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)

October 30, 2023 – Exhortation

Posted 10-29-2023 at 10:30 PM by Albert Finch


He is preparing His Bride through the raising up of His family. His purifying fire is refining, and His baptism of fire is igniting. He is calling you out to arise and take your place.

"Is not My word like fire, declares the LORD, and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?" (Jeremiah 23:29)

Now is the time to speak forth His word with boldness on the leading of His Spirit and see His fire fall to annihilate the plans of the enemy, and see the path before you made straight. His word is like fire, and as you speak forth His word, you speak forth fire from Heaven.

You have had your character forged in the fire and your faith strengthened to a degree that you will now step out with ferocious faith, for you have seen His faithfulness. The fire of His word released through you silences the enemy.

His roar is released through you. You reflect and radiate Him; therefore, you release His roar and sound. The roar of the fire of your words and sound is one of breakthrough, alignment to truth, and an overturning of the plans of the enemy. The fire of your roar is burning that which is not of God and is making the way clear, for your roar is one of authority and power.

This is your hour where you will equip, train, nurture, and disciple those souls who are new in Christ. You will support and guide them as they come to understand their Christ identity and God's purpose for their life. His family is arising, -- now they can carry the FIRE!
