UNDERSTAND THE PRINCIPLE OF MIXED SEED
You shall keep My statutes. You shall not let your livestock breed with another kind. You shall not sow your field with mixed seed. Nor shall a garment of mixed linen and wool come upon you. (Leviticus 19:19)
For they have taken some of their daughters as wives for themselves and their sons, so that the holy seed is mixed with the peoples of those lands. Indeed, the hand of the leaders and rulers has been foremost in this trespass. (Ezra 9:2)
In this modern day there is such a mixture of doctrines and spirits out there. This is causing many in the body of Christ to remain as children tossed to and fro with every wind of doctrine (Ephesians 4:14). Just because you’re hungry doesn’t mean you should feed on junk food. There are so many charlatans in the body of Christ at this juncture in history.
For example, I’ve never witnessed so many claiming to be “prophetic”, but are really pathetic. I’ve never witnessed so much of what’s called “prophetic” without any unction of the Holy Spirit on it. Is it possible to be prophetic without knowing the Holy Spirit? I know that’s a pretty strong statement, but I am witnessing it on a regular basis.
I was recently in a service and a so called “prophet” came out and ministered to two individuals by a supposed word of knowledge and word of wisdom. I immediately sensed a strange spirit. It wasn’t the Holy Spirit. Yet everyone clapped and rejoiced. This happens consistently in the body of Christ. It breaks my heart at how many are being deceived this way because they are underdeveloped spiritually.
Be careful of money-motivated and stardom-motivated ministers. Be careful who you follow. Your associations and connections help shape you into who you are becoming.
Follow proven ministers. Follow proven fathers. Follow the Lord in whom you are to be connected closely to spiritually. Connect and commit to local churches whose leadership know what they’re doing. Not everyone who speaks Christanese is spiritually developed.
Too many are serving up junk food in this hour. Too many are serving up a mixture of ingredients that make for a lousy meal.
Bert Farias' books are forerunners to personal holiness, the move of God and the return of the Lord. They also combat the departure from the faith and the turning away from the truth we are seeing in our day. His recent five-book bundle, written under a fresh anointing, is a forerunner of what the Lord is doing in His church today. His most read books are Cleansing The Temple and The Tumultuous 2020s and Beyond.
