Accurate Discernment of the times.

Accurate Discernment of the times..An Apostolic perspective
Posted by pstmaxwell

A time will come when people will not listen to accurate teachings. Instead, they will follow their own desires and surround themselves with teachers who tell them what they want to hear. 4 People will refuse to listen to the truth and turn to myths. (2 Tim 4: 3-4 GOD’S WORD)

You’re going to find that there will be times when people will have no stomach for solid teaching, but will fill up on spiritual junk food — catchy opinions that tickle their fancy. 4 They’ll turn their backs on truth and chase mirages. (2 Tim 4:3-4 MSG)

If we can discern the times, then we know what to do to birth that which God wants to do in this season. It is amazing what time we are in, ministries, fellowships and groups are multiplying everywhere and at the same time the fruit of sonship is diminishing.

Apostle Paul shares with Timothy what time we are in, a time when people will not listen to accurate teachings, where people follow their own desires and surround themselves with teachers who tell them what they want to hear, people refuse to listen to the truth but turn to Myths.

It becomes imperative for us to understand this season and Judge ourselves and embrace Gods mind

What kind of teachings are you listening to? We must discern what we are been taught from the scriptures are we listening to accurate teachings? Is what we are been taught pointing us to Christ or Man, is it the gospel of the Kingdom and her advancement on the earth? Or an evacuation, fear based, torment filled gospel. Like the Message translation said we must develop a stomach for solid teaching and break away from spiritual junk food.

Whose desires? Are we following our desires Or the Lords? When we are young in Him, we do what we like but when we become matured sons, we only have one trade make we are LED BY HIS SPIRIT. And as we are led by His Spirit, delighting ourselves in Him, our His desires now become our Desire.

Surrounding ourselves with whom? Do we allow God to lead us to teachers he has set in place to teach us, or we surround ourselves with teachers whom we desire? I believe there are certain ministries and associations the Father would lead us to that becomes our “company” , in this season we must not just choose teachers, we must allow the Father to lead us to the stream where we would drink from.

Truth or Myths? What exactly are we listening to TRUTH or MYTHS, there are many traditions of men that are been taught as truth (commandments from God) they are just myths, the fact that a message has been long proclaimed in the body of Christ does not make it the TRUTH. If it is not TRUTH it is not Truth. We must not turn our backs on the truth and chase mirages. Check what you believe.

God’s Grace.
