John 3:5; Matthew 18:3; Luke 13:1-5; Ephesians 5:26; 1 Peter 1:23

The church of God on earth is in dire need of TRUE saints that can ‘pray up a storm’! Why?

The world is obviously in trouble and the church is not exempt. How did we get to this point? Why does it seem as if present day church is powerless? Holiness and righteousness seem outdated that many ‘Christians’ have become dancing acrobats and singing nightingales suddenly encapsulate in empty vessels clanging like shrieking cymbals.  

How did humanity degenerate to the point of calling GOOD evil and EVIL good?

The following bible texts give us a clue:

2 Timothy 3:1-17; 2 Peter 2:1; Matthew 24: 6,12;

1 Peter 4:1-7… 4.They think it is strange that you don't run with them into the same excess of riot, blaspheming:

Ezekiel 7:19

They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be as an unclean thing; their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels; because it has been the stumbling block of their iniquity.

Ezekiel 7:20

As for the beauty of his ornament, he set it in majesty; but they made the images of their abominations [and] their detestable things therein: therefore have I made it to them as an unclean thing.

Ezekiel 7:21

I will give it into the hands of the strangers for a prey, and to the wicked of the earth for a spoil; and they shall profane it.

Ezekiel 7:22

My face will I turn also from them, and they shall profane my secret [place]; and robbers shall enter into it, and profane it.

Ezekiel 7:23

Make the chain; for the land is full of bloody crimes, and the city is full of violence.

Ezekiel 7:24

Therefore I will bring the worst of the nations, and they shall possess their houses: I will also make the pride of the strong to cease; and their holy places shall be profaned.

Ezekiel 7:25

Destruction comes; and they shall seek peace, and there shall be none.

Ezekiel 7:26

Mischief shall come on mischief, and rumor shall be on rumor; and they shall seek a vision of the prophet; but the law shall perish from the priest, and counsel from the elders.

Ezekiel 7:27

The king shall mourn, and the prince shall be clothed with desolation, and the hands of the people of the land shall be troubled: I will do to them after their way, and according to their own judgments will I judge them; and they shall know that I am the LORD. 

In Conclusion

John 17:17; 2 Corinthians 5:17

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect… Romans 12:2
