“He who is not for me is against me”
Prophetic teaching by Victor LorenzoLuke chapter 11 “He who is not with me is against me and he who does not gather with me scatters” Jesus cast out a demon and he also explained the issue of unity .The demon Satan is not divided against himself and also that His kingdom cannot be divided against itself. It is a condition, the world will believe if we are in unity. If we are not in unity it is impossible for the people surrounding us to believe. If you are preaching about love you are preaching about mercy you are preaching about forgiveness you are preaching about patience you are preaching about care and you are preaching that God left everything to come to earth and die for us. What are the things that divide us? It is the lack of love ,the lack of mercy and the lack of forgivness.It does not matter how much you say if you are not practicing what you say, the people around you will not see you as a person to have the authority to teach these things. This is what the enemy has robbed from the church because of the disunity. Unity is not everyone doing the same thing, but it is loving, caring and respecting. It is knowing that if I do not have a particular calling, what my brother is doing is part of the thing that I need. We will share time to together and we will help each other to minister.
The key area of unity is amongst the ministers who will equip the saints for the work of the ministry. It does not matter how much you try, you will not be able to equip people to do the work alone you will need the help of other ministers to do it. You need to trust one another. It is trust that the enemy has robbed from us. As Jesus said” if I cast out demons by the finger of God certainly the kingdom of God has come.”He said clearly “I am coming against the kingdom of darkness that is why I am casting out demons. I am showing that I am against darkness, I am coming totally against the culture, and I am coming totally against the world. I come against the enemy and to destroy the works of the enemy.” He explained what happened when he cast out demons, when man is fully armed he will take his possessions, but when someone who is more powerful comes he can enter and he can overcome him and take all his arms. He can dispossess him .Jesus explained that He was the one with the power to cast out demons. The devil comes to take what Jesus has come to take-people- souls. Then he drew a line and he explained “those who are not with me are against me and those who are not gathering are scattering” Church there is no neutral position, it does not matter how good your worship is or how much you are offering, if you are not gathering you are scattering. If you are not winning people you are allowing the enemy to do what he wants
Because of this line I can tell you this in this context; Christians who are not winning souls are demonised. Church that is not making the kingdom of God advance is under the control of the enemy it is under the control of the power where that church is. It is under the control of the strong man that is operating in your town and in your city and your area. Jesus wants to give you all the power that this in heaven and in earth so that through Him you will be able to fulfil the great commission.
