If you will remain...there is no shortcut to breakthrough

[Worship Warriors]

If you will remain

I was just meditating on John 15: if you will remain in Him, you will have the grace to face :

• any trials , any temptation,
• overcome any mountain of sickness
• you will get the breakthrough you are believing for
• you will get your prayers ANSWERED .... if you will remain

But here is the problem

We all want the above but we are not willing to remain at his feet , to let Him consume all of your heart. The more time you spend at the feet of Jesus, the more you will remain, the more fruit you will bear, the stronger your faith will grow and whatever you ask the Father in my name, He will give it to you.

you cannot build intimacy on the run.

what do you think ? I don't think there is any shortcut to fruit bearing or breakthrough.  you will have to remain and seek his face diligently. The Fathers sees and He will reward you openly

[Who me]

Name it and Claim it, Prosperity gospel ?

 

                                                             No.

 

The key is "⁵ “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing."

If this is true then our prayers will not be for a new car, better job,house etc etc

But we will be praying in accordance with Gods will.

 

That is the requirement which few of us meet.

Yes, to be a Mary and choose the good thing, to sit at Jesus’s feet and learn of Him. 

Remain = abide

Blessings to those willing to remain.

 Much love in Christ, Not me

Well said , to be a Mary of Bethany. This woman poured out such costly ointment at the feet of Jesus.

Hi;

I’m sorry, I believe there is a misunderstanding, it wasn’t the Mary I was referring to.

I was referring to the story of Mary and Martha where Jesus told Martha;

“Martha, Martha you are worried about so many things, but one thing is necessary and Mary has chosen the good thing and it will not be taken away from her.” 

(my paraphrase)

But I wish you well in your seeing into the story of Mary from Bethany that causes your heart to reach out to Jesus, for in that story is a great truth also. 

Blessings, 

Much love in Christ, Not me

Ah, yes. As Not me said, 'abide'. 

 John 15:4  Abide in me, as I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.  KJV

Agreed, no shortcuts to bearing fruit. It takes time to grow.

Just this -

Remain: To me, means to stay with.

Abide: And this means to live with. 

It adds a little more significance, I think.

..."there is no shortcut to breakthrough"

 

Maybe not on Jesus' part, but there sure was for me. For I had no interest in God nor a god at all, but God The Holy Spirit just up and spun me about in an instant. Was not of me, by any desire  or work, nor any of my doing at all.

And here it is some several decades later and that work of God alone is still intact without even a bit of me in play to complete it.  I am not seen by God as wretched; but instead God who cannot abide sin sees me as washed white as snow, in the shed blood sacrifice of His Son alone.

For some,  for multitudes,  for millions,   the "breakthrough" was sleep /death.

(in the wars the last 120 years,  or even all of them).....

Did they pray for death ?   Maybe.   Did they endure to the end ?   Some did.

Why weren't their prayers answered,  to be "kept from the power of the enemy" ?  (in war time, but also in peace time) .....   Why did they die in prison,  after torture,  for no reason at all ?    Millions this happened to.  Millions of believers.

Sometimes we want now what Gods planned to do in us over 40 years (like prepare a pastor for a certain flock in desperate need) because his purposes for us , or the people he wants you to care for won't be ready for 40 years. We see that call 40 years early. But cant see His diligent preperation for it cause we arn't waiting on the Lord as we walk in discernment of the time and season

 Sometimes God is ready to use us now for something and he is supplying us with every good thing for the salvation of someone and we shrink back thinking it not our place because like Israel we dont dicern the time or season. We don't take enough time getting to know God.

I actually think we dont pray for one another enough, either. Probably way too many peopld can't dicern what God is doing or hear him or see where he is working.

Way too many people run off trying to make themselfs into what they think God wants or what they covet or envy in others, or worse create a christian facades and start doing stuff out of its spiritual time and season. 

So walk in loyalty and faithfulness desiring to know God, learn to discern the times and season and know the break through comes at the appointed time.
