Where is The Church?
There is nothing wrong with dancing before The LORD, shouting and getting a little loud for Jesus, giving a huge shout-out to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
In fact, The Church should be a lot louder than it is.
Some are calling those manifestations the devil today? Better be careful folks.
Have you been to a WORLDLY music fest? Where they are shouting for the devil, and on top of that most don’t even know what they are shouting about …… but they are giving it their ALL.
Those in Church who cannot lift their hand(s) to Jesus or their voice: maybe they don’t know that Jesus who likes loud, that Jesus who sweeps people off their feet right into a dance, or who sweeps you right on up in His arms of love.
That TANGIBLE Jesus, have you met Him yet, necause you won’t ever forget the meeting!
The Church I grew up in used to praise The LORD and sing so loud, it felt like the walls were “bulging” in the Sanctuary.
The altars were full every service, people were weeping before The LORD in love with Him or repenting over sin, they were not quiet by any means, they had foot washing services……….too.
(I HAVE seen that much and even more shouting, jumping and yelling actually at football games while grown men chased a pig skin down a yard line. Have seen it in the living room, of my parents house even, grown men jumping and yelling, high-fiving everyone?)
Where’s The Church?
Those meetings were so filled with God’s Glory, though the devil was there and went to church then, and he still does today……….. oh yes he is right in some pulpits, and people don’t even recognize him. He looks like an angel of light.
I miss my Church I grew up in, in my 20s. It was so filled with “His Holy Presence.” I would NOT want to miss a meeting, because I knew I would probably miss a blessing.
We had the privilege of being in Church 1 morning and 4 nights of a week, if you were in the Choir.
WHERES THE CHURCH……… Jesus is coming soon.
I thinkTthe Bible said gather together even more as you see the day approaching, I think that meant the day of The LORD.
I think it also said in the last days there will be a falling away.
Where is The Church?
Just wondering tonight!

We are looking to a building or a group…when as an individual I am the church. I am to carry his presence like that everywhere I go. That tangible expression of his love, his grace, his power. If we aren’t experiencing ‘church’ it’s because as an individual I’m *we are not* not being/behaving like ‘the church’? It’s time to stop blaming the church and search our own hearts as to the reason we aren’t manifesting his presence individually. I’m not saying this as an attack, but as an answer to why the church isn’t what she used to be…
Yes, let His Glory Rise among us!
Thank you and Blessings in the Lord.
Sister Gail, wow you hit the nail on the head! Like you, I miss the churches from my 20s and 30s. There was so much freedom to praise and worship the Lord. His presence was there whereever and whenever 2 or more were gathered.
The above MESSAGE its ♥♥♥HIM CALLING HIS CHILDREN TO OBEDIENCE♥♥ AMÉN; AMÉN; AMÉN..!
Praise God! God bless you, Minister Gail! You are absolutely right Sister!
God did mention a great falling away in his Word and I asked myself on quite a few occasions, where is the Church of Jesus Christ, but the true hearted, faithful and obedient Church, do not seem to be in many of the buildings today, but spread out abroad, throughout the country and it seems to be a small selected group of Chosen and Anointed believers who are sincerely preparing themselves for the Coming of Jesus.
I am who loves to praise the Lord with holy dance, allowing the Holy Spirit to move in power, as I submitted myself, inclined to how the Lord wanted to use me in a dance to glorify and praise his holy name. In most churches today, if you get up in a holy dance they may definitely want to sit you down or dismiss you from attending that church building.
Many are called, but few are Chosen by the Lord, accepting the call of God. God bless you, Sister Gail, I stand along with you on one accord in the Spirit of God,in prayer and faith, that we will be able to dance as much as we want in the New Jerusalem, with the praises to the Lord, without being sat down or looked at as crazy or offending someone.️❤️❤️
