Get up, eat and drink as long is your walk


Get up, eat and drink as long is your walk

And the angel of the Lord came a second time and touched him, and said, Arise and eat, because you will be very long way. I Rs 19.7

Who ever heard of the prophet Elijah? One of the largest and most powerful prophets that God raised in the world. This mysterious man appeared in the most turbulent period in the history of Israel. The prophets of Jehovah were killed, the remains Mirko with evil people and limp between two opinions, it was there that God raised up Elijah in response to this national idolatry. Jezebel, who was married to Ahab, introduced through his prophets employed by her to worship the demon-god Baal and his wife Asherah mythical. These Canaanite gods now should be worshiped by all the people that Jehovah himself with a strong arm freed from Egyptian slavery. Heresy and apostasy dotted the northern kingdom and no one had stood up to announce the truth, even afraid of the consequences. It was at that time that God raised suddenly one of the most powerful prophets of the Old Testament.

Does this period was not similar to ours? When we now see many evangelicals do not worship the pictures like Baal, but the people and even ministries? Believers who die by their leaders, preachers and singers. Believers who faithfully follow these "stars gosp" are not acting the same way as Israel in the days of Elijah? Did not we see the doctrine of Jezebel going quietly in our churches? Jezebel is in our midst and we are not realizing that their poison is spreading more than the new influenza spreads around the world. And many men of God and entire ministries are being destroyed by pride, greed and arrogance.

It is at this very moment that God is raising up their "Elijah"

When Satan was thinking that would kill suffocated the people of God through the mud of idolatry, God responds to him with the prophet of fire! Elias appears to challenge Ahab and the prophets of Baal by the power of the Word of God. God is raising up men who will challenge the foundations of sin in evangelical circles. There is a Mount Caramel expecting these false "men of God" and their doctrines of demons to show what really is the power of God. On Mount Moriah, God will provide, on Mount Caramel will manifest!

The first attitude was to show Elijah to King Ahab that rain and the weather was not in control of Baal, or agriculture and fertility were in the power of Asherah. When Elijah prophesies that it will rain on the earth according to his own word, he gives a sharp blow this couple of demons! The world needs such men, who fear only God and to his word. We are tired of hearing beautiful words when many flock to hell in our own churches.

Jezebel was so wicked, brazen and bold in malignancy so far as to build a temple to the god Baal demon. Ahab was certainly the most idolatrous king who occupied the throne of Israel, only joined in the wicked and evil men like him.

The challenge was set, the god who made the fire come down from heaven, as God would be put. The prophets of Baal cried and nothing happened. Elijah prayed and fire came down from heaven, consuming the victim, the water and leaving the dry land before. Given this demonstration all the people worshiped God on earth bowing and saying that only Jehovah is God and the rest was negligible false gods. All the prophets of Baal who were present were killed and Elijah went to Ahab and show once again that the control of rain was in the hands of the Lord said to Ahab that it would rain a lot after three years of drought. And so it happened, Elijah and entreated God sent rain that flooded whole place.

After spiritual breakthroughs, always come from hell retaliate

Jezebel to hear from Ahab that Elijah had sent a threat to Elijah, and this fear of dying as the prophets of Baal were killed, fled into the wilderness. Know that before any progress and spiritual growth that you have, the devil is not pleased to rise to it will prevent. So it was with Joshua, when his campaign advanced by the promised land, five kings came together to frustrate him. But as the power of God was able to stop the sun and moon to Joshua triumph in battle, so God will be able to do things unimaginable to grant full and absolute victory in those who fear him.

It is true that the enemy gets up, but it is certain that he will fall! Thus in the life of Jeremiah, he should speak all that God would send, and that many would be angry with him, but God assured him (Jeremiah 1:19) - And they shall fight against you but not prevail against thee; for I am with thee, saith the Lord, to thee. No matter the price we pay for our faithfulness to God, what matters is that the name of God must be exalted. (Isaiah 54:17) - that is formed against thee shall prosper and every tongue which rises against you in court thou shalt condemn This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.

There are times when the believer wants to escape

Thus the life of Elijah, he fled from Jezebel. Thus the life of Moses, the greatest spiritual leader that Israel already had also wanted to escape the call of God in your life. (Exodus 4:10, 11) - Moses said unto the LORD, O my Lord! I am not an eloquent man, not of yesterday or the day before yesterday, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: for I am slow of speech and tongue. And he said unto the LORD, Who made the man's mouth? or who maketh the dumb, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Not I the LORD? Do not be like Moses, according to his own ability, look at the ability of the God who calls you. Do not look for you, always look for one that you listed! (Hebrews 12:2) - Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the hand of the throne of God. Obedience to God's call will bring great excitement as a consequence of God!

Do not do like Jonah fled to Tarshish when God sent to Nineveh, as God always knows where you go, even when you have not even thought of going. Elijah fled into the desert, but when tired of running away, found a juniper tree, where he rested under its shade. Elias had no idea, but Juniper is a type of tree that is not born in the desert, juniper that was already there even before Elijah to flee there, it was a divine providence in his life.

God provided what you will need during your walk. What is providence? Providence only belongs to God, because He alone knows the things that will happen before they happen. God's providence is the way supernatural or even natural that God uses to preserve the lives of his elect. When Jonah was thrown into the sea, had prepared a fish to take you to the place where God had sent him. This is providence. (Matthew 17:27) - But for those not offend them, go to the lake and throw the hook and take the first fish you catch, and opening his mouth, you will find a stater: take it, and gives a me and thee. A fish with a coin in its mouth when it needed just to pay taxes is welfare.

God will act in extraordinary ways to assist you even when you try to get away from calling it for your life.

We are experiencing times of great growth
Evangelical churches in Brazil. Everywhere appear
new ministries with varying classifications and
denominations. Churches large and sumptuous have been
built and empires church is
expand to other countries. Truly,
crowds have gathered to worship, praise and listen
eloquent preaching. Never before in the history of the church
many Christian churches were opened and the gospel was so
preached as today. The media,
as radios and TV's are opening the doors for
many ministries that are able to afford the
thousands of dollars charged for a few minutes to
into the air. However, I see that the evangelical church
Brazil is in the hills, boasting to have them
won, while in the valleys, drugs, alcohol,
prostitution of such places are a hell on earth.

(Judges 4:1) - And the children of Israel again
what was evil in the eyes of the Lord, after his death
Ehud.

Brazil has no corruption, plunges into idolatry and
church enriched by political agreements with the corrupt and
with the devil himself, when they admit in their midst the
terrible wounds of heretical doctrines and theology
prosperity. Therefore, (Judges 4:2) - and sold them the
LORD in the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, who reigned in
Hazor, and Sisera was the captain of his army, which
dwelt in the Goyim Gentiles. Therefore, we
losing battles in the land of the enemy, that is, in
slums in the alleys and lanes of this lost world and
also within our own churches, when we
complacent with the rich wolves who sin and ruthless
with the poor sheep that fail. Or when we hay ace
sheep and goats the grass paying fortunes in caches.
That shows when we admit our pulpits and let
worldliness into our churches. When I see all
these evils, I realize that God sold our country in hand
the "Jabims.

The Israelites had conquered the mountains, where
raised altars and praise high praises to God,
however, the valleys left in the hands of enemies. Hence,
the enemy is entrenched: (Judges 4:3) - ... because he
had nine hundred chariots of iron, and for twenty years
mightily oppressed the children of Israel. But perhaps
you ask me, and what that has to do with us? Will
to see that many young people using drugs in the alleys
dark, or when we see dozens of prostitutes and
transvestites street corners and sidewalks of our streets not
are seeing the cars's iron devil ruling the
spiritual valleys of our city? Does the church
today also do not forget to win these vouchers? And
Meanwhile the iron chariots of violence, hatred and
immorality brings terror wherever they go.

Are we even fighting as an army
triumph of God, limited to our services full
high praise, while the other side of the street the devil
replaced with their chariots of iron destroying lives and
dragging thousands to hell?

(Judges 4:3) - And the children of Israel cried to
LORD ...

The best translation of the Hebrew text shows us that
they shouted, they cried to the Lord for help and assistance.
Hearing this cry, a shout came from heaven by Deborah:
(Judges 4:4-5) - And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of
Lapidoth, she judged Israel at that time. She dwelt
is under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel
in the mountains of Ephraim, and the children of Israel came up to
it to court. Many went to her to hear a message
genuine, it was the church of the palm of Deborah. No
had padded seats or air conditioning, but
just a genuine message appealed to the people
that place.

Comfort, beauty, well-prepared sermon and a beautiful
oratory are good and nice, but not what really
matter, but a message that penetrates the deepest
the cravings and thoughts of man. The people do not need
hear a nice message full of emotion and eloquence,
they are able to go to the highest mountain
under the hot sun to hear a message of
power that comes from truly high and sublime
throne of God. (Matthew 11.7-10) "And they departed,
Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John, What
you came to the desert? a reed shaken by the wind? Yes,
that you came? a man clothed in soft raiment? Those who are clothed
soft clothing are in kings' houses. But what went ye
see? prophet? Yes, I say to you, and more than
prophet Why is this of whom it is written, Behold
with thee I send my messenger, who shall prepare before
from you your way.

John did not preach a message of victory and no financial
full of the miraculous cures to attract
crowd, preached only two things: repentance and
coming of the Messiah. He does not adorn his preaching to
please the most rich and powerful, before denouncing the
their sins, as it did with Herod and Herodias,
denouncing the adultery of both, even costing your
life (Matthew 14.3).

When the church learn from the palm tree of Deborah
or with the church's voice crying in the wilderness? Cars
iron reap the devil lives and care in
sumptuous build churches or criticize our own
colleagues in ministry. People look at us and
see as fanatics who gather to shout and preach
messages that do not fill the existential void in
and neither of them free of power and terror of cars
iron devil.

They look and say, "They are a bunch of stupid people that
preach about a God who is only within their
churches and that only bless those who give tithe. "
"Where is their God when a robber takes life
of a family? "or" God can make them
something for my son who is on drugs? "is the
they say.

(Judges 4:8) - Then Barak said to her: If thou art with me,
I will, but if you are not with me, I will not.

Barak, whose name means "lightning", was called by
Deborah and encouraged by her to go to battle
cars of Jabin and Sisera. The instructions were
Categorical: (Judges 4:6-7 - And he sent for Barak
son of Abinoam of Kedeshnaphtali, and said to him:
Perhaps the Lord God of Israel did not order
saying, Go and draw toward mount Tabor, and take
thee ten thousand men of Naphtali and of the children
Zebulun? And I will draw unto thee to the brook Kishon, the
Sisera, captain of Jabin's army, with their cars,
and his crowd, and will give it in your hand.

God gives us the strategy to overcome these cars
iron devil, "and take with thee ten thousand men of the children
Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun? "First, we He
shows his army, and often their army is not
very numerous, and the army of Gideon. For
the victory was not recognized for their own
capacity but only for the outstretched hand of God.
In this case, God showed the army of brave men
who were willing to risk their lives to clean
the valleys of the enemies of God's people.

And I will draw unto thee to the river Kishon, Sisera,
captain of Jabin's army, with their cars, and with
multitude, and will give it in your hand. (vers.7) In addition to the
show his army that is trained in the trenches of
tribulations of life, he tells us where we get victory:
The very ground of evil. And I think that slums
alleys with condominiums and avenues will be the field
battle of little more powerful army of God.

But this will only occur when the church is aware that
the honor and merits can not be given the eloquence of
preacher, the wisdom of his words and not be able
human to do things, but only to God who
guarantee victory.

(Judges 4:8) - Then Barak said to her: If thou art with me,
I will, but if you are not with me, I will not. And she said
I will surely go with thee, but not be for thine honor of
journey that, for the hand of a woman
LORD will sell Sisera. And Deborah arose, and went
with Barak to Kedesh.

Barak did not worry about the merit of victory would
him or Deborah, what mattered is that the victory would be
the people of God! The church needs to carve out his half the
selfishness and the exaltation of men. Whenever the
people leaving the church praising the preacher, or as it is
full of power, then we fail, but when the people
glorify God because God is in their midst or
Jesus is talking about, then yes we go for
war.
