ESH-10 WE HAVE DIVINE DIRECTIONS--ARE YOU POINTING YOUR LIFE GOD'S WAY OR YOUR WAY?
As we come to the Discipline of Disciple-Making, we come to our very own personal Job Description, left by Christ as the reason He saved us and left us here to serve Him through life. A question that should frame each day of our lives is: “Am I Doing What Christ Left Me to Do?”
God has always desired to be glorified by reaching this world with His message of love, His forgiveness of sin, and His offer of reconciliation leading to eternal life. God is not willing that any should perish, so He has always desired that the world to hear His message and repent, so that they may be saved. Because:
GOD IS A SAVIOR
God had Noah preach for a hundred years calling the world to repent. God established Israel as a light to the nations, but they mostly refused, so He set them aside temporarily.
God has for the past 2,000 years worked through His Church to spread His message of love, forgiveness, repentance, and reconciliation unto life eternal. God has future plans clearly written down for Israel to again spread His message around the world as Revelation 7-14 details. But for now, we the Church are His plan.
So God has always been glorified through people who would witness and proclaim His message of salvation. At this moment, God is working His plan of redemption through us His Church. Just as in the Old Testament, God clearly laid down His plans for Israel, as Deuteronomy says: they were to cling to the Lord, love the Lord, serve the Lord, and through their love for outsiders, they were to share His love, and declare His faithfulness. As the Old Testament details, Israel sadly disregarded that calling and commission, and so God temporarily sets them aside.
Now, as the New Testament opens, God has even more clearly told us His Church what He expects from us. In fact, at the climax of Christ's earthly ministry, He gathers His Apostles, and in the power of the Resurrection, they as the leaders of the first generation of the Church were: given His Clear Commission. As we open to Matthew 28, we are opening to the amazing linkage of God the Savior’s plan, given to Israel but ignored by them; and now given to us His Church.
The magnitude of these words has never faded. These are the clearest marching orders for every believer alive today. Matthew 28:18-20 is the distillation of all that Jesus was doing in His Earthly ministry as recorded in the Gospels. All the rest of the Epistles are written as examples and explanations of the Great Commission to the Church. Revelation is the finish of the Church’s term of service, and the return of Israel to active duty. Please stand, and hear in no uncertain terms God’s plans, expectations, and desires expressed in our Commission:
Matthew 28:18-20 (NKJV) And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.

Thankyou ,so much for you teaching .(great blessing to me ) and I just want to share my testimony and experience i have with God in my every day life I believe discipleship (santifacation ) comes after the new birth(,romans 3:24 -26 )after God revealed Himself to me in the scripture,(Matthew 16:17 ,1 Corinthians 2:10 ) then God started to teach me (john 14:26 ) in the scripture (2 thessalonians 2:13 ) through my trials in my personal relationship(experience, expression ) with God kind of like king david did in the psalm in how He expressed himself in His own experience with God in His personal trials and in His relationship with people ,in the good and bad ..In my experience when I listen to Bible teaching or reading and God reveals to me(hidden manna revelation 2:17 ,John 4:32, opens the scripture ) treasure in the word ,it fills my heart with so much joy .I am in awe of Jesus, He is so amazing,it is like He knows the areas in my life that need pruning so He leads me to study the scripture in my weakness (areas not fully surrender or not trusting God in ),then almost right after my bible study with God ,then God alows a test ,trial to come in my life to see how I respond to my trials (in faith in what I just learn or in the flesh and complain ) God is so amazing how He works in my heart and in my experiences with God in my trials and how God will bring back to Rememberance the right Scriptures to back up my experience with God to make it plain to me and others . When God Speaks, it is like a flow of Words flowing from deep with in my heart (john 3:37 -39 )with out thinking, they just flow ,but also durring this flow of Words ,God backs it up by also bring back to Rememberance the correct Scripture. It is like God brings His Word, His scripture back to Rememberance speaking to me through my emotions in my experience with Him in my trials and what I learn in them and sharing that brings great pleasure in my heart in Christ through the excitement of my relationship with God .I also experience God in my emotions too ,learning not to deny my emotions, but have patience and self-control in them submitting them to God ,(praying -1 peter 5:7 ) I started to understand that in Jesus Humanity He understand my emotions(pain ,anxiety, lost of loved one ,betrayed and ,how to love my enemys ) and He wants to be with me in my emotions Helping understand in scripture why I am having them and that God gives me power to have mastery (control ) over my emotions as I submit them to God's power.I believe discipleship is to gain power over our old desires (nature ) and that God gives us new desires (nature ) to cultivate new ,skills ,talent ,gifts and grow up in them to serve ,also to lean to discern what desires come from God and which ones come from the flesh .I have learn that true faith is when Gods word becomes our (deeds - life ) actions(Like in the book of acts ,go out into all the world ) and we preach from (joy -fruit of the Spirit ,galatians 5:22-23 ,fulness ,overflow of Gods blessing in sharing our personal walk .God also used my personal relationship with my girlfriend to teach me about my personal relationship with Him and He was teaching me the importance of communication(fellowship) (devotion) towards each other ,like in my devotion towards God in my relationship with Him .I have learn that relationships take (work ) commitment, communication in order to be fruitfull.He is always there(Joshua1:9 ) ,but He leaves it up to me to stay committed ,kind of like in my relationship with my girlfriend.I was always there(committed, communication-sowing ) ,but she was always to busy for me and the pain(greaves) i felt from this relationship, God turned it around and taught me how it (greaves Him ) when I am to busy for Him .God taught me that all relationship take hard (work ,working in harmony) (Phillipines 2:12) If I don't seek the kingdom of God everyday and put God first ,then my relationship with God grows cold(weak and idoltry creeps in and even minstry can become and idol if we not careful )and I lost my first love (revelation 2:4) because I let distraction, idols hinder my personal growth in my relationship with God ,same thing in my relationship with my girlfriend, it takes devotion and work from both of us in order to be fruitful and have strong foundation ❤️ ,but I also believe if we both keep God first in our personal relationship ,God will hold it together ❤️(romans 8:35)
This is it ! Father came to me again and said "I gave you the key"!?!?....meaning i messed up. I posted these dream-visions earlier, but my conjectures were off, so here they are again, corrected ! 2 Dream/visions that has to be seen together....Waiting has been the theme throughout my dream-visions, as in this vision too : In my prayer time (July!) I suddenly saw myself, sitting right behind our Father YHWH, on the pavement, used for lining up cars by the ferry. There was a huge orange ship lying next to us, so huge i could only see part of the side of it and our Father and i sat on the ground lined up like cars...He (being no.1 in line!) sat between my legs and there were no other people around, just the two of us, and then a person in/on the side of the ship, close to us, in a kind of hollowed out space, were you would maybe manage the ropes or have a lookout to dock, and our Father was talking to him about a football game and then He said, that He(Father!) "thought" the score would be 4-3 (7!) and asked me without turning around (I never saw his face, He was sitting in front of me, with big wooly hair and i just knew it was my "Pappa" !) what i thought and i said 3-2 (5!). Strong's 7= perfect (timing!) 7 Churches 4= "Dalet" (door) first fruit ~ Jesus Christ ! 5= Grace/Abba 23= beginning (7 can also refer to destruction, which will ensue at Great Tribulation start!) 32= finish (23 & 32 ~ The Beginning of the End !) 33 = church ) 7+5= 12 tribes of Israel/ 144.000 + 12= spiritual government/completion ! 12~21 (to exult, rejoice exceedingly, be exceeding glad and 21 biblical in Hebrew also means "The Appointed time".....how about that !?!? So Dec. just before X-mass (X marks the spot, Great Tribulation start ! ) So 12-21-2021 ! Are you ready !?!? 2'nd dream-vision, a confirmation of 1'st, also during a prayer-time, a few of months ago... As I walked on a street and saw a post-office about to open on my right and finishing touches were being made, to get it ready and a sign said an event, a skydive, would accompany the opening at 20:10, looked then to my left and another unspecified shop were to open "1 hour earlier" was an audible voice saying, at 19:10 ! (So, as a side note, 9/11 was the 20'th anniversary event in NY twin-tower bombing! And an earthquake swarm 9/11 leading to la Palma volcano eruption start 10 days later on 9/19/21... and incidentally, this gave us a 100 day warning until 20'th December !!!! So 19:10 ~ 19'th-20'th October and 1 hour/60 minutes/days later lands us again, just before X-mass, on the 19'th-20'th Dec. ! A Christ-mass gift, both for the Saints and the wicked....Hallelujah ! 20 in Strong's concordance means "Exultation" ~ "Extreme Joy"! 10 indicates finish and I had a later confirming answer, to my pertinent question to Father, about the exact year and saw in another vision 3 numbers....7-7-21 !!!! Another dream-vision confirmation of the previous two, at prayer-time : Im at a feast-table, small group (boss and employees!) and the host/boss gives me money to pay for food 1000 and for liqueur(spirit!) 800 and Strong's 18~ agathós - inherently (intrinsically) good; as to the believer, 18 (agathós) describes what originates from God and is empowered by Him in their life, through faith. The most plausible interpretation might then be, that Rapture will take place the 21'th(1'st vision!) and likewise (2'nd vision) with its skydive event at 20:10, at the post-office opening also says 21'st December +- a geographical day !!!! Anywho, see you all in the clouds, so very very soon and if not now, then in the immediate future ( A circumcision of the heart period of 8 days could possibly be added) ! Praise be to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, King of kings !!!! Heavenly Holy Father YHWH, Thine will be done, now and forever !
This means i suck , but it helps me get better , knowing helps.
I don’t believe there are no comments after a half hour. KZread is showing that I am the only commentor in this thread
He wrong wrong wrong....read Mat 28 in KJV ....it is not possible for us to do that only Jesus can make someone a disciple....we can teach and and guide but in the end being a disciple is between you and Jesus alone....Jesus makes disciples not us....
