The real issue and question for every believer is not, “Are you good enough to get into heaven?” It's, “Are you abiding in God and well-aligned with the Holy Spirit to bring Heaven down to Earth?”

Your life as a believer is not about waiting around for Jesus to come back and rescue you, it's about putting on the mantle of responsibility He tasked you with and stepping into the role God created you for.

It's not decrying the mess that is in the world right now, it's declaring what is not as though it is, in order to bring it into existence. It’s not blindly accepting those things you see and hear in the natural as inevitable and irrevocably pitted against God, but resonating with the Spirit of Truth to supernaturally affect your sphere of influence and lift up Christ that He might draw others to Himself.

It's not calling people out for their stuff, it's calling them up to accountability and the potential God empowers them with through His grace. It’s not arguing and fighting with or demonizing people you don’t agree with, it’s knowing that the battle you are fighting is not against flesh and blood at all.

It's not about running from the devil, it's about standing up and taking territory back from him because God has promised it to you, has promised to go before you, and has given you divine power and authority to be successful and more than a conqueror in the name of Jesus.

That is what being a follower of Christ is really about.
