Of the increase of his government and
peace there shall be no end... (Isaiah 9:7).
The Church of Jesus Christ isn’t a mere organization
or association of worshippers. It’s God’s agency
for executing His will and agenda across the nations. The
Church is the pillar and ground of Truth (1 Timothy 3:15).
Everything God wants to do in a nation, He initiates
through the Church, which is His body (Ephesians 1:22-23)
and you’re a member of that body: “Now ye are the body
of Christ, and members in particular” (1 Corinthians
12:27). This means you’re part of something global and
divine, something powerful, full of glory and dominion.
When Jesus said I will build my Church and the gates
of hell shall not prevail against it, He emphasized the
dominion and supremacy of the Church over hell, Satan
and the forces of darkness. God put all things under the
feet of the Church: “And hath put all things under his
feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to
the church, Which is his body, the fulness of him that
filleth all in all” (Ephesians 1:22-23). How glorious this is!
Can you see why no one in the Church should be a
weakling or live as a victim? We’re the expressions of His
reality, of His fullness, His grace, glory, Kingdom, power
and personality. Glory to God! We hold the keys. We carry
His divine presence and authority. Through the Church,
God enforces righteousness in the earth and unveils His
manifold wisdom to angelic beings and principalities: “To
the intent that now unto the principalities and powers
in heavenly places might be known by the church the
manifold wisdom of God” (Ephesians 3:10).
Take your place in the Church; contribute to its growth,
strength and expansion. Ephesians 4:16 (NIV) says,
“From him the whole body, joined and held together by
every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up
in love, as each part does its work.” Participate actively
in soul-winning. Think impact; be effectual for Christ in
your world, for He wants to change the world through you.
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for placing me in the Body
of Christ to be a vital part of your strategy for global
transformation. I take my place, functioning effectively
and contributing to the expansion of your work on earth,
enforcing your righteousness in the earth and impacting
the world with your glory and presence, in Jesus’ Name.
Amen.
