MY FRIENDS, THERE IS A DEVELOPMENTAL PROCESS CAN WE GET THROUGH IT?

My friends, love, faith, endurance and humility, some main requirements to finish God’s developmental process and live with Him one day in His pure and holy kingdom and receive life eternal.

And each of us must be “confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in [us] will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.” Phil 1:6 (KJV) That promise my friends was not conditional on whether it rained or snowed when you were expecting sunshine.

The road to salvation is not open for debate, that is why it is a very narrow road, and only a few will find it. Conditions are tough, “If any man [or woman] will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.” Matt. 16:24 (KKV)

“The Romans forced convicted criminals to carry their own crosses to the place they would be crucified, while facing ridicule along the way to death.” And today, that ridicule are the trials and tribulation on this journey God has placed us on.

The developmental process for our journey to the kingdom is the main deciding factor, because if we fail at the starting point, how do we get to the end of this process where self is completely diminished and Christ lives out His life through us even to the point of death.

For “I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” Gal 2:20 (KJV)

“All true obedience my friends must have a passion from within that our Savior “will so identify Himself with our thoughts and aims, so blend our hearts and minds into conformity to His will, that when obeying Him we shall be but carrying out our own impulses.

The will, refined and sanctified, will find its highest delight in doing His service. When we know God as it is our privilege to know Him, our life will be a life of continual obedience. Through an appreciation of the character of Christ, through communion with God, sin will become hateful to us. (E.G.White)

That tells us what we watch with our eyes, and what we hear with our ears, and what comes out of our mouth, and where our feet takes us from day to day are main characteristics in our developmental process to the promise land.

My friends remember “No weapon formed against you shall prosper,” because  God will never “leave or forsake” his true and faithful warriors. That is why we must never give up until the developmental process is over and we are victorious while remaining focused on our example, Jesus Christ.

Acts 20:24 (KJV) states “But I count my life of no value to myself, so that I may finish my course and the ministry I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of God’s grace.” This my friends is where we end this process with the words, “I count my life of no value to myself, so that I may finish my course, and the ministry of Christ”

And then after we “have fought a good fight, and  finished our course, and kept our faith” Finally, there is laid up for [the redeemed] the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to all of His faithful at His appearing.” 2 cor. 4:7-8 (NKJV)

As we enter that place “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” 1 Cor. 2:9 (NKJV)

So friends stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
