Transition to Purpose

We are in the Hebraic year 5770 and about to enter the New Year 2010 which will be a year of transition, alignment and incredible change for the Church as we move from faith to faith and glory to glory. We have been positioned during 2009 to enter the next phase in our journey with the Lord. Although there will be continued and increased moral and spiritual decay, frightening weather patterns and conflicts between nations, we focus not on the problems of the world but on our loving God for the Church is entering it's finest hour.

2009 - year of repositioning - this year has proved to be one of great change. Some changes were negative but they were necessary for our spiritual growth. Some things were designed by Heaven to cause us to release faith to be propelled forward in God. In the world of exercise and sports, the slogan is "no pain; no gain." God has allowed changes (some painful, some not) in order to get our minds to shift from self to Him. Our dependency must be on the Holy Spirit.

We have to change our mindset...as a man thinks, so is he! We must see ourselves walking as kings and priests. We are not called to be broken down and paupers. We are a Holy nation and a royal people. We are called to walk in the supernatural and maturity! God is giving His people revelation, regardless of the denomination, that we are cut from the same stone and that stone is Christ. Mature Believers will not be divided by denomination or doctrinal issues as in the past. God is increasing fruit in His people. We will be known for the love we have for one another. God's people will demonstrate His love and authority in their lives by loving one another. We will see the gifts of healing and discerning of spirits explode in the Church to glorify Christ

In this next season, the remnant will understand that wey must seek the Lord with all our heart. We must pursue Him daily. We should not have to be prodded and pumped up to praise God. When we sacrifice our schedules to make time for God we will receive fresh revelation from Him to know how to transition in every area in our lives. This transition is not just for the Harvest or for our personal ministries but it is also very personal for us. God is deeply in tune with our needs, concerns, joys and victories. Trust God in this season of transition and alignment to go through the open door.

Expect wonderful encounters with God. You will find God moving in every area of your life. The Word tells us to seek Him and we will find Him but Jesus also revealed that the Father is seeking worshippers. When we seek God and He seek us, that is what I call a Holy, divine convergence. Things will happen! When you come out of this kind of worship, people will know that you were with God. You will know God's heart and His ways.

As we see the world darken around us, our light will become brighter. Technology will continue to stagger the imagination but the Church will amaze the people with the power we possess to set people free, to declare and decree, but the greatest power we will possess is God's (agape)love. God will fill His people with the fruit of the Spirit but the fruit of peace will stagger the world. This peace will cause the world to take notice of the Church because of the darkness that will surround them. Increased worldly knowledge does not equal increased happiness. As the world's knowledge increase and technology take our breath away; many will beocme dependent on the scholars of the world instead of the creator God. Many will think that scientists have discovered the secrets of life and that a creator God is obsolete and therefore Christianity is obsolete but this thinking is far from the truth. God will allow man to discover knowledge that has been hidden from him until the time of the end and these inventions and knowledge will make man think that He no longer need God. Although knowledge will increase, worry and fear will also increase until the one man steps up and declare that He has the answers to the problems that will arise in the world. This will be a time that the true people of God will have to trust and believe what the Bible says regarding living in faith. Knowledge puffs up and will cause many in the Church to lose faith in those things they formerly believed. But this will be a time that has been prophesized in the Book of Daniel. God told Daniel to seal up the Book until the time of the end when knowledge will increase. For the Believer, we are seeing fulfilment of the Word of God and that God's Word is true concerning mankind and His return. The Church's finest hour is upon us. Be blessed.
