This will continue until we all come to such unity in our faith and knowledge of God's Son that we will be mature in the Lord, MEASURING UP TO THE FULL AND COMPLETE STANDARD OF CHRIST [Ephesians 4v13] – New Living Translation
David Wilkerson was one of the greatest American evangelists. He was called into ministry at the age of 8 in a camp meeting and was doggedly on fire for God from then. He pastored a church at the age of 23 but when he was about 25, he thought he had seen it all. He resorted to watching TV and Cowboy movies but one day, it dawned on him that there must be more?
The Christian walk is an unwavering walk and therefore we have no time to pull off the road and give in to indecision. At any level of our walk with the Lord, we may be tempted to pull in or think we have seen it all but there is more. God’s idea for us is to measure up to the full and complete standard of Christ. That’s an adventure!
The rich young ruler, after he had been obedience to the commandments of Moses said to himself, there must be more? (See Luke 18v18-22). Are you sluggish or you thinking you have seen it all? Actually there is more!!
Paul said, “Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I PRESS toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus (see Philippians 3v13-14). There is more and there must be more. Reach on!!
