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)

Posted 10-09-2023 at 12:06 AM by Albert Finch
In this new season, God is bringing forth His remnant from out of the shadows. They're coming out of the back streets and the alleyways, and they are coming to the front of the pack to be those who would recast, reforge, and represent His Church -- the new Bride in the glory that she was meant to reveal.
Those who are stuck in the old paradigm will have to choose whom they serve. Will they serve the Lord, or do they serve religion? Will they serve themselves? Will they serve mammon? They'll have to come out of those paradigms and make the decisions, or they'll be left behind in dead works and performance – that which does not carry any of His glory.
He is breaking the neck of the Ichabod ("the glory has departed Church") --- 1 Samuel 4:21. He is breaking that which carries no glory, and is leading His Church back into its time of glory. He is leading His Church back into its time where the streams will make glad the city of our God. It will be a time people will say, "Can you see what the Lord has done?" And people will say, "God is truly moving and alive in the earth, and Jesus is Lord!"
TODAY you break out of the shell, break out of the place of apathy and the place of forfeit that you've been in. Arise and shine, Reveal the glory that you are called to -- step into your Christ calling. Do not hold back. Stretch forth your tent pegs (Isaiah 54:2). The Lord is saying "Birth with Me!" No more barrenness -- God is bringing forth His Kingdom from the ashes through you.
