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 11-01-2023 at 01:15 AM by Albert Finch


We are in a time where the Lord is calling you to arise, step into the promise and take your territory -- in the next stage of your divine destiny. There are no breakthroughs without a life of sacrifice. In this season the Lord is calling you to lay down your personal plans and agendas and move forward into all He has for you. Arise and take your place. He will meet you as you step out in obedience to the assignment He presently has for you. He has paid the price for you, now walk in all He has prepared. Arise and walk in all you were called to be.

This is a time when the Lord calls you to have faith and step out on His leading. He will meet you at your obedience and show you the way forward. As a child of God you are an heir of God and co-heir with Jesus -- you are the hands and feet of Jesus as you walk out God's purpose for your life.

As you are an heir of God and co-heir with Jesus. God wants you to be effective in moving His Kingdom forward and. know what is available to you from Him. The word of God unveils your dominion and authority in Christ so you can be effective in bearing fruit that remains for God's advancing Kingdom. The Lord is calling you to claim and walk in your Christ identity as you come to understand your Christ calling.

"For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God." - Romans 8:14

Allow the Lord to lead you in developing vision as you move forward in the world-changing assignment He is giving you. Obediently move out in the power of the Holy Spirit, onto the path of promise and the next step of your Christ inspired destiny. Claim the inheritance and territory that is waiting for you!
