Walking by faith
We walk by faith, our Father puts the land under our feet after we begin to walk, believing by faith that it is there first.
Try explaining that to the unsaved world, to the world it is illogical,
they must see the land before they step out onto it, so they never see it.
We do see it because we first believed.
Why couldn't we see the truth before we were saved?
Is it because our enemy had us so convinced that the “real world” his world, is reality. We were so convinced that we couldn’t see anything else, we could see no reason to believe there was anything else. Our enemy just had to keep us interested in his world so we wouldn’t ask questions, just poodle along, accepting of the status quo and apparent reality. Oblivious of the illusion we were living in,
even though we were blind, empty and lost.
But we remember now the voice of God, gently very gently calling from behind the veil, trying to get our attention like a gentleman. But we were not listening were we?
ARE WE NOW?
Who can tell us that our own children are bad, no one?
We will fight for our kids’ even when we know deep down they may be wrong.
There is no logic to that loyalty, it’s just bred in us, it’s in our genes.
Equally why when as your brother in Christ I tell you this truth, is it uncomfortable, something in our genes?
What?
If I’m crazy, pity me, pray for me, love me, but what else do you feel?
Have I offended you, how?
Are we attached to this illusion in some way?
Perhaps the tiny micro blocks (pixels) that have been carefully built on top of one another over a long period of time to create this exaordinary back-drop and illusion
that we have made our comfortable home.
We have to ask and believe in the possibility of the unbelievable.
We have to ask the same questions just as we did the day we were born again, because honestly, does this disunity make any sense at all?
Does any one of us want it? Wouldn't we change it if we could?
WHAT IS THE TRUTH WITH THIS DISUNITY IN THE CHURCH?
Of course it is not possible to see outside or our next step, until we first believe.
If we believe and walk in faith that we are ONE, we will most definately see it all,
and we will recognize each brush stroke and each micro block,
and marvel at how we once used to believe
in our own disunity, as our reality.
