Fulfilling Your Destiny
To achieve the will and purpose of God on this earth we must
know what God is doing and what part we are to play in accomplishing that
purpose. So many Christians have not taken the time to discover the issues that
Father is interested in, and what part we are to play in bringing it to pass.
The greatest need in this world today is for
the Christ to be birthed in a people enabling them to fulfil the will and
purpose of God. The need is not for more Bible Schools or Theological Colleges,
nor is it the need for more Bible teaching, but it is for the birthing of the
Christ IN A PEOPLE. The moment came in Israel's history when Rome was in
possession of their land and they were paying tribute to Cesar. God's people
were hurting under the Roman rod of King Herod who served Rome without thought
for the people. Unknown to the people a messenger appeared to a woman whose
name was Mary delivering to her an amazing message. She was a virgin who was
espoused to a man named Joseph. She was told that she would become pregnant and
bear a child and his name would be JESUS. But this was not just a simple
pregnancy for no human sperm would be involved. Mary's response to the
messenger was one of fear, knowing that her pregnancy would cancel the
arrangements for her marriage. In fact it would appear to everyone that she had
committed fornication and would suffer the consequences of the Law in Israel.
Beloved
we are living in a time when the same situation applies, for there are forces
functioning on the earth today that are destined to destroy people financially,
and making it difficult to get medical attention, with crime increasing and
generally causing unrest among the people. Our country is not being overrun by
another nation but is being exposed to forces in every walk of life that bring
fear and distrust even of Governments. No statesman can resolve the issues
facing the world today and no Government has the answers either. New words are
being used to describe our dilemma, like Recession and Melt-down, Financial
Crash of Banks and Lending Institutions and the Stock Exchange. Even Christians
are being caught up in this "Crash," but how few even consider that
there is a spiritual answer for the world. Two thousand years ago a child was
born in Bethlehem who was designated as a KING who was over every other King or
authority on the earth.
In
this one King lies the hope and the desire of the nations. There is only one
problem and that is to find a virgin who will birth the Christ for this generation.
Most Christians are not even looking for a virgin today for they have followed
the fables of religious men who teach the people that there is no need for a
virgin today. They teach that Jesus Christ is up in the sky somewhere and that
his plan is to return one day and call up the Christians who have followed
their teachings, into the clouds in the sky and take them away to a place
called heaven. The rest of the story is that when all the Christians have gone
all hell will break loose on the earth creating the great tribulation in which
the wicked will be punished. So there is no need for a virgin today to bring
forth the Christ on the earth today according to this teaching.
It
is now time for us to wake up and discover why we are in this world at this
time in history and what part the Lord wants us to play in bringing His will to
pass in our generation. Instead of focusing our attention on the things the
world is interested in, let's focus our attention on the Kingdom of God.
