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)

"Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes. For you will spread out to the right and to the left; ...Do not be afraid; ...Do not fear; you will not be humiliated..." (Isaiah 54:2-4)
Shake off the grave clothes of the former season as they will not fit you any longer. You must purpose not to remain in the place of former battles, lack, or pain. Instead, set your gaze on Him and lift your expectation to believe Him for immeasurably more than you have even thought to ask. You have believed Him for a measure when He has for you abundance.
See His love flowing through your heart and replenish the living waters that flow in and through you. His living water will awaken in you a renewed passion and zeal to disciple and equip others for the army of Christ. He is restoring your youth and giving you wings to soar like the eagle. But first, come away with Him by the still, cool waters, and He will renew your soul.
Rid yourself of small, limited thinking and walk with Him on this journey of intimacy and the adventure of your Christ calling. He is calling you to rise above and soar like an eagle. Renew your strength in Him and you will find supernatural grace for fruit bearing for His Kingdom. Don't let the familiar pull you away from the new. It is a time for the new: new beginnings, new assignments, new lands, and new discipling opportunities!
He is calling you to take new land and conquer giants. Your operating system will be 'not by might, nor by power, but by His Spirit (see Zechariah 4:6).
