Subject: A Most Dangerous Thing
We, as Christians, are either going to be righteously motivated or
unrighteously motivated in ALL that we say or do. There are no other sources
of motivation! The whole basis of Satan's scheme against the Christian who
is truly seeking first the Kingdom (truly seeking the fulness of the
Father's will for their life and ministry) is to somehow keep them out of
their proper "Kingdom-positioning" in Christ. He has an intense desire to
keep the child of God in the wrong place at the wrong time - doing the wrong
thing. In other words, a place wherein they are "maintaining" unrighteous
motivation - for then he still has "control" over them and, thus, is
"enabled" to carry out his schemes against the true works of God through
them. This state of unrighteous motivation also keeps the child of God in
perpetual ignorance concerning Satan's schemes - both where they are
concerned personally and also concerning the corporate church. It is a most
dangerous thing for a child of God to be found serving Satan and not even be
aware of it (2 Timothy 2:19-26)! Ultimately, without a deep and thorough
repentance - the one that continues to align themselves with the lies of the
Evil One, shall "perish" (expire, ebb, fade, wane) in the days ahead!

"I am calling you to make the revisions, says the Lord. You have pondered
the path of mediocrity and now it is time to move. Sometimes the recasting
will cause a shaking and a falling away. Be prepared for this, says the
Lord, but move forward. This is a time for extreme sensitivity to My Voice
and My Spirit and to move with intensity. The empowerment that is coming is
nothing less than supernatural. Stay humble before Me for I am lifting you
higher and higher into My purposes and plans for thee. Therefore, you must
seek to please only Me and move only after you have saturated yourself in My
Presence," says the Lord.
