WE ARE ONE
This write up is about the body of Christ; we are one and shouldn’t be divided. Just as the body has many parts not just one part. They all work together for the good of the body. They are one, and so the body of Christ, we are to work hand in hand; supporting ourselves and intercede for each other. The body of Christ is the church of GOD and it determines what becomes of us. Unfortunately, the Church has been divided by some, it has been abused, it has been corrupted and manipulated nowadays. It shouldn’t be corrupt nor abused nor divided. It should rather bring honor and glory to GOD. It should stand as one and work together. Paul said in 1 Corithians 12 vs 24: while of course the parts that may be seen do not require this special care, so GOD has put the body together in such a way that extra honor and care are given to those parts that might otherwise seem less important. No part of the body is less important, all are important and necessary. If the foot says I am not part of the body because I am not a hand; that does not make it any less a part of the body. And so is the body of Christ, all parts in the body of Christ are important and not less important. If one part suffers, all parts suffer with it and if one part is honored, all the parts are glad.
Furthermore, Apostles, Prophets, Teacher, Evangelists and Pastors are part of the body of Christ and so must work together as one. Not everyone is a prophet, likewise not everyone is an apostle. Not everyone can operate in this five fold ministry, that is why each must come together and work together to make the body of Christ move forward and bring glory to GOD;s name. Eventually, the reverse is the case in most churches, they are jealous of each other’s anointing, a teacher proofs he can operate as a prophet, a prophet calls himself an apostle; and so on. With this the body of Christ cannot stand, it will be divided and the body of Christ should be one, and not divided. Workers in his vineyard are also part of the body of Christ, they should do what they ought to do, and not be forced or compelled to do the work of GOD. The bible said cursed be he that does the work of GOD deceitfully, there is a great reward for us doing his work with the whole of our heart. We are one, the body of Christ should unite. GOD bless his Church and the gate of hell shall not prevail. Stay Blessed!
WORK ON THE WORD 2! David knew the essence of working on GOD’s word. He wrote in Psalm 33 vs. 4 (NIV): For the word of the LORD is right and true, he is faithful in all he does. He also hid GOD’s word in his heart that he might not sin against HIM. Psalm 119 vs. 11: Your words have I hidden in my heart that I might not sin against you. Storing GOD’s word in our heart and doing according to it is working on the word. Keeping GOD’s commandment is working on his word. Proverbs 7 vs. 1-2: My sons, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with you. Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of your eye. Furthermore, working on GOD’s word is being the hearer and doer of the word. James wrote in James 1 vs. 22-24: But be you doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer; he is like to a man beholding his natur...
