Psalm 40:9–10 NKJV
9 I have proclaimed the good news of righteousness In the great assembly; Indeed, I do not restrain my lips, O Lord, You Yourself know. 10 I have not hidden Your righteousness within my heart; I have declared Your faithfulness and Your salvation; I have not concealed Your lovingkindness and Your truth From the great assembly.

Dismissed by Divinity

Matthew 7:21–23 NKJV
21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’

1. Action is a huge Key in spiritual life.

Matthew 7:21 NKJV
21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
Remember two things:
there really is a God.
He doesn't need our input.
people mistake spiritual words for spirituality.
somebody can say ‘I love you’ but if there is no fallow through then they don’t love you.
people can say ‘i’m sorry’ but if their saying they are sorry for the same thing over and over. then how long are you going to believe the i love you or i am sorry?
action is the key to spirituality not fancy lofty words.

‘BUT, He who does the will of my Father in Heaven.

Don’t be cute! do the stuff you know to do.

2. Everything is not as it seems.

Matthew 7:22 NKJV
22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’
there are two words that can mean so many different things based on the tone used. do you know what those words are ? Robert Allen.
Right! they are my first and middle name.
no you don’t get to use them.
most often they meant discipline.
in the case of my aunt Diane, it meant pay attention. she did this most often when she wanted to share a spiritual truth that she had discovered.
in the same sense there is a relationship with Jesus, through the holy spirit.
gifts are just that gifts. it is my relationship with God that makes the difference.
look at the gifts:
Prophecy
and divergence.
many wonders.

3. Your dismissed!

Matthew 7:23 NKJV
23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’
What’s the Lawlessness?
acting more spiritual then you are.
separating yourself from others.
