At once I thought back to Martin Luther’s day. And how the poor were giving their wages to the Catholic church because they believed that they’re giving would keep them or there loved ones out of hell. The church at that time had one of the most terrible money machines created and this was before credit cards. To some extent, credit card companies haven’t told you that your very soul was on the line if you don’t have a credit history.
There is victory and freedom here in this dark catacomb. The church can rise again from this place, but we must go back and face our fear. Own up to the fact that we have abused our money and privilege and placed a heavy burden on those who did not know God. We cannot earn our way to heaven. Because another way has already been made. Imagine paying for something your entire life, that you find out at the last minute was totally free. That you did not have to pay anything. Love is that way. Can’t you tell sometime when a friend or a family member is trying to earn your love or respect. Don’t you want to just put them at ease and tell them to stop earning it, because you would just give it for free. It’s the same way with God. I feel like he is just shouting from the rooftops, “STOP EARNING MY LOVE and just be loved by me.”
The sad part is this system still exists even with the buy the anointing programming in the pentecostal church. I know sometimes they are looking for a point of exchange but God never said he would charge for it. He loves people why would he make them pay for it.

Is this Real?
Believing that this life is not real- is a real problem. That there is some other place where we can actually be ourselves and live out our dreams is the “fog of war”. This lie diminishes the light of a whole generation who believe it to be true, that this life is not real.
To believe that this life is just a fantasy. That heaven or the next place is the only real place. I believe this kind of thing came out eastern mysticism. But this life is real. And God is real. And heaven and earth are real. And where I live right now, my light will shine.
I think this comes from where we have missed appointments and struggle to find our way back to the path. God loves us so, even when have been lost or led astray. God knows where we are.
But to doubt that this is really happening is like wound of disillusionment. And this comes from satan that if we can believe this life is not real that we will have another chance to live somewhere else and be the persons that we want to be is false.
This is our one chance, to live now. I believe this life is real right now. And I feel like my little fisher price flash light has just turned on.
