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)

'You were made queen for just such a time as this?" Esther 4:14

It takes much effort, faith, and courage to worship when you feel like crying -- to walk around your home declaring victory over things that have been the same for years -- to speak life into those dead relationships, into your body, into your finances, into your business -- to speak the opposite of what you see and feel -- to go against everything the world says.

No one in scripture ever accomplished their calling without going through much testing, or without stepping out in faith and obedience.

It is time for you to RISE UP, shed your garments of mourning and mantle yourself with your royal robes, because the King of kings is waiting with open arms, ready to give you what is already yours!

The Holy Spirit wins battles for you by worshiping, declaring, prophesying, and thanking God for the victories you do not yet see but know are already yours because of what Jesus did on the Cross.

You have to rise up! You don't have to fear, His scepter is ALWAYS extended toward you. You don't need an invitation. His Son tore the curtain. He made it possible for you to enter His courts at any time!

Are you going to rise up and use the authority He has placed in you?
