Jesus is trying to show you His priorities. The gift of salvation provides eternal life, deliverance from sin and transformation into the holiness of Jesus. This work of sanctification will continue all of your life on earth.
The most important priority is learning how to walk in oneness with Jesus.
Jesus is not looking for works, asking you to keep laws or to be involved in religion. Jesus wants you to have intimate contact with Him and build a symbiotic relationship based on faith and obedience.
Jesus desires for you to live in total surrender to Him by appropriating His words; “Not my will but Yours be done.” Jesus wants all of you.
The Christ follower needs to experience the awesome nature of God and see his power and glory. The presence of the Living Christ shows you how insignificant you are compared to Him.
Meeting the Living Christ is a terrifying experience. There is no one like Him. Jesus can shake the earth and turn the sun into darkness. Nothing is impossible for Jesus!
The reality of Jesus creates a strong desire to be in fellowship with Him at all times. He becomes your best friend and a powerful fortress of protection.
Jesus hears your every thought and knows every detail of your life from the past, present and future. How can you not be filled with awe and respect for Him?
The goal is to live in perfect union with Jesus by yielding to the authority of the Holy Spirit. Jesus isn’t looking for perfection just a willing heart to change.
Ask Jesus to reveal anything you are doing which grieves the Holy Spirit. Then ask Jesus to cover you with His blood and help you remove any sinful behavior from your life.
There can be nothing standing between you and Jesus if you want the fullness of His presence in your life!
