BE PLANTED IN A LOCAL CHURCH
Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much more as you see the Day approaching.
Hebrews 10:19
When you are born again you have to be planted in a local
church and attend church faithfully. The local church is where you will
fellowship with other believers. You can learn to serve others in a local
church! When you are in a local church, you can pray for others and others can
pray for you.
You can make lasting friendships in a local church and
possibly meet your future spouse in a local church. No man is an island and as
a child of God you have to belong to a local church. You have to be part of a
functioning body. There are blessings for you in a local church!
Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to
dwell together in unity! It is like the precious oil upon the head, running
down the beard of Aaron, running down the edge of his garments. It is like the
dew of Hermon, descending upon the mountains of Zion; for there the LORD
commanded the blessing – life forevermore.
Psalm 133:1-3
The local church is where you can begin to discover and
utilize your gifts. The local church is where you can begin to dream! Learn to
serve in a local church. Learn to use your gifts in your local church.
A man’s gift makes room for him, and brings him before great
men.
Proverbs 18:16
There are so many benefits that are in a local church. When
you are planted in a local church, you will prosper. The local church is the
place where you begin to flourish. Many people want to flourish in the world.
However, as a child of God if you truly want to flourish in life, you have to
be planted in a local church.
The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree, he shall grow
like a cedar in Lebanon. Those who are planted in the house of the LORD shall
flourish in the courts of our God. They shall still bear fruit in old age; they
shall be fresh and flourishing, to declare that the LORD is upright; he is my
rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
Psalm 92:12-15
Thought of the day: I have to be planted in a local church.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for the local church, in
the name of Jesus. Amen.
