As I prayed this morning, the words “Match Made in Heaven” dropped in my heart.
It’s so true that we must be willing to wait while God moves. His moving isn’t always seen but trust me, that He isn’t idle.
Everything He does is purposed, and often I think we do not wait long enough to see His clear direction.
Whether it’s marriage or a worship team. Ministry teams. Even partnerships in ministry, life, or business.
You had best wait for the very “Match made in Heaven.”
That “match” has the wind behind it and has the ability to ignite a fire, and God has handpicked the team specifically assigned in any given moment or season. Too often we take whoever, whenever….and the devil sure knows it.
Good is not always God, and certainly, it is not always His best. You might end up with less than Christ intended.
So hear me when I say…wait for “it.”
Do not be too quick to say “yes” to just any able-body. It has left many a man void of a move of Heaven.
You might also consider the fact that teams consist of equally yoked people but also unique strengths. Not everyone on your team will carry the anointing the same and you had best get use to the gifts of God looking a bit different than “you.” Otherwise, you’ll fill a team full of “you’s” rather than the fullness of the image of Christ where glory moves through individuals uniquely, beautifully, and powerfully according to supernatural gifting.
I’ve seen many want what they are used to and, honestly, in the end they got it. It left them with no anointing. No power. Same ole’ hum drum and we wonder why no harvest response. This could be the answer to the “why.”
The humble turn it around once it’s seen, while the proud stay the course and hope no one discerns the difference.
Your comfort level left no room for God’s glory. It was no “match made in Heaven.” It was just a match made in flesh.
Certainly, not every marriage was approved by God or ordained by His hand. We seem to teach they are. But they aren’t. Not everyone asked God for His opinion in such a matter, and we move forward with our opinion rather than God’s. Then, when God corrects the matter, we cry foul as if He can’t divide what He did not put together. (Common sense is vital saints yet seems lost on many of our subject matters.)
The “Match made in Heaven” is like Elijah and Elisha, Priscilla and Aquila, Ruth and Boaz, or David and Jonathan.
Teams united by Heaven for a divine purpose, indeed.
Did you pray through that team of yours? Those you’re entrusting God’s precious cargo to? Did God get to weigh in on it?
Something to ponder.
Is the anointing gone? Missing? Has confusion or dry bones been the commonplace in your midst?
Then go back to prayer and see what stays and what goes, if anything. It may be that something or someone does. Not because it isn’t good, perhaps, but because it simply wasn’t God’s “Match made in Heaven.”
