Eyesalve: An Unclean Place

By | Eyesalve

“Now if the plague comes back and breaks out in the house, after he has taken away the stones, after he has scraped the house, and after it is plastered, 44then the priest shall come and look; and indeed if the plague has spread in the house, it is an active leprosy in the house. It is unclean. 45And he shall break down the house, its stones, its timber, and all the plaster of the house, and he shall carry them outside the city to an unclean place. 46Moreover he who goes into the house at all while it is shut up shall be unclean until evening.” Lev. 14:43-46

 

If the Spirit of God does His work to purge any particular church of her carnal ways, but that church persists in her ways, it is no different than being infected with leprosy. Just as a house that has walls infected with leprosy has to be destroyed, so must the church that has spiritual leprosy. I am not talking about destroying the church building, I am talking about bringing an end to the gathering of those saints. When rebellious carnal people meet it infects those who enter and does more to make them unclean than clean.

Eyesalve: Now

By | Eyesalve

And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us. 16And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.” Lk. 2:15

 

Notice the shepherds didn’t say, hey guys, let’s plan a trip to Bethlehem later this week, or we’ll have to check it out after we get the sheep well fed and watered. No, they said “let us NOW GO.” And then it says, “they came with HASTE.” They immediately responded and headed out to Bethlehem. There are too many people to count who have said, “I will give my life to the Lord tomorrow. There are too many saints that missed out on the work and the blessings of the Lord because they said to Him, “I’ll get to that later.” Let us go now, let us obey now.

Eyesalve: Don’t Let it be Your Fault

And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.” Lk. 2:10

 

The angel brought a message of good news that is to bring great joy, not just for the shepherds, but “to ALL people.” Yet most people are miserable. There are only two reasons for that, they either did not hear the good news or they rejected it. With God’s help, don’t let it be your fault if others around you are miserable.

Eyesalve: Don’t Watch Them Gather

And it came to pass, when Moses went out unto the tabernacle, that all the people rose up, and stood every man at his tent door, and looked after Moses, until he was gone into the tabernacle. 9And it came to pass, as Moses entered into the tabernacle, the cloudy pillar descended, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and the LORD talked with Moses. 10And all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand at the tabernacle door: and all the people rose up and worshipped, every man in his tent door. Ex. 33:8-10

 

It is a good thing that you can worship the Lord right in your own home, but don’t watch the saints gather at the tabernacle of the Lord from your recliner.

Eyesalve: You Need God’s Help To Love

By | Eyesalve

I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.” Jn. 15:5

 

So you think you really love God? Well consider this, without Him you can do nothing. That means that you can’t even love Him without His help. Ask Him and He will help you love Him.

Eyesalve: He Gave It To You

By | Eyesalve

What shall therefore the lord of the vineyard do? he will come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto others.” Mk. 12:9

 

Just think, when Jesus said that others would be given the vineyard, He was talking about you. God is trusting you, let Him receive the fruit from it.

Eyesalve: Leave Them Marveling

“And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? 21They say unto him, Caesar’s. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s; and unto God the things that are God’s. 22When they had heard these words, they marvelled, and left him, and went their way.” Mt. 22:20-22

 

For the most part we are ineffective when we leave people with an argument. You may think that if you stir up people to argue back with you about spiritual things that you are somehow effective. No one argued with Jesus. He didn’t speak with human wisdom. If he did, he would have had arguments thrown back at Him by human wisdom from others. When we speak in heavenly wisdom there is no argument. If the Spirit is speaking through us it will leave people to marvel, not argue.

Eyesalve: Put On Christ

By | Eyesalve

And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment: 12And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. 13Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” Mt. 22:11-13

 

Heaven is only for those who put on Christ.

Eyesalve: We Will Produce Fruit

By | Eyesalve

They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.” Mt. 21:41

 

This verse is the conclusion of a parable Jesus spoke. The parable starts at the 33rd verse if you wish to read the whole thing. If you do you will understand that Jesus is teaching thru this parable that the vineyard will be taken away from the Jews and will be given to the whosoever will which is known as the church (Jew and Gentile). The words I highlighted are great words of encouragement. Jesus is saying that His church, in every generation, will give back to Jesus fruit. Hallelujah! That means that if we are going to give back to Him fruit there will be a production of fruit. Let us be confident that we the church will produce fruit in our generation.
