Just these past few days, God has really been laying on my heart how much he grieves at the division in the church. All this division sure makes me sick at least. I'm tired of people arguing over stupid things. It's time to get back to the what we believe in as Christians- that God loved us, gave us His Son for our sins, and that he longs to keep working in our lives today. That's all there is simply. And we as humans have destroyed that simplicity with all this crap. Just stupid crap. It divides the church. The church is not one body. We need to pull together! Satan is toying with us! He knows our weaknesses, and he attacks those weaknesses, loosely quoted from C.S. Lewis. It's time for us to realize OUR weakness and depend on God, and stop trying to fix it ourselves by dividing ourselves even more. I've been through 3 or 4 church splits already, and i'm sick of division, and people choosing sides. It's so STUPID. WAKE UP! Choosing sides is not what the church was meant for! We must rise up against this.
Something i've noticed also is that it's always the parents' arguments that are dividing up the church. Almost never the youth. Now, i don't mean to be saying we're better than parents, but i believe we as the youth must start uniting early before we become old and argumentitave. The youth must unite and show the parents that WE WILL NOT BE A CHURCH DIVIDED. There is power in reconciliation, and foremost for this generation is reconciliation between our generation and the parents' generation, for we have rebelled in so many ways. The second most needed is for the church in general. Satan knows this. He tears apart at families and churches. I SAY IT'S TIME TO FIGHT BACK. CHURCH, LET US BE ONE VOICE. LET'S GET SATAN MAD. I'M NOT AFRAID OF IT, BECAUSE MY GOD'S BIGGER THAN SATAN, OR HIS LIES, OR HIS DIVISION. I WON'T HAVE IT ANYMORE.
From now on, i am going to make uniting the church one of my purposes in life. The church can't be having this civil war. We have a REAL war to fight out there, not inside the walls of the church. Oh when, oh when will we rise up.... Shout to the NOrth is stuck in my head...
rise up church with broken wings...
AND WE WILL SHOUT TO THE NORTH AND THE SOUTH
SING TO THE EAST AND THE WEST
JESUS IS SAVIOUR TO ALL
LORD OF HEAVEN AND EARTH...
I await that day... when the church will rise up in one voice with a shout to the Lord our God. I once had a vision of the church of God truly shouting to the Lord, the way He deserves it. I heard the passion in each and every voice... and how it ROARED... THis is what will shake mountains. THe church standing in unity and giving that battle cry to the Lord.... OH JESUS MAY THAT DAY COME SOON.
