LEARNING DEATH TO SELF
Beloved one, you have come a long way. As Your Doctor, I have been with you every step as you have trusted Me to cut out those places in your soul that were not My will. I have taken you through death to self, as you have laid down your own agenda to embrace My will. I know it has not been an easy cup to swallow. I have lived every moment of pain with you and prayed you through each day.
I know it has been very painful and you feel as though you have no more tears left. This is a temporary Novocain dear one, to hold you till your final surgery. My weeping willow, many are called but only few are chosen. When you graduate from the surgeries of death to self, you will have earned the right of passage. To be elected is to be selected and chosen. When your “I” dies, you will have found your identity in Me. All that is left will be an earnest passion to be so One with Me that your own identity disappears.
Dear one, I will breathe upon your dead places with My power. My promise is that what you died to, brings resurrection power multiplied filled with joy and zeal.
John 12:24-26 NKJV
Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain . 25 He who loves his life will lose it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. 26 If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also. If anyone serves Me, him My Father will honor.
1 Peter 1:2 NKJV
Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, for obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ.
Matt 20:16 NKJV
So the last will be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few chosen.
Rev 17:14 NKJV
These will make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for He is Lord of lords and King of kings; and those who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful.
