Stepping
Down In Service
shared by Suzin McNeill
WORD OF THE LORD
The
LORD said, it is time to dig in with an urgency as never before. Those
who are called must stand in their callings or lose them. Those who are
commissioned must stand for their orders ready to serve. Those who have
wandered around a bit must come back to The WORD and prepare themselves
for both battle and holiness. It is simply time to dig in and this is
all
within a quickened timing.Stepping Down In Service Step down from your
high places and come unto Me. You have fashioned much by the works of
your
own hands and I can not bless them. You have struggled for anointing
and
sweat in workings and ministries of your own self. Will you lay down
your
accolades of accomplishments and your résumé's of self
works to
stand in the holy place? I see your talents and callings clearly and I
am not impressed at all with your outreaches
and full temples.
I
call you to My house standing in only My name yet, you stand up proudly
and proclaim your own names in your own ministries. Do you really seek
Me as my servants or do you simply ask Me to bless the self works of
your
own creation. Shall I be impressed with all that you have done in My
name
for your own self proclamations, and self promotions? Come down from
your
high places of pride and self accomplishments. You have rallied a
pastor's
club, a prophet's club, a teachers club, an evangelists club and you
are
well known for it. What about your daily service unto Me? What can you
say of seeking My will for you daily and doing it?
You
reverence holidays more than holy days. Holy days are when My people
simply
do what I speak unto them with their heart in obedience. Step down from
your platforms of recognition and prove yourselves before Me. Do that
which
I commission daily. I would have you reach to the homeless and the
widows
and the hurting. I would have you give to those who have not. I would
have
you support My own prophets and teachers that they would have both time
and rest to come unto Me and to give freely in My services. The highest
call is that of a servant.
Did
My Son proclaim His works and speak boastfully of the anointing? Did He
reach forth to all in need? My son sought only one thing while He
walked
and that alone was My will. When do you set aside all to spend time
with
Me? I hear the answers of twice a year, weekly, and on vacation. In the
days ahead you will survive only by hearing My daily will and doing it.
I am calling today for your consecration and complete dedication to
doing
nothing but My expressed will.
What,
you say you are giving to the poor, and feeding the hungry already,
then,
I say hear Me and go further than your programs. You be the servant
unto
My will. You go and do that which I speak to you daily and then your
accomplishments
will be recorded in both heaven and earth.
The
beauty of Israel is slain upon your high places: how are the mighty
fallen.
You become the servant of My will and I will set you to tear down that
which offends and keeps My Presence from filling My temples. Oh Israel,
My will is not too hard for thee. My will sets you free from dead
services.
My will frees from your father's stale traditions. Come unto Me wholly
and stand in the testing of My will against your own will, and you will
see the dryness of your services spring forth into LIFE. Lose your life
and find it again in My service. Consecrate unto Me in service. Your
callings
are not just your jobs. You are called as a holy people of My own heart
says, The LORD. You are called to serve only My will. As My son JESUS
walked
and simply said come and follow Me, I call you now, saying serve only
ME
by seeking My will and doing it.

Divine Lordship is not a threat; rather it’s the
place of greatest safety.
