As Christian's we are not normal creatures. We are a different breed of people. God called us out of the darkness to live in his precious light. However, many of us do not live up to our potential. As Christians ordinary living just will not do. God has called us to BE MORE and to live above the life of a normal person. He has called us to be the Remnant. However, many of us (self included) live below the mark. We slack and live and lack because we allow the devil to trick us and to hinder us because we believe what we see and allow our faith to lack.
I had a vision of the body of Christ. The body was lying on a Hospital bed. The body was hooked up to all types of cords and wires. It seemed as if it was on life support. The nurse in the room was no regular nurse. The Nurse was an Angel of the Lord. The nurse sat in the corner and monitored the body. The angel had a note pad and was writing down the vital signs and watching for improvements. I asked the Angel what was wrong. The Angel began to explain to me what was going on. The body is in critical condition, Stable but still in critical condition. The body of Christ is doing enough to stay alive but it is not living. The angel began to explain that every time believers prayed the body of Christ took in air and breathed, but the ventilator was doing much of the work ("Pray without ceasing."-1Thessalonians 5:17). Oxygen is the basic method for improving the function of lungs. When the lungs do not function properly because they cannot transmit the oxygen across the lung to the blood, or internal changes make the lungs work inefficiently, adding oxygen may often overcome the defect. The angel then said each time a believer reads the Bible or Study the Bible activity in the central nervous system. ("But his delight [is] in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night."- Psalms 1:2) The nervous system is your body's decision and communication center. The central nervous system (CNS) is made of the brain and the spinal cord and the peripheral nervous system (PNS) are made of nerves. Together they control every part of your daily life, from breathing and blinking to helping, you memorize facts for a test. Nerves reach from your brain to your face, ears, eyes, nose, and spinal cord... and from the spinal cord to the rest of your body. Sensory nerves gather information from the environment; send that info to the spinal cord, which then speed the message to the brain. The brain then makes sense of that message and fires off a response. The angel said the body's heart was in trouble. The Angel explained everything time we do things that are unpleasing to God, ("Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life." -Proverbs 4:23). We cause the Body to have a heart attack, which in turn affects the other previously mentioned functions. The angel then said to that every time believers are divided or at war with one another. It causes the body to have seizures. ("And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand" -Matthew 12:25). The angel explained more however, I believe that you get the point. The angel ended with "The body has the power to heal itself, instantly but it up to the body and the members to work together and decide that nothing will separate them from what God has for the body."
I urge us as the body of Christ to come together and make a stand. The devils main goal is to conquer us and to make us "THINK" We are effective. What good is it for the world to see us and we are very ineffective. As Christians, we have to continue to not be ashamed and we must be BOLD… THE POWER IS IN US!! WE MUST STAND AND BE PROACTIVE. WE MUST FIGHT THE DEVIL AND NOT JUST LAY THERE AND TAKE IT.
RISE UP

TRUST GOD
THE WORLD IS WATCHING US AND IF WERE DEAD, HOW CAN WE HELP THEM?
