Perfection or Power?

What was the difference between the acclaimed passovers celebrated by Hezekiah and Josiah?

In 2 Chronicles 35, Josiah's passover was done accurately and precisely according to the law of Moses. In 2 Chronicles 30, Hezekiah's passover was improvised, prolonged and even had many grevious errors!

However, it was Hezekiah's passover that generated so much power, that the people themselves (the solemn guardians of all the pagan shrines that had been erected all over Israel) went out after its completion and destroyed all shrines erected all over Israel.

Hezekiah's passover generated a widespread anointing from the Holy Spirit, that moved every single individual with Holy zeal to bring about the purification of the land!

Josiah's passover was individual (or pastor) driven, while Hezekiah's passover was Spirit driven, resulting in an outpouring of power.

Lesson for the church today:

We must seek to spread out the good news as far and wide as possible in unity. What matters is not the accuracy or "purity" of the procedure, rather the leading of the Holy Spirit and the willingness to interdenominate is key.

Jesus is not interested in what denomination your local church is called. What will unleash the power of the Holy Spirit in these latter days, is the ability to combine together in unity  to birth God's great Kingdom.

Revelations 12:1-2 NLT

"Then I witnessed in heaven an event of great significance. I saw a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon beneath her feet, and a crown of twelve stars on her head. She was pregnant, and she cried out because of her labor pains and the agony of giving birth"

Brethren, the woman clothed with the sun is the body of Christ, His bride! And she is travailing in birth. Birth of who? We may ask. Birth of God's glorious Kingdom. The second golden era is here children of God, and Christ's body needs to be united to bring forth this precious child. It is vital, because God's word WILL come to pass!
