Though the world does not see the revealing of God’s children as He decrees, it can and will occur, since it reveals truths in scripture, as faith produces what it says. Thus, messages from pulpits must be for the same purpose He endeavors: to reveal by the Holy Spirit the transformation of the creation of males and females as His spiritual offspring.
All right! I need to repeat something I’ve said before concerning this. Believers should never be viewed as expendable assets within the Church’s corporate ministry or abused at the discretion of leadership. Jesus is still the head of the Church and has not changed its purpose; it remains the same as it was before it came into existence. However, the uncharacteristic mannerisms of many churches of late give evidence that some have strayed from this truth.
Anyone who sees believers as disposable is not, by any love God exercises, fit for leadership, pulpit, or otherwise. Believers are, as the word says, to have the knowledge of Christ and the Father according to His Divine power that, by faith, works in them and brings about all things concerning life and godliness by the knowledge of Him. And they are not just recipients of His great and glorious promises or mere spectators of the results of His blessings to others; they are, according to scripture, active partakers of a Divine nature that brings an escape from the world’s corruption through lust.
2 Peter 1:1-4 Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: 2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
A supernatural change is coming that will reveal the true nature and character of those He gave the right to be His offspring.
There is a change coming to the Church’s corporate well-being by the Holy Spirit. What is written in the Word for knowledge and understanding regarding that such a change is for His offspring and reveals how they are to be through His eyes so that all are without mediocrity. The Church must occupy, or more correctly, keep busy till He comes. This will require all areas of our living here to embody peace and harmony in every aspect of scriptural truth.
You do not have to agree with what I’ve said or what I will say in the next few paragraphs, but I think you know perfectly well that what I am talking about is true. Today’s churches struggle to fulfill their spiritual purpose because they no longer see themselves as having the supernatural authority God gave them. Thus, we have pulpits seeing themselves as those hypocritical testifiers that mainstream media’s politically correct prowess speaks of. As ministers cower before it, they cannot operate victoriously, fearful of Woke activists who sow doubt within their ministry efforts.
These are dangerous times for all believers who are mediocre in their spiritual fortitude, as no revelation of truth occurs within the dynamics at work within them. On the other hand, God considers all this and will bring forth believers who dare stand against activities born out of evil. So, before you blow your holy gaskets, let me bring spiritual sensibility to this. The fact that such a mediocre statute exists is twofold. First, there is this fundamental lack of truth in most pulpits. Second, congregants lack spiritual health, making the process of their transformation difficult but not impossible.
The Holy Spirit has written truths concerning mediocrity and how it continues to distort an image of God. It is not so much about the details of it as it is the processes at work to bring one’s nature to accept mediocre precepts that defer a transformation of Godly offspring. Denying spiritual health, which is part of God’s family well-being, is part of a process of occupying a place in Christ’s Church through a spirit of ignorance. Churches declare their congregations are one big family, yet members struggle to survive in this era of patronized sin.
The Holy Spirit’s activity for spiritual nurturing required by God’s offspring is made unavailable, as those who stand in pulpits are driven by egos for fame and peer status allegiance. Therefore, your spiritual well-being as a believer is being attended to by dynamic programs and magisterially scheduled events at the pulpit and all its co-party as a sole means of maturity, while you sit as a life-wearied soul, only seen as good for tithes and offerings and not as the Spirit leads.
So, in my obviously no longer humble opinion, it is time for believers to take back responsibility for who they are and to bring about a true unity in a revived body of Christ, as in the days of the early Church. John 3:14-16 (ISV) Just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, 15so that everyone who believes in him would have eternal life. 16“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his uniquely existing Son so that everyone who believes in him would not be lost but have eternal life.
The Church’s occupation of this earth is temporary, but it is to be an occupation like no other; nonetheless, it is required to prepare for an eternal one still ahead. God determined that this Church age is for those who inherently occupy a presence before Him by the Spirit of God. Nothing is done on earth or to the earth as a part of God’s plan unless the Spirit of God orchestrates it, whether done by Himself or through those He chooses; He does the will of the Father by the means revealed in scripture. Gen 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
The power of God can fully do what has been spoken to occur that brings to pass the eternal plans laid out before the earth’s beginning through those chosen to do so by the Spirit of God. Gen 41:38 And Pharaoh said unto his servants, Can we find such a one as this is, a man in whom the Spirit of God is? He works through those who are obedient to the Spirit of God, even if they don’t understand it, doing as instructed for their benefit and those He wants to bless in the process, whether present or future. 2 Chron15:1 And the Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded:
Amid God’s wrath, He calls on those willing to be used by the Spirit of God for deliverance from it, as by the Spirit the prophets of old spoke as the Father to the nation of Israel to bring a surrender to His commandments and receive the blessings He afforded. 2 Chron 24:20 And the Spirit of God came upon Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest, which stood above the people, and said unto them, Thus saith God, Why transgress ye the commandments of the LORD, that ye cannot prosper? because ye have forsaken the LORD, he hath also forsaken you.
The Lord revealed the forces at work in the people’s hearts in the day by the anointing that abided in the presence of the Spirit of God. That same anointing is today among those willing to do the Father’s will as those whom the Spirit empowers by the same truth revealed in His Divine nature, showing that the kingdom has come. Math 12:28 But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you.
No prophecy of scripture defines the current level of mediocrity the Church is filled with today; thus, a revival of truth for the DIVINE health of His body that was but is yet to be revealed must occur.
True spiritual revival does not occur by any denomination or religious organization, nor can any group of people or the most dynamic of ministries muster the power and authority required to revive Christ’s body spiritually, only the Spirit of God can.
Rom 15:19 Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and round about unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ. Such a revival requires an interactivity that’s accompanied by supernatural signs and wonders that produce miracles from above. Thus, the activity of the Holy Spirit through spiritually healthy believers who have a divine nature is anointed to bring about just such a spiritual revival as nothing seen since the days of Pentecost.
