“Remain solid and consistent in Me and I will open doors that no man can close. I know that you are learning to trust in Me, but you must also prove that you are trustworthy. You have not lost everything, but you are experiencing a temporary recession to teach you to be patient, and wait on Me.
The scriptures don’t say to only seek Me when things are difficult, or only once in a while, but it says: ‘keep on seeking and knocking’. This is what develops patience and endurance, required to become spiritually mature and seasoned fathers and mothers in the faith, willing to pay the price, to prove their trustworthiness.
That is why there are few spiritual fathers and mothers in the faith, willing to lead through experience and example, because they have experienced the likeness to the life of Christ, with temptation, trials, tribulation and suffering, so that they too can obtain the mind and workings of Christ.
To those who are willing and walk in accordance to the life of Christ as He lived, will experience the fullness of all that I have to give, and they will do even greater works that Christ did. There are few willing and able to go through what I will take to refine and make them ready, totally committed and obedient, without wavering.
Can you take the difficult stand and commitment as Christ when He said: ‘Father, if it be your will, take this cup from me; never the less, not my will, but your will be done’. Those who are willing to take this stand will be greatest in My kingdom.”
