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)

"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 back -- freedom from the entanglements of your mind.

Your language is changing from 'I can't' to a new paradigm shift of 'I can,' and new boldness is forming in you. You have been under His renovation. You now walk in the revelation and have the understanding that you are changing and it is good, and that you are not who you thought you once were, but you are becoming who you were always meant to be. You are no longer defined by what others think of you, and they are no longer a hindrance to you from stepping into what He has for you -- He is empowering you to bear fruit that remains for His Kingdom. The love of Jesus is saturating your heart.

"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with My righteous right hand." (Isaiah 41:10)
