CHILDS PLAY

'I have my anointing and I don't need them'
'I have my group and I don't need them'
These are two the commonest statements among believers. David has the anointing and yet he gathers people. Why do we shun gatherings and helping each other? I will help you when I see I can get something out of it and even that it should be something that won't cost me much.

THERE IS NO  MOVE OF GOD WITHOUT ASSOCIATIONS.
Jesus did not begin ministry without disciples, why is it that we think we don't need certain people?
Who taught you about Christ and born again and got you interested in ministry? Who
supported you in prayers that you are where you are now? Who brought up that your spiritual father or helper?

GROUPS ARE THE MOTHERS OF INDIVIDUALS.
GOD BROUGHT GROUPS BECAUSE THEY FACILITATE THE MOVE OF GOD; ONE PERSON ALONE IS NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO WIELD THE SWORD OF THE ANOINTING.

I have seen certain ministers who are gifted speakers but have under-achieved because they think they can carry the anointing alone.
David used many people to carry the anointing or ark.

If I can pray for people to fall under the power and cast out demons and heal the sick but have no supporters nor somebody  to give me an auditorium and sponsorship, how will I operate these gifts?

Yes, men have taken his glory to themselves and want to carry the ark alone instead of doing it with 30,000 people like David did.
My friend if this is how you want to carry the ark then God won't permit you.

Remember, a golden chain is a lost chain if all the parts are strong but has a weak part which will tear in the market place and get lost.

Lord have mercy on us with our pride, there is no move of God for  us as long as we feel we don't need anybody and our anointing alone will do it.

David, the Ark is  ready but where is the 30,000?
