Going to church, reading the bible, listening to Christian music will not advance your spiritual life. These activities may give you more understanding but until you are ready to lay down your life and take up your cross this leads nowhere.
What I am talking about is the sacrifice of self to advance the cause of Jesus Christ in the world. There is a destiny that God had for each of us that only we can personally discover. We can discover it only by detaching from the world and making ourselves available for the Holy Spirit. By detaching from the world--now you have time--the commodity that most Christians are not willing to give.
Jesus said, "Self-help is not help at all. Self-sacrifice is the way, to finding yourself, your true self. (Matthew 16:25)
"God has planted eternity in the human heart." (Ecclesiastes 3:11)
"Anyone who lets himself be distracted from the work I plan for him is not fit for the Kingdom of God." (Luke 9:62)
"The most important thing is that I complete my mission, the work that the Lord Jesus gave me." (Acts 20:24)
"We have been sent to speak for Christ." (2 Corinthians 5:20)
"We are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus, to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." (Ephesians 2:10)

Psalm 34:17–19 - "When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all."
There was a heavy fog of discouragement and despair that had fallen upon many people, specifically in the area of promises from the Lord. This fog of despair and discouragement has left many people feeling like things are never going to shift and change, and that it is always going to be like this.
Zechariah 9:12 - "Return to your stronghold, O prisoners of hope; today I declare that I will restore to you double."
Cry out to the Lord for restoration and the Lord will not only restore the very area where the enemy has torn things to shreds, held you captive, brought delay and kept you from your breakthrough, He is also going to suddenly move you into a place of DOUBLE what you had before.
