God's People

“God’s people are those who awaken to His presence, repent, and live as He wills. Such a change must occur deep within our hearts in answer to the Lord, regardless of whether we act as one person or as part of a couple or family. The path is the same for all who choose to abandon “the reasoning of their evil heart” (Jeremiah 3:17). In return God will give us shepherds to “shepherd [us] with knowledge” (Jeremiah 3:15) of the Way, the Truth and the Life.” (Dynamis 2/6/2019)

“One of the qualifications for ministry is love for people, both God’s people and the lost…the ultimate intent of prophecy and signs and wonders is to encourage God’s people to live like God’s people should live and present “living hopes” to those who are without hope in the world.” (Foundation Study Bible, 2 Corinthians 3:2, Fr. Dn. Stephen Holley)

“Any person who is committed to God should expect Satan’s attacks. Satan, who hates God, also hates God’s people…As we live for Christ, we will experience troubles because we are trying to be God’s people in a perverse world.” Life Application Study Bible, Job 1:6-7, 2 Thessalonians 1:5)

“Division among God’s people gives Satan a tremendous advantage in conquering our usefulness, joy and peace. The destructive influence of murmuring, contentious words must be exchanged for words that produce confidence in Christ and encouragement to His people.” (Joseph Stowell)

“You are never more like God than when you are living in relationships with God’s people and working in partnerships for the re-creation and redemption of God’s world." (Ray Bakke)
