We must not set our hand to bring about our own justice. God will stop us when we are going down the road of bitterness and unforgiveness. When He leads us in the direction to love our enemies, He will provide what we need to do it. God will simply put His hand of supernatural mercy in our hand and He will give us the power and love to wash the feet of our enemies. The Lord will fight our battles and bring about justice for us, but will He find a willing heart to be merciful to our betrayers?

So many Christians don’t know the mind of Christ because they are not willing to live a selfless life. A person who has the mind of Christ makes himself of no reputation and is a servant. When we delight to do God's will and we are willing to be poured out for the betterment of others God's thoughts will be revealed to us through the Holy Spirit.

What is it that causes so many young people to leave the house of God today? It is the older brother syndrome, when service in the house of God becomes hard labor from an angry joyless heart. It is the Father that meets His children with love and mercy. God almighty will bring His sons and daughter back home and we need to be prepared to celebrate their home coming.

There are demonic voices and powers of darkness that attempt to turn us away from the power we have in Christ. These voices will say you can't go any farther with God. It is the LORD who sets the boundaries in the Earth and the truth is that it is the devil who could only go as far as the bloodline of Jesus Christ. It is time to rise up in faith and tell whatever voice is telling us we can't, that God can! God desires to stretch forth His hand and heal us so we can be agents of healing to the unsaved.

Brokenness is trading in something old and receiving something new. When we allow God to break us our lives become a demonstration of His heart. We are to reflect a new value system which is the giving of ourselves in the same way that Christ gave for us. The central core of Christ is that He came to the world not to do His own will but to do the will of the Father. The will of the Father is that none would perish. The cry of your heart in these last days should be LORD BREAK ME!

Are you seeking the life and the blessing of God? The blessing is not something to be consumed among ourselves. Our life is to be an extension of the love and mercy of God and to give of ourselves unselfishly. When we choose to go this way with God we will be lead on a journey into hard places. In these hard places God will visit us. We will find wisdom and compassion for every dreadful place God allows us to go through. Heaven will open to the person who is willing to be poured out for the good and betterment of others.

God says if you don’t exalt Him, He will exalt Himself. If we judge ourselves by measuring ourselves by the standard of Christ and aligning our heart with the Word of God we will not be judged. God in His mercy will take us by the hand and lead us outside of the mindset of selfishness and self consumption. God is calling us to escape to the mountain of Calvary where self dies, and we move out of the realm of "self" and a "me first" mindset to the giving of ourselves for the Glory of God. God desires to baptize us with His compassion to put others first.

When a society begins to turn away from God they will begin to fashion Him into an image of gold for personal gain. Their motives are to get God to follow them as opposed to them following God. When we behold the true image of Jesus we say yes to a selfless Christ focused life and the out flow of our lives begins to bring God to reputation. God comes to reputation through a selfless life of giving for the betterment of others. Whose Image will you follow? We must step into the gate and declare who is on the Lord's side!

The voice of the Lord is coming to all the Jehosephats of this generation asking, "What are you doing helping those who exploit the poor, the widows and the fatherless?" God is beseeching them to ask Him for an eye salve anointing that they may see again and to ask for a purity of heart to look away from self and come back to the simplicity that is in Christ. False prophets are resisting Christ Himself for power, money and fame. Biblical prosperity is not given to bigger cars and houses.

When we violate the laws of God sin will become a weight so heavy that we will find ourselves stuck on the ground. There is something in the heart of God that yearns for you. God will begin to stretch forth His hand and lift us out of impossible places. He doesn't sit in Heaven with His arms crossed despising your struggle. He deeply desires you to allow Him to take you by the hand and lift you into His awesome love and power.
