Beware of the Kingdom of Wolves

April 16, 2024

Tuesday

There are wolves that are after you. These wolves will single you out for destruction. They especially pick on those who have been hurt or have strayed from their protective group. Their goal is to devour you. You must always be on guard.

Of course, I am not talking about Canis lupus. I am talking about those who will take you away from your faith. They will devour you with their devious theology. They will leave you with nothing.

These wolves look for people who have been hurt. They are sick or struggling financially or they have been walked on all their lives. They promise that you will be healed if you follow their teaching of faith. They give you the secret of opening God's vault where the money is stored. They tell you that you have the power within you to change all circumstances if you will adhere to their method.

But first, they claim, you must give a certain amount of money to prove your faith. If you believe, that shouldn't be a problem. That proof is all that you need to unlock the power within you to be healed, or see riches pour in or have people call you the blessed one. This is the way out of sickness, poverty and anonymity. This is the road they claim that you were always meant for.

Of course, when the saints in the Bible didn't have this same experience they will claim that they either didn't know how to obtain the power or that they were giving a false testimony or that they were simply not walking where God wanted them to walk. You don't need to be like Paul who would be beaten and work hard for his money. You don't need to be like most of the Apostles who were martyred for their preaching of God's word. You can be above all that.

These wolves are leading you to worship a false god. They will even tell you that you can see the face of your god in the mirror. These wolves are leading you as far from God as they can. They want you to see them as prophets who reveal the truth. They don't want you to meet Truth in person.

How long will you allow these wolves to devour you? How long will you walk with a false god?

Many people one day realize that all of their church attendance and sacrificial giving is playing the lottery. They have not had any return for their gifts but they listen to those who are paraded in front of the church to give testimonies of being financially well off after adopting the theology of wolves. They have tried to believe, they have even proved their belief again and again by giving more and more but have nothing to show for it. 

Run away from these wolves. Go to where you can know the true God. That place may not have as many people who seem to be as happy as the place you are leaving. They may be much more solemn. They may be much fewer than you have experienced in the church of the wolves. They will walk much deeper with their God. They will put their faith in Him to accomplish His will rather than themselves. Their lives will be humble. Their lives will be full of scripture. Their lives will drip with the fruit of the Spirit. They will know Jesus personally.

Wolves are after you. They want you to separate yourselves from the Church and come join their kingdom of wolves. Don't let them do it.

Acts 20:29–30 (NASB 2020) 29 I know that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock; 30 and from among your own selves men will arise, speaking perverse things to draw away the disciples after them.
