Walking in Precise Purpose- “Heaven is not enough”

It is very important for us to know our
purpose in life. It is important because
the ones that are reading this letter hold
the position or the potential to influence
others. There are some in the body of Christ
that are longing for a fresh word from the Lord.
They are frustrated because they are in a
dry place in their life.
They don’t really feel fulfilled.

They don’t know what their purpose is.
Things don’t seem to be working out for
them quite like they expected them to.

Many of you are bogged down with the cares
of this world that are immobilizing you and
causing you to operate from the position of
your weakness rather than your strength
because when you don’t know your purpose,
souls are in placed in jeopardy. As Zion,
God has committed into our hands a certain level
of responsibility to build his kingdom.
We are the sub-contractors that he uses to
accomplish certain tasks in the Kingdom on
earth as it is in heaven.

God has commissioned us to use our hands
to prime the pump that will release the water
(spirit) to quench the thirst of a dry, barren,
people.

In order to receive the Specific, Profound,
purpose that God has for you, you must:

1) Count up the Cost- Understand that the
rewards that God has for you will no doubt
cost you. It is not free Saints.
A lot of us have this “give me” attitude
where by we want God to drop everything in
our lap. That is not the Kingdom.
You see salvation is free but it is not the
“only” reason why Jesus came. If that was the
only reason then Jesus could
have made a b line from the cradle to the cross.
He saved us because there is an expectation
and a plan that he has for us in this present
life for him that ties into Eternity.

2) Give an account- Please know that you
have to give an account for not what you did
(past tense) in this life because
the blood of Jesus has already taken care of
that but rather “What You were Called to Do in this Life”.

Here is some Bible: AMP 2 Corinthians 5:10
For we must all appear and be revealed as we
are before the judgment seat of Christ, so that
each one may receive [his pay] according to
what he has done in the body, whether good or
evil [considering [c]what his purpose and
motive have been, and what he has[d]achieved,
been busy with, and given himself and his
attention to accomplishing].

Now this passage of scripture is talking
about the Eternal reward factor,determining,
what we did according to the Specific purpose
that God has given us on earth that will
Ultimately determine our position in heaven.

Let me close this out and we will pick
this back up in Part 2.

What are you giving your attention to accomplishing?
Are you choosing your own purpose or
are you walking into the purpose God has for you?
Did you witness to that person that God told
to you to witness to? Did you encourage and
build up that person that you knew you were
supposed to encourage? If not, who knows the
number of souls that were lost all because
we did not walk in obedience. Wouldn’t it be
something to have someone of high rank “spiritually”
on earth to miss out on their just reward in
heaven all because they did not walk into their
purpose of what God had precisely called them to do?

With God’s leading and our willingness
to position ourselves to Hear from Him.
We can finish our own individual race.
We can finish our course. We have an opportunity
to receive our just rewards in heaven.
Remember: Without obedience there would
be no incentives.

Jesus Always and Forever
