MATURITY: STRIPPING THE LAYERS OF FLESH


MATURITY: STRIPPING THE LAYERS OF FLESH
As the days and years have passed, I have been stripping away the layers of flesh from My beloved sons. No more arm of the flesh, says the Lord. As you yield your own strength, I will replace it with My own. It is not through your physical or emotional force, or through any other resource that I will build My kingdom. It is not your wealth, not your virtue or valor or strength; it is not your ability, fruits or substance. The fullness of Myself within My beloved sons will only come through My Spirit. And I AM teaching them this truth, day by day and year by year. Soon, very soon, I will arise in My Spirit and manifest My fullness within them, within these yielded sacrifices who have spent all for the pearl of great price.

Zech 4:6-7 NKJV
So he answered and said to me: “This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ Says the Lord of hosts. Who are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain! And he shall bring forth the capstone With shouts of “Grace, grace to it!”
