Thoughts
on Michael Wells’ teachings in My Weakness for His Strength (Vol. 1) - #

Michael’s book is
available through:
ABIDING LIFE MINISTRIES INTERNATIONAL
Littleton, Colorado
Notice: this email is part of a
BLOG, called Living Life With a Capital “C”. Why a
blog? So that many can receive these thoughts
in an easy manner. If you are not
getting these weekly postings via an email, go to the website: www.leemccm.blogspot.com …in
the top right corner there is a place to register to receive each post.
One nice thing in this day’s writing is Michael
pointing out the essence of ALMI. All
who have known Michael and Betty for any time know that the heart of ALMI is a “with”
ministry, not a building up of one ministry.
Amen.
Would
to God that all Believers could be persuaded they already belong to The Kingdom
of God.
DAY 277
The Kingdom of God
But you are
a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own
possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you
out of darkness into His marvelous light. –I Peter
2:9
One of
the most difficult things to explain is the Abiding Life Ministries
International organization. I think I know why. While most are attempting to build an organization, we
are busy reminding His people to recognize the organization that already exists.
The church is not built by human endeavor but is something that is recognized. I hear people say, “We are
building the Kingdom.” That is not true; actually, they are tearing down the
real Kingdom of God by their unbelief in its existence, as shown through their
attempts to build it. There
already is an organization, and our job at ALMI is to persuade people of the fact that
they already belong to it. The organization is called the Vine and they are branches, not
branches attached to branches but branches attached to the Vine, I do not want people to join me;
I want them to join Christ. Not only is it a great blessing to every
branch to have the revelation of being in the Vine, it is an equal blessing to
me. I do not have to
make rules to try to create what the Holy Spirit will do naturally in His
attached branches; I will leave that for the kingdom builders who wield
their authority and try to do just that.
Yellow – VIP, Very Important Point Green
– IT, Incredible Truth
Red – GP, Greatest Promises
Turquoise – UR, Unfathomable Riches Pink
– PV, Priceless Victory
I like the King James
translation speaking of Believers being a “peculiar” people. Our peculiar book, the Bible, has some
peculiar things to say about us that the world will never acknowledge…but we
should.
Wouldn’t “church” be so
nice if there were no rules. Just Holy
Spirit doing naturally in His attached branches.
Wouldn’t it be nice if
all Believers knew and Lived Michael’s diagram of the Divine Umbilical
Cord. (contact ALMI
for one of those)
