Destroying Idols

By
by Prophet Dr. David Owuor

THE SIXTH REASON for which the GODHEAD chooses to come down and visit the earth HIMSELF IN PERSON, is for purposes of uncovering the vanity and emptiness of human idol worship and such shameful idolatry to total destruction. We are reminded here of when the GODHEAD visited Israel at her most desperate hour and brought down dagon, thereby breaking him down into smaller unutilizable and unworshippable pieces.
 
The Ark in Ashdod and Ekron 
 
1 After the Philistines had captured the ark of God, they took it from Ebenezer to Ashdod. 2 Then they carried the ark into Dagon’s temple and set it beside Dagon. 3 When the people of Ashdod rose early the next day, there was Dagon, fallen on his face on the ground before the ark of the Lord! They took Dagon and put him back in his place. 4 But the following morning when they rose, there was Dagon, fallen on his face on the ground before the ark of the Lord! His head and hands had been broken off and were lying on the threshold; only his body remained
(1 Samuel 5:1-4).
 
In the present-day generation, there has been a serious avalanche of idol worship that has not spared the church too. This kind of humiliating apostasy of idol worship has in essence gotten its way right into the house of the LORD.
 
The love of money and the gospel of prosperity have crafted themselves into a beautiful casting of gold that is both pleasing to the lustful eye and also tempting to touch. The duo of the love of money and worldliness have unsurprisingly coalesced to form the biggest golden calf in today's church of Christ. It is as though every christian believer is today in a dash to get wealthy and live well on this earth, by centering the love of money in their hearts.
 
This idol worship has today overtaken the worshipping of JEHOVAH in the modern-day churches, and essentially accelerated the decay of apostasy. Tragically enough, two blind cannot lead each other!
 
It is saddening that this fall of idol worship has not only struck the Altar of the LORD, but also flourish in the tender hearts within the congregation. As a consequence, no one at the pulpit seems to rebuke sin anymore, neither do they see the urgency for calling for a reformation in the house of the LORD. This has resulted into an escalation of sexual immorality that has gone virtually unchallenged in the presentday House of the LORD.
 
The GODHEAD on that December 31st, 2012 must have decided that enough is enough! This is what caused HIM to come down HIMSELF as the GODHEAD in order to bring down this dagon that the church had so much cherished and endeared her heart to.
 
In such an encounter in the days of old, things went south and it ended up with dagon being struck into virtually unworshippable pieces!
 
If there was a place at which to illustrate the jealously of the GODHEAD over the hearts of HIS people, then this would be it. In this way, the LORD is basically saying that the brutality of the enemy over the hearts of HIS people is totally unacceptable in HIS Kingdom and that from time immemorial, the hearts of the believers indeed belonged to HIM, and HIM alone! That fact is unquestionable.

2 Masters

By
2 Masters Deut. 18:14  -  'For these nations, which thou shalt possess, hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but as for thee, the LORD thy God hath not suffered thee so to do.   One of the main reasons Saints of God today are not being blessed is because they are serving 2 masters. And when I say blessed, I'm not talking about money! Atheists, agnostics, homosexuals, luciferians, etc. all can have money without being blessed of God, so get that out of your head. We have been programmed to hear the word blessing and automatically reach in our wallets and pockets, but working will get you money. God does not have to shovel out cash because he doesn't have cash, men do! So, work and you will havemoney! But when I say blessing, I'm talking about, your children being free from the devils strongholds, your marriage being sound and loving, your home being free from witchcraft, your possessions being safe from robbers and ...

Open Heaven

By
by Prophet Dr. David Owuor TO DRAW AN UNDERSTANDING  on this novel segment on the visitation of the GODHEAD, it is indeed indispensable  that we examine one other aspect relating to such a monumental visitation upon the face of the earth. Whenever the GODHEAD chooses to leave HIS dwelling in heaven and come down upon HIS people, the most inevitable occurrence that can not be precluded from any engagement underscoring it, is the fact that such an occurrence always invariably leads to an OPEN HEAVEN over the church. We are vividly reminded here when the LORD Jesus took the three confidants who were close to HIS heart up the Mountain of Transfiguration. The visitation that accrued  thereon  became a monumental milestone whose bearing continue to ramify the hearts of the believers owing to the fact that it was at that summit that the Perfect Lamb...
