Caught Up In The Weeds

Sis. Jo Smith was telling about a dream that she had. She said in this dream and she was caught up in the briers and thorns. The more she tried to free herself, the more tangled she would get. She could not free herself from these thorns and briers. Then she screamed out the name of Jesus and immediately she was freed. Praise God. My question is could she called unto another jesus that the churches teach and be freed? No, she could have not. She called out to the true Jesus of scripture and she was freed quickly.

Are people in the church being set free from the weeds? no, because they are calling on the name of a false jesus. They are tangled or Caught Up In The Weeds or briers and thorns and not getting free but tangling themselves in them.

Jonah 2:5 The waters compassed me about, even to the soul: the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head. ( we can see here is Jonah. the weeds were wrapped around his head choking him. This is what that is happening today in the church. The weeds are choking you to death. The weeds are of this another jesus that you are getting from the ministry. People your heads are compassed around even unto your soul and strangling you to death. People you

are walking in deep waters. there is a great gulf there. You are drowning from this water and before long if you do not repent and come to the true Jesus of scripture. You are as she was and before long you are not going to be able to free yourself. The only escape is to call the name of the true Jesus. You are swallowing up or being engulfed in these waters. As The stormy sea engulfed a ship and the true Jesus is not on board and your ship is sinking

You are Caught Up In The Weeds and it as I said choking you to death.

Mark 4:7 And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit. ( the weeds grew up and became thorns in your life and choked out the true Jesus and your fruit tree is no more yielding fruit. People the weeds or tares are now able to suffocate you. People you need to pull up the cares of this world which is weeds. You need to plow around and dress around your fruit trees. If you want a good fruit to grow on the tree. You are failing to clean around the tree and it is only growing fruit not able to eat . If you are not dressing and keeping the grass from growing the fruit tree will spring forth rotten fruit that is not able to be eaten. This is what happening Gen 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. ( you are dying from this fruit tree because that is what you are getting from these churches. God said not eat from this tree. Clean around your tree and get set free from that law and come into grace. Women under the law you are not supposed to speak go home and ask your husband can you give a revelation that God gives you. That what the weeds or law does to you.

Genesis 3:16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee. ( the woman was in much pain and labor because she could and still can not bring forth children or conceive a child under the law. The law is another jesus. This conception is not natural conception but spiritual conception. Under law her womb was dead and she could not bare a child of God or could not bare the true Jesus. Under the law, the woman is an outcast. Under the law, the woman had a desire for the things of God and under the law, it is not granted unto her. She is Caught Up In The Weeds. Under the law,, it is only a man's kingdom. It is also a whore kingdom started by Adam.

You have not cultivated your field and pruned your fruit tree and you are getting nothing but thorns and thistles from another jesus and his brier bush. Yes, you have allowed the pastors, preachers of whatever to keep you from the true grass or fruit from the true Jesus which is grace. You are eating a rotten fruit from these churches. you are devouring this fruit and never even know where it is coming from. These preachers pastors etc. are destroying the true fruit which is the word of God. There is a drought and the true fruit tree needs water to survive. They are keeping you from the spring of water. Without water, the fruit tree is dying and so are you. you have nothing but thorns and thistles upon your altars. There is no water for the people to drink in these churches and no water for the fruit tree. There are no true ministers of God in these churches. I had to leave the church before I got any true water for my fruit tree.

The church is without a holy place. No true worship of the true Jesus Christ. No more sanctification in the church system. No more true repentance. The churches are Caught Up In The Weeds and choking the things of God They are offering a burnt sacrifice unto the Lord. They sprinkle the blood round about upon the altar, as the priest was told to do under the law.

That is the same thing that the law covenant did. The first Testament the OT was law.

Math.13:20-21 -- But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;

(These stony places are the same thing as the briers and thorns. We know from Scripture that the ten Commandments were written in stone.)

Mat.-13:21--- Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.

So we see that these briers and thorns( Old Testament covenant) will try to choke out the true word of God.

It is just like a man that has got stuck in quicksand ( miry clay) the more he tried to free himself the deeper he sunk. or like the sister in the thorns and could not free herself. So if you’re trying to build your house on sand or miry clay it is going to sink deeper and deeper. You’re building it on briers and thorns.)

Ps.40:2-- He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. ( The miry clay here represents the Old Testament covenant because it was earthly.)

OK, now that we have seen that these briers and thorns were things of the Old Testament covenant. Let me try to show you something here with Cain.

In Genesis 4:7- If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him. ( In other words, he gave Cain the chance to repent and bring the same offering to him as did Able, and we will see what that offering was.)

Act 3:19 -- Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord. ( We can see from this if Cain had repented God would have forgiven him and blotted out his sins. This also stands for the people in the church system. He will cast your sins as far as the east to west. Not from north to south because there is a starting and ending point from the north to south. but east to west has no starting or ending point)

John 2- 10. And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now. (So what I am saying the New Testament way is the way to serve God. First of all,l you give all of yourself to God and you give him the best. See he saved the last for the best, he said that which is worse was that which was first those briers and thorns that we have been referring to. Be not Caught Up In The Weeds, the OT way of serving God. Refresh your mind.

Let me say this. I debated with God a whole week on this one. I said God there is no way I can do a message on this. He would show me a few things and I would forget them. Still saying, God, I know not what to say about the weeds. But I said in my spirit Ok, God I am leaving it up to you. I still have so much that if I did write it, a book could not contain it. Most of you will not even read any of it but that is your choice but there are some people that better listen to this message.

I would like to add on to the message.

Exodus 14:3 For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are entangled in the land, the wilderness hath shut them in. ( Pharaoh, your ministers know they have you entangled and shut up. They tell you that you need to be at the church a certain time. You should not go to another's church. You must pay tithes, you should not question him about anything? You should not try to help anyone that is down because he said they do not pay tithes. I know this is true because a pastor told me these things when I went to his church. Yes, the church belongs to him. He can tell you what he wants and it is his decision on anything and everything. He has you entangled and caught in the weeds and there is no way out of the briers and thorns. He is your prince and your king and you must obey him. You are in his prison and he also is the warden. Because he shut up the doors. The only way to get out is the one that has the key. We know who has the key and Matthew 16:19 also knows the one we know.

Jesus said .....19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. ( according to this the keeper of the keys ( Peter) has the power to open and to shut. What was the key and how did Peter get the keys? 16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. ( Peter got the key because God gave him the revelation to who Jesus was " Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God." that is the only way to be set free from the chain that Pharaoh has around your neck. .John 8:36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. ( you are no longer a slave to this master.

Isaiah 61:1 The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; ( THE DOOR TO THE PRISON IS NOW OPEN AND YOU ARE SET FREE FROM BONDAGE AND PRISON YOU ARE NOW IN. but it is your choice, to be set free or be like the slave that said; Exodus 21:5 And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free: ( whether you realize it or not you are not only making a decision for you but your children and wife or husband forever. For generation after generation.)

6 Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him for ever. ( you are marked forever.)

Galatians 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. ( Paul is saying here, stand firm you have been set free and do not go back to that yoke of bondage that you had around your neck. Don't let them set a snare before you and do not go back to what you have been set free from. That yoke of bondage is what they teach, the law. You have been set free and you are now under Grace. Galatians 5:3For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law. Galatians 5:4 Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

People, it is a very dangerous thing to go back on God.... 2 Peter 2:20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.

21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.
