Fullness of the Father

There is a calling that supersedes all other callings. Paul the apostle called it the high call. For all those who will have ears to hear, listen to the wisdom of the Spirit.

This high call consists of God's people encountering the fullness of the Father, making that goal their number one priority. For many years, the enemy has worked overtime trying to get the focus off of this simplicity and onto people's individual calls, individual dreams, and individual aspirations. There is nothing wrong with these things, but there is a higher call. The Holy Spirit desires to bring every believer to the point where they can say, "I count everything else in my life garbage in the light of knowing Him." This is essential to the outpouring that is coming soon.

The Holy Spirit's desire is that not just a few would have a focus like this, but collectively, the Body would humble itself and set its goals higher on the fullness of the Father. Men's dreams and men's goals for the Lord are not enough to get the job done. There must be a pressing toward the mark of this high call of God in Christ Jesus. This needs to be the mindset of the Body. This high call will never change and needs to be set in stone. Some will say that this is a season of getting to know Him deeper. No, this is the focus and must remain your focus until the end, for there is no greater dream or goal than this one. And when you hold to the Head, which is Christ Jesus, you will receive the full nourishment that is needed to accomplish every task at hand.

Many in this day are saying dream big, but the Spirit is saying it is not big enough. Many have lost the sight of the glory of God or they have never experienced enough of the fullness of God to realize that this is not only available, but this is what fills the temples and brings the teaching of the Gospel into full manifestation. Some want glory for  themselves, and there is no way that these two can live side by side.

So, again, press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus and be found in Him in total. Be consumed; let this fire burn deep. Take your laser focus and put it on knowing Him and spend as much time that is needed in fellowship. Signs and wonders, healings, fresh manna from Heaven, waves of the Spirit, and all types of ministries will flow like water, uninterrupted by man, and the enemy will have to say that this flood is too strong and too severe and he will lose his hold. And as long as you remain with this mindset, the waters will not stop flowing--filled to overflowing. It is one thing to be hungry, but it is another thing to be hungry and to know that you are full and you will remain full.
