.
“And He humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which ye knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that He might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth
of the Lord doth man live.”
(Deuteronomy 8:3)
Many mainstream churches teach doctrines that are not of God, but doctrines of men. It is more than grandiose to believe that followers should follow one man's interpretation of the gospel, as if the Holy Spirit does not speak to anyone who seeks Him. This is a tactic to control the followers, and oppresses their zeal to seek God independently, personally, and outside of the pews of the church. It reeks of diabolical power, control, and illicit intent. More often than not, that one man is under the control of the evil one. What better tactic than to impose a religious system that impedes the followers from seeking the company of God personally, and outside of the church. The Holy Spirit will
speak to anyone who seeks Him with a sincere heart. His knowledge and interpretation of the expectations of the Father represents a giant, whereas man's represents an ant!

Equipped With the Word of God
“For false christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders,to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.”
(Mark 13: 22)
“A false witness shall perish….”
(Proverbs 21: 28)
Most religious organizations keep Jesus on the cross of Calvary. Indeed He did go to the cross because of His love for the Father, and His love for us, but we need to evolve past this. Give thanks and praise for what He did for us on Calvary, then move on to worship, and understand the agenda of the Risen Christ. He is no longer in the role of the Lamb of God, Who takes away the sins of the world (crucifixion role); He is now the risen Majestic, Conquering Lion of Judah (post crucifixion role), Who will lead God's heavenly battle against the devil, his minions, and all manner of evil. We need to ask the Holy Spirit what our assignment is in preparation for this battle. This is done by praying the will of the Holy Spirit to the Majestic, Conquering Lion of Judah. When we remain fixated on the cross, and cannot move to worship the Risen Christ, we impede our ability to become equipped Spiritually to prepare for battle. No doubt the devil delights in this type of Christian stagnation. The enemy cares not whether you go to church, sing, dance, pray before statues and pictures, or participate in church activities, as long as you are not receiving the truth, and are not actively participating in God's battle plan

and His plan for mankind's salvation. Often church leaders plans are not in sync with the plan of God. They often loose sight of God's Divine plan with too many “church” activities, not necessarily of a spiritual nature, too many apologetic
activities, and too much competition to see who can build the largest and most lavish church. All of this is not for God's glory, but is for man's vanity. It is not the size of the church or how lavish it is that matters, its whether or not the Holy Ghost enters there! Does the Holy Ghost enter into your church!?
“Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.
(Matthew 28:20)
When we continue to kneel and pray in front of crucifixes, and statues, fall asleep in church, and never commit to evangelism, and service to those in need, what good are we in spreading the news of the gospel, listening for the directives from the Holy Spirit, and becoming an active participant in God's plan? The enemy relishes this, it fits directly in his plan without any effort on his part. As leaders, we must wake up those that are asleep, both literally and figuratively, and encourage action on their parts, involving them in God's plan. The churches need some shaking up!!! We must get back on task --soul saving, and building God's army on earth! Nothing else matters!
