(KJV.) JAMES 4:1
(1) From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?
THE BODY OF CHRIST!
Brethren, it is important to recognize that the enemy's agenda is to destabilize the body of Christ, therefore, he blindfolds the truth of the gospel, infiltrates the hearts of believers with the lust of the flesh, to desire worldly things, fight against one another on issues that do not pertain to salvation and eternal life. the question is, what is going on?
Surprisingly, knowingly or unknowingly, many believers have fallen into his temptations, lies, and deceptions to cause enviousness, enmity, hatred, maliciousness, strife, divisions, sow discords among brethren; we point accusing fingers at one another, not knowing who the culprit is behind the scenes; brethren, the enemy is at work with believers; we wrestle not against the flesh and blood, but against principalities, powers, the rulers of darkness of this world, spiritual wickedness in high places. cf. Ephesians 6:12; therefore, let us not warfare against one another, rather pray, fully discern that if we do the will of Jesus, we are up against the devices of the enemy every day; rise up! come together as soldiers of Christ, lay aside differences to disagree and agree with one another, steadfastly, unshakably, immovably join hands together with faith, spiritually align hearts with one common goal to possess our Christ given positions in this world, to minister the gospel entirely throughout the world with the help of the Holy Spirit, transform lives from darkness to the marvelous lights of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.
We have the power and authority to overrule the lies and deception of the enemy that the body of Christ is contaminated with evil works, and powerless to achieve its goal on earth; the devil is a liar! let us focus on what matters, on daily basis, rebuke the lust of the flesh, that of the eyes and the pride of life, these attributes are gateways to temptations and downfalls of humanity; beware!
CONCLUSION:
Dearly beloved, it does not matter what our interests maybe in this world, to achieve any type of a goal, one has to focus on what matters concerning the agenda; the body of Christ has a goal to achieve in this world, that requires strategic planning and efforts to accomplish; it is up to each and every one of us, to roll up our sleeves, come together around the table of reasoning with love, participate, never act unconcerned, for we are all important branches of the body, some apostles, prophets, teachers, deacons, choristers, ushers, miracles workers etc., therefore, let us reason among ourselves, know where we are, what we are doing, be on one page; this is not the time to point accusing fingers at one another, it is the time for strategic planning to fulfill prophecies; the time is running out, Jesus is coming back soon; therefore, let us work for the purification of our souls; he is counting on you and me to do good works, let us be encouraged to do our best for righteousness sake. Peace be unto you! Amen and Amen!
