This ad which pops up on CBC television from time to time
asks viewers to text PRAYER at 2201 in order to seek
guidance from above, but is this really true?
Persons need to understand that you should not have to spend
money in order to get favour or instruction from God. The
Bible contradicts this notion of persons having to spend
money in order to get blessings. The bible in Mathew Chapter
10 verse 8 touts the idea that power of God was given freely
to men and women of God, and therefore should be given
freely to persons wanting results from this power.
Many within and outside of the Christian church are being
lead to believe that in order to be bless of God, you must
give money to someone.
It has reached the point that if you dare go to church
without money in our pocket you are lead to feel
uncomfortable. Many churches are no longer passing around
the collection plate, but are having persons move from their
seats in order to give an offering to the church. What this
does is separates the "haves" from the "have nots" and leave
some feeling embarrass.
It is also causing some to give when in their heart they had
not plan to. This latter aspect is treading on dangerous
ground as giving grudgingly can lead to curses falling on
those persons.
Texting 2201 for answers might not be a wise thing to do. If
one needs prayer this can be acquired for free by calling a
church where persons will pray with and for you absolutely
free. The texting for answers sounds a lot like reading of
the horoscopes for answers which as the bible says is
treading on dangerous ground.
