Exposing the World’s System

Publish date: 10/15/2014

Jeremiah 1:4-10 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying: 5 "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations." 6 Then said I: "Ah, Lord God! Behold, I cannot speak, for I am a youth." 7 But the Lord said to me: "Do not say, 'I am a youth,' For you shall go to all to whom I send you, And whatever I command you, you shall speak. 8 Do not be afraid of their faces, For I am with you to deliver you," says the Lord. 9 Then the Lord put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and the Lord said to me: "Behold, I have put My words in your mouth. 10 See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, To root out and to pull down, To destroy and to throw down, To build and to plant."

As the Body of Christ, we are IN this world, but we are not OF this world; we are just passing through. Our kingdom is the Kingdom of God. The Kingdom of God cannot fail; it is eternal. The kingdom of this world, however, is shaky; it’s coming apart at the seams. Each of us must choose which kingdom with which we will identify and to which we will be attached.

God’s purpose for each of us is freedom, but the devil’s system puts people into slavery. Jesus said that the love of money is the root of all evil. We can see the terrible effects of greed and covetousness woven like a common thread throughout the nations of the earth. Because of the love of money, many have sold out their nation, their people, their family, their freedom and even their own soul. If everything that you do is done for the love of money, then your motive and intent are wrong.

We must judge everything in the light of the Word of God. The world’s system is based upon the love of money and is set up to fail. God’s Word exposes this system. When you know the truth you will be free. By the measuring stick of God’s Word, we can know what the truth is and what is a lie; we can know what is right and what is wrong. We can judge this world’s system and we can choose to function according to God’s Laws and live in freedom and in blessing.

“Exposing the World’s System” will help you examine important areas in your life in the light of God’s Word. As you yield to God's Word, you will be able to make the adjustments by rooting out, pulling down, and destroying what's not of God in your life and building and planting that which is of Him.
