Ephesians 2:1-10 and John 17

Ephesians 2: 1 - 10 (KJV)

1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; 2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: 3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. 4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, 5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) 6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: 7 That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

Ephesians 2:1 – 10 (MSG) - He Tore Down the Wall

1-6  It wasn’t so long ago that you were mired in that old stagnant life of sin. You let the world, which doesn’t know the first thing about living, tell you how to live. You filled your lungs with polluted unbelief, and then exhaled disobedience. We all did it, all of us doing what we felt like doing, when we felt like doing it, all of us in the same boat. It’s a wonder God didn’t lose his temper and do away with the whole lot of us. Instead, immense in mercy and with an incredible love, he

embraced us. He took our sin-dead lives and made us alive in Christ. He did all this on his own,with no help from us! Then he picked us up and set us down in highest heaven in company with Jesus, our Messiah.

7-10  Now God has us where he wants us, with all the time in this world and the next to shower grace and kindness upon us in Christ Jesus. Saving is all his idea, and all his work. All we do is trust him enough to let him do it. It’s God’s gift from start to finish! We don’t play the major role. If we did, we’d probably go around bragging that we’d done the whole thing! No, we neither make nor save ourselves. God does both the making and saving. He creates each of us by Christ Jesus to join him in the work he does, the good work he has gotten ready for us to do, work we had better be doing.

The Church - The Authority of the Holy Spirit in the Body of Christ

Join This HeartCry Prayer: Every Monday,Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday 11:30am - 1:30pm (UK time)

Acts 20:28-32 (KJV)

“Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.  For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.  Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears. And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.”

In order to establish God's mandate for the Church, pastors together with other church leaders are to ensure that The Body of Christ is built upon and through the Authority of The Holy Spirit. When The Holy Spirit is given the unlimited expression within the Church, He becomes:

1.      The Defender of our Faith

The Holy Spirit as the guarantee of our inheritance of eternal life defends our faith in Christ Jesus (Ephesians 1:13-14). If allowed, He creates the awareness of this defence and help us to walk in it.

Prayer:

·         Lord please renew the vision of the Church of the truth lost about the Holy Spirit.

·         Open the eyes of the Church to the force of defence attached to the power of The Holy Spirit.

·         Lord, cause a return to the loyalty of The Holy Spirit in all aspects of The Church.

2.      The Inspiration of Our Gathering

The Holy brings about divine guidance, inspires all church services and fellowships. There will be a deliberate surrender to the authority of the Spirit in all areas. (1^st Corinthians 12:4)

Prayer:

·         Lord let the Church have a fresh encounter with the sanctifying work of The Holy Spirit.   (1^st Peter 1:2a)

·         Deliver church leaders from their materialistic focus and intention, sweep out every of their unprofitable work that is hindering the move of The Holy Spirit.

·         Let all authorities in the Church begin to submit and surrender to both the government and the inspiration of The Holy Spirit for church services.

3.      The Bond of Unity Among Brethren
Since we have all been baptised into “One Body” by the Holy Spirit, there will be no need to struggle to achieve our “one mission” through the “same vision” of the Gospel. Nothing will be able to break the tie that binds The Body together in Christ.

Prayer:

·         Lord re-envision the Church about the unity that is in the communion of The Holy Spirit.

·         Let every individual in the Church begin to encounter the beauty and the glory of The Cross afresh.

·         Grant the Church the revelation of the tie that binds the Trinity, as it affects the Body of Christ.

Romans 14:7-9 (KJV)

“For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.  For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's. For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.”

Prayer:

·         Thank You Lord for the Holy Spirit that has achieved both the death and the life of Jesus in us.

·         Lord please dethrone every will of man that is a barrier to the way of The Spirit in the Church.

·         REVEAL AND ACTIVATE THE ORIGINAL WORK OF THE HOLY SPIRIT THAT WILL MAKE THE CHURCH GLORIOUS IN THIS GENERATION.

The Backsliders - The Weak in Faith

Join This HeeartCry Prayer: Every Monday, Tuesday,Wednesday and Friday 11:30am - 1:30pm (UK time)

Hebrews 10:35-39 (KJV)

35 Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward. 36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise. 37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. 38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. 39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

Hebrews 6:1-6 (KJV)

1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, 2 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. 3 And this will we do, if God permit. 4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, 5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, 6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.

2 Thessalonians 2:1-2 (KJV)

1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, 2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.

Matthew 24:12-13 (KJV)

12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

  THE BACKSLIDERS – Hebrews 10:35-39 / 6:1-6

•        “Fall away” – to turn from God to pursue own desires. (Proverbs 14:14a)

                            ***Individual reflective prayers***

         SOME MAJOR CAUSES OF BACKSLIDING FOR “CHRISTIANS”

PRAYER:

•        Lord we plead and ask for a longing that will reconnect backsliders to YOU.

•        Create a sense of loss and an end to self in them oh Lord!

•        Please connect them to the ONLY LIFE and THE TRUE LIGHT – JESUS! (John 1:4-5)

•        Rid them of all traditions of men that have established sins in their lives.

•        Grant them hearts to forgive their offenders within the Body of Christ.

•        Let all that are lost in the far country of hell come back to their MASTER.

•        Lord help them to yield to Heaven's pleadings upon their lives.

 THE WEAK-IN-FAITH -  2 Thessalonians 2:1-2 / Matthew 24:12-13

•        Due to challenges.

•        Environmental troubles.

•        Prosperity of the wicked/wickedness.

PRAYER:

•        Lord please renew their confidence, strength and faith in YOU. (Psalm 73:26)

•        Let them be continually persuaded in Your Faithfulness and Greatness. (2^nd Timothy 1:12)

•        Lord please let them experience THE POWER of THE GOSPEL afresh.

       WHAT ALL OF US MUST DO – (Luke 15:8-9 – The Parable of The Lost Coin)

•        Light a candle continuously from THE TRUE LIGHT OF GOD.

•        Sweep the house continuously through THE TRUE WORD OF GOD.

•        Seek diligently and continuously until fully FOUND IN JESUS CHRIST.

   

 Luke 9:62 (KJV)

And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.

PRAYER:

•        Lord please have mercy on me in anyway that I have frustrated Your purpose in my life.

•        Activate in me the side of Your Mercy that confines me to You.

•        Increase the brokenness and the repentance that will keep me in my heavenly position.

•        Firm up my connection to YOU – The True Source of Life.

•        LORD PLEASE GRANT ME THE HEART TO RECEIVE THE LOST UNTO YOU!

O Church Arise (Arise, Shine)

O Church, arise, and put your armour on

Hear the call of Christ our Captain

For now the weak, can say that they are strong

In the strength that God has given

With shield of faith and belt of truth

We'll stand against the devil's lies

An army bold, whose battle cry is love

Reaching out to those in darkness

Our call to war, to love the captive soul

But to range against the captor

And with the sword, that makes the wounded whole

We will fight with faith and valour

When faced with trials on every side

We know the outcome is secure

And Christ will have, the prize for which He died

An inheritance of nations

Chorus:

Arise, shine for your light has come

Arise, shine for the Risen Son

Lift your eyes, we are His radiant bride

Arise, o Church arise!

Come see The Cross, where love and mercy meet

As the Son of God is stricken

Then see His foes, lie crushed beneath His feet

For The Conqueror has risen!

And as the stone is rolled away

And Christ emerges from the grave

This victory march, continues till the day

Ev'ry eye and heart shall see Him

So Spirit come, put strength in every stride

Give grace for every hurdle

That we may run, with faith to win the prize

Of a servant good and faithful

As saints of old, still line the way

Retelling triumphs of His grace

We hear their calls, and hunger for the day

When with Christ we stand in Glory.

Chorus:

Arise, shine for your light has come

Arise, shine for the Risen Son

Lift your eyes, we are His radiant bride

Arise, o Church arise!

• Lord have mercy and forgive every area where Your Light and Your Name have been withdrawn.
• Lord let The Body of Christ (The Church) in Europe arise from all forms of “spiritual depression.” (established state of powerlessness, pollution, darkness, disorderliness, etc.)

1. The manner of “The Shinning” - through The True and Complete Gospel.

• Mark 16:15(KJV) “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the Gospel to every creature.”

1Corinthians 1:18-25

^“ For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.  For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?  For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:  but we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumbling block, and unto the Greeks foolishness; but unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.”

Colossians 2:11-23 

“in whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ: buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; and having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ. Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, and not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God. Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances, (touch not; taste not; handle not; which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men? which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body; not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.”

• The power and glory of God that ought to be the hallmark of the church’s operation on earth is only truly experienced when men and women called by His name have come to the place of death, to the Cross of Calvary. 

• For men to be released from the tyranny of sin and its guilt, men must have seen the cross of Calvary. How is this possible if the message of Christ and Him crucified is not preached? 

• The early church did not give in to the Jews who required signs nor to the Greeks who demanded wisdom. 1 Cor 1:22-24. Their message was one – “But we preach Christ crucified”.  They saw great and effectual results from the simple, unsophisticated and uncomplicated preaching of the cross. It is the power of God….. 1 Corinthians 1:18 

• The devil, knowing the power of the cross, has worked extra time to keep its message from being preached in the church our day. He has used and is still using several strategies to accomplish this. He blindfolds men from seeing or acknowledging the cross, he seeks to ridicule the cross, he undermines the cross and its power and he works hard to becloud it. 

Job 5:12-14  (NKJV) 

“He frustrates the devices of the crafty, So that their hands cannot carry out their plans. He catches the wise in their own craftiness, And the counsel of the cunning comes quickly upon them. They meet with darkness in the daytime, And grope at noontime as in the night”. 

Prayer:

• The devil’s blindfold ~ 2 Cor 4:3-4. Today, we come in the authority of the name of Jesus and command every blindfold of the devil in the church to be removed. 

• We pray against everything that the devil has been using to take the eyes of the church off the cross and its message. We nullify every distraction in the form of activities, endless ceremonies and typologies. 

• We come against every effort of man that is taking the place of the cross in the life of the church. 

• Lord, frustrate everything the devil has done to render impotent, undermine and make void of effect of the cross in the church today. 

• Isaiah 5:13-14- ignorance is part of the devil’s strategy to cover up the fact of His defeat by the cross of Calvary. Today, in the name of Jesus Christ, we declare that blind eyes in the church begin to see the cross again as the light of the glorious gospel of Christ shines on men. (2 Cor 4:4) 

• Col 2:18-20- What depths of deception and bondage the devil has brought into the church because men are not being pointed to the Man of Calvary! Lord, by the anointing of Your Holy Spirit, cause Your church to be brought out of her bondage and deception into the glorious deliverance secured by the cross of Christ. 

• Lord, re-crop Your church with men and women, young and old, who are not apologetic about the message of the cross. Take away the dread of preaching the message of the cross from the faces of pastors, teachers and evangelists. 

• Lord, let a fresh revelation of the meaning, the mystery and the ministry of the cross of Christ come back to Your church.

• Lord, let the church be rid of everything that beclouds the cross and makes it obscure. Let the message of the cross of Christ become the one proclamation of the church worldwide in our day. 

• The message of the cross has largely been lost on the younger generation of our times. Lord, raise a generation of youth who become soldiers of the cross of Christ, willing to bear it’s shame no matter what. 

•  The message of the Cross of Calvary will not be forgotten in our generation in the name of Jesus. 

 King Of My Life  

1. King of my life, I crown Thee now,  

Thine shall the glory be;  

Lest I forget Thy thorn-crowned brow,  

Lead me to Calvary.  

  

 Lest I forget Gethsemane,         

Lest I forget Thine agony,         

Lest I forget Thy love for me,         

Lead me to Calvary.  

  

2. Show me the tomb where Thou wast laid, 

 Tenderly mourned and wept;  

Angels in robes of light arrayed,  

Guarded Thee whilst Thou slept  

  

3. Let me like Mary, through the gloom,  

Come with a gift to Thee;  

Show to me now the empty tomb,  

Lead me to Calvary.  

  

4. May I be willing, Lord, to bear  

Daily my cross for Thee;  

Even Thy cup of grief to share,  

Thou hast borne all for me.  

  

5. Fill me, O Lord, with Thy desire  

For all who know not Thee;  

Then touch my lips with holy fire,  

To speak of Calvary.

Ephesians 4:1-3

'Unless we individually walk worthy of our calling into the light with all lowliness of mind, meekness and gentleness, we shall continue to injure the body of Christ and bring her into disunity."

Prayer

• Lord, help me to focus on my ‘walk’ rather than my ‘work’ so that I am not one who inflicts the injury of disunity on Your Body. Make me one who builds Your body and not tear it down. 

• Lord, I plead with You today, help me to understand more clearly, more fully and more deeply the calling to which I am called in Christ Jesus so that I can walk worthy of it. 

• Lord, show me specifically what I must do to walk worthy of the calling with which I am called.  

Ephesians 4:4-6

"One body, one Spirit, one hope, one Lord…." 

Prayer

• Lord, restore Your church to her charter of unity. As You did in Matthew 21, Lord, rid the church of every system, structure and set up that works against her charter of unity. Lord, bring a fresh revelation of Ephesians 4:4-6 to the church. 

• Jesus Christ is the church’s one foundation. Lord, cause Your church to bring her focus back to Christ and Him alone, to Christ and Him crucified. Let the church be built up once again on her one foundation – Jesus Christ. 

Ephesians 4:7-13  

Prayer

• Lord, re-visit the church with Your gifts of apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers. Let their function work for the equipping of the saints for ministry and for the edification of Your body. 

• Holy Spirit, weed out self-appointed apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers from the church. Re-crop Your church with shepherds after Your own heart, Lord. 

• Holy Spirit, activate these gifts to the church to function effectively until we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man and the full stature of the fullness of Christ. 

Ephesians 4:15-16 

Prayer

• Holy Spirit, cause there to be a growing up of the church into Christ alone, not doctrine, not sacraments or activities or memberships. Let Your glory be seen in the church again in our days. 

• Lord, let love blossom in the church. Holy Spirit, shed abroad in our hearts the fire of Your love. Let the world know that we are Christ’s disciples because of the love that is evidently demonstrated among us. 

In order for us to walk worthy of our calling to the new creation life, each one of us must come to the place of death- the place of the daily bearing of the cross. This is the only way to keep the self-life from contaminating the flow of the Holy Spirit through us as His vessels in the coming revival.

Luke 14:26-33- The Lord is doing two important things. He is building His church (Matt 16:18) and raising an army. For both projects, the Lord needs disciples men and women who have forsaken all to follow Him, those who have been completely emptied of the self-life and are completely filled with the Christ-life. 

The Lord is re-cropping His church with His disciples. If I can’t hate my life and forsake all, I CANNOT be His disciple which means I cannot be part of His true church. 

Prayer

• Lord, help me to keep denying myself, taking up my cross daily and following You. 

• Help me to count everything a loss to gain You, Lord. Help to count the cost NOW! 

• Open my eyes to see that my life is worth nothing unless I am serving Your kingdom’s purpose on earth. 

• Lord, have mercy on me today and help by Your Eternal Spirit to lay my all on Your altar for You. 

• Lord, I am resolved to follow You and be all that You have purposed me to be for You. 

My body is Your sanctuary 

My body is Your sanctuary 

Purify me as gold 

So I can be bold 

To say, my body 

Is Your sanctuary
