Now Is The Time For Us To Be Used

But thanks be to God, Who in Christ always leads us in triumph [as trophies of Christ’s victory] and through us spreads and makes evident the fragrance of the knowledge of God everywhere, 2 Corinthians 2:14

So many of us speak as if all of our Father’s power will only come to pass through us when Jesus returns to the earth. But His Word  clearly tells us that He has complete power within our lives right now. Our Father does not have to wait until Jesus returns to the earth to protect us, to glorify us, and to live through us, John 17:20-22. If He did what type of God would He be? The power of the Blood of Jesus has enabled our Father to be all that He is within us right now. Our Father does not have to wait to give us an abundant life, He has given it to us right now, John 10:10! Now is the accepted time and today is the day of our salvation, 2 Corinthians 6:2! We need to continually hear this truth, because the Truth will set us free, John 8:32!

I bear them witness that they have a [certain] zeal and enthusiasm for God, but it is not enlightened and according to [correct and vital] knowledge. For being ignorant of the righteousness that God ascribes [which makes one acceptable to Him in word, thought, and deed] and seeking to establish a righteousness (a means of salvation) of their own, they did not obey or submit themselves to God’s righteousness. For Christ is the end of the Law [the limit at which it ceases to be, for the Law leads up to Him Who is the fulfillment of its types, and in Him the purpose which it was designed to accomplish is fulfilled. That is, the purpose of the Law is fulfilled in Him] as the means of righteousness (right relationship to God) for everyone who trusts in and adheres to and relies on Him. Romans 10:2-4

The Truth is that all who have been empowered by the Holy Spirit to accept Jesus as Lord will be used by God mightily in this world. Our Father will show His signs through us as His Truth sets us free, Mark 16:17-18! Through these Truths that we are studying, Jesus Authors His actual faith within us, Hebrews 12:2. Now the thing that Jesus’ faith enables us to do is to go beyond just having a zeal for our Father and it allows us to not attempt to be established by our own works. Jesus Authors and Finishes His faith within us and that allows our Father to work through us; and our Father’s works are what truly establishes us!

I believe that the end times are near. I also believe that our Father is not a liar and our Father said that the church that He is sending Jesus for will be a mighty church, one that is victorious and triumphant, Ephesians 5:27. The end time Church will be a church that our Father works mightily through and I believe that He is Authoring and Finishing the faith within us, to begin to establish this church! A defeated Christian is an oxymoron and for far too long it has been thought that we could be defeated. No longer though, we shall know the Truth and the Truth shall set us free, and through the miraculous signs that our Father performs through us, the world will believe and the manifest knowledge of His Truth will be made known in every place!
