Significantly Assigned
“The things I (God) have told you to do – things you have never been able to accomplish in the physical, intellectual, and spiritual – you will be able to do them… through the avenue and ability of My Spirit.”
For that reason, the Helper, (the Holy Spirit) was sent: To enable you to fulfill your purpose here.
John 16:7 "Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you. (NKJ)
It is very important for you to understand this, so read carefully: The same Spirit that was in Jesus, which made Him able to accomplish His mission … the same Spirit was sent to help you fulfill your mission here.
Not born without significance…
Every soul that is born into the world is given a body, and is set here with an endowed mission. His existence here is NEVER without a divine purpose/ appointment. There is no such thing as a 2’nd thought child. Their souls were sent forth from God to this earth whether their parents, families, or teachers thought they were worth anything or not. Your “place” here is never without significance. I don’t care where your “beginning” place in this world was, or where you are now. “Cut the led loose; you’ll drown if you don’t!” Your future is not based on your present state or what is behind you. It is based on your connection with the Helper (the Holy Spirit of God!) and your obedience to what He instructs.
You cannot say your part is not as important as a preacher like “Billy Graham” or as a singer, or other famous person. Just because the lungs are not highly visible, does not mean they play any less a part than your more visible eyes!
Your part here may “seem” much smaller in the world’s eyes, less glorious, and far less visible. The heart in comparison to the entire body is not so big … But, even if the “smallest” member of the heart fails to fulfill his part, the rest of Christ’s body and the world suffer. Do you realize it takes more than the hand to snatch the child from the fire? The shoulder, elbow bones, the joints and tendons, the nerves down to the very finger tip all had a vital part in union. If just one nerve were pinched, the whole arm would be restricted. And yet, if the hero is praised, the whole body receives the same reward, whether it were a foot bone or a spinal cord. The mission was accomplished because each played their part. The child was saved alive.
Romans 12:4 “For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function…” (NKJ)
I Corinthians 12:27 “Now you (by name) are the body of Christ, and members individually.”
Empowered from the Spirit within
“Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of (the Holy Spirit) which is in you through the laying on of my hands. For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but (the Helper, the Holy Spirit) of power and of love and of a sound mind.” - 2 Timothy 1:6-7 (NKJ)
Stir up the Holy Spirit, the divine Help in you. You have a very important assignment to fulfill while you are here; and you can’t go into the world alone…
Acts 1:4-5,8
4 And being assembled together with them, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the Promise of the Father, "which," He said, "you have heard from Me;
5 "for John truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now."
8 "But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you…" (NKJ)
The Holy Spirit will tell you things your head doesn’t know about the path ahead of you, including the pitfalls and cliffs. He will give you (His body) wisdom and a supernatural ability to do things you are not able to do financially, physically, educationally, or otherwise…
Before God, my heart yearns to see each member of the body rise up to take his and her places… These are the last days when the glory of God will be poured out. Do not be afraid to obey… to finally take your place no matter what they say, or what your circumstance and emotions whisper. Who is God to you? Or in other words, who the head in your life that dictates your actions?
They will always have something to say… but you have only one life to live…You have been brought into the kingdom for such a time as this. The Head, of this body will provide.
Ephesians 5:29-30
For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church. For you are members of His body, of His flesh and of His bones.
John 16:13
"However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come. (NKJ)
Isaiah 30:19,21
... He will be very gracious to you at the sound of your cry; when He hears it, He will answer you…Your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, "This is the way, walk in it," whenever you turn to the right hand or whenever you turn to the left. (NKJ)
John 10:27
"My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.” (NKJ)
