Jeff Reynolds One desire: June 2018

Paul focuses not on what he wants to do.But rather on who he wants to know.

"But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. 8What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ 9and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in^a Christ—the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith. 10I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death,11and so, somehow, attaining to the resurrection from the dead.

12Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it.

But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." Philippians 3:7-14

Son lit roads in the Wilderness

Its in knowing and following Jesus, or walking in the Spirit, that we find out what we are to do. The Kingdom is building and building. It grows on identity and assignment in the perfect work of Jesus on the Cross, in Resurrection and as Ascended Son of God and High Priest of heaven.

When I do the things he calls out in me by faith through grace -

I will be near him. I will find "it all" in Him.I will abide as the beginning of everything.

Doing has little value outside of knowing Jesus - John 15:5
As faith without works is dead.
Doing things without Jesus is dead.

The significance of a "well done good and faithful servant" goal, is we accomplish what God has planted in us and through us. We demonstrate the grace of God in power by faith and walk in the works prepared for us. We do his will.

Significance is not in what we can think up to make our faith significant. Rather, it is found in what God has prepared and ordered that will bless, impart, impact and release his glory in millions of people. Simple obedience is a hallmark of our faith and of Israel's walk with God. It is throughout Scripture and it is front and center with Jesus.

This is My commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you. 13“Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends. 14“You are My friends if you do what I command you. 15“No longer do I call you slaves, for the slave does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I have heard from My Father I have made known to you. 16“You did not choose Me but I chose you, and appointed you that you would go and bear fruit, and that your fruit would remain, so that whatever you ask of the Father in My name He may give to you. 17“This I command you, that you love one another.

John 15:12-17

Servants obey. Friends understand and love. Obedience is the result of both paths. But friendship with God is definitely better than errands and check lists. Step up into the deeper love and obey the Lord. Step into the greatest love and let his grace measure lead you to laying down your life.

The beauty is good works are prepared by God for us, in advance, in Christ Jesus. Eph 2:10

Walking into his good works, works planned by the Father in the fullness of Jesus, works by the power of the Holy Spirit, is the joy of walking in fellowship with the Trinity God.

Good Works, Doors and Keys

As I prepare to head off to Bali, Indonesia next week, I recall the perception of a 1000 gates of the Enemy. Everywhere I looked there were limitations to pouring fourth the Gospel of the Kingdom in power and with freedom. Even the believers were gated up and fearful of letting God reign in all his truth and love. Each Gate was intended to block, hinder, oppose the advancing Kingdom of Jesus Christ and each one appeared locked tight. As I looked at those and prayed, I sensed the Spirit remind me of key scriptures to "see" with.

Matthew 16:17-19
Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven. 18And I tell you that you are Peter,^b and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades^c will not overcome it. 19I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be^d bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be^e loosed in heaven.”

The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. 17He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. Colossians 1:15-17

The gates we are to crash? The Holy Spirit leads us to those and empowers us to crash them. The open doors and gates we are to go through? The Spirit leads those as well. Always making a way where one does not appear readily available.

Jesus' purpose is alive and prepared. Out in front of us we will find doors, open avenues to pass through with the grace we carry and the power of the Holy Spirit.

The enemy uses culture, economic realities, debased lifestyles, drugs, etc... to tie up the people God is after and blind their eyes to the Gospel(2 Corinthians 4). So what were we to do in a land of 1000 gates? A land of fear. A land where Christians were kept in their place by fearful threats if they shared the Gospel?

Side Note: I have news. Americans are equally afraid to share their faith. I've seen and experienced fear rising up whenever we call forth a powerful witness of Jesus in our country. Fear shows us we have something to lose.

The Holy Spirit had doors prepared in advance for us to walk through.
What I learned is....

There is always an open door. The Holy Spirit sends us to find these and walk right into them for the advance of the Kingdom of God.

The good fight is given to us.
It's not our possession.
Its a call.
It a measure or portion, a piece, of the abundant, boundless, victory of Jesus. Its given to us to steward and impart to the Saints and the world around us by faith.

Our grace calling, imparted in wisdom and revelation by Jesus, is a portion of the victory, booty and spoils from the battle with the enemy (Ephesians 4:8-10).

It's just a matter of time - till we see it all come to pass.

Knowing Jesus first, which is eternal life and the call of all the Saints (Matthew 6:33; John 17:3),
leads us to co-laboring with him in the grace he imparts.
Knit together we abide in Jesus, pursuing him and freely sharing his glory with the world.
We take on his courageous Generosity.
It is both the knowledge and impact of accomplishing the Father's will, and the very power to continue the ministry of freedom and redemption (Isaiah 61).

Ministry as the goal puts us way off and on the wrong path.

When I do the things he calls out in me by faith through grace -

I will be near him.

I will find everything I need in Him.

I will abide as the beginning of everything.

Abiding to the finish of his will by grace in faith.

To know Jesus Christ.

This the the journey that lasts forever.

John 17:3 To know the Father and the son he sent.

The Number one and primary engagement of the Ekklesia of Jesus is to know Jesus.

Some paths you can take once you step into the Sun!

Be sent by HIM.

These two simple foundations create a motion and reality in your walking in the Spirit that is constant and effective. The Kingdom will begin to move in and through you by faith on a daily basis. You will not only do great things in the power of the Spirit but you will be full of the great love of God that is steadfast and immovable.

Get these two foundations in prayer!

How's your 24?
How's your prayer walk?
Sowing into prayer is the greatest avenue for consistent joy in Jesus than any other thing out there.

Take a new step into the depths and riches of knowing Jesus.  Pray.

Start today.  5 mins listening to or reading the Scripture and Psalm 27:14 wait for the Lord.
Grab some time and steal away with Jesus.
He is remarkable to be around.
You will tap into the grace of God.
The Father sent Jesus to restore us to him and he is longing to know us in Christ. (John 17:3)
