The Holy Spirit revealed to me in a dream last night the root of jealousy and competition in the church. The body will never stop attempting to tear itself down by competing with its counterparts until they heal. This behavior comes from deep insecurity, rejection, fear of man, and need for approval. You can preach to the church that real friends and true neighbors do NOT compete, but it will not do any good. We must teach them where their true identity lies... In Jesus. Once they learn who they are in Christ, the competition will cease because the infected root is healed and whole. It is time we water the root by reminding the body of Christ of who they are!
