Psalm 73:25 - "Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you." Because God alone is God, and the only one who is truly adorable, He has the right to claim us wholly for Himself. Without an appropriate surrender our part, He cannot manifest His power. As fully as God gives Himself to us, so fully does He desire that we give ourselves to Him. Ask Him for an understanding of His purpose for your life -- entirely committed to God to advance His everlasting Kingdom in the earth and bring forth the Great Commission! How wonderful the grace that calls us to it! How blessed the separation from men, the self-pleasing agendas, and all that might draw us away from God. Totally dedicated to God and dead to the world and all that it offers! How sweet the discovery and of all that it means, and all that God gives us with it! Ecclesiastes 6:12 - "For who knows what is good for a man during his lifetime, during the few years of his futile life? He will spend them like a shadow. For who can tell a man what will be after him under the sun?" It is better to have never been born than to live and not fulfill the purpose for which you were given life. This truth is echoed in this scripture. In essence, when you become aware of the calling of God in Christ that resides within you, you are obligated to release that wealth to the world around you. What lies behind you is history and what lies before you is the future, but these are both tiny matters compared to what lies within you. Are you living a stillbirth life? Are you aborting your entire purpose for living? Move beyond the familiar patterns and experiences of your life to the dreams and plans, and imaginations that wait within you to fulfill eternity.

Genesis 18:1,2 - "One day Abraham was sitting at the entrance to his tent during the hottest part of the day. 2 He looked up and noticed three men standing nearby. When he saw them, he ran to meet them and welcomed them, bowing low to the ground." In Genesis 18 Abraham was sitting in front of his tent during the heat of the day. All of a sudden he looked up and saw three men standing in front of him. What Abraham did next catalyzed the destiny for himself and Sarah: He stood up and he ran to meet them. The arrival of these men wasn't convenient and it wasn't expected. At first, he didn't even realize that it was the Lord! Abraham INTERRUPTED what he was doing in order to host the men. His being willing to INTERRUPT his plans resulted in the fulfillment of God's promise for the son that they had been waiting on for more than 20 years (Genesis 18:10)! Those who are prepared to INTERRUPT and adjust their own plans and schedules as God intervenes will see new doors for personal breakthrough and Kingdom advancement open.

"You greatly rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory…" (1 Peter 1:8). "I delight to do Your will, O my God" (Psalm 40:8). In our hearts there is exceeding glory. When you lose your heart and Another takes your heart, and you lose your desires and He takes the desires, then you live in that sunshine of bliss that no mortal can ever touch. Divine immortality swallows up all natural mortality. It is exquisite to walk in the Spirit -- rejoice inwardly, praise God reverently, and know that you are an increasing force of immortality advancing His Kingdom. 2 Timothy 1:11,12 - "And God chose me to be a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles. For this reason I also suffer these things…" The reason Paul was never defeated by satan's attacks is that he had made a decision. He decided he would not stop or give up until he had apprehended that for which Christ Jesus had apprehended him (Philippians 3:12). Likewise the only way you'll be able to resist the devil's attacks and successfully achieve your calling in Christ is by determining never to stop until you have accomplished your divine assignment. Jesus taught that those who "endure to the end" are the ones who will receive the prize (Matthew 24:13). For power to be effective, it must work in a committed person. If you make the decision to stay in faith and "face-off" with the power of God at your side, you can do exactly what God called you to do.

Job 33:4, "The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty has given me life." When God breathes in us and upon us, we are receiving His inspiration. Our goal in worship is not just to sing a song to God but to get to such a place of intimate connection that inspiration takes place where we receive a deposit from Heaven. The result of being inspired by God brings us into alignment with His thoughts, His heart and brings a flow of true worship in our lives. He is looking for those who want to be "one" with Him in worship. God wants to enjoin Himself with us in such a way that Heaven on earth will be manifested. The voice of God being released through us in worship causes the angels of God to be activated, ushering a greater realm of His glory in our midst. Prophetic worship is not only something that flows from our intimacy with the Lord, but also aids our lives and Christ calling through activating angels of breakthrough – it will be revolutionary for us giving us victory from glory to glory. Where are you needing breakthrough? Spend time in that prophetic expression of worship both personally and holding all that concerns you before Him. 1 Corinthians 1:9, "God is faithful, and by Him you were called to the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord."

2 Corinthians 3:8 - "How will the ministry of the Spirit not be more glorious?" We live, we move, we reign over all things. "You greatly rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory…" (1 Peter 1:8). "I delight to do Your will, O my God" (Psalm 40:8). In our hearts there is exceeding glory. When you lose your heart and Another takes your heart, and you lose your desires and He takes the desires, then you live in that sunshine of bliss that no mortal can ever touch. Divine immortality swallows up all natural mortality. It is exquisite to walk in the Spirit -- rejoice inwardly, praise God reverently, and know that you are an increasing force of immortality advancing His Kingdom. 2 Timothy 1:11,12 - "And God chose me to be a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.

Gideon was addressed as "mighty man of valor." Mary as "highly favored one." It is not a coincidence that God called them by such terms not after they completed their purpose, but before. This is how they were addressed from the outset then God called them to step into the appointed time of their destiny. You have a Messenger of Courage within you, a Helper, the Spirit of Truth, and He is calling to you like He did Gideon and Mary, already addressing you as beloved and a victor, not just hopeful of such. He wants to visit you, meet you, and call to the courage He already sees within you. He wants you to see yourself as He does -- carrying out your Christ calling) -- and He is imparting to you the courage necessary to leap out and seize the moment that is only just beyond your reach. He is calling you "Mighty" or "Favored" to remind you of your Christ identity. Now that you know who you are, you know what to do next. 1 John 2:20 - "But you have been anointed by the Holy One, and you all have knowledge." Acts 26:24-25 - "Now as he thus made his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, 'Paul, you are beside yourself! Much learning is driving you mad!' But he (Paul) said, "I am not mad, most noble Festus, but speak the words of truth and reason." The words "beside yourself" mean to rave as a maniac, and it's the idea of incessant craving. Festus accused Paul of being crazy. Modern culture is not drawn to Christianity because the little they are exposed to is not extreme enough for them. What the world really wants to see is a Christian (YOU) who is totally enthralled with who Jesus is. Your spiritual learning shouldn't be just systematic theology books, but a distinguishable, crazy love that goes public.

We Believers have generally been too focused on and conscious of the imperfections of our lives. Repenting from our sins head-on is important and vital, but there is a whole other glorious side to our relationship with God that goes unrecognized by many. WE ARE CO-HEIRS CONFESSING CHRIST When we catch a glimpse of this new identity we have in Jesus Christ, we see sin to be the boring, useless, and stupid thing it really is and we turn more easily away from it. This other side has to do with the rich inheritance that we share in with Jesus Christ as co-heirs (see Romans 8:17; Ephesians 1:7, 11). We need to spend much more time confessing, not our sins, but who we are in Christ according to the teachings of the apostles. "Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful" (Hebrews 10:23). We must not allow our past but rather our new Christ identity and our DESTINY to define us! We are sons and daughters of a great King and His Blood is flowing in our veins. Unless we enter into our eternal identities, we will not become instruments for noble purposes. We will not enter into a holiness from Heaven. We will not be useful to God. WE ARE COMPLETE IN HIM Our outlook on life is changed as we contemplate: "And you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power." (Colossians 2:10) "You are complete," which means we lack nothing at all, in our oneness in Him (John 17:21). Abiding in Christ and allowing Him to flow freely out of us enables us to function with the greatest degree of success, thus making us available to implement our Christ calling, bearing fruit that remains for God's Kingdom. Luke 6:7-8 "And the scribes and Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal on the sabbath day; that they might find an accusation against him. 8But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man which had the withered hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth." Jesus says “rise up”. Rise up is the root word for RESURRECTION. We need to get up higher than our current perception. We need to come to a place where we are looking at things from a more inspired viewpoint. Resurrection is a life on a brand new dimension. It does not matter what my current reality is. It simply becomes the occasion for God’s power to be manifested in the midst of impossibility. Jesus tells me to rise up! We hear His voice and the promises He gives us in the scriptures. Ephesians 5:14-17 -- "Wake up, sleeper, and rise from the dead! And Christ will shine on you. So pay close attention to how you live. Don't live like ignorant men, but like wise men. Make the most of the time….try to find out what the Lord wants you to do." Our heavenly Father will respond and answer us as we seek to move from hopelessness to hope. We don't deny the problems of our past, but we simply come to see how good and great He is and how great is our salvation! New avenues of intimacy with the Trinity will open to us as we access the ascended life in Christ, abandoning the self-life in favor of self sacrifice for discipling the spiritual lives of others. A BRAND NEW THING Isaiah 43:19 - "Nothing compares to what I'm going to do with you says the Lord! Behold, I am going to do a brand new thing with you personally. See, I've already begun to do it. Don't you see it?" In the land of New Beginnings, we must remove the masks and veils that have formed in the past season so we can now form our “true” vision for the future. Isaiah 41:15 ("Behold, I will make you to be a new, sharp, threshing instrument which has teeth; you shall thresh the mountains and beat them small, and shall make the hills like chaff.") has become a keyword for us. There is authority and dominion for us in the invisible world. This will allow us to display the wisdom of God to the powers and principalities that have blocked you in past seasons. Jeremiah 15:19 - "If you return, then I will restore you - Before Me you will stand; and if you extract the precious from the worthless, you will become My spokesman." In 2025 as we allow the Holy Spirit to move through us, we will be constantly searching for those whose lives are formless and void. We will become a bridge for them into the glorious, creative purposes of God. OUR INDIVIDUAL DESTINY Our unique inheritance in Christ includes many facets, such as our individual DESTINES, or that which God is longing to accomplish through each life for His glory. God offers us supernatural ability and power to fulfill our DESTINIES and His plans for us with limitless resources. "Before you were born, I set you apart for a special work," says the Lord. - Jeremiah 1:5 We must constantly ask, knock, and seek to understand our Christ calling and carry out what God wants us to bring forth in His Kingdom. (Matthew 7:7) We are called to succeed in advancing the Kingdom of God on earth -- to walk in overcoming victory: "…because as He is, so are we in this world" (1 John 4:17). The awe of God is returning to believers (to fulfill God's PURPOSE for their life), filling their hearts with great expectation (Isaiah 64:1). Expect to behold great and mighty things to be accomplished (Jeremiah 33:3) so that the Great Commission can usher in the Kingdom of God to displace the Kingdom of darkness. Matthew 7:8 -- "For everyone who keeps on asking receives; and he who keeps on seeking finds; and to him who keeps on knocking, the door will be opened."

John 15:5 - "I am the vine; you are the branches……apart from Me you can do nothing." You were born to consult God to find out His PURPOSE for your life so that you can discover your vision for advancing His Kingdom. Revelation 1:8 - "I am the Alpha and the Omega." God is not only the Author of your vision, but also your continuing Support as you progress toward its fulfillment. When you have been pressed, criticized, and opposed, you can become weak in faith. You shrug these things off because you have built yourself up in understanding the scriptures that have to do with your Christ identity. You don't try to explain and give an answer for everything because you can't explain anything to critics. Their motives are already contaminated, and they'll use your words against you. Through building yourself up in the scriptures that have to do with your Christ identity, God encourages you to get back out in the fight of faith. 1 Timothy 6:12 - "Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses." ALBERT FINCH MINISTRY Statement of Faith https://www.nf127.org/statement-of-faith Ministry Phone: 281-396-4379

Genesis 32:24 And Jacob was left alone. And a man wrestled with him until the breaking of the day. When the man saw that he did not prevail against Jacob, he touched his hip socket, and Jacob's hip was put out of joint as he wrestled with him. Then he said, "Let me go, for the day has broken." But Jacob said, "I will not let you go unless you bless me." The Lord looks for something in us that will not settle for less than His best -- His blessing. Jacob had this desperation in his life. He would not let go until the Lord blessed him. We need to learn to wrestle with God, press-in to the reality of His Presence. We don't need to wait for something to happen. Instead, we need to stir that which God has already put inside of us. It is our hunger and thirst for Him that will BREAK US into a greater reality of His glory. 2 Timothy 1:6 - " For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands." BREAKTHROUGH TO BLESSING Some have said that what is better than a miracle is breakthrough. Breakthrough leads us into God's CALLING (God's PURPOSE for our lives) - our DESTINY. "Therefore, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh…..if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new." -- 2 Corinthians 5:16-17 The first step to getting out of the box is to fellowship with the God of the breakthrough. The Holy Spirit will charge you with fresh vision and fruit bearing boldness concerning your Christ calling PLACE OF SPILLOVER When we experience a revelation of our breakthrough, we move ourselves into a place of blessing and overflow, spilling over into the lives of others. We can be greater blessing to discipling others' lives when we live in Kingdom breakthrough. The beginning to living in breakthrough is found in our own times with God as we develop a consciousness for advancing His Kingdom as we bring the Great Commission forth. Here are a few of the weapons that we can use for breakthrough: WORSHIP, PRAISE, AND THANKSGIVING Psalm 100:4 - "Enter His gates with thanksgiving and into His courts with praise: be thankful unto Him and bless His name." We are to be continually offering our praise to God. It is a huge key to breakthrough. The extra note is "with thanksgiving." Our heart attitude plays a major role in breakthrough. Thanksgiving is the good foundation to entering into the "spirit of worship." Otherwise we will just be spouting empty, worthless words. REVELATION Asking the Holy Spirit to pour out the spirit of revelation and wisdom will help us to break through. When we are receiving His words, they cannot be taken away. His words break up the ground of our hearts, making us ready for His will. This is our conversation with God. We speak to Him, but now He speaks to us. Remember that God always has something to say and show us, the question is ARE WE LISTENING? Dreams, visions, and the inner voice are all ways God speaks to us. THE WORD OF GOD By confessing out loud and meditating on the Christ identity scriptures and promises to the believer in God's word we receive the revelation of breakthrough. PRAYER - SPIRIT OF UNDERSTANDING When we pray with our spirit, it accelerates our strength within. We are building up our most holy faith. Our spirit needs attention, being strengthened by our active communion with God. Your time in communion with the Lord will raise you to that "Come up here, let me show you something you didn't know before" place for substantial breakthrough. "I saw a door open in heaven and heard the same voice speaking to me, the voice like a trumpet, saying 'Come up here: I will show you what is to come in the future.'" - Revelation 4:1 SOAKING We need to make a habit of getting quiet before God, stilling all the noise of voices and the soul. Our society is geared to be noisy with busyness as the gauge of whether you are accomplishing anything. We need to be committed to just "soak" in God's presence. To be ever present with Him is to be acutely aware in every moment that He is in us and we are in Him. Out of that present awareness, that place of oneness, we will begin to flow from His boundaries and borders, and not be confined any longer to our old mindsets. Expect exponential blessings in your breakthrough. Expect faith upon faith to rise up! Expect advancement from strength-to-strength! Expect to go from glory-to-glory as God opens impossible doors for the advancement of His kingdom and His glory.

Luke 18: 1-8 - Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not lose heart saying: "There was in a certain city a judge who did not fear God nor regard man. Now there was a widow in that city; and she came to him, saying, 'Get justice for me from my adversary.' And he would not for a while, but afterward he said within himself, 'Though I do not fear God nor regard man, yet because this widow troubles me I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.'" Then the Lord said, "Hear what the unjust judge said. And shall God not avenge His own elect who cry out day and night to Him, though He bears long with them? I tell you that He will avenge them speedily, nevertheless,when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?" Jesus challenges our modern traditions. He asks, "When the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?" His question is a warning to Christians who would limit the power of God at the end of the age. Jesus is calling us to resist the downward pull of our traditions; He is asking us individually, "Will I find faith in you? Jesus associates faith with "day and night" prayer (Luke 18:7). He is not asking, "Will I find correct doctrines in you?" The Lord's question does not so much concern itself with our head as with our heart. What we believe is important, but how we believe is vital in securing the help of God. Indeed, procuring the SUPERNATURAL HELP OF GOD is exactly the point of Jesus' parable in Luke 18. His intent was to show that "at all times" we "ought to pray and not to lose heart" (verse 1). To illustrate the quality of faith He seeks, He followed His admonition with a parable about a certain widow who petitioned a hardened judge for "legal protection" (verse 3). Although the judge was initially unwilling, yet by her "continually coming" (verse 5) she gained what was legally hers. Jesus concluded by asking, if an unrighteous judge will respond to a widow's persistence, "will not God bring about justice for His elect who cry to Him day and night, and will He delay long over them?" Jesus said, "I tell you that He will bring about justice for them quickly" (verses 7-8). DESPERATION PRODUCES CHANGE It is significant that Jesus compared His elect to a widow harassed by an enemy. The image is actually liberating, for we tend to conceptualize the heroes of the faith as David or Joshua types – individuals whose successes obscure their humble beginnings. But each of God's servants has, like the widow, a former life that is brimming with excuses and occasions to waver. Look at the widow: She has legitimate reasons to quit, but instead she prevails. Indeed, she refuses to exempt herself from her high potential simply because of her low estate. She makes no apologies for her lack of finances, knowledge, or charm. Giving herself no reason to fail, she unashamedly plants her case before the judge where she pleads for and receives what is hers: legal protection from her opponent. DESPERATION - GOD'S HAMMER How did a common widow gain such strength of character? We can imagine that there must have been a time when, under the relentless pressure of her adversary, she became desperate, and desperation worked to her advantage. DESPERATION is God's hammer: it demolishes the stronghold of fear and shatters the chains of our excuses. When our desperation exceeds our fears, progress begins. We can stay the course because of the enabling of the strength of the Lord in us! We are strengthened deep within so that we stand firm for the promises of the Lord for our life. We lean into the Lord with deep courage to believe for the impossible to be possible. Hebrews 10:23 - "Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is FAITHFUL;" Once we have endured the fire and have received the passion, we must persevere. Jesus didn't quit at Gethsemane. He went all the way to crucifixion! Once we've sustained the fiery furnace we can't give up. We must set our heart like flint, ready to go all the way with God in what He is CALLING us to do (God's PURPOSE for our life). Affirmations: GOD HAS A GREAT DEAL FOR ME TO POSSESS. MY TAKING POSSESSION WILL CONFRONT MY GREAT FAITH AND PERSEVERANCE. GOD IS CONTINUALLY PUTTING NEW CHALLENGES BEFORE ME TO DEVELOP MY FAITH AND PERSEVERANCE AT A DEEPER LEVEL. I REFUSE TO BURY THE INVESTMENT GOD HAS MADE IN ME. I PRESS TOWARDS THE MARK FOR THE PRIZE OF THE HIGH CALLING OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS.

Matthew 15:6 - "Thus have you made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition." Traditions rob believers of their healing. They steal the power from the promises of God. One tradition says that it's not always God's will to heal you. It is God's will to heal you! It says so in His Word. If you don't believe that it is, then you can't pray in faith believing you'll receive. "If it be thy will" won't produce a healing harvest. You must know without a doubt that healing is always God's will for you. Another tradition we hear is that healing has passed away. That there are no miracles today. But the Word of God proves that's not true, In Exodus 15:26, God says, "I am the Lord that healeth thee." He also tells us that He does not change (Malachi 3:6). For healing to pass away, God would have to pass away. Luke 1:37 - "For with God nothing will be impossible." "What would Jesus do?" It is a question Christians are taught to ask themselves when faced with a problem. But when you ask yourself, "What would Jesus do?" in any situation, it is subject to your own interpretation and theology. So, when you try to think of what Jesus would do, you are going back to your flesh! Maybe the reminder should be, "Watch what Jesus does." Watch what Jesus has done in the Gospels or leading me to do. If He prompts you to say or do something -- say or do it. In our Christian walk we are here to manifest Jesus Christ, with whom nothing is impossible! So when you are led to talk to someone, watch what Jesus does. When you pray for your child, watch what Jesus does. When you Confess God's Word into your situation, watch what Jesus does! Keep your eyes on Jesus, with whom nothing is impossible!
