There is much talk about revival. Some Churches have revival every year. Many of us are on the lookout for the next Revival of Fire. We often talk of past revivals, those of last year, five or ten years ago and even one hundred or two hundred years ago. 

Miracles were seen as people received salvation and were healed and delivered. All these events were short lived with the lookout for the next one being launched.  

I see no consistent evidence of a display of The Great Commission as was commanded in the book of Mark chapter 16 verses 16-20. 

What is worse, though, is that the backward progress of the so-called apostate church (1 Timothy 4:1-3) is taking an “in your face” posture. 

Those of us who profess to be in the Church need to examine ourselves. Is Jesus the Resurrected Son of God? Do I harbor unforgiveness in my heart? Do I love my neighbor as myself? Have I received Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior? been water baptized and filled with The Holy Spirit of Fire at the Hand of Jesus Christ? This is no light thing. Careful consideration is necessary.  

Lately, I have been giving the Millennial Reign role of the Church a lot of thought. At this point I desire to share broadly some of my thoughts in favor of expanding in more detail later.  

Essentially, We the church are in sort of a bootcamp. We have been amply trained (Hebrews 5), told that we reside in Heavenly Places with Christ (Ephesians 2:5-7), told that we are “a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people” (1 Peter 2:9), and told that we are Sons (Children) of God (1 John 3:1-2). 

Additionally, we know that once transitioned into the new world (Millennial Reign) we (The Church) will have glorified bodies (1 Corinthians 15:51-53). We will be unlike the other inhabitants of the earth. Flesh and Bone like the Lord! 

Two last things: Importantly, also we will rule and reign with a rod of iron with Him for one thousand years (Revelation 2:26-28). Secondly, I petitioned the Lord as to what we will be called during the Millennial Reign. Will we be the Church still, the Bride, the Saints the Body of Christ? He will get back to me with the response to that question and when He does, I will let you know. 

So, what am I saying? I am saying let us recognize who we are. Let us be “partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world” (2 Peter 1:4). 

Let us grasp this concept!
