Prepare to Walk and Minister on the Highway of Holiness with the Lord

BY JOSEPHINE HUBBARD

Everyone who has accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior has been blessed with spiritual gifts. These gifts are to be used to foster the Lord's kingdom here on earth. God calls us each for a specific and unique purpose. In order to fulfill our divine destiny and glorify God there are several things we must do.We must understand the times and the season that we are living in.Isaiah 42:9 states: "Behold the former things have come to pass, and new things I declare; Before they spring forth I tell you of them.

Isaiah 43: 18, 19 and 21 states: "Do not remember the former things nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing. Now it shall spring forth. Vs 21: This people I have formed for myself. They shall declare My praise.We are the people FORMED TO SERVE God these scriptures are referring to. Isaiah 11:11 and 12 tells us the season we are in today. "In that day the Lord will reach out his hand a second tine to reclaim the remnant that is left of his people from Assyria, from lower Egypt, from Upper Egypt, from Cush, from Elam, from Babylonia, from Hamath and from the islands of the sea."God is recovering the remnant of His people who are left. And He, the Lord, will gather them from the four corners of the earth. And it is now the season for ministers to go forth as the Lord leads as never before and declare the Lord's praise and together with Christ draw the remnant out of darkness into His marvelous light.A great revival is about to erupt in America like the Azusa Street Revival.Where will this remnant go?

Isaiah 35 describes the Future Glory of Zion that we are about to see on the earth.Isaiah 35: 8 - 10 states: " And a highway will be there it will be called the Way of Holiness. The unclean will not journey on it; it will be for those who walk in that Way; wicked fools will not go about on it. No lion will be there, nor will any ferocious beast get up on it' they will not be found there. But only the redeemed will walk there, and the ransomed of the Lord will return. They will enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their heads. Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away."What is the your role in this upcoming move of the Lord?"Watchmen shall lift up their voices, with their voices they shall sing together. For they shall see eye to eye."There will be unity and solidarity among intercessors, gatekeepers, those in the five fold ministry. All followers of Christ will have a part in this upcoming revival."Set your heart toward the highway." Jeremiah 31:21 - The Lord is holding the watchmen accountable. ALL believers in Jesus Christ have the responsibility to witness to the lost and help fulfill the Great Commission.Whenever the Spirit of the Lord is poured out from on high there will be a powerful revelation of God's glory and splendor."Set up road signs, put up guideposts, take note of the highway, the road that you take."Expand your ministry publicity, the way others know about prayer meetings, conferences, solemn assemblies, church services, etc.Watch out for false prophets and false teachers. Discern character, motives and test the fruit in life and in their message. BE HOLY1 Peter 1: 13 - 16 - "Therefore prepare your minds for action; be self-controlled, set your hope fully o the grace to be given you when Jesus Christ is revealed. As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: "Be holy, because I am holy."God is calling His people to be set apart for love, for service and for worship of God. If we live holy obedient lives doing God's will God's way Isaiah 11: 2 - 3 will be accomplished to equip us to minister: "The Spirit of the Lord will rest upon you- the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of power, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord.

And you will delight in the fear of the Lord."BECOME A RESERVOIR OF THE SPIRIT'S TRUTH AND FRUIT.A water reservoir is a place where water is kept in store - where it is collected and stored until it is needed. We, by God's power and His equipping will serve him by keeping our temples clean and be empty vessels and become His reservoir of the Spirit's truth and bear much fruit.When the Lord takes us up on the High Road, we are to "Stay on the High Road with the Lord." We are not to take any detours. Ephesians 2:10 - "For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."

Micah 6:8 - "He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God."Live close to the Lord Jesus Christ and be open to all that He is doing in you. Don't try to control the move of the Holy Spirit through you. Just keep your focus on the Lord and walk with Him each day and night in His holy presence. To those who are willing, God is getting ready to enlarge your current territory and expand your present ministry job descriptions.

Be still and know that I Am is still the great I Am and that I AM is with you.
