Acts 5:12 Everybody's An Apostle

Acts 5:12
And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch.

You would think that the position of Apostle is the highest ranking position in the visible Church. You have: Apostles, Chief Apostle, Arch Apostle and on and on. If people knew that an apostle is an ambassador, a diplomat, would they run so hard after the position? If they knew that most apostles were killed for doing what apostles do, and that is representing Jesus. 
They seem to look at the glory that some project upon that position. At present, they are searching for a high sounding title. They are looking for prestige. An apostle is  simply one who apostles' clear and simple. They represent Jesus and do what Jesus did. They replicate the miracles signs and wonders. Now how many people do you see doing that. All the apostles of today only desire to speak a word in your life and pay them for doing so. We have seen come a long way from the standard. No one will hardly lay hands on you and pray any more. Mostly, because they do not have any fasting or praying to back up what they do.
They have become the great marketers of the church world. they sell their wares. They sell their miracles. They sell everything. We are going to have to examine these title seekers a little more closer. But first we pray for them.

Psalms 57:6 The Trap You Set For Me

Psalms 57:6 KJV
They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they have digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen themselves. Selah.
I was not aware that he had a plan from the beginning. I was the object of his hate and disgust. He just did not come up with this plan in a moments notice, but he had worked on it for a long time. He studied my ways and mimicked my gestures. Hew knew my likes and dislikes. He had to become me in order to know me, better yet, to know my weaknesses. From these things he developed a plan for my demise. It was as if he was infatuated with me. Which was greater his hate or infatuation? I will never know.
He began to work his plan. He came to those around me to turn them against me. Everyone  around me began to loathe me. My friends were no longer my friends, but like strangers, like people I never knew. My name became "mud." They wanted to cast me into a deep and dark chamber.
At the last moment, Love prevailed and Truth stepped in. It was discovered that all things said and done were lies. The plan that was working so well, failed. My enemy was taken up and casted into the deep dark chamber that was prepared for me. His plan became his own end.
God is praised
