Our corporate destiny and ordination in Christ
The journey of a believer starts with the conviction of the Holy Spirit whilst he’s an unbeliever.
John 16:13 KJV
- Rightousness
- Judgment of sin
Romans 10:8-10 KJV
The initial salvation experience is only an entrance into the kingdom experience and not the totality of the believer’s experience.
1. When you come into Christ through the new birth experience, declaring the Lordship of Jesus over your life, you are given the unique privilege of partaking in this corporate destiny of all believers
- A destiny of glory
- A destiny of a distinctive definition (your life becomes a manifestation of the glory of God)
Your corporate mandate is that eventually, your life becomes in experience a manifestation of the glory of God.
Our Ordination in Christ (Our corporate destiny):
- 1 Peter 2:9 KJV
- Matthew 5:13-16 KJV
- Deuteronomy 28:13 KJV
- Ephesians 2:10 KJV
- Hebrews 10:7 KJV
Don’t mind your mind, believe the word. Allow it to catch up later on while you are driving your destiny with your spirit.
2 Corinthians 4:17-18 KJV, Psalm 107:2 KJV
2. The tragic reality for many believers is that their Christian experience is largely a burden, waiting for heaven as a consolation.
Ecclesiastes 10:7 KJV, Psalm 49:20 KJV, Galatians 4:1 KJV
Regardless what your experiences have been, it’s important for you to hold this vision, my life as far as God’s mind is concerned, I have been ordained. There is an ordination upon me.
What Does It Mean To Ordain?
- To legitimize an operation, so that you are not seen as an illegal person
- I’ve been ordained to succeed
- I’ve been ordained to advance
- I’ve been ordained to accelerate
- I’ve been ordained to prosper
What makes your desire carnal or otherwise is the degree to which it serves the purpose of the kingdom.
The believer is bound by the code of revealing Jesus
John 17:1 KJV
Before God grants you access to his blessings, he would probe the state of your heart.
The fastest way to receive from God is to present your cause and to bring forth your strong reason by letting him see how his name is lifted through your rising.
A powerful secret to receiving from God:
- Learn to connect your desires to his program
- Learn to connect your desires to his will
3. Manifesting the glory of God in all ramifications is beyond a desire. It is a call. It is a mandate.
God’s glory is at risk if I don’t prosper
God’s glory is at risk if I don’t make progress, if I don’t advance.
You must see the desire to accelerate, to prosper, to rise to the zenith of your career. See it beyond a desire, it is a mandate.
You are a lens through which nations will learn God, and you want to present God properly, so that they do not have a corrupted idea of God as taught by your life.
- I have a mandate to thrive
- I have a mandate to last
- I have a mandate to be exceptional
- I have a mandate to great
- I have a mandate to anointed
- I have a mandate to sound in my mind for the sake of his glory
Your eternal life, glorifying God through every aspect of your life, must be seen as a mandate beyond a desire
Isaiah 43:5-7 KJV, Psalm 86:12 KJV
Why The Limitation?
- God is a God of patterns (Leviticus 9:6 KJV)
– The glory of God is forun by keeping and adhering to certain patterns.
– The glory of God is a revealer of the patterns that have been kept or the patterns that have been ignored.
– Every dimension of glory has a culture, a requirement. You must work in keeping with the pattern connected to it.
– When you desire to see the glory revealed, God does not give you the glory, he teaches you the patterns
– The secret to the glory is mastery of the patterns. 2 Timothy 2:5 KJV
Pattern plus prophecy is what births the glory
You are not hoping you are a winner, you know you are a winner
The Power of Patterns:
Exodus 25:9 KJV, Exodus 25:40 KJV, Exodus 40:16 KJV, Exodus 40:33-35 KJV
- There are things you must know, there are ordinances you must keep to shine and to manifest the glory of God.
- The outcome we pray for, we fast for; they are patterns dependent. The greater prayer therefore, is open my eyes that I may see.
- The greatest way to rise is to cry, to pray, to fast for light.
John 1:5 KJV, Psalm 82:5-7 KJV, Hosea 4:6 KJV, Ephesians 4:18 KJV, Colossians 1:9 KJV, Jeremiah 3:15 KJV
