Amos 3:3
"Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?"
Simple question with a simple answer. They can't!
But, many accomplishments can be dealt with if they are agreed upon.
As Bro Arnold says, "The Miraculous Power of Oneness!" But, oneness was meant to be in unity with one another. A house divided cannot stand, but a house united will stable a fall.
To agree means to have the same views or to harmonize in opinion or feeling. Truth is, God's greatest need for His people is to agree. Jesus said, "Where two or three agree, I am in their midst."
If you want God to touch down on your world, grab a brother or sister's hand and agree!
The Church is a community in which the presence of the Most High resides. If His people don't agree, His hands are tied. You cannot expect miraculous power in your midst if you are not in agreement.
The prison doors would not have been opened if Paul and Silas did not join their voices in singing praises to God.
There is great power in agreement! The key reason for the growth of the Apostolic Church from Acts 2 and on was that they agreed! They continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine. They were in constant fellowship with eachother. But, most of all, they were in agreement!
The Bible says in Acts 2:44: "All the believers were together and had everything in common."
They agreed! Thus, to conclude, here's the reason for the ministry that God has ordained. God has always sought for a vessel to use for His work. Jesus, is the ultimate vessel for the Bible says, "Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, But a body You have prepared for Me." Hebrews 10:5
But, that body has been resurrected and serves as the express image of the invisible Spirit that works all in all!
Here's revelation! As soon as that body, the Man Jesus, ascended into Heaven, He left the Promise of the Spirit in several men and women to continue the work that He began. His Promise, the promise of His presence, goes with us wherever we go. We are the church!
To continue, God has ordained the five-fold ministry for a particular purpose.
And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love. -Ephesians 4:11-16
All God really wants is for His people to be AGREED!
