Jeremiah 29:11-14  "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord.  thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.  Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.  And you will seek Me and find Me,  when you search for Me with all your heart."

 

John 10:27 "My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me."

 

          It is important to know where we are called to be, who we are called to be with, and what we are called to do (our DESTINY) and how we are to implement the things that God is calling us to.  We can fast, pray, strive and do all kinds of spiritual works, but if we are out of alignment, all these things may not have the full impact on our lives that we desire.

         Sometimes we just need to find out what that one thing is that God is requiring of us. It is usually one thing, not many.

  

         God will bring us into a place of utter contentment in His Presence as we come close to the Comforter, Holy Spirit.  This implies a life-style of "Walking In The Spirit";

 

THREE REQUIREMENTS TO WALKING IN THE SPIRIT:

 

Romans 6:11 -  "Even so consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus." 

(1.  Consider myself dead to sin.)

 

Ephesians 4:23-24  -  "And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; and that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness." 

 

(2.  I have to "PUT ON" walking in the Spirit.) ie. I make the decision each day to be led by my spirit rather than my soul (mind, will, and emotions). 

 

I walk with my spirit being led by the Holy Spirit.

 

Romans 12:2  -  "And do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect."

 

 (3.  I have to renew my mind to the word of God.)

 

BREAKING THROUGH TO THE NEXT LEVEL

 

  2 Peter 1:4 "By which we have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust."

 

          We are called to be sons and daughters of God.  As we grow we learn the truth of our inheritance and walk in His promises as mature sons of God.  There are SPIRITUAL IMPEDIMENTS that arise in our lives that come to lie, steal and betray us.  God is going to eliminate these impediments out of our thinking  as we lay hold of the inheritance (affirming, meditating on, and visualizing the precious promises that are ours in Christ) that He paid the price for us to walk in.  It is as if we are stuck at a certain level and cannot break through into the next until these impediments are removed.

          If we tolerate these impediments we become partakers of the nature of the enemy.  It is part of the process that our soul goes through in that we must be cleansed of the nature of evil and embrace the nature and life of the Holy Spirit.

 

UNHEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS

 

Example:  There are relationships that steal and have only selfish intent -- these will leech the life and anointing off of you.  The Lord is going to help us remove these impediments out of our lives as we yield to His heart's desires and ways;  He will give us wisdom to know the difference.

 

          When we are in proper alignment there is much more ease and grace to accomplish what God calls us to.  Sometimes God is speaking and showing us what we need to do, but we just keep doing our spiritual routines rather than the one thing He desires from us.  We will find much more grace when we simply yield to that one thing and silence the noise of all the activities.
