Some areas of the Body of Christ
are “out of balance”…
Here is an understanding and
clarification for the Body of Christ, which is God’s Habitation, to bring back
“balance”…
The assembling of the body in
local churches are not to be for the prospering of the “leader” and the body
going without. This is a body out of “balance”.
Titus 1:11 says… Whose mouths
must be stopped, who subvert whole house, teaching things which they ought not,
for filthy lucre’s sake.
There are other scriptures on
this that rebuke those that are using lies and doctrines of the traditions of
men for their selfish gains, rather than declaring Truth and Life for the
prospering of God’s people and family into eternal Life and Liberty. They are without power. Yet our Father God will set them free in His
way and time.
Clearly God is transforming new
Shepherds that are after His own heart; those that will protect His people,
which are His possessions. Shepherds
that will not use them for selfish gain, but rather prosper and build them in
the Spiritual riches and wealth of God through Jesus Christ, AND…. will also
build them, God’s people, to be God’s house that will be prosperous in the
material means too. The riches of material
means are not the problem…. it is the MIND of the person that pollutes God’s
blessings.
So, let your mind be renewed in
TRUTH. Allow God’s Power – His Word to
be breathed within your Soul and mind, so that you may be a transformed,
changed individual that is walking BY THE MIND OF CHRIST in all your
works. Producing His fruit and helping
to Prosper Others, as the Lord prospers you: whether in the spiritual wealth or
the material wealth or all means.
2 Corinthians 4:4-7; Revelation
21:24; 2 Corinthians 3:7, 18
chpt 4:6 For God, who commanded
the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light
of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
chpt 3:18 But we all, with open
face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into
the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.
These verses sum up the purpose
of God, the Holy Spirit in us…. changing
us into that Divine Nature that is no longer in sin and death or decay. His Heavenly Body – His fullness- revealed and
abiding in His Church to all that are in heaven and earth. This is THE Prosperity that the world is in
need of … not just spiritual, but materially as well….
You see,… God is Able. God owns all things and lacks nothing. As the Head of all, and from which all
blessings flow, if the Head is prosperous, then the field (people) will be
prosperous.
The problem occurs when anyone in
the church stops listening to the Holy Spirit’s instructions. That is when
things get OUT OF BALANCE.
Leaders/Ministers go without, or have too much. The people go without, or have too much. Love of money is the root of all evil. God will provide His Funding Tool and will
give it to who He has prepared to administer properly in the church again.
Let’s allow the Lord to FIX THIS
within each of us today, and cause us to unite in God’s Mind of how His Church
should be run…. no matter where it is being assembled or how many people are
there.
God is our head… from Him only
should each member of the body seek HIS DIRECTION and instructions for the
day’s necessities. And as He prospers
you, prosper others too. Whether it is
spiritual giving, material giving, or other… however the Lord has prospered you, nourish
the body too… This is what is meant by
all things common, so there is no lack in the body of Christ, nor is there any
greed or envy or jealousies. Instead,
Provision is provided through the sincerity of the Lord in all Purity and Love
in the Power of His Holy Spirit… flowing and providing for His Habitation, His
body…. so there is no lack or want.
2 Corinthians 4:1-2
Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we
faint not; But have renounced the
hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word
of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to
every man’s conscience in the sight of God.
God is Able. If each member of the Body will seek Him
daily, and give daily to the Body of Christ, according to what God has made
them able, then there will be no lack or want in any member of the body of
Christ.
Amen.
