sincerity - word for 2010

Jer. 42:20 – In this passage the remnant of Judah was told that they “make a fatal mistake” when they ask for God’s will yet do not intend to obey it. This morning’s word is built upon this theme, and shows what affect our obedience has on the year 2010.

“Men take My word too casually, obeying it if they find it pleasing yet choosing not to believe what is uncomfortable to them. I train a man in obedience by speaking to him. Those of sincere heart will value My words and do them. It is a training I give, always with My eyes on the future. What does the future hold for My people in 2010?

For those who have listened and obeyed the words they sought Me for, these shall run through their trials swiftly. They shall not be dismayed at hardship for their faith has grown by their past obediences. Their sincerity has brought down the counsel of the heavens and I will walk with them.

But as always there will be insincere and greedy men who pick and choose which words of Mine they want to obey. They are not trained through obedience. Indeed, the very fact that they seek Me for My words and then reject them has set them up for receiving foolish counsel. When these men realize they have done foolishly they not only will suffer loss but will lack the training I sent them so that they might overcome. Therefore it is to their detriment that they ask with an insincere heart, not valuing My answer above their own will.

The year 2010 will show a great split because of these differences between the sincere and the insincere. The sincere will overcome, running through a troop and scaling walls. Look for their light to shine brighter as they exhibit true faith and wisdom. Many will be inspired to do exploits, setting people free. But the arrogant will become dim and be ineffective.”
