Bethel

Where You Started

By | Eyesalve

And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south. 2And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold. 3And he went on his journeys from the south even to Bethel, unto the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Hai; 4Unto the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the name of the LORD.” Genesis 13:1-4

 

If you have wandered off into Egypt you need to get back to where you started (the cross is our altar). Then you must call on the Lord God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength.

Eyesalve: Go Somewhere Else

By | Eyesalve

Also Amaziah said unto Amos, O thou seer, go, flee thee away into the land of Judah, and there eat bread, and prophesy there: 13But prophesy not again any more at Bethel: for it is the king’s chapel, and it is the king’s court.” Amos 7:12-13

 

King Amaziah represents self-serving ministers. Bethel means house of God. When ministers take possession of the church, instead of allow the Holy Spirit to be in charge, the last thing they ever want is some man or woman of God to come and prophesy. They say, just as Amaziah said to Amos, “Go somewhere else and do your prophesying, this is my church.”
