LOOKING AT OUR WORKS

[FAITH]

We as kings and priests in God's kingdom are the anointed ones, the sons and daughters of fresh oil, endued with gifts of power, strength, and grace to enable us to accomplish the WORK we are destined for in our Christ calling.

"You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only." - James 2:24

Jesus is not looking at our intentions, wishes, or knowledge of what is right.  He is looking at our works!  Are we allowing the grace of God to produce holy living and ministering to others in our lives, or have we received the grace of God in vain?

"I know your works......" - Revelation 3:15

"So then, because you're are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth." - Revelation 3:16

Lukewarm people become like whoever they are around.  Around true followers of Jesus, they can blend in with them.  They know the Scriptures, sing the songs, and say the right statements.  Around followers of the world they think and conduct their lives in a worldly manner, that is, selfishly.  They obey God when obedience is pleasant or in their best interests.  But they are really motivated by their own desires.

 

THE CRY OF THE LORD

The cry of the Lord can be heard -- "Be loosed and arise to life, to the upward call in Christ."  Come out of the crucible of fire and be prepared as an agent of transformation.

Come to understand your Christ identity with a mindset of bearing fruit that remains for His Kingdom. Knowing that  as you are to seek first His Kingdom, you enter His presence with joy and expectation.

Get ready for God to move you out of the confines and limitations of what you have experienced in the past as you consecrate yourself to and embrace your Christ calling.
