-Galations 2:20
I have been crucified with Christ: it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.
In this series we want to look through the eyes of faith to see the new vision of where we must go........
As leaders, keeping in mind, we are His instruments,
His mouthpiece, His hands and feet, reaching and teaching the world around us.
Are we here because we are worthy to be here,
indeed not, and if we wait until we are worthy or feel worthy, then we are deceived...for none of us are worthy....it is only because His grace bypassed all of our unworthiness and shortcomings and brought us to the power of the cross.
It is when we empty out all of ourselves and comprehend that the more we let go of ourself and who we are and seek to be one with Christ, that
we truly understand "True Leadership"...
For His path for us sometimes is not a pleasant one,
sometimes it is a path filled with obstacles, and it does not satisfy our own selfish desires...but it will be a path that empties our heart of all self will, with a deep understanding and knowledge that we cannot do it alone.
But a FAITH that says...I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me.
You see when we seek to build a sense of a secure self worth, we are building on shifting sands...
Personal performance and opinions of others can be our downfall as we end up tossed about in a sea of
self doubt and deep anxiety.
Ephesians 4:13-14
Until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature,
attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ, then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming.
Instead, speaking the TRUTH in love, we will in all things grow up into Him who is the Head, that is Christ.
In Him and through Him we have gained access to attain all that our heavenly father has for us, and as leaders we must use this to war against the strongholds of satan that have invaded not only the world but the body of Christ.
We must become overcomers through whom Jesus can work, for there is an enemy to be contested and defeated. For we know this cannot come by any other avenue except by emptying our heart of self will and submit to the will of Jesus Christ that through His power we can stand in the strength and power He truly shed His blood for us to attain, that we not only know Him in the fellowship of His suffering but we know Him as the conquering Lion,
to bring down the stronghold of satan in the lives of
those around us.
We can be secure in Him, and stand as a tree strong and great whose roots run deep into the foundation of the earth, not swiftly uprooted nor swayed.
Galations 5:1
Standfast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free; and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
Live my friends in the realm of FAITH, let your faith soar freely again...Calling things that are not as though they were...Speak it into the atmosphere...
Do not be afraid to believe God again...many of us in times past have been let down by ourselves and honestly let down by others and in a natural reaction we have felt let down by our faith.
The reason in times past that we have failed is because we try to bring God into our lives on our own terms...we give only enough of ourselves to make us feel secure...but truly when we empty ourself out in complete submission to God's will in our life can we find ourselves brought out of bondage.
All sin is binding, In Christ is freedom, because in Him is true holiness and purity, man will never be holy enough within himself but it is our constant desire for purity that will be our safeguard against the desire to return to the bondage and sin of the world.
For the carnal nature of man is hostile towards God, but the Holy Spirit within us is ever crying " Abba Father "...
And I hear the spirit crying out to me and you today..
Purify your heart so that I can be glorified in you...
Do you love me more than anything else in this world? Why is it that you do not seek me, why is it that you do not hunger and thirst after me? You are too wrapped up in yourself to know that I have already made full provision for you, for your every need ...Seek me ...Cry out to me...Come unto me...Hunger for me...For it is I, the only one that can bring true satisfaction to your soul.
Galations 5:16
This I say then, walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh...
Stand firm in your convictions, for I know the instability of the human heart and understand natural affections.
I understand what it means to be let down, and misunderstood, to be lied on, to be despised by men,
And still I loved with my life, I gave it freely even for those who had forsaken me.
I am calling Leaders to a lifechanging place in me,
A place where TRUTH will shine like the brightest light in the dark of night and Love will radiate upon men like the sun, and Faith is as simple as a word spoken brought to life.
And a people who will allow my ways to become their ways and my hearts cry will be their own...where brother can stand beside brother and sister with sister and in the unity of my spirit become one body with me.
Here it is...And we can have it all as we fall back into the arms of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and as
we cease to struggle in our own strength and just give ourself away.....
For the anointed of the Lord must surely stand up in this hour to subdue the kingdom...
We must stand against the voice of evil and destruction with a fervant faith, standing on a sure foundation, Jesus Christ.
We must battle in the spirit, not in the flesh, Let God Arise!!! and His enemies be scattered!!!
For we have a harvest to reach and God is calling for Leaders who are willing to give their all to Him...
Those who will speak TRUTHS that are not easily recieved by man, for men have sought the easy path, they have chosen the path that has brought them self edification and the path that fulfills their own desires, but now God is calling for Leaders who will walk the path God has chosen for them even if the road becomes a little bumpy at times, even if there are obtacles that may slow us down, we will have FAITH that speaks to the mountains, as we walk right through...
Romans 12:2
Do Not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is...his good, pleasing and perfect will...
in you.
Take on the mind of Christ, walk in Him...He will change you...He will perfect you...He will use you...
He will make you the Leader He has called you to be.
So go ahead...Give yourself away....into the " ARMY OF THE LORD " !!!
