Christian Living
This to those who desire to be a step closer to Jesus.
Many people talk about the next level and it is all good. Many more people are content to stay where they are. Some of those people wonder at times why their life seems to stand still to the point of unfulfillment. When a person decides to go to the next level in Christ, they have made a wise decision.
Jesus went thruogh various stages in His Ministry leading to the point where he accomplished His destiny at His ressurection. He died only to live again. We to must die to live again. The shadow of death is even scary. Death itself is no joke.
But just as The Holy Spirit raised Jesus from the dead, it will also raise us from the dead as well.
It will raise us up in our finance, emotionally, physically, mentally, spiritually, and we will know The working of God when we yeild to Him. When we decide to go to the next level in Christ, we must be careful. The enemy will work harder to stop us. So we must work harder for Christ. We must Love more, pray more, live for Christ more, help others more, have more compassion, longsuffering, patience, and a love for life. god is calling for True Worship. People who will not only pray, but get off our knees and show love even to the world. It is the lost sheep that need to be found not the found sheep. They only need to be kept safe.
The next level will come whether you are ready or not. What I've found is people tend to prepare for this next level their whole life. This allows life to pass them by. But Christ Jesus said dont worry about what tommorow brings. Today's concerns are enough for today. He said look at the birds, God takes care of them and feeds them and gives them shelter. How much more are we than they? he said won't He not take care of us as well? The next level is a closer walk with God in our communication with Him. It is understanding more of His word. Only so you can then turn and point others to Christ.
Some never get to the next level because it is all about what we want and not The Will of God. The next level simply means GROWTH was achieved in Christ. But it was in Christ. It was Christ in us. So when you mingled with the lost, Christ went with you because He was in you. You let Your Light shine and they saw Jesus, not YOU. When people let their ego die, and allow Christ be the center stage, and be the theme; You will be on the next level for sure.
For those who are wise, this has been written for your understanding. May you share it with all who wish to grow in Christ.

Exactly! The well don't need a physician. And those who are in darkness are the ones who need us to be a light. The more we die to ourselves and learn to lean on and allow the Lord to live through us, the more He can teach us and use us out there in the world. Well said, my friend. Well said.
