THE GREATER THE GROWTH, THE THICKER THE COVERING

Zec 2:4  And said unto him, Run, speak to this young man, saying, Jerusalem shall be inhabited as towns without walls for the MULTITUDES of men and cattle therein:
Zec 2:5  For I, saith the LORD, will be unto her a wall of fire round about, and will be the glory in the midst of her.

That is to say as Jerusalem (the church of Jesus Christ) becomes a city without walls, I increase My protection/covering over her

Why?

“Because a great door and effectual is opened unto me and there are many adversaries” – I Cor 16:9

Church growth scars the kingdom of darkness

Because the growth of the church is a threat to their works

They are the kingdom of Darkness but we are the light of the World

And Light will quench darkness any-day, anytime

LIGHT WILL EVER REMAIN A THREAT TO THE POWERS OF DARKNESS

The church of Jesus Christ is a terror to the powers of Darkness

That’s why the greater the growth, the thicker the Covering

“For I, saith the LORD, will be unto her a wall of fire round about, and will be the glory in the midst of her.” – Zech 2:5


Zec 2:6  Ho, ho, come forth, and flee from the land of the north, saith the LORD: for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the heaven, saith the LORD.
Zec 2:7  Deliver thyself, O Zion, that dwellest with the daughter of Babylon.
Zec 2:8  For thus saith the LORD of hosts; After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you: FOR HE THAT TOUCHETH YOU TOUCHETH THE APPLE OF HIS EYE.
Zec 2:9  For, behold, I will shake mine hand upon them, and they shall be a spoil to their servants: and ye shall know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me.
Zec 2:10  Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion: for, lo, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the LORD.
Zec 2:11  And many nations shall be joined to the LORD in that day, and shall be my people: and I will dwell in the midst of thee, and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto thee.
Zec 2:12  And the LORD shall inherit Judah his portion in the holy land, and shall choose Jerusalem again.
Zec 2:13  Be silent, O all flesh, before the LORD: for he is raised up out of his holy habitation.


DARE TO BE DIFFERENT!
by: Joseph M. Asiam

Luk 6:22  Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake

If the entire world is totally celebrating you, being a child of God, chances are good, you’re not on the right path. (you must have backslidden)
If everywhere you go, everyone is at peace with you, check it, something is wrong with your Christianity.
But are you being reproached by men, are you constantly a subject of ridicule among your contemporaries and generally in the eyes of the world, then permit me to congratulate you: you’re a True Christian!
Dare to be different.
For you cannot make a difference if you’re not different!
What is uncommon is what will stand out among men
Therefore celebrate your uniqueness! You’re uncommon and you’re going uncommon places!

Have a joyous Week!
