Today has been a very different day ; in soooo many ways.
I will however explain, or attempt to explain the one thing I believe the Lord has laid on my heart to share with you.
This morning, during worship at Montgomery Assembly of God in Cincinnati Ohio, where I fellowship regularly; the Lord spoke to me ever so clearly about the absolute need for all of us to lift each other up in prayer. You can actually see me share under the anointing during the worship service here by clicking on this link and watching the worship service. (it is about 1/3 of the way through) http://www.montgomeryag.org/new/video/20091025_1045_400w.htm
I was on my knees on my face during a very anointed worship service. I was surrounded by women of God and the presence of the Lord was soooo very strong. My eyes were closed and the sweet aroma of heaven permeated the air all around us. I heard so very clearly the strong and yet very still voice of the Lord say to me.... "Amy. These are your angels."
I knew the Lord was speaking of the women who had taken it upon themselves to come pray for me as I knelt before the altar in worship.
You see I had just received a bad report for the doctor this last week and had shared it with my brothers and sisters during service for the purpose of receiving prayer.
To be perfectly honest, I am not good at this kinda stuff. I normally try to handle it on my own. But this one is a biggy. The word tells us we need to come to the elders of the church and be anointed with oil and be prayed over. So that is what I did......And the Lord blesssssssssssssssed me!!!! Big time!
We are not meant to carry our burdens on our own! The Word says to cast our cares upon them LORD for HE cares for us!...(Peter 5:7)....and...Jesus said, ....."my yoke is easy and my burden is light…" (Matthew 11:28-30)
WE are the BODY of Christ!!!!
That is why Jesus had to leave...so HE could finsih what HE started through US!
I am excited at what the Lord revealed to me in to me today. The importance of OUR IMPORTANCE in EACH OTHERS LIFE'S!
I want to encourage you never to under estimate anything you may do for anyone, ever!!!
You may not see it, the out come, but it may change someones world forever!!!!
Most importantly....it may change their life eternally!!!
Please don't get me wrong here....I don't believe there is anything wrong with seeing the glory of God revealed in many different ways as well as seeing His Angels. On the contrary, I believe you can. I have myself and praise God for those times!!! However for the purpose of what I believe the Lord is doing in the body of Christ; more specifically, in my life right now I trully do think the Lord would have us to focus on each others role as "actual" virtual members of HIS body when reaching out to each other; to make more of a relational connection with each other and in doing so more of a connection with Him.
Simply put.....we need to realize every little thing we do for each other has a master consequence. Matthew 25:40
The little things we do sometimes
To lift each other out of the blues
The little things we do sometimes
To make each other’s day
A smile ~ A flower ~ A note ~ A word
Taking time to pray
The little things we do sometimes
May still look small when their work is through
The little things we do sometimes
May not seem like an important part of our day
A smile ~ A flower ~ A note ~ A word
Taking time to pray
How can I express to you
Just how very important these little things are?
Taking the time to follow through
To do and act and say
A smile ~ A flower ~ A note ~ A word
Taking time to pray
**
“Cast your care on the Lord for cares for you”
We are the body of Christ.
The little things I do for you
He does for you through me
A smile ~ A flower ~ A note ~ A word
Now do you see?
**
Each one of us does something small
In and of itself
Together as the whole body of Christ
It works its healing wealth
A smile ~ A flower ~ A note ~ A word
Taking time to pray
The little things we do sometimes
Really aren’t so small
Each one big
In its own special way
A smile ~ A flower ~ A note ~ A word
Taking time to pray
Thank you
