Be careful how you hear and how you judge because with the same measure you mete with it shall be measured back to you again. How you hear will be given back to you. How do you hear?Hear the drum beat of Reformation!

Be careful how you hear!
Romans 10:17
17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
If faith comes by hearing then you need to be careful how you hear otherwise you will believe the wrong thing! How you hear is important. Jesus warned that we should take care how we hear. If you have ears to hear what the Spirit is saying to the church you will hear correctly, but if your ears are not attuned to the frequency of the Holy Spirit you will hear other voices and have wrong interpretations of what you hear.

Why has God chosen the ear as a canal for faith?
Why not the eye? Because the ear cannot lust! It can only hear. They eyes can lust after what it sees. The ear simply hears. They eyes are distinct from the other senses of smell, hear, touch and taste: it is the purest channel for God to reach the human heart. There is a connection between your ear and heart: how you hear affects how you feel and what you believe. We have to make sure we know how to hear correctly. Then we can hear each other and God speaking to us. Once we have established a basis for accurate hearing we can progress to other dimensions of the Spirit realm ? not before.

We teach people to hear from God on your knees in front of an open Bible.
That is not a rule. You can sit and read or read on your computer, but the attitude of the heart of humility is important because God resists the proud and the proud resist Him.

How do you hear?
When someone speaks to you can you listen properly or are you already beginning to formulate what you are going to say when that person stops speaking? Do you like listening to yourself or can you actually hear when other people speak? Why is it so hard for little children to learn to listen to their parents? Hearing has been defiled in the Garden of Eden through wilful disobedience. We need to reform the way we hear.

We need to reform the way we hear from God.
When Jesus cast out deaf and dumb spirits he called them evil and filthy spirits. When you are deaf you cannot speak well. Your hearing affects your speaking. Once the evil spirits left they could hear and speak properly. Some people cannot speak properly about you because they do not hear the right things concerning you! Their understanding has been darkened and they do not understand you at all.

When God vindicates His servant in Isaiah 52 He says that those who opposed his servant, rejected and slandered him, will hear things the servant did not tell them and they will repent and acknowledge the servant of the most High God. When God speaks to you it reforms your hearing!

The measure with which you hear is important
Mark 4:23,24
23 ?If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.?24 Then He said to them, ?Take heed what you hear. With the same measure you use, it will be measured to you; and to you who hear, more will be given.
Take heed is ?blepo? in Greek and it refers to what you see with your mind?s eye. What you understand mentally while you are ?hearing? is how your hearing will produce. To those who hear correctly more will be given. The kingdom of God works on that principle. What is sown comes up in the soil ? automote ? by itself!
Hear is ?akouo? and it refers to comprehension by hearing. As you hear you will believe. The measure you use to hear with is the measure it shall be given to you. Measure here is the word ?metron? and refers to area of influence, standard of judgement, portion. Your metron is determined by how you hear. You cannot go beyond what you hear in your ear! Your ear limits you or expands your capacity. While you are listening to the word of God you either limit God or your metron is being extended ? right now!

To him who hears more shall be given.
Given in Greek is ?prostithemi? and speaks of increase, a growing number of followers being added. More and more people are beginning to hear the drumbeat of the apostolic reformation and they are falling into the ranks to march along with us! When I attended Miracle Valley Bible College in Arizona in America they wrote a feature article about me in the August Issue of 1973. The reporter sent me a card after the interview and said, ?There are those who hear a different drumbeat and have the strength of their own conviction to walk by it ? even if they walk alone.? I have preserved that note in my heart all these years and now I see others starting to follow the same drum beat of the spirit!

?Tithemi? means to establish or lay down. Once someone is willing to lay down his life for a cause it begins to establish a certain beat in the spirit realm. As someone else follows suit that beat gets repeated and a pattern begins to emerge. More and more people respond to the same call of the spirit and the drum begins to beat! As it sends its message across the ether people with responsive hearts begin to pick up that beat and they make up their minds to extend that beat where they are. The drum beat is spreading?from Cape Town to other parts of the nation?to Citrusdal, Saldanha, Sutherland?Berlin?Maputo?Alberton?

A new standard is set
Mete is metreo in Greek and it refers to any rule or standard by which you estimate or value something. If you do not estimate the value of the apostolic reformation very highly you will not walk by that drum beat but follow your own rhythm. But God is raising up a new standard of living and ministry by the apostolic reformation. People who are tired of seeing how the mighty have fallen in the Charismatic world due to double standards of living and to hypocrisy in the church that keeps up the outward show of things so that the image is always correct ? people who have cried about the distorted view of Christ the church has been giving to the world; people who have decided they would rather walk alone than march with those who make the Gospel of Jesus Christ a cheap motivational method or sell salvation like a multi-level merchandise ? these people are beginning to hear the drum beat of the reformation and are rising up and being added to the ranks of reformers, young and old, willing to take a stand for a new standard in the Church of the Firstborn, the general assembly of the spirits of just men made perfect, where a numerable company of angels and heavenly beings worship the Great Creator and where Jesus the Mediator of a better covenant is Lord of all.

Jesus is cleansing His temple ? once again!
The same Jesus who made a whip of rope and chased the money changers and salesmen out of the church who made merchandise of the Gospel is busy cleaning the church again. He begins with those who are willing to change and then starts working on those who refuse to change. He is taking His church back. Ambitious pastors have ruled over His church for long enough. He is the Head of the Church and He is busy exposing all these human methods of church growth that make room for the ego?s of ambitious clergymen to flourish and use people like cattle in order to satisfy their flesh.

Mark 11:15
15 So they came to Jerusalem. Then Jesus went into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves.

How do you hear the Gospel?
If you only hear ?Power? and ?Prosperity? that is how you will believe and live. If you only hear condemnation that is how you will operate. If you only want to hear positive messages you will live like an
