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)

Your First Message From Jesus
Posted 11-22-2023 at 03:58 PM by Albert Finch
"His disciples came to point out to Him the buildings of the temple. But He answered them....Truly, I say to you, there will not be left here one stone upon another, that will not be thrown down." - Matthew 24:1,2
Jesus said, in effect, 'I am the temple of the new dispensation. I am going to take the place of this old temple and I am going to be ALL that that temple represented, but in a fuller and better way.'
POWER OF THE CROSS-LIFE
Let His cross consume you – let his Word transform you – let His freedom transfuse you through the blood of the cross.
Feel His cross, feel His blood – it is real, it is truth. He is alive forevermore and so are you.
As His cross becomes your cross, know He has hidden you in His cross.
Let the Spirit of the Living God consume the flesh, so that in His Spirit you will live and move and have your being.
Cast not the blood of Jesus – let the blood consume – let His blood be the fuel for the fire of the cross.
YOUR FIRST MESSAGE
It is very possible that your first message from Jesus will not be words but an urgency you feel. You are starting to care about something beyond your own life. You are being influenced by the yearnings of God. He is depositing in you His grief and His love so you can respond to a specific need (your Christ Calling).
May we crave His presence increasingly and take it to a dying world. May we be so infused with Him, such a conduit for Him, that people are forever changed wherever we go. May others see Him and sense Him in us, and desire His great salvation.
