THE PURGING OF PERSONAL AGENDAS

THE PURGING OF PERSONAL AGENDAS I want to do mighty things in the western world but they have a mindset that needs to be purged, for this to happen. I am separating the wheat from the chaff, calling all men everywhere to repent. As this purging process continues you will see pockets of My power manifest, according to the hunger and obedience of the people. There will be no more lone rangers and no independent people left when the purging is completed. The power will come as I unify those that are pure in heart that hunger after Me. "And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. [2] And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. [3] And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. [4] And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance." Acts 2:1-4 (KJV) You have no concept of the power available to those who have completed the purging process and have had the chaff removed from their life as well as being separated from those who choose to remain chaff. The gates of hell will never prevail against this church as My power flows unhindered for the lack of personal agendas. "Behold! I have given you authority and power to trample upon serpents and scorpions, and physical and mental strength and ability over all the power that the enemy possesses; and nothing shall in any way harm you." Luke 10:19 (AMP) I cannot flow through an independent spirit which is simply a mild form of rebellion. I have designed each gift to be dependent on another to complete the building of the kingdom. I have placed these gifts in individuals in the body so that each gift complements the other. When all independent spirits are broken and a spirit of dependence prevails, unity is achieved and love flows. Then I will release My power and My glory will fill the earth.  "And I will purge out from among you the rebels, and them that transgress against me: I will bring them forth out of the country where they sojourn, and they shall not enter into the land of Israel: and ye shall know that I am the Lord"Ezekiel 20:38 (KJV) Dependency is the glue of unity. An independent spirit chips away the mortar, until the building collapses. A personal agenda is an independent spirit, and has only a pretense of submission to further it agenda. Always looking for what it can get out of another not what it can give another. The motto of an independent spirit is, What's in it for me? . An independent spirit will never submit and can only be broken to a place of humility. "Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God."Ephesians 5:21 (KJV)  "For because of Him the whole body (the church, in all its various parts), closely joined and firmly knit together by the joints and ligaments with which it is supplied, when each part with power adapted to its need is working properly in all its functions, grows to full maturity, building itself up in love."Ephesians 4:16 (AMP) This is why all those who come to Me must go through the purging process of death to self. Until you are dead to self you are of no use to Me or the body.   "And whoever falls on this Stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom It falls will be crushed to powder and It will winnow him, scattering him like dust." Matthew 21:44 (AMP) All your joy, peace and love is on the other side of the narrow gate. The gate is the breaking process, this is why only a few find it. You will not understand or be part of the kingdom until you have gone through the breaking process. The most talented, wonderful looking and acting person may still have an independent spirit and be useless to Me. Do not run from the breaking process, allow Me to complete the work in you, to fit you into the body, making you fit for the masters use. I am calling down to the next level of glory, that I might lift you up you. Don't fight the purging process. "My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; [3] Knowing this , that the trying of your faith worketh patience. [4] But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing." James 1:2-4 (KJV) You can be joyful because it means I have not given up on you. You are still a work in progress.
