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)

"...EVEN NOW whatever You will ask of God, God will give it to You" (John 11:22).

Today, you may be looking at dead circumstances all around you, and if that is the case right now rise up in faith -- speak to that hopeless and lifeless situation. Speak to the Lord in faith -- "Lord, I believe you for an 'EVEN NOW' miracle."

"Behold, I will do a new thing; NOW IT SHALL SPIRING FORTH..." (Isaiah 43:19)

When God calls you forth (John 11:43). it does not matter who has buried you, or who does not like it, or who celebrated your funeral...there is nothing that anyone can do and there is no power on Earth that can stop that supernatural surge of God's Word calling you forth!

You are breathing but you are lifeless. Hear the Spirit of the Lord declaring to you today, "Come forth!" See a sudden surge of God's power, answers to prayer, and an outpouring of His Spirit. Keep praying, keep standing, and keep contending.
