1. MAKE YOUR ELECTION SURE! Dear friend of revival, God has called you into heavenly life style by His goodness and love. He wants to strengthen you, purify you and raise you up into the form of the Glorious Bride, because the Great Wedding Celebration is coming. The love of God is shining upon you and He has prepared you the way up to the highest end. His love calls you and strengthens you. Receive a new revelation about Jesus and be empowered in the radiation of His glory! The salvation plan of God is simple. You surrender your life to Jesus in such a way that He can take away your sinful character, sicknesses, oppression of demons, poverty plus other curses and fill you with NEW LIFE in the Holy Spirit and power. In this process Jesus transforms you into a new creature. He gives you health, abundance, blessing even in this age and the fulfilment in heaven with God. You are already commanded to be a co-heir with Christ and you will receive an immeasurable reward and heritance. You will enjoy and worship God in His awesome heavenly glory. The best thing in this divine trade is that Jesus Himself has 'financed' completely your share of this trade on His cross on the Calvary. This means that you must not pay for anything except give away your old life and receive the new life in Christ. The general terms of this trade are: ALL THIS WILL BE YOURS, IF YOU STAY STRONG IN FAITH! Glory to God! 2 Pet 1:10-11: Wherefore, brethren, give the more diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never stumble: for thus shall be richly supplied unto you the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Peter urges US TO MAKE OUR CALLING AND ELECTION SURE, because in the Covenant relationship we are responsible for our part. All the foundations of the New Covenant have been laid and established on the cross of Calvary. In Jesus God did all that was impossible for a man. Our part as partners of the covenant is to do all that is impossible for God. Our part is to believe and receive the whole salvation of Jesus and the plan of the new life. We will do it because God has revealed His love to us. His love calls us and therefore we desire with burning heart to become united with Him! God's salvation plan is equal for everyone. He has prepared it in such a way, that you are definitely able to catch it. The salvation means both earthly and eternal blessing. Catch the whole blessing of salvation even in this age, because it belongs to you as well as the glorious life in heaven. Your position here is to live and operate as an anointed one of God - through Jesus. He has called you into love relationship with Him to proclaim Jesus and make disciples of all nations. When Jesus manifests Himself in your life He will be able to effectively operate and call other people into His Kingdom through your ministry! 2. SEARCH FOR THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR HEART Jer 24:7: And I will give them a heart to know me, that I am Jehovah: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God; for they shall return unto me with their whole heart. Jer 29:11-14: For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith Jehovah, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope in your latter end. And ye shall call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. And I will be found of you, saith Jehovah, and I will turn again your captivity… God calls you to have a new encounter with Him. The Holy Spirit has refreshed, healed and cleansed you. Your faith has been strengthened and your vision about the Kingdom of God has clarified and established. No you are more persistent than ever IN SEEKING FOR THE LORD WITH YOUR WHOLE HEART AND MEET HIM in a new, supernatural way. When you search for the Lord with all of your heart, you will confess, renounce and reject all that the Word of God says to be wrong. In this purification process you will shout to the Lord and open your spirit increasingly for His deeper touch. You will know how Jesus deals with certain things in your heart and delivers you. Then at some stage you will face the situation, where you do not know anymore what to do. You do not know how to renounce deeper, how you would believe more or what would you proclaim stronger. At the end of your surrender you will be in a supernatural silence where even God seems to be silent. Jesus seems to withdraw further from you and you may not hear any special message from the Holy Spirit. You will be facing the Holy God, His Majesty, who calls you to surrender your heart fully. This situation will kill your natural aspirations, because your own performance has reached its end. This will be the greatest and most desirable moment of your life, because it produces a breakthrough into the supernatural! In the supernatural silence before Him you may speak in this way: "Dear Jesus, here I am. You know me and see through me. I do not explain anything to You. I do not require anything from you. I reject my own agenda and accept Your plan. I just want to step into Your world without any desire to return into my own plans. I surrender myself without conditions. I trade my life to You, as I am now. Please receive my heart and life. Let me have what you have prepared for me. Let Your will happen in my life and let Your reign come into my life. Amen!" When you hand over your old life and heart to Jesus, He will reveal Himself to you in a new and powerful way. Jesus will fill you with His love and glory in the moment when your heart is surrendered completely. He will immerse you into His cleansing fire and healing anointing. The heaven will be open for you and you will receive the peace which you never caught before. You may experience a sudden healing or some other great blessing for your life just in that moment, because Jesus brings an awesome blessing with Him - when you have allowed Him to enter in your life without conditions. Rev 4:8-11: …and the four living creatures, having each one of them six wings, are full of eyes round about and within: and they have no rest day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who is to come. AND WHEN THE LIVING CREATURES SHALL GIVE GLORY AND HONOR AND THANKS TO HIM THAT SITTETH ON THE THRONE, TO HIM THAT LIVETH FOR EVER AND EVER, THE FOUR AND TWENTY ELDERS SHALL FALL DOWN BEFORE HIM THAT SITTETH ON THE THRONE, AND SHALL WORSHIP HIM THAT LIVETH FOR EVER AND EVER, AND SHALL CAST THEIR CROWNS BEFORE THE THRONE, SAYING, Worthy art thou, our Lord and our God, to receive the glory and the honor and the power: for thou didst create all things, and because of thy will they were, and were created. Look at this perfection of praise, worship and devotion in heaven! Twenty four elders are casting there crowns before Jesus CONTINUALLY, AGAIN AND AGAIN. By presenting their crowns they present their life, blessing and love to the Lord. The privilege and purpose of their life is to cast everything they are to the Lord! This is the goal of our surrender. As soon as we accept that our life style is to present our life continuously and without limits to Jesus, we have reached the condition of full surrender! Do you want to surrender your life unto the Lord in this manner? Or do you keep in your heart some loophole or plan inspired by your fleshy desires? Are there blocks of bitterness, hatred or unbelief, which would hinder you to surrender your life fully? Even in this situation we have Good News for you! You will be able to confess and reject all inequity from you heart and make the decision of full surrender. The Holy Spirit is upon you and He teaches and strengthens you. His call is strong and shocking but you will be able to receive it. Praise the Lord! 3. INSTRUCTION FOR YOUR SPIRITUAL GROWTH 2 Tim 2:19-22: Howbeit the firm foundation of God standeth, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his: and, Let every one that nameth the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness. Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some unto honor, and some unto dishonor. IF A MAN THEREFORE PURGE HIMSELF FROM THESE, HE SHALL BE A VESSEL UNTO HONOR, SANCTIFIED, MEET FOR THE MASTER’S USE, PREPARED UNTO EVERY GOOD WORK. But flee youthful lusts, and follow after righteousness, faith, love, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. Apostle Paul teaches Timothy how to grow into the anointing that Jesus had prepared for him. You are in the same position as Timothy. You must stand up, receive the anointing and reach the fullness of your calling. The apostolic calling awaits you also. Therefore, receive these directions with most reverent and obedient attitude! Jesus knows exactly how you are. Do not explain anything to Him! The fire of the Holy Spirit is upon your life in order to purge darkness out from you. You can not negotiate about any area of cleansing with God. The best you can do is to surrender quickly and completely. Then you will receive the fulfilment of the promise: YOU WILL BECOME A VESSEL UNTO HONOUR FOR JESUS! Glory to God! Throw yourself on His arms, be immersed in the Holy Fire and be melt into His love! If you want to grow quickly and achieve your calling, you need to get rid of sinful life and unholy connections. If you would open up your life and heart in a wrong company you would be forced to fight against unbelief and filthiness all the time. Then the enemy may attack you and destroy your sprouting efforts of faith. The unclean hearts are spreading their kind of influence around them. Therefore, for you spiritual growth, 'follow after righteousness, faith, love, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart'. Do not think humanly but instead ask the advice from the Holy Spirit. Only God knows the hearts of the people. He is able to show you the fellowship that will lead you into the greatest blessings. When you are strengthened, the Holy Spirit may lead you to minister, teach and disciple those who need deep cleaning in their hearts. You may become even anointed for this kind of ministry. But in order to grow in the Lord you need a right kind of fellowship where you can open your life and receive from God without fear and confusion. It is better to have fellowship for this purpose with one person - who has similar devotion, purity and hunger for the increasing anointing of the Holy Spirit - than hang around with a bunch of confused and unclean people. 4. CONFESSION OF YOUR MOUTH ACTIVATES YOUR FAITH God's order for receiving all His blessings and gifts is faith of your heart and confession of your mouth. This concerns both the eternal salvation into heaven and all the salvation (healing, deliverance, life, ministry, success) in this life. Rom 10:9-10: …because if thou shalt confess with thy mouth Jesus as Lord, and shalt believe in thy heart that God raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved: FOR WITH THE HEART MAN BELIEVETH UNTO RIGHTEOUSNESS; AND WITH THE MOUTH CONFESSION IS MADE UNTO SALVATION. Let the Word of God descend into your heart. Take hold on it - consider it fully trustworthy and real - because that what it definitely is! When the faith is born in your heart you need to activate it by confessing with your mouth all that you believe to receive. The confession of your mouth must precede the manifestation of the visible answers. This is simply because you are called to live by faith and not by seeing! Proclaim following truths in Jesus - daily and out loud: 1) Thank you Jesus that you have saved me. You have delivered me for the bondages of sin, sickness and death. I praise You Jesus, because I am Yours. Thank You Jesus for the Heaven that is waiting for me! Ef. 1:3-7: Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ: even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blemish before him in love: having foreordained us unto adoption as sons through Jesus Christ unto himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, to the praise of the glory of his grace, which he freely bestowed on us in the Beloved: in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace… 2) I thank You Jesus, because You live and reign in me. I believe that I am able to surrender myself fully to You. I believe that with You I have overcome sin and darkness. In Your name I will rise up and grow up as a new creature towards Your image. 2 Cor 5:14-17: For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that one died for all, therefore all died; and he died for all, that they that live should no longer live unto themselves, but unto him who for their sakes died and rose again. Wherefore we henceforth know no man after the flesh: even though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now we know him so no more. Wherefore if any man is in Christ, he is a new creature: the old things are passed away; behold, they are become new. 3) I thank You Jesus for the Holy Spirit, that You have given me. I believe that I will be filled increasingly with Your Spirit. I believe that I can be filled fully with the Holy Spirit and power. I Thank You Jesus for the presence of Your Spirit in my life. I believe that all the gifts of the Spirit may operate through me. 1 Cor 12:7-11: But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit to profit withal. For to one is given through the Spirit the word of wisdom; and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit: to another faith, in the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, in the one Spirit; and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discernings of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; and to another the interpretation of tongues: but all these worketh the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each one severally even as he will. 4) I thank You Jesus, that You have carried all my sicknesses and diseases upon the cross and took upon Yourself all the wages of my sin, punishment and curses. I believe that in Your name I have the right to be healed and stay healthy. I believe that Your Holy Spirit will make me alive and well in all areas of my life. Rom 8:9-11: But ye are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you. But if any man hath not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the spirit is life because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwelleth in you, he that raised up Christ Jesus from the dead shall give life also to your mortal bodies through his Spirit that dwelleth in you. 5) I thank You Jesus, that in You I have life and abundance. Thank You Jesus that I may surrender unto You in such a way that Your increasing glory will fill my life. In the name of Jesus I believe for myself freedom from all lack and poverty in all areas of my life. John 10:9-10: I am the door; by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and go out, and shall find pasture. The thief cometh not, but that he may steal, and kill, and destroy: I CAME THAT THEY MAY HAVE LIFE, AND MAY HAVE IT ABUNDANTLY. 6) I thank You Jesus, that You have called and anointed me to serve You and my neighbours. I believe to receive increasing anointing, power and capacity from You in order to fulfil my calling. Mark 16:15-18: And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieveth shall be condemned. And these signs shall accompany them that believe: in my name shall they cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall in no wise hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. 7) I thank You Jesus, that I have everything enough and I can give to those, who are needy. Thank You for the renewing of my heart in love and generosity. I believe, that I can support in many blessed ways the work of Your Kingdom and receive Your reward here on the earth and become a part taker of the eternal reward in heaven! Luke 6:38: …give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, shall they give into your bosom. For with what measure ye mete it shall be measured to you again. 5. THE POWERFUL WITNESS OF LOVE The greatest and most influential witness of Jesus in us is His Divine Love. This kind of love is unselfish, humble, clean and supernaturally strong. The power of love, which comes from Jesus, has given birth to your new creature. The witness of Jesus in your heart will change you and transform you into another person in love. The love of God is the realm where all presence and influence of the devil is destroyed. In the 'agape' love of the Father there is salvation, forgiveness of sins, healing from sicknesses and hurts, deliverance from demons and all kind of curses of the sin. 1 John 4:16-17: And we know and have believed the love which God hath in us. God is love; and he that abideth in love abideth in God, and God abideth in him. Herein is love made perfect with us, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as he is, even so are we in this world. Be increasingly filled with the love of God! Open your heart to Jesus, renounce from all devilish character, bitterness and hatred in your heart. Believe that you will be free from all these through Jesus, because this is the content and power of His Good News! Forgive and reject all hardness, severity and critical mind towards your neighbours. Proclaim that the law of love is ruling your life! Profess your high calling and take your position in Jesus! Obey the highest order that Jesus has commanded for your life. Receive increasingly the anointing of the Holy Spirit, because …the love of God hath been shed abroad in our hearts through the Holy Spirit which was given unto us. (Rom 5:5) The most profound and effective motive of faith is the love of God. The flow of His love has already come into your heart and it will cause the God kind of faith become strong in you. This kind of faith leads you to heal, save and deliver people that are in the bondage of darkness and without any hope. Gal 5:6: For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision; but faith working through love. Col 3:14: …and above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfectness. Love is the bond of the perfectness. All, what God makes, will be manifested in love and truth. Therefore Apostle Paul - after teaching about the gifts of the Holy Spirit - wrote in his letter to the Corinthians: "…and moreover a most excellent way show I unto you". After this he taught about the 'agape' love of God (1 Cor 13). The love of God is the key and fulfilment of all Divine life. But what character makes the love so profound? Song 8:6: Set me as a seal upon thy heart, As a seal upon thine arm: For love is strong as death; Jealousy is cruel as Sheol; The flashes thereof are flashes of fire, A very flame of Jehovah. Love is strong as death! In love and in death there is something similar. Both powers will seize its object totally and irrevocably. Both powers will remove you into other life wherefrom there is no return. Transformation into the love of God means definite death to sin and new life in Jesus and the glory of God. God's love compelled Him to give His only begotten Son into death for us. Your love towards God compels you to bring death to your sinful nature! The love of God is flash of fire, the very flame of Jehovah! When the love of God seizes your heart, you will rise up into inner life of faith where the death and devil is totally defeated. You are separated into the realm of God's glory, where everything is possible for him that believes! The love relationship between you and Jesus draws the saving, healing and delivering touch of God into your life. In you there will burn a divine fire, which desires to touch your every neighbour with His healing love! Glory to God! Invite this kind of love into your heart! Surrender unto His love and be immersed in the divine realm on God. Let His fire burn in you forever! Believe that you will have this kind of new life in the love of God! Amen. With love in Jesus Christ  |
