MEASURING YOUR PROGRESS

But you, beloved, build yourselves up [founded] on your most holy faith [make progress, rise like an edifice higher and higher], praying in the Holy Spirit (Jude 1:20 AMP).

Progress means advancement; moving forward. Progress must be measurable, otherwise, it's not progress. You must have goals; if you don't have definite goals, you may not be able to really measure your progress. In making progress there're certain things you must consider. First, locate your present position in that area of your life in which you desire to make progress. Is it in your health, finance, job, business or family? Whatever it is, locate your present position.

FUEL YOUR PASSION FOR THE GOSPEL!

Never lag in zeal and in earnest endeavour; be aglow and burning with the spirit, serving the Lord (Romans 12:11 AMP). The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the only saving message for the world, and you're a custodian of this life-changing message. It's the message of power by which God saves, heals, protects, delivers, preserves, and prospers. In Romans 1:16-17; the Apostle Paul said, "For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith." Observe those beautiful, Spirit-inspired words carefully; it says, the Gospel is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believes. The Gospel isn't one of the requirements nor part of God's power for salvation, no! The Holy Spirit, penning down this truth through Paul, was absolute! The Gospel is God's ONLY power to save man. You must be convinced about this and become passionate in your spirit for the Gospel. When you're passionate about the Gospel it'll impact those around you. Passion is like fire that must be fuelled, otherwise it'll be extinguished. Therefore you must fuel your passion for the Gospel.

LET THE SPIRIT GUIDE YOU

What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and i will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and i will sing with the understanding also (1 Corinthians 14:15)
One of the numerous benefits of praying in other tongues is the fact that it gets you synchronized with the will, purpose, and timing of God. Those who haven't understood this awesome benefit of speaking in tongues would rather use vain repetitions; numerous words in their understanding to try to express themselves to God. The Lord Jesus already pointed out fruitlessness of praying that way: "But when ye pray, use not in repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking" (Matthew 6:7). What do you tell a God who knows everything? He gave us the ability to pray in other tongues. When you pray in tongues, your spirit is stirred to know the mind of God. In 1 Corinthians 14:15, the Apostle Paul said, "I will pray with the spirit, and i will pray with the understanding also..." He gave pre-eminence to praying in other tongues because that way, the spirit stirs your heart and guides you to pray the will of the Father.

KNOWLEDGE SHALL BE INCREASED IN THE LATTER DAYS

In the last days, the Church is experiencing a new move of the Spirit of God, and it's getting greater and greater as we approach the coming of the Lord. That's why the Lord said through the prophet Daniel, "...seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased" (Daniel 12:4). Note the scripture didn't say knowledge "shall increase," but "Shall be increased," meaning this will be the doing of the Lord; He'll cause more knowledge to be given. "some people think Christianity will be history sometime soon because the world is going through a change. A thousand times, no! It's not about to fold up; rather, it's getting greater by the day, and it will outlive every system,".

THE EARLY AND LATTER RAINS

Talking about the early Church and the latter Church James 5:7, "... Behold, the husbandman waited for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain. The early rain falls to prepare the ground for sowing. We see this outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the Day of Pentecost initiated the early Church. The latter rain, on the other hand, falls to prepare the ground for harvest. That's where we are now; this is the latter Church, as the coming of the Lord draws near.
