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)

The Power Of Our Witness To Others
Posted 08-20-2023 at 07:23 PM by Albert Finch
John 14:30 - "I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming. He has no claim on me, (He has nothing in common with Me; there is nothing in Me that belongs to him, and he has no power over Me)."
Scripture teaches us that we must be satisfied with the consequences of our words (Proverbs 18:21), and if we are going to be, then we need to be very careful what we say! Our words have consequences, and we need to use them wisely. Jesus knew that He was approaching a very important time in His life and He was determined not to give Satan any power over Him through unwise words.
Prayer:
Father, help me be quiet when I am in danger of saying things that I will regret later on. Teach me to think before I speak!
