The Threshing
Floor for Mammon

Eze 7:12 The time is come, the day draweth near: let not the buyer rejoice, nor the seller mourn: for wrath is upon all the multitude thereof. Jer 51:18 They are vanity, the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish. It is time for Thee, LORD, to work: for they have made void thy law. Whoso keepeth the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man's heart discerneth both time and judgment.
The WORD Of THE LORD
Why
would you not chasten yourselves and put far from you the voices
of thy selling and thy merchandising of My name? Is there no honor
among you? Is their none who will not sell the holy ways and words
of thy GOD? Where are those who build up walls between My people
and say that I said build up houses unto thine own names? When
man is in honor, I am not, says The LORD. Is it a light thing to sell
within your temples, and say that I said, sell? Is this not another gospel?
My son JESUS, drove out the money changers with both My fury
and indignation. Shall I not visit you and dry up thy streams and the
bounty of thy own selling? You say you sell to build for Me, yet you
build to sell for thee. Is this a light thing to be passed over and
not considered? Shall I
turn away and wink at such that you do in My name?
Did My son JESUS turn away the money changers? Who shall walk in the ways of My son who spoke forth My words unto an evil generation. Behold, I am against thee, O thou, most proud, saith the Lord GOD of hosts: for thy day is come, the time that I will visit thee, for you have made temples unto your own names and they stand as the market place of your own enterprises. You sell My truths and pervert my name, saying I shall bless you if you buy. It is written: buy the truth and sell it not yet you sell and merchandise among My people when I said, freely you have received, freely give. You show disrespect to those who do not buy, and partner with those with purchasing power. Where are the lowly? Where are your works unto the poor not trumpeted? Have you not received the very gift of salvation freely? What shall you give unto Me for this? Shall My anointing now be sold and how shall I weigh it? It is measured and weighed upon those who have not and freely give of their lives unto Me by the doing of My will. The changes are before you and your streams and rivers shall dry up from the dry bones within them. Oh that My pastors and shepherds and prophets and teachers would come unto Me in faith and sell not. There are those who stand proudly upon the merchandise of their own marketing saying and equating money with holiness. How far from Me they have wandered.
Have you not read, and is it not written: But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Now as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses, Nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat. And if the meat of My Son JESUS, is to do My will then should you not also walk the steps of faith trusting Me?
My people I set before you many questions and give warning to come unto Me in repentance, for I have set you as ministers to be first servant unto My will and I have set you as ministers to freely give. Come unto My table and eat. Draw nigh unto me and chasten yourselves for what shall you say when these questions are testaments before you announcing your works? I say your works do testify against you and the cries of the poor have come unto My ears and I shall not turn away from you until you have paid all that you owe unto Me in recompense. Who shall be paid and to whom shall I give, but to those found with nameless names hidden in My will, and to those who abuse not My power in the gospel. For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; your temples are the threshing floor for mammon, and it is time to thresh : yet a little while, endure, repent, and the time of harvest shall come.
Behold, I am against thee, O thou most proud, saith the Lord GOD of hosts: for thy day is come, the time that I will visit thee. A wise man's heart discerneth both time and judgment.
Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the swelling of Jordan unto the habitation of the strong: but I will make them suddenly run away from her: and who [is] a chosen [man, that] I may appoint over her? Who is like Me, and who will appoint me the time? Is their one shepherd that will stand before Me with a pure heart and hands cleansed from the stench of the spirit of mammon?
What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge,that I abuse not my power in the gospel. Be not over much wicked, neither be thou foolish: why shouldest thou die before thy time? A wise man's heart discerneth both time and judgment, therefore repent..
