First, are you a Soldier of The Cross?
Are you willing to be a Living Sacrifice? Is it beautiful to you?
There is tremendous protection in the Body of Christ, but most Christians don't understand their own roles within the Church.
It's not about meeting your expectation of what made you feel great before. It's about where He has assigned you.
The Lord will assign you to an assembly where you need to lay down your life , live before the Brothers and Sisters and pray for depth and revelation. Of course, you can't stay where there is heresy. Nonetheless, history records numerous situations where a single Soldier has planted The Flag of prayer and brought revival.
Have you a list that must be met, or are you available for the death of the flesh? Do you need to have Roast Sermon for Sunday dinner, or are you willing to let the Lord grow the man up by prayer? Is he allowed to make mistakes? After all, He doesn't.
What is your role? Be there every time the door is open. Today's large churches are divided into small groups. A matter so, so hard for me. But, can it be an assignment of the Lord? Can you pray for and love ten people that might be assigned to you and you to them? Whose to say the Lord didn't design this for today?
I have a serious issue with the "worship" and the contemporary music. I'm sixty-four. I recognize I don't have a right or the where-with-all to change the system, but I do know I have been assigned to lay down my life for the Brethren and pray my brains out.
What about you?
Tell Him. Aloud.
