Don't Give Up! Be Ferocious! Friday April 10, 2015

18 I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. 19 For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed. Romans 8:18-19

There is much difficulty in the journey, in becoming whom God has predestined for you to be. The hills get steeper, the valleys become deeper and the wilderness seems wilder than it was before.  But hang on in there!  I say Don't Give Up!  It is not just you that has to become but all of creation is in the process of becoming.  Just as Jesus was the first fruit of all the brethren you are the first fruit of the transformation of the whole creation.  You must lead by example and the rest will follow.  continue to be transformed through your suffering, dying to your flesh and exposing the mystery of God even in your character.  The trees are constantly shedding, purging and being pruned by the seasons, the grass dies and comes back the stars fall from the sky when they die and yet everyday we fail to see the dying even in our selves.  But you are dying, your cells, your blood, your flesh is dying daily in the natural, and even as you continue to grow by feeding yourself spiritually in prayer and study and obeying the spirit, your flesh is dying to it's power, no longer having as much control as it use to and being more obedient to the Power of the Spirit!!!!!!!!

Don't Give Up! Be ferocious in your pursuit of the transformation, don't allow the weakness of your flesh to be an excuse of why you give in, grow weary, but be steadfast in the process of becoming that at your moment of revealing, all creation will see His glory revealed in you!!!!!!!!!!
