YOUR GREATEST LIFE IS AHEAD!
I remember witnessing a powerful site while being at a track meet during the time when my daughter’s Destiny and Hosanna were in track. I watched as this Hispanic young man competed in the mile race. I don’t know if I have ever seen anyone give it all like he did. He collapsed at the end, having won the race. It was the sort of effort that one rarely gets to witness in real life. I don’t know if you have ever heard the term, “He left it all on the field.” Using this secular term... God left it ALL on the field in his sacrifice for us! There is nothing that he withheld when it came to buying us back – No cost was spared!The beauty of his passionate love for us was displayed in the unequivocal cost of his only son! It is the revelation of this fact that gives us the power to also give our all to him! Look at what Jesus said regarding this.
Matthew 16:24-26 Then Jesus said to his disciples, "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will find it. What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?
The most beautiful and exciting thing you will ever do in your life is to give your all for God and his purpose – to believe him completely, without reservation! Unreserved abandonment to God opens the door for the power of God to be revealed in your life. Therefore, moving in the power of God is preceded by living in the life God has offered to you. There is nothing more exciting or more wonderful that you will ever do than losing your life to gain God’s life! Real and wonderful Christianity is not living for God but rather God living through you. Listen to what Jesus said...
Jn 14:10 Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you are not just my own. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work.
Your most wonderful life will be found when God is living his life and doing his purposes through you! Will you trust God today? This spectacular life is available for those who trust God! Your greatest days are ahead of you not behind you! Will you trust him? If you will, you can be sure…
