Analogy
By Rev.
Kenneth E. Hagin
"And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the
firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the
preeminence" (Col. 1:18).
Here's where we believers have missed it! We've recognized that Jesus is
the Head of the Church, and we've exalted Him to His position of Power,
all right. But we've failed to see that the Head is wholly dependent
upon its body for carrying out its plans.
We've failed to see that we are seated with Christ in heavenly places.
We've failed to see that Jesus has authority over Satan's power. If this
authority is ever exercised, it will have to be exercised through the
Body.
We've been so sure that we couldn't do anything, that we've left
everything up to Christ the Head of the Church - and the Head is
powerless without the Body.
Take your own physical head as an example.
It is powerless to carry out any of its plans without the cooperation of
the body. Your head might see a songbook on a rack in front of you, but
unless your body cooperates, your head will never be able to sing from
that book.
The ministry God wants to accomplish through His Son in this world will
be carried out through the Body of Christ. And we the Body of Christ
have the same authority the Head has!
Confession: The ministry God wants to accomplish through His Son in
this world will be carried out through the Body of Christ. I am a member
of the Body, and I will exercise my authority!
