Destructive and Creative Unity

UV 3453/10000 Destructive and Creative Unity

And the Lord said, “ Behold, they are one (unified) people, and they all have the same language. This is only the beginning of what they will do ( in rebellion against Me), and now no evil thing they imagine they can do will be impossible for them.

Genesis 11 v 6

The serpent leader wants all humanity unified in disobedience to God while the Servant Leader Jesus prepares all humanity to be unified in obedience to Him. To this end, the serpent leader spreads lies and deception among all nations. He gets people to speak the language of lies and to disbelieve the word of God. He divides and rules through conflict and strife while the Servant Leader unifies and rules through love and peace. Today, mankind has acquired through such knowledge and unified action tremendous technological prowess to rule the skies, to rain death and destruction on the entire planet. The serpent leader gloats over the command he has over human hearts and imagination while the Servant Leader weeps over the future of humanity even as He wept over Jerusalem and He wants to take every human under His wings of protection and care.

When we work as teams and with unified vision under the Servant Leader, we exercise and employ life giving and life enhancing power. He leads us into eternal and abundant life even as the serpent leader draws people into more and more destructive ways. The serpent leader works on the inner drives of man to pander to the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eye and the pride of life and leads us to our fall. The Servant Leader in contrast sows the seed of the fruit of the Spirit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, self control and humility. The serpent leader draws more and more people to dwell under a curse while the Servant Leader wants to draw all humanity to dwell under the shadow of the Almighty and in His presence and blessing.

We need to recognize the patterns the enemy of our souls, the serpent leader weaves in our lives and move away for preservation and protection to the Servant Leader. Unlike the time of Noah, there is no Ark to preserve our kind but only the living Ark of Jesus that can hold not just seven pairs of all flesh but all who believe and trust Him. We gain nothing by unifying in disobedience and rebellion against the Lord but we regain eternal life by unifying in obedience to the Servant Leader.
