During a ministry trip to Abbotsford, B.C. I sensed in my spirit a word from the Lord. As I began to share the word with Gord, we felt a strong presence of Holy Spirit in the vehicle and I new that I should journal what I was hearing. My notes follow.
I felt that the Lord said that it was time for our physical bodies to come under the authority of Christ by allowing our spiritual nature to have ascendancy over our minds and bodies. At the same time, our minds must also come fully under the authority of Christ. To leave out the spiritual and magnify the mind will leave us satisfied with a religion of history, ethics and ideals. We must fully and unwaveringly believe that our God is a God of miracles and our minds must come under the authority of Christ in this area. The body (personal and corporate) is being called to a higher level of spiritual discipline in the days to come in order to walk in higher authority, to move in signs and wonders, to see miracles, to love well, to serve well, to lead well and to disciple well.
As well, our families must come into alignment with the biblical pattern for families – it affords far more protection than we could possibly imagine – husbands love your wives, wives submit, children obey, do not exasperate, submit to one another. There is huge authority and protection in the very doing and a need for radical adherence to the biblical pattern in the days to come.
Ephesians 6:1-41 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. “Honor your father and mother”-which is the first commandment with a promise- “that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth.”
“Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.”
Ephesians 5:21-25
“Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. “Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her”
For the corporate body - what you are ultimately contending for is the establishment of Christ as the Head and final authority of the individual, the home, the family, the church body, programs, departments, teams, leadership teams, gifts, skills, strategies, plans, properties and structures. This is about end time harvesters working together, networking together, developing together, serving together in the gifts, callings, and roles that He has made each one of us for and laying down our lives together for His purposes in the remaining days before His return. These are the signs that will follow as Jesus Christ is truly made Head:
1. All men will be drawn (huge evangelism)
2. Clear communication
3. Unity in diversity
4. Abundance - of servants, resources, new believers, health, finances, favour
f. Miracles, signs and wonders
5. Increased authority in the NAME of JESUS
6. Personal obedience
7. Camaraderie and fellowship
8. Love
For the city and the nation – Mark it - there will be a visible nation wide increase in Kingdom conflict – Godly authority coming into conflict with demonic rebellion (like will attract like and the power released in these open acts of rebellion will be increased) – this will be reflected in shocking headlines, news programs, radio broadcasts and magazine articles BUT for the believer, there will be no stopping those who walk in Godly authority (divine authority structure) which, begins with the individual, the family and the church. Nothing will be impossible to those who remain in Christ Jesus.
