“The explosion at the grave did much more than bring the most important person Who ever lived back to life. It modified the creation model forever, furthering My plan and providing a pathway for mankind to interact with Me eternally through the blood of Jesus. It established new boundaries for My interaction with you for this season of your existence. It set in motion a new eternity and at the same time began the countdown to the end of life as you know it.

“Soon I will usher in a new heaven and a new earth. It will complete the era in which you live and begin another phase of the expression of Who I am. How involved do you want to be in My future plans? Although access to Me is provided for you through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, your commitment level to Him in this season shows Me much. It shows your sincerity and devotion to Me and whatever I have in mind for the future.

“Understand that I am, at this moment in time, building a generation to interact with Me for eternity. Your life commitment in Jesus is being scrutinized and recorded. How you choose to implement the new life I have given you, and how you take advantage of the unlimited access that you have to Me, greatly impacts how I will use you in My eternal future.”

Eph. 4:12-13 AMP

12) His intention was the perfecting and the full equipping of the saints (His consecrated people), [that they should do] the work of ministering toward building up Christ’s body (the church),

13 [That it might develop] until we all attain oneness in the faith and in the comprehension of the [full and accurate] knowledge of the Son of God, that [we might arrive] at really mature manhood (the completeness of personality which is nothing less than the standard height of Christ’s own perfection), the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ and the completeness found in Him.

Phil. 3:10-11 AMP

10) [For my determined purpose is] that I may know Him [that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him, perceiving and recognizing and understanding the wonders of His Person more strongly and more clearly], and that I may in that same way come to know the power outflowing from His resurrection [which it exerts over believers], and that I may so share His sufferings as to be continually transformed [in spirit into His likeness even] to His death, [in the hope]

11) That if possible I may attain to the [spiritual and moral] resurrection [that lifts me] out from among the dead [even while in the body].

Rev. 2:26 NIV

“To him who overcomes and does my will to the end, I will give authority over the nations.”

Most of us are so short-sighted that we apply what we have been given through Jesus only to our waking moments on this earth. God always interacts from an eternal perspective. We act and react from our limited perspective of what is best for us this very moment.

Until we determine in our hearts to get in line with God’s heart for His reasons, we are missing out on more than we could ever imagine. We are also failing to realize how important our days are. We may think that we are benefiting from consuming all that the Lord has provided on ourselves. We fail to realize the eternal impact of our selfishness.

 Open my eyes, Lord,

“It’s time to get back to the basics of My Word. It’s time to set aside the foolish teachings of men and return to My kind of life for you. That is one of absolute obedience and submission to My will. Many of you have found comfortable teachings about the use of your time, money, resources, and giftings that keep you from living the submissive, crucified life. Because you have chosen the easy, self-serving road, I am unable to share the deeper things of My heart with you. I know that you will consume them upon yourself in the same way that you have consumed My other resources. In short, I can’t trust you with My heart for this season.

“If you, however, repent of your selfish ways, I will once again trust you with My Word. Repent now. I desire to share fresh manna with you, manna to give to those who are hungry for real food. If you continue on your selected path and do not repent, you will be one of the drooling masses, who are consumed with the fear of losing those things they are holding close when difficult times unfold. I desire for you to be able to feed others; you, however, will require food from those who have chosen My way, all because you would not hear Me and turn from your selfish ways.”

Joshua 7:13 AMP

Up, sanctify (set apart for a holy purpose) the people, and say, Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow; for thus says the Lord, the God of Israel; There are accursed things in the midst of you, O Israel. You can not stand before your enemies until you take away from among you the things devoted [to destruction].

Mark 4:24 AMP

And He said to them, Be careful what you are hearing. The measure [of thought and study] you give [to the truth you hear] will be the measure [of virtue and knowledge] that comes back to you – and more [besides] will be given to you who hear.

I am convinced that the Lord is tearing away the false teachings that have permeated the church, teachings that have hindered the work of God going forth. Because of the complacency that has set in, the general body leaves the preaching to the preachers, the evangelizing to those “called” to do so, the support limited to “tithes,” and the witnessing to those who are “better at it than we are.” Neighbors waiting for someone to share the Gospel with them go to hell, and we wonder why God never sent the right person, instead of repenting for not going ourselves.

You and I are the ones God desires to use for His work. Each of us has been given gifts and talents that are needed right in our own circles. The Lord is asking every one of us to give away what we have been given. Instead, we stand around with clenched fists, looking for others to share what they have.

Open my hands and allow me to pour out Your gifts, Lord,

“When you are in synchronization with My will, your life beats with a rhythm designed in heaven. There are no fits and stops. There are no immovable obstacles. There are no fearsome turns. Everything is in order and continues in an interactive flow as We communicate and implement, empowered by My Holy Spirit and accomplished through you. Once you fully understand that you have the same access to Me as Jesus did, you will never be out of beat again. You will be where you are supposed to be when you are supposed to be there. I will be there with you. Our friendship of interaction and implementation will be a symphony performed with precision and completed with power, accomplishing eternal works. That is how you were designed to live.”

Psalm 25:12-14 NIV

12) Who, then, is the man that fears the Lord? He will instruct him in the way chosen for him.

13) He will spend his days in prosperity, and his descendants will inherit the land.

14) The Lord confides in those who fear him; he makes his covenant known to them.

Psalm 127:1 AMP

Except the Lord builds the house, they labor in vain who build it; except the Lord keeps the city, the watchman wakes but in vain.

Because of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, it is our heritage to flow within the plans of the Lord, living and moving and having our being in Him. Because He really lives in us, it is reasonable to expect there will come a time when our old life of independence will joyously be cast aside and be replaced by a life of full submission to our Father. It is also reasonable to believe that as we move in proper choices, ones initiated and implemented by the Holy Spirit, our lives will ring with the love of the Lord, motivating and touching many through Him and glorifying God as we do. We are truly a blessed people with an astounding opportunity to have our lives really mean something.

Thank You, Lord,

Jim Corbett
