Building True Alliances

The Hebron Concept Today’s Focus: Building True Alliances Scripture: 1 Chronicles 11:1,2 Greetings Sons of God: 1 Chronicles 11:1,2; Then all Israel gathered themselves to David unto Hebron, saying Behold we are thy bone and thy flesh. And moreover in time past, even when Saul was king, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and the Lord thy God said unto thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be ruler over my people Israel. The scripture says that all Israel gathered themselves unto David unto Hebron. True alliances cannot be built by organizing, advertising, summoning or inviting. In the Body of Christ, true alliances are formed by the Spirit of God and through the grace in a man as the set man or father over a household. Congregations can be built when the leader is amongst the sheep and he has an intimate relationship with them. And like a true shepherd the father of the household is given grace to move people or lead them to a single location. These people who have formed an true alliance will be attracted to the grace within the father or leader of the household. The culture of family and love must be present. Now I know this is a little wordy but let’s look back at the scripture to prove it. First, we know Hebron is the place of joining and the gathering of all Israel to David was to unite the nation and become one corporate man. Now the people acknowledged that David was God’s anointed because they confessed in verse 2 that even though Saul was king it was David that led Israel out and in. Hence the people were attracted to the grace that was within David. David was anointed king at Hebron and Israel was all gathered there to anoint him. In the Body of Christ, God gives grace to spiritual fathers to help lead and mature the Body of Christ. The Holy Spirit assembles the Body of Christ in households, then clans then tribes to form the Holy Nation. When the Holy Spirit puts you within a household of faith, he has given grace to the father of that household to dispense the grace of God to you through the word of God. This is how the fathers of the household feed the sheep or the sons of God within their care. Peace, Love and Grace from the Father, Calvin Calhoun, Jr.
