The congregations grew larger and larger, with the believers\nbeing empowered and encouraged by the Holy Spirit. They worshiped God in\nwonder and awe, and walked in the fear of the Lord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How\ndoes the Kingdom come and congregations grow larger?&nbsp; They were empowered and encouraged by The\nHoly Spirit. By praying In The Holy Spirit, our empowerment and encouragement\nwill manifest in an increasing manner and we will walk in the reverent <em>Fear of THE LORD<\/em> as well.&nbsp; All aspects of \u201cself\u201d will be sifted and\nremoved from our midst and there will no longer be any darkness of blindness\nand deafness to be found among us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\nis recorded by The Holy Spirit in Acts chapter 5:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1\nNow, a man named Ananias and his wife, Sapphira, likewise sold their farm. 2 they\nconspired to secretly keep back for themselves a portion of the proceeds. So\nwhen Ananias brought the money to the apostles, it was only a portion of the\nentire sale. 3 God revealed their secret to Peter, so he said to him, \u201cAnanias,\nwhy did you let Satan fill your heart and make you think you could lie to the\nHoly Spirit? You only pretended to give it all, yet you hid back part of the\nproceeds from the sale of your property to keep for yourselves. 4 Before you\nsold it, wasn\u2019t it yours to sell or to keep? And after you sold it, wasn\u2019t the\nmoney entirely at your disposal? How could you plot such a thing in your heart?\nYou haven\u2019t lied to people; you\u2019ve lied to God!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5\nThe moment Ananias heard those words, he fell over dead. Everyone was terrified\nwhen they heard what had happened. 6 Some young men came in and removed the\nbody and buried him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">7\nThree hours later, his wife came into the room, with no clue what had happened\nto her husband.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">8\nPeter said to her, \u201cTell me, were the two of you paid this amount for the sale\nof your land?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sapphira\nsaid, \u201cYes, that\u2019s how much it was.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">9\nPeter told her, \u201cWhy have you agreed together to test the Spirit of the Lord? I\nhear the footsteps of those who buried your husband at the door\u2014they\u2019re coming\nhere to bury you too!\u201d 10 At that moment she dropped dead at Peter\u2019s feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When\nthe young men came in, she was already dead, so they carried her out and buried\nher next to her husband. 11 The entire church was seized with a powerful\nsense of the fear of God, which came over all who heard what had happened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This\nis serious.&nbsp; We need the revelation of\nTHE FEAR OF THE LORD.&nbsp; Nothing is hidden\nthat won\u2019t be revealed.&nbsp; We all need\ncorrection and The Holy Spirit is to teach us and bring us into all Truth.&nbsp; We can receive correction the easy way or the\nhard way, it is our choice.&nbsp; By the way,\nin verse 1, the Aramaic can be translated \u201cAnanias, together with his wife, who\nwas famous for her beauty.\u201d The Aramaic name Shapeera means \u201cbeauty.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your\nphysical qualities do not make invulnerable to the judgments of FATHER.&nbsp; Some people think that their mental prowess\nor superior physical qualities give them the right to exalt themselves above\nothers.&nbsp; Ananias and Sapphira found this\nout the hard way.&nbsp; Let us be sensitive to\nthe Truth.&nbsp; If deemed necessary, FATHER\ncould remove us from this earth in less than a nanosecond (one billionth of a\nsecond).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let\nus not casually pray in THE SPIRIT but let us reverently enter in with passion\nfor what FATHER wants to show us today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When we do not have a reverent Fear of THE LORD, it is because we are lacking.&nbsp; The Holy Spirit recorded in Psalm 111: 10 \u200b\u200bThe fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; \u200b\u200bA good understanding have all those who do His commandments. \u200b\u200bHis praise endures forever.
