Synergism and the Saints!
Hey Friends,
Love and unity are critical characteristics communicated and taught throughout the Cannon. As leaders, it is our job to try to get alignment in vision so we can see synergistic power in the ministries we lead. If we can communicate vision so that the entire body follows, the synergism we create will propel us forward. It is happening in culture against us, so why not use it to advance the Kingdom?
In Genesis 11:6, the Lord said: “Behold, they are one people, and they all have the same language. And this is what they began to do, and now nothing which they purpose to do will be impossible for them.” This was an evil group with evil motives and yet they were together, unified and synergistically empowered!
Just think, if we with the power of the Holy Spirit and with the same vision and unity work for God…what would be possible for us? All things! It is the job of the leader to clearly communicate a compelling vision that will motivate the groups we lead to charge together. Nothing could stop that kind of movement and momentum!
We must watch the work of the enemy, and his desire and delight is in dividing us. Our Lord said, “No kingdom divided against itself will stand.” I’m not talking about the whole of the Church – just the one you lead, or maybe the group, ministry or organization you lead. We must sharpen our skills at communicating such a clear vision that it is easy to follow and get behind.
Together we cannot be stopped!
That is how the Lord planned for His Church to charge. It is the job of the leader to lead the charge. If we move forward like this nothing can stop us. The world has yet to see a church moving in this power – all things would be possible for a church like this!
Just a thought.
Love,
Pastor Chris

I love that Faith Promise church has a defined vision and direction that is repeatedly emphasized to its congregation. Also, I would be extremely frustrated if God didn’t give my family direction and work to commit to. It’s hard for a person or group to have zeal and enthusiasm without vision, purpose, and direction.

P.S. Wrong spelling of canon (although I now have this cool spiritual warfare image in my head that makes me smile)
I also had to smile over the Freudian slip of the word “cannon” versus “canon.”
Maybe God is smiling too….
