Famine of Relationship

Famine of Relationship

There are famines all over the church around the world, spiritual famines can bring religious spirits and take away spiritual hunger from the church. This is a day of restoration and progression of spiritual rains, fruitful lands, and the life of the Spirit. –(Amos 8:11)

There are spiritual famines: spiritual famine of love, spiritual famine of revelation, spiritual famine of healing, spiritual famine of the supernatural, spiritual famine of prophecy and visions, spiritual famine of vision and purpose, and spiritual famine of relationship. –(1 Sam. 3:1)

Much of the church today is in a famine of relationship, we lack relationships and networking, we don’t build around relationship, instead we build teaching, and programs, there can be no rivers of revelation without true wholesome biblical relationships. –(Matt. 15:3)

Yes we are to build on teaching, however we to build on love, first love the Lord second love one another. We need to be built on the two great commandments, which is love God, and then to love one another. We must learn to build upon relationship again. –(Matt. 22:37-38)

Yes we are to build on teaching, yes we are to build on faith, and yes we are to build on revelation from the Word, notwithstanding we are to build on relationship, without relationship there could be no river of revelation, and faith without love is religion –(1 Cor. 3:1-17, 1:10)

We are to receive those whom Christ has already received, we are to build on relationship with one another throughout the church in our city, region, nation, and global. We are to build relationships with other Christians outside our own groups, we may not agree on everything, but we are to receive those whom Christ has received. –(Rom. 14:1, 15:7)

Unity around the Cross of Christ, first unity with God, which means love God, second unity with one another, which means love one another; it is time to build on relationship in the church beginning in your city! –(Jn. 17)

Yes we are to build on common ground, common faith of the church, we are to teach this common ground, then to teach love for one another. –(1 Tim. 3:14-16, Jude 3)

In addition, within our own congregations begin to build again upon relationship with the Lord and then with one another. Build relationships in small groups in cell groups or home churches. –(Acts 2:42,46)

It is time for the famine of relationship to come to an end! Now here is prayer, let us prayer together in faith. –(1 Jn. 5:14-15)

Father we come to your throne through the Blood of Christ, this is the time of vision, of faith, of new beginning, this is a time of restoration, bless us to hear your voice in this hour and in days to come, anoint us to pray your will for the church around the world.

Father raises up Christian unity, rise up Christian unity, and rise
Up Christian unity, rise up Christian unity, rise up Christian unity, rise up Christian unity. Raise up Christian unity in all members, in our hearts, in our minds, in our homes, in our congregations, in our groups, in our ministries, in our companies, in our workplace and in our lives.

Bring forth rains of healing love, love, inner healing, joy, and
Restoration upon all hearts of the believers in all cities of all nations around the world.

Give Christian unity wings of healing, let us arise around the
Church in every nation, and in every city to bring healing, let the sick be healed, let the hurts of the heart be healed. And let us be healed from sin, and sinful lifestyles.

It is you Lord Jesus Christ who will arise with wings of healing in Christian unity and the unity of all believers in Christ, where there is unity there is health and healing in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

However, we cry with tears of spiritual pain, praying for unity and love. We have cried so much that our tears are no longer ours but the Lord in Heaven and in our hearts. Tears are flowing from our hearts for the church around the world.

Father forgive us of bringing this famine of relationship to the church, we have built on doctrine, but we have not built on relationship. We are to build on love, for the Lord first then second we are to build upon love for one another.

Establish the foundation of love with God, and love with one
another in the church again, including every believer in Jesus the world over and bring this holy restoration and progress to the church once again, and let us never lose love again.

If we will walk in love with truth again the gates and doors of
harvests and miracles will open up, many will come to know the Lord, our cities will change, our homes will change, our congregations will change, and miracles will become a lifestyle for the common believer.

Father lead us out of this famine of relationship, lead us to
love and relationship again, that we may drink of the Spirit again, lead us out today from this land of spiritual famines and lead us to the land of blessing, rain, revival, and love.

Father we pray end this famine of relationship in the church in every congregation, in every city, in every nation around the world. End this famine of relationship in our lives today, and give us clouds of love and relationship that are full of love and relationship, and rain mighty rains of the Spirit upon us today.

We pray bring unity in the church around the world.

We pray in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
