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)

MEDITATIONS ON JESUS – July 30, 2021
Posted 07-30-2021 at 09:46 AM by Albert Finch
He is high and lifted up; He is the Bright and Morning Star, and the fairest of 10,000.
He is more precious than gold, and He's the glory and lifter of my head.
He is the righteous Judge; He is a refuge for the oppressed; and He doesn't forget the cry of the humble.
He himself bore my sicknesses, and he carried my pains; He was despised and rejected of men; and now He controls the destiny of the nations -- the kingdoms of this world are going to become the Kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and forever.
He is my portion and my inheritance; His garments smell of sweet myrrh; and His breath is as sweet apples. He is a very present help in time of trouble.
