A Revelation

Interrupting Service

Do you recognize the errors in your own heart, in your own fellowship in your own midst? Most likely not. This is why we are to be open to public rebuke, with hearts like the Ninevites, quick to repent in sackcloth and ashes, quick to respond in brokenness and contriteness of heart.

Consider how far you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first. If you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place. Revelation 2:5

A Revelation of the Scroll

He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. He stood up to read…Luke 4:16

Understand how many bristle at hearing God’s WORD when He interrupts their activities, their religious acts of service.

Because your heart was responsive and you humbled yourself before God when you heard what he spoke against this place and its people, and because you humbled yourself before me and tore your robes and wept in my presence, I have heard you, declares the Lord. 2 Chronicles 34:27

These things are not distant from us. They are abundant and right in our own midst.

So when you are assembled and I am with you in spirit, and the power of our Lord Jesus is present…1 Corinthians 5:4

Error abounds right within, and we must cease our fine sounding arguments and services, and return to the LORD in keeping with His WORD.

What then shall we say, brothers and sisters? When you come together, each of you has a hymn, or a word of instruction, a revelation, a tongue or an interpretation. Everything must be done so that the church may be built up. But everything should be done in a fitting and orderly way. 1 Corinthians 14:26‭, ‬40

When you hear and see such things, recognize the LORD Himself Who walks in the midst of the camp.
