Matthew 23:9 - 'Don't set people up as experts over your life, letting
them*tell you what to do. Save that authority for God; let him
tell you what*to do. No one else should carry the title of 'Father';
you have only*one Father, and he's in heaven.'

We get so many things out of wack because we listen to too many voices*sometimes. You got your pastor talking in one ear, then you got the*tele-evangelist talking in the other ear, then you got the conference*speaker talking in your head, and then you got the videos, books, and*tapes of some other preacher talking to you too! TOO MANY VOICES!!*God's voice gets suppressed and you don't know who to listen to. You*don't know who to financially support, and you don't know who to trust*with your ministry and purpose. Well, let me help you out in this*Daily Word! God's voice is first and foremost. If his word says it,*then that's what you go with. Secondly, your pastor's voice is next in*line. Your pastor should confirm what God has said to you and he*should make the Word of God more applicable to you.

It just totally trips me out how people will flock to these major conferences and not be faithful to*their local church. It totally disturbs me to see people with more*confidence in a famous tv preacher than in their own pastor. This is*dangerous people. You cannot keep listening to all these voices and*think that you will hear God through any and everybody. Can't you see*that the conference scene is a money making idea that charges folks to*hear the Gospel of Jesus? Sure we need help in certain areas, but why*can't we get that help in our local assembly? If you are at a church*that can't help you, then you need to leave. But you can't keep*following every voice on TV, and allowing any and everyone to feed you*spiritually! You can't be under your pastor on Sunday and under the*national preacher on Monday, then under TBN's top 10 on Wednesday*through Friday! We gotta stop allowing all these voices into our*spirit and get to a place where God can speak to us! Then our Pastors*and leaders can confirm the Word and properly feed us. People please hear me! If you want to*prosper, seek the Kingdom of God first! He said all these things will*be added if you seek him and follow his commandments. You don't need a*10 step program, you don't need a conference, you don't need a book or*a video! All you need is the Word of God and obedience to it! I'm not*saying all the conferences are bad or that all books and videos are harmful. But what I*am saying is, if you follow every voice, then eventually the wrong*voice will sneak up and capture you. Obey God and submit to your local*assembly financially and spiritually. God will honor that and cause*you to prosper correctly!
