“Your success can never lie in the things of this world, because you are not of this world says God. If you can truly understand this, it will make things so much easier for you. For those that focus their thoughts around the earthly, the temporal, their achievements and rewards will be taking place in the here and now, in the earthly realm, and as such will be temporary in nature.
Maybe they will bring brief moments of joy and attention, leaving the flesh feeling satisfied, but to what end?
As you know, if those pursuits have added nothing to the platform established in 1 Corinthians 3 what is the point? This is all foolishness.
Look at what Solomon said about all of his wealth, all of his possessions, all of his achievements. Where is all that today? What has it profited him for even one second since he left the earthly realm? Yet the spiritual wisdom he acquired lives on. That door is still held wide open for those with the good sense to walk through it.
Think only from an eternal perspective says God. If you have grasped the truth in the fact that everything is Spiritual, everything is already taking place at an eternal level, you will realize that to think on any other level is a complete waste of time and a deception. It is the hardest thing for the human mind to embrace, that the world in which they live on the earth is merely a manifestation of the collective consciousness of all the people on the planet.
If chaos rule in their minds, what do you think would be most in evidence in their surroundings? If greed, money, power and self-promotion are the main focus of most of the ‘leaders’ in the so-called civilized world, what circumstances do you think that is going to create for the people that they are able to influence?
Do not forget that they will also be holding doors open, but woe to those that are pouring through those doors for they lead only to greater deception and for many, to total oblivion.
Be warned and spread the warning. There are many of My sheep that have gone astray and are lost beyond these doors says God. They are obviously still of the fold because My brand is upon them, but they have been made ineffective by the deception that is upon them. They need to shear off that tainted wool that is covering their spiritual eyes and return to the fold.
We are working on matters of eternal importance. There is no more time for experiments. To be set apart and separate, you have to be different from the world. I did not say to be ‘disguised’ in the world so that there is no discernible difference between you and the world.
I call you to leave behind the plans of men and the ways of the world and to follow My ways says God. Press forward and keep your eyes firmly focused on My truths and you will become blind to the lies of the world”.
