The Body of Christ is made up of spiritual beings, living in bodies of flesh, capable of manifesting the glory of God. Ephesians 4:24 says these beings are created after God in righteousness and true holiness. Even so, God has not been able to reveal himself to the degree that He desires because we have been dominated by the flesh.
By His Spirit, God is revealing how we can walk in the spirit and not be controlled by the flesh. As we fine-tune our lives to obey the promptings of the Holy Spirit, God will have the available vessels necessary to manifest Himself in the earth.
God is not looking for ability; He is looking for availability. He needs you and me to do the work that must be done. He has to have people who are faithful. Good help has been hard for God to find.
I believe that we are in the midst of the greatest outpouring of the Holy Spirit in the history of the human race. We have come to the end of this age in God's timetable. It is harvest time! God has a plan for this generation - to sweep the souls of this earth into the kingdom of God.
Supernatural power will be required to accomplish this great task just as it was required to deliver the children of men from the power of darkness by the power of the Holy Spirit.
When God found Moses, he found a man who would be obedient. He made mistakes but God was patient with him. He would not allow Moses to draw back. He needed him. Moses had what it took to accomplish the great feat of delivering Israel. He was faithful.
Today, we must be faithful. God needs us. His plan is to use us as He used Moses. He is requiring that we sell out to Him. He is looking to show Himself strong in behalf of those whose heart is perfect toward Him. "For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him" (2 Chron. 16:9).
That word "perfect" in 2 Chronicles 16:9 does not mean that God is looking for those who have never made a mistake. It means loyal, devoted, dedicated, consecrated, and faithful. Moffatt's translation says, "For the Eternal's eyes dart here and there over the whole world, as he exerts his power on behalf of those who are devoted to him."
God is looking for those who are devoted, loyal, consecrated, and dedicated to Him, to His plan, and purpose. God wants your heart!
