The Body of Christ
~~2Chronicles7:14~~
The hand cannot say to the eye I do not need you. We need each other; the famous cannot say to the unknown “you’ve got it wrong”, just because he is an ‘unknown’. We do not earn the gifts or the calling on our lives: if this were the case, the Church would be the proudest most competitive structure on earth. God gives gifts and callings to whomever He will, and in whichever season He chooses: The purpose being that we would work together, to enhance and fortify each other as One Body: We are not the ‘Club of Hands’ or the ‘Tribe of Eyes’: We are the Body of Christ; where the eyes need the nose as surly as the foot needs the toes. When we work together under One Head - especially in the prophetic, we validate, strengthen and clarify what God is trying to show us, providing we do not contradict His will (revealed in the pattern of his Word). So if one prophesies persecution, while another prophesies revival, let’s get on our knees and prayerfully take to heart both: Because I believe that one is needed to produce the other. It’s not that the one prophesying persecution does not believe in God’s goodness and mercy- not at all. We see in part and prophesy in part, which is why we work together. I am no prophet: I only know what the Lord has shown me: The Church in the West has been asleep - deeply, comfortably asleep; and in order to see an awakening of this magnitude, there must be a significant shaking. If God has to shake us HARD to wake us up, that we would run ONLY to Him; cling ONLY to Him; stand in the gap and cry out ONLY to Him, that mercy instead of judgement would fall on this nation....If God has to shake us to wake us; to send the fire in order to prepare us for the rain...if He HAS TO do this...is this not the goodness and mercy of God?
