We, at Grace and Truth, were told that “We were saved to be a partner/”help meet” in finishing the works of God; to “occupy,” that is, to do kingdom business til He comes.”
[Pastor; Gen 2:18; Lk 19:13]
We were also told, “Part of (man's) identity is that man would be involved in (God's) doings.”
[Pastor]
“For it is God that worketh IN you both to will and to do of His good pleasure.”
[Phil 2:13]
In the Psalms, David (by the Spirit of God) asked,”What is man, that Thou art mindful of him? And the son of man that Thou visitest him?” cf.
[Heb 2:6]
The re-discovery is that, in His 'visitation,' the Lord is exercising oversight over us, to cause a considerable change in our circumstances; either for better or for the worse, “to bring us to an expected end;” that our joy might be full.
[Pastor; Jer 29:11; Jn 15:11]
Can you hear the Lord saying, “Herein is Love, not that your mind is on Me, but My mind is on you? I know what I did, and what I AM doing.”
[Pastor]
“Speak, Lord; for Thy servant heareth.”
[1 Sam 3:9]
