When we are ready, Christ will pour us out as an offering:

Brokenness is the end result of our salvation. We cannot walk the same walk after that. Christ will have H is way in our lives. He will squeeze us into uncomfortable places and change us. The Spiritual transformation has already taken place. Now He will point our feet in the right direction. The result: We will be poured out as a drink offering, no longer for ourselves, but for those whom Chirst chose to reach through us.

Oneness With Christ Involves Dying to Self

To be a disciple of Jesus Christ, it requires you give up all rights to yourself and follow Him. It is more than trusting in Him alone for salvation, it requires a singular purpose and identification in this world which is His will for you. Few people can give up all their rights. These personal rights are not necessarily sinful, but whatever good or bad exists outside of Christ must be forfieted in order to pick up your cross to follow Him.

For He knows what is in man...

With our mouth, we profess great works and loyalty. But in our heart, it is still full of wrath so He knows what is in man. On our best day, we submit to His power and let Him do with us what He wills.

Reconcilation produces freedom and life

Short of reconcilation, we labor with a hindered spirit. The Spirit of God places within us the freedom of a clear conscience to do His work. We should not grieve the spirit by tension among the bretheren. Therefore make it a point to be reconciled to one another, without placing blame so that we can be freed up to serve God.

If we are to be His disciple, it will be through grace

We cannot fill the shoes of one fully surrendered to Jesus, hating our own life in favor of His without supernatural power in us. The Bible teaches that we did not chose Him, but He chose us.
Therefore we should follow Him in the Spirit by faith for His Kingdom comes.

The Spirit of God Examines Us

We are not as good as we think we are. In our minds, we imagine ourself to be ones of Great Sacrifice for our Lord. "I will never betray You Lord. Even if I must die, I will never betray You." Do those words sound familiar? Sadly we are no better. We must pray that we yield to the Spirit of God and not only admit our sins, but confess them.

Jesus is both Teacher and Master

If Jesus is not your teacher and master, He is not part of you. Master is greater than friend, because no servant is greater than his master and the master knows all things. The master loves us and we love our master, not because he compels our love, but because his love as our example is greater than our own and we follow the master.
