There are many now who are running to and fro,
but without knowledge. And there are many now with knowledge that are not running to and fro.
There are those that I have commissioned and anointed to perform specific tasks within the body of
Christ in order to bring a cohesiveness. There are others who are being prepared, some in the midst
of crowds, some in solitary places. So there is much diversity and there are many voices and many
are saying different things. This is producing confusion within the body of Christ as many are hearkening to voice after voice speaking contradictory things.
So because of this there have been some who
have withdrawn from these arenas of confusion in order to seek My face and in order to hear My voice
and to do those things that are given to them specifically to accomplish within My church. There are
others, who for various reasons, filter out the things that they don’t want to hear and focus
in on those things that they want to hear that are in agreement with their own private thoughts and
desires and activities.
This mass of confusion which prevails in My body
at this present moment is not of Me, says the Lord. Rather it is the product of a mix of different parts
of the body not understanding and respecting the functions of others within My body. Not everyone
is an eye, not every one is an ear. Jealousy towards those who have been called and anointed to do
things that do not have the visibility of others is nothing less than the flesh. There is much denial of
self which must come about. There is much self-control that must be exercised, for without self-control nothing shall be accomplished in My body.
Evangelization of souls, the in-gathering of souls
into My kingdom, lies heavy upon My heart and all these fleshly activities and attitudes are being
used by the enemy in order to continue to fan the flames of emotions and personal goals. And I will
not have it so.
For you will not reach the state of spiritual development that you desire as My child without first crucifying your flesh and allowing Me to do a work
within you in order that I may resurrect you into a new glory. While the world focuses upon the flesh,
you, My church, must focus upon that which is spiritual.
For I shall have a harvest, says the Lord, and you
shall be the instruments by which I bring in My harvest. And it is a harvest of souls, it is a harvest
of those whose focus is upon the fulfilment of their fleshly desires. You cannot be identified with
them and present yourself as My child while you are in the same state of fleshly desires for those
things which would bring you temporal satisfaction.
You must refocus and set your spiritual vision
upon My Son, Jesus Christ, and understand the crucifixion of His flesh unto His glory that you might
put into proper perspective the work that must be done within each one of you. No flesh shall glory
in My presence. As you crucify your flesh and are resurrected into a new spiritual building, thus you
shall enter into My presence.
I urge you now, pick up your cross and pursue
the glory that comes from your spiritual resurrection into My presence, says the Lord. Come unto
me, for My burden is light and My yoke is easy.
