Come Out from Among Them!

 Come Out from Among Them!

“Come out from among them and be separate,” says the Lord. “Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you” (2 Corinthians 6:17). This call to consecration is more than a pursuit of personal holiness. It’s about alignment, purpose, and spiritual authority.

To consecrate yourself means to be set apart for God’s use. It’s a deliberate turning away from anything including, patterns, or places, that pollute your spirit, distract your purpose, or defile your assignment. Many of us are praying for breakthrough, healing, clarity, or promotion, yet we’ve never taken inventory of our connections.

Let me say this with love and urgency. Some of you must let go of certain people to walk in purity and power. Psalm 24:3–4 asks, “Who may ascend the hill of the Lord? Who may stand in His holy place?” The answer: “The one who has clean hands and a pure heart.” You cannot ascend while entangled in misaligned relationships. You cannot carry the weight of God’s glory with compromised agreements.

Leadership matters. Relationships matter. Alignment matters. Agreement matters. The people you allow into your life affect more than your emotion. They shape your:

• Time – generational impact
• Land – territorial influence
• Community – local, state, and national engagement
• Birthright – family and bloodline legacy
• Office – your calling and authority in Christ

Wrong associations corrupt good character (1 Corinthians 15:33). But the right ones unlock destiny.

This is a season to repent for unhealthy alignments- not only with people you were never meant to walk with, but also with those who were right for a previous season but are no longer aligned with God’s direction for your life. Some assignments you picked up were never yours to carry. Some covenants God never approved.

It’s time to release what does not or no longer align with your consecration and calling.

Joshua told the Israelites, “Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do amazing things among you” (Joshua 3:5). The wonders of tomorrow hinge on the obedience of today.

You cannot walk in full authority while yoked to what God is asking you to release. You cannot steward Kingdom solutions while bound by soulish ties. Some relationships must end for consecration to begin. Some doors must close for Heaven’s gate to open.

This is not about judgment. It’s about stewardship of your calling, your spirit, your fruitfulness, and your truth.

Ask yourself:

• Who am I in agreement with?
• What have I tolerated that God told me to sever?
• Where are my alignments leading me?

Check your associations and consecrate yourself.
Come out from among them. Let the Holy Spirit sanctify your heart, your circle, and your steps. God is preparing you to stand. So get clean, get clear, and get in position.

Church ≠ Ekklesia ≠ Kingdom

Today, the words church, ekklesia, and kingdom are often used as if they mean the same thing—but they do not. Each of these speaks to a distinct reality in God's divine blueprint. Understanding the difference is essential for believers who want to grow in spiritual maturity and partner with Heaven effectively.

 The Church: A Mixed Multitude

 

The Church is the Body of Christ (1 Corinthians 12:27), the Bride of Christ (Revelation 19:7), and includes a mixed multitude—similar to what we see in Exodus 12:38, where people of different levels of faith left Egypt with the Israelites. In the Church today, we find both devoted disciples and casual attendees—believers at different stages of growth.

 

Paul uses several Greek terms to describe these stages:

• Nēpios (νήπιος) – infants or immature believers (Galatians 4:1–3). They are heirs, but not yet ready to walk in authority.
• Paidion (παιδίον) – little children (1 John 2:13), needing guidance and protection.
• Teknon (τέκνον) – maturing sons and daughters (Romans 8:16), growing in faith but not yet walking in full spiritual responsibility.
• Huios (υἱός) – mature sons (Romans 8:14). These are led by the Spirit and entrusted with Kingdom authority.

The Church includes all of the above, but not all are ready for governance or spiritual leadership. As Paul wrote, “In a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay…” (2 Timothy 2:20–21). Spiritual maturity and sanctification determine whether a believer becomes a vessel of honor—useful for the Master and prepared for Kingdom assignments.

The Ekklesia: The Called-Out Governing Body

 

The Ekklesia (ἐκκλησία) is not just the general Church, but a called-out body of mature believers. The Ekklesia is called out from among the mixed multitude of Believers. The word Ekklesia was used in ancient Greek culture to describe an assembly of citizens who held governmental authority. When Jesus said, “I will build My Ekklesia” (Matthew 16:18), He wasn’t referring to a weekly meeting, building or assembly of casual Believers—but to a governing council of spiritually mature individuals who would represent Heaven on Earth. The Ekklesia is built upon apostolic doctrine and prophetic revelation. The apostles and prophets are the foundational ministry gifts of the Ekklesia.

 

This remnant is composed of:

 

Huios – those who have grown in character, obedience, and intimacy with the Father (Romans 8:14; Galatians 4:1–7). This includes both lay and ordained Believers who are led by the Spirit and marked by spiritual maturity. Lay Servant Leaders, Elders, Deacons, and Bishops—when truly ordained by God—operate from this place of sonship, governed by love, wisdom, and alignment with God’s will.

 

Martus (μάρτυς) – witnesses who live sacrificial lives, willing to die to self and, if necessary, physically for Christ (Acts 1:8; Revelation 12:11). This includes Servant leaders—both lay and ordained—who carry the cross daily (Luke 9:23), standing as bold intercessors and witnesses of the risen Lord. Their authority is not in a title but in their testimony and surrendered living.

 

Fathers – those who disciple others into maturity (1 Corinthians 4:15), not based on gender but on spiritual reproduction and legacy. This includes the five-fold ministry gifts—Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors, and Teachers (Ephesians 4:11–13)—whose God-ordained purpose is to equip the saints and mature the Body. Fathers also include seasoned spiritual mentors and disciple-makers, whether titled or not, who help form Christ in others and build generational impact.

Church Father Ignatius of Antioch, writing in the early 2nd century, emphasized the importance of spiritual maturity and unity under godly leadership in the Ekklesia. He warned against those who remained in childish ways, disconnected from obedience to the revelation of Christ and the apostles’ teaching.

 

The Ekklesia binds and looses (Matthew 18:18), releases Kingdom decrees, and governs in intercession, wisdom, and authority. Think of it this way—would a natural nation allow toddlers or adolescents to make laws or lead armies? Of course not. In the same way, God entrusts Kingdom governance to those who are mature in Christ.

 

The Kingdom: The Rule and Reign of God

 

The Kingdom is broader than both Church and Ekklesia. The Hebrew word malkuth (מַלְכוּת) and the Greek word basileia (βασιλεία) both speak of royal dominion, rule, and reign. The Kingdom is wherever God’s rule is established—across people, places, systems, and structures. Jesus preached the Gospel of the Kingdom (Matthew 4:17), not just the Gospel of salvation. The Kingdom transforms not only hearts, but families, cities, economies, and cultures. It is a present and advancing reality (Luke 17:21), and it will one day be fully revealed (Revelation 11:15). Not all in the Church are operating in Kingdom principles. Not all in the Ekklesia understand the fullness of the Kingdom. But the Kingdom is the ultimate reality. The Church is within the Kingdom. The Ekklesia helps govern and advance it.

 

In Summary

• The Church is the family of God—wide, diverse, and growing—but often mixed and sometimes immature.
• The Ekklesia is the mature remnant—governing sons, priests and kings (ambassadors of the King) who carry Kingdom authority.
• The Kingdom is God’s reign in every sphere—individual lives, communities, governments, education, business, and more.

 Understanding these distinctions helps us answer God's call with clarity. Let’s not settle for being spectators in the Church when God is calling us to maturity in the Ekklesia—and inviting us to partner with Him in advancing His Kingdom on Earth.

Court is in Session

 The Court Is in Session: Will You Testify?

Imagine a massive courtroom—not in any earthly city, but in the heavens. Thrones are set in place. Books are opened. The Ancient of Days takes His seat. This is no dream. It's real. Daniel saw it in a vision (Daniel 7:9–10). John saw it too—scrolls, elders, angels, worship, and the Lamb who was worthy to open the seals (Revelation 4–5). Even in Job 1, we see a glimpse of this heavenly courtroom, where the accuser, Satan, presents his case.

Satan is still accusing. He attacks God’s character and questions the faithfulness of God’s people. Revelation 12:10 calls him the “accuser of our brothers and sisters.” In Malachi 3:13, the people even complain against God, asking, “What’s the point of serving Him?” Psalm 73 shows the inner battle of one who almost gave up, seeing the wicked thrive while the righteous suffer.

But God doesn't argue. He doesn’t panic. He calls witnesses.

“You are My witnesses,” He says in Isaiah 43:10. Jesus echoes this in Acts 1:8: “You will receive power... and you will be my witnesses.” Not just with words, but with lives set on fire. With works that shine. In John 5:36, Jesus said, “The works I do testify of Me.” And through the Holy Spirit, our very lives testify too (Romans 8:16).

In dark times, light shines brighter. Isaiah 60 says, “Arise, shine, for your light has come... Nations will come to your light.” Philippians 2:15 says we “shine like stars,” holding out the Word of life. And 1 Peter 3:15 reminds us to always be ready to give a reason for the hope we have.

Church Father Augustine said, “History is God’s courtroom; human events testify to His justice and mercy.” Tertullian wrote that Christians are witnesses who defend God's truth before a hostile world.

The trial is happening now.

Will you rise as a witness of Jesus — not just in word, but in power, love, and truth? Let your life be the evidence. Let your voice be heard in heaven’s court. The world is watching. Heaven is listening. The court is in session. Will you testify?

The Power of Communion: 7 Aspects That Deepen Our Faith

Communion is more than just a tradition—it’s a powerful act of faith that connects us to Jesus and strengthens our walk with Him. In his book The Power of Communion, Derek Prince highlights seven key aspects of this sacred practice. Let’s explore these truths and how they shape our understanding of the Lord’s Supper.

1. Proclamation: Declaring Jesus’ Death

Each time we take Communion, we proclaim Jesus’ death and the salvation it brings. This isn’t just for us—it’s a declaration to the world and the spiritual realm. Paul writes, “For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes.” (1 Corinthians 11:26)

2. Remembrance: Honoring His Sacrifice

Jesus told His disciples to remember Him through Communion. The bread represents His broken body, and the cup represents His shed blood. “Do this in remembrance of Me.” (Luke 22:19) When we take Communion, we reflect on His great love and sacrifice for us.

3. Anticipation: Looking Forward to His Return

Communion isn’t just about the past—it points to the future. Jesus said He wouldn’t drink of the vine again until He does so with us in His Kingdom. “I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father’s kingdom.” (Matthew 26:29) Each time we partake, we anticipate His glorious return.

4. Recognition: Seeing the Body of Christ

Communion reminds us that we are part of Christ’s body—the Church. Paul warns that failing to recognize this can lead to spiritual weakness. “For the one who eats and drinks, eats and drinks judgment to himself if he does not properly recognize the body.” (1 Corinthians 11:29) We must value and love one another as fellow members of Christ’s body.

5. Participation: Sharing in Christ’s Work

Communion is a way of sharing in the blessings of Jesus’ death and resurrection. We are united with Him in His sacrifice and victory. “Is the cup of blessing which we bless not a sharing in the blood of Christ?” (1 Corinthians 10:16) When we take the Lord’s Supper, we reaffirm our commitment to Him.

6. Sharing: Fellowship with Believers

Communion isn’t meant to be taken alone—it’s a family meal for the body of Christ. “Since there is one loaf, we who are many are one body; for we all partake of the one loaf.” (1 Corinthians 10:17) This reminds us that we are all one in Christ, sharing in His grace and love.

7. Separation: A Call to Holiness

Taking Communion is also a call to separate ourselves from sin. Paul warns against mixing our devotion to Christ with worldly influences. “You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons.” (1 Corinthians 10:21) The Lord’s Table reminds us to stay devoted to God.

Embracing the Power of Communion

Communion is a gift from Jesus—an opportunity to reflect on His sacrifice, renew our faith, and connect with fellow believers. As we take the bread and cup, let’s do so with reverence, anticipation, and gratitude for the incredible love of our Savior.

As you daily prepare your heart for Communion, embrace it as a sacred moment of deep connection with Christ. Reflect on His sacrifice, rejoice in His victory, and anticipate His glorious return.

Intercessors: The Lord’s Battle Axe

"You are My battle-axe and weapons of war: for with you, I will break the nations in pieces; with you, I will destroy kingdoms." – Jeremiah 51:20  

In every great move of God, there have always been intercessors—hidden warriors who fight on their knees before revival reaches the streets. They are the unseen forces who break spiritual chains, tear down strongholds, and prepare the way for the harvest. The world may never know their names, but heaven records every tear, every travail, and every breakthrough won in prayer.

Just as a blacksmith forges a battle axe with heat and hammer, God shapes intercessors through fiery trials and deep intimacy with Him. These are His weapons of war—His chosen vessels to shift nations and shake history.

The Power of Hidden Intercessors 

History tells us about great preachers, teachers, revivalists and evangelists, but what about the ones who prayed behind the scenes? Let’s look at five lesser-known but mighty intercessors whose prayers paved the way for revival.

1. Daniel Nash – The Prayer Force Behind Charles Finney

Daniel Nash wasn’t a famous preacher, but he was a powerful intercessor. Before Charles Finney would hold revival meetings, Nash would arrive in town weeks ahead, renting a room and shutting himself in with God. He groaned in the Spirit, sometimes refusing food, until heaven’s floodgates opened.

Finney later said that his success was largely because of Nash’s prayers. Thousands were saved, and entire towns were transformed. Like Elijah on Mount Carmel (1 Kings 18:42-45), Nash travailed in prayer until the rain of revival fell.

2. Pearl Goode – Covering Billy Graham’s Crusades in Prayer

Pearl Goode, an elderly woman with no fame or platform, made it her mission to pray for Billy Graham’s evangelistic crusades. While others filled stadiums, she filled hotel rooms with intercession. Sometimes she prayed through the night, contending for souls to be saved.

The result? Millions encountered Christ through Graham’s ministry. Like Anna the prophetess (Luke 2:36-38), Goode spent her life in prayer, preparing the way for Jesus to be revealed.

3. Rees Howells – Interceding for World War II and Missionaries

Rees Howells understood that prayer could change the course of history. During World War II, he led a company of intercessors who prayed for God’s intervention. His prayers are credited with influencing key battles and breakthroughs against Hitler’s forces.

Beyond war, Howells raised up missionaries through the Bible College of Wales, sending them into the nations. His life reflected the power of praying without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17).

4. Frank Bartleman – The Prayer Fire Before Azusa Street

Before the Azusa Street Revival, Frank Bartleman was praying in the trenches. He fasted, wept, and cried out for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. When revival came, people from all over the world gathered to experience Pentecost afresh.

Bartleman’s story teaches us that every great move of God is birthed through prayer and supplication (Acts 1:14).

5. Basilea Schlink – Repentance and Revival in Germany

After World War II, Basilea Schlink interceded for Germany’s spiritual healing and restoration. She called for deep repentance, knowing that revival begins when hearts turn back to God. Her prayers sparked a movement of reconciliation and holiness, impacting people across nations.

Schlink’s life echoes 2 Chronicles 7:14: “If My people, who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray…”

Intercessors Are God’s Weapons of War

The Bible tells us that we do not wrestle against flesh and blood (Ephesians 6:12). Every spiritual battle requires intercessors who will stand in the gap (Ezekiel 22:30). These hidden warriors are the Lord’s battle axes, breaking demonic strongholds and advancing the kingdom of God.

How Can You Be an Effective Intercessor?

1. Pray with Expectation – Believe that God hears and answers your prayers (Mark 11:24).
2. Stand in the Gap – Intercede for your city, nation, and leaders (1 Timothy 2:1-2).
3. Fast for Breakthrough – Some victories only come through prayer and fasting (Matthew 17:21).
4. Stay Hidden in God’s Presence. Be Powerful in Prayer– You don’t need a platform; God moves through secret prayer (Matthew 6:6).
5. Be Led by the Holy Spirit – Allow the Spirit to guide your intercession (Romans 8:26).

WILL YOU TAKE YOUR PLACE?

Now more than ever, God is calling intercessors to arise. He is searching for those who will stand in the gap on behalf of their families, churches, and nations (Ezekiel 22:30). Will He find you faithful in prayer?

You may never stand on a stage or have your name in history books, but your prayers shift eternity.

Will you take your place as an intercessor? Will you fight in prayer for the next great move of God?

Let’s take our place on the frontlines. Let’s pray until revival comes.

Love: The Heart of it All

February is a month full of reminders of love—thanks to Valentine's Day. Everywhere we turn, we see messages of romantic love, friendship, and kindness. But as Christians, we’re called to reflect on a deeper, more lasting love—the kind of love that flows from God and shapes every part of our lives. In Galatians 5:22-23, we read about the fruit of the Spirit, and at the heart of that fruit is love. But did you know that when we dig deeper into these verses, we see that love is the root, and all the other virtues flow from it? This month, let’s take a closer look at how love defines the fruit of the Spirit and how it shapes our relationships with God and others.

When reading the Bible, it's important to consider how the text was originally written and how it has been translated over time. In the early stages of the Bible’s history, especially with the scrolls and manuscripts, there were no chapters or verses as we have them today. The Bible was written in continuous scrolls, and later, scholars and translators added chapter and verse numbers, along with punctuation, to help people read and understand it more easily. However, these changes—like punctuation—can sometimes shift how we interpret a passage.

Take Galatians 5:22-23, for example. It says:

"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control."

If we read this as "the fruit of the Spirit is love: joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control", with the punctuation breaking it down like this, it reveals something powerful: Love is the central fruit, and the other qualities—joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—are all different expressions or facets of that one fruit, love.

This interpretation unlocks a deeper understanding: love is the root, and all the other virtues stem from it. It's not that the Spirit produces nine separate fruits, but rather one fruit with many aspects. This interpretation connects with biblical intertextuality, meaning that this passage is linked to other parts of Scripture where love is described and explained in more detail.

For example, 1 John 4:7-8 says:

"Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God, for God is love."

This tells us that love is foundational to our relationship with God. It also shows us that God Himself is the source of all love. Love is not just a feeling or an action—it is the essence of God’s nature, and when we live according to the Spirit, we are reflecting that love in the world.

Additionally, 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 provides a well-known description of love:

"Love is patient, love is kind; it does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails."

This passage from 1 Corinthians expands on what love looks like in action. It shows that love is not just a feeling, but a choice and a way of living. It is patient, kind, humble, and forgiving. This list closely mirrors the virtues in Galatians 5:22-23, where we see how love in the form of patience, kindness, gentleness, and self-control is meant to shape how we interact with others.

So, in a broader theological and scholarly context, these passages together teach us that love is the central fruit of the Spirit. It is the defining characteristic of a believer's life. Love is not just one thing among many, but the very source from which all other Christian virtues flow. When we live in the Spirit, we reflect God's love in the world—both in our actions and in our character.

By recognizing this, we understand that the Christian life isn’t just about obeying rules or living with certain traits. It’s about allowing God’s love to fill our hearts and overflow into every part of our lives, making us more like Christ. This idea is not only consistent with the teachings of Paul in Galatians but also aligns with the broader biblical message found in 1 John and 1 Corinthians.

While the chapters, verses, and punctuation were added later to help with reading and understanding, we must always be mindful that these changes can sometimes influence how we interpret the text. Reading Galatians 5:22-23 with the understanding that love is the root and the other virtues are its expressions can enrich our understanding of how the Holy Spirit works in our lives and points us to the deeper biblical truths about love found throughout Scripture.

As we reflect on the true meaning of love this February, let’s challenge ourselves to live out the fruit of the Spirit in our daily lives. Share this post with a friend, or take a moment to meditate on how God’s love is moving in your heart. How can you allow the love of God to shape your actions, your patience, your kindness, and even your self-control? Let’s make this month not just about celebrating love, but about growing in the love that reflects Christ to the world around us.

The Lord is Flexing His Strong Hand!

 God is about to "flex" on His enemies, and when He does, it will be through His full-grown sons—those who have matured in their faith, as outlined in Romans 8. These are not children in the sense of immaturity but individuals who have fully embraced their inheritance as heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ. Through these mature believers, God is going to display His power, sovereignty, and authority in ways that will shake the earth and bring glory to His name. He has given us dominion, delegated authority, and a responsibility to bring His kingdom to earth.

Romans 8:19-21 says, “For the earnest expectation of creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.” This passage shows that creation itself is eagerly waiting for these full-grown sons of God—mature believers—to step into their full authority and manifest God’s power in the world. When God moves, He will do so through His people—those who walk in the dominion He gave all of humanity from the beginning (Genesis 1:28). While God will primarily work through His children, He will also use assets and allies who may not be followers of Christ. We have been given authority over all the works of His hands, and God is about to demonstrate that authority through His sons, assets, and allies in a way that will be undeniable.

God’s “flex” isn’t just about displaying raw power or an outpouring of glory for spectacle’s sake. It is a declaration of His victory over His enemies: the sinful flesh that keeps people bound, the backslidden believers who have strayed, the unbelievers who reject Jesus and His salvation, the corrupt leaders who mislead God’s people, the forces of darkness, and the corrupt systems of this world. God is about to move in such a way that His children will exercise the dominion He has already given us, and as they do, the enemies of God will be dethroned, defamed, and brought to shame.

Let’s start by addressing the flesh—the sinful nature that still holds sway in many believers' lives. Isaiah 53:10-12 speaks of how Jesus bore our sins so that we might be healed. Through His children, God is bringing deliverance, healing, and restoration to His people. When God moves, He will empower His children to overcome sin, break free from addictions, and live in the freedom that Jesus purchased for us on the cross.

Next, God’s "flex" will also deal with the backslidden believer—the one who has strayed from His ways. Psalm 32:10-11 says, “Many sorrows shall be to the wicked; but he who trusts in the Lord, mercy shall surround him.” God desires for His people to return to Him, and He will use His children to call the backslidden to repentance, bringing healing and restoration to those who have wandered. The power of the Holy Spirit will flow through believers, reviving those who have fallen away and calling them back to their first love in Christ.

Now let’s turn to the unbelievers—those who reject Jesus and His salvation. God desires that none should perish but that all should come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9). In Isaiah 9:18-21, we see a world in rebellion against God, but God is moving to bring His light to those in darkness. Through His children, God will use the church to preach the gospel, heal the sick, raise the dead, restore the marginalized and disenfranchised, cast out demons, teach, train, and equip people groups, and transform systems, structures, territories, and regions. The victory over sin and unbelief will be made visible as God works through His people, calling all who will receive to repentance and faith in Christ.

God is also about to address the corrupt leaders and false teachers. Ephesians 5:11 tells us to “have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them.” God is raising up His children to expose falsehoods and remove leaders who have misled His people. These leaders will be held accountable, and their influence will be dismantled. God’s judgment will remove those who have corrupted His people and misrepresented His kingdom.

Let’s now turn to the forces of darkness—Satan and the demonic powers that have wreaked havoc in the world. Colossians 2:15 says, “Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.” Through the cross, Jesus already defeated the powers of darkness, and now He is about to put that victory on display through His children. We, as His people, are called to walk in the authority He has delegated to us. When we exercise this authority, the devil and his demons will be publicly exposed as the defeated enemies they are.

Finally, God is about to deal with the corrupt systems of this world—governments, institutions, and structures that oppose His kingdom. Micah 1:3-5 speaks of God’s judgment coming upon the earth to remove these corrupt powers, and in Ephesians 6:12, we are reminded that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. God has given us the power to confront these systems of darkness. As His children, we are called to stand firm in the armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-20) and enforce God’s rule on earth. When God moves, His power will work through His people to dismantle the structures of sin and oppression.

God is about to display His glory in a mighty way, but He’s not doing it alone. He is doing it through His full-grown sons—His witnesses—those who have been entrusted with dominion and authority. As joint heirs with Christ, we share in His victory and are called to manifest His power on earth. Through us, God will defeat His enemies, restore His people, and establish His kingdom. When God moves, His glory will fill the earth, and His children will rise up to demonstrate that He is the true King, the Most High, and the Lord of all.
