Divided: Time for the Church to be the Church

A President was elected to another term of office in the United States. It was a measured victory with half of the nation voting for the other candidate. Such a divided vote speaks to the reality that we are a nation divided on many issues, serious issues, that continue to profoundly change America. We have seen historically what occurs when a nation continually turns from the principles of God's Word to walk in its own ways. I think that this vision of division is in the pews.

"Do not put your trust in princes, in mortal men, who cannot save. When their spirit departs, they return to the ground; on that very day their plans come to nothing. Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord his God" (Psalm 146:3-5). Do not place hope in politics, government, weather, or economics, we are the people whose God is the Lord.
Please remember that we are strangers, pilgrims and aliens here. Hold less to the things of this world, value less things of this world, talk less about the things of this world and more about our great God. Join with Him in His vision that all men everywhere would be saved. When your heart joins with His something happens to the Church- When there is change in our hearts it will effect the body of Christ
We walk in the knowledge that God's plan is marching on. We are the people of another Kingdom. We must join ourselves to Him in His purpose, as we move on with Him. The day and the hour is more critical than we know and our prayers and worship more vital than we perhaps see. It is the time of our arising. It is time to step into a new place in your identity and purpose. Do not be moved by what you see and hear. Keep your eye single and you will be filled with the light of His revelation as we walk
Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God. They are brought to their knees and fall, but we rise up and stand firm (Proverbs 20:7-8).
