December 9, 2023 – Exhortation

Posted 12-09-2023 at 11:40 AM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

The Holy Spirit’s desire is that we live every day in the fullness of the Lord, by seeing above and beyond what we can do to advance God's Kingdom, and that Jesus would receive glory and honor through His great power that works in us and through us.

This is the essence of what Paul writes about in Ephesians 3:20, 21 - "Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ...

Instruments For Noble Purposes

Posted 12-08-2023 at 11:43 PM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

No one wants to make another trip through the wilderness. This is not a time to walk in circles. We are to walk with a true goal, aim, and purpose, making the most of each occasion, because we know the time is short (see Ephesians 5:14-17). Paul, the apostle, instructs us to walk purposefully toward one true goal -- God's PURPOSE for our life (see Philippians 3:12-16).

Unless we enter into our eternal identities (our DESTINY), we will not become instruments for noble purposes. We...

"After this, I looked, and there before me was a door standing open in Heaven. And the voice I had first heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, 'Come up here, I will show you what must take place after this.'" (Revelation 4:1)

As you come to understand your Christ calling you will ascend and have many ascensions in the coming season, conquering many obstacles that have held you back – but no longer, as He is making a way for you to overcome ALL that tries to hold you...

Transitioning Into God's Plan

Posted 12-07-2023 at 11:39 PM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

We must be a burning and shining people who know where we are headed, fixing our eyes on our destiny, if we are going to awaken broken and disillusioned hearts!

Jesus is not looking at our intentions, wishes, or knowledge of what is right. He is looking at our works! Are we allowing the grace of God to produce holy living and ministering to others in our lives, or have we received the grace of God in vain?

"I know your works......" - Revelation 3:15

Limitless Dispensers Of The Light

Posted 12-07-2023 at 04:47 PM by Albert Finch (How Do I Advance My Spiritual Life?)

Matthew 9:37,38 - "Then He said to His disciples, "The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest."

The Greek word translated "send out" is "ekballo", which at the root level means to "drive out." "Ballo" is where we derive the English word for "ballistic." There is force and sense of urgency, a driving out, a thrusting out of laborers...
