Chapter 10
Remember the father is seeking for us to stand in the gap
The Holy Spirit is drawing us to a standing point
as we go forward we may at some point
as we stand in the gate be reminded
of someone or something to reach out to.
If a scripture opens this then pause for a while
and allow the Holy Spirit to reveal it.
Heart, we delight that
our adequacy, our glory,
our reassurance, our security,
the justification of our value,
our eternal significance
is not from the validation they give.
God is the one who justifies us.
we set our affections on You Lord
and is not from
how well they advertise us
how well they advertise us
and tell other people about our ministry.
we turn from wanting fame as our glory
(heart, hear, believe, and love it as the truth!)
is not from miracles or
from people being healed.
Miracles are what God does,
from people being healed.
Miracles are what God does,
not me
and is not from “ministry” that we do!
Since we are giving God a place for Him to dwell,
any ministry that happens
any ministry that happens
is all ministry that Jesus is doing!
Lord we love that by receiving the kingdom,
we are making it easier
for You to minister to people
because we arem giving you
a way to be here more fully

wants to do through us.
All that God plans for us shall come to pass.

we nurture others spiritually.
we set our heart to love the presence of God!
we love Your closeness Lord
(heart, hear, believe, and love it as the truth!)
we reject ministry as a way to feed our pride.
our fruit comes from God
we will feed on Him
and not on results from us
God is their Shepherd, their Savior.
we will lead them to You Lord
and not to ourself.
The ministry that happens is because God
is with us and HE is doing His ministry

the restorer of the streets in which to dwell”
(Isa. 58:12).
we can be a witness about God’s glory
we don’t have to be a witness about
the glory of the little “gods” of this world:
“For God has shone in our hearts
to give the Light of the knowledge
of the glory of God in the face of Christ.
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels,
so that the surpassing greatness of the power
will be of God and not from ourselves”

we don't have to tie on plastic grapes
and call it spiritual fruit
“Abide in Me, and I in you.
As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself
unless it abides in the vine,
so neither can you unless you abide in Me.
I am the vine, you are the branches;
he who abides in Me and I in him,
he bears much fruit,
for apart from Me you can do nothing
My Father is glorified by this,
that you bear much fruit,
and so prove to be My disciples”
