A Short Message
Wade E. Taylor
We are living in the time of transition from the rule of Gentile world powers, into the Millennial Kingdom of God. These Gentile world powers are in a process of decreasing, and the Millennial Kingdom is beginning to increase. Most of the Lord’s people have their eyes set on the Gentile world governments, and are praying and seeking ways to bring correction. But instead, we should consecrate our prayers and attention on the developing government of the Kingdom of God, as the Gentile world governments are in the process of being brought to an end.
In the Church Age, the Lord ministered to His people through the giftings and enablings that were imparted to those called to minister. The success of any one of these ministries was based on their ability to yield to and function in these giftings and enablings.
In the Kingdom, ministry is very different. Kingdom ministry relates to those who have come to a complete end of their abilities and giftings, and takes place in those who have become so empty, that the Lord, through these, can come and minister His life to His people.
The Apostle Paul understood this when he said, “I live, yet not I.” That is, “I am so crucified with Christ, and so dead to my life, that the Lord is living and ministering His life through my life.”
Today, many of those who have made a high level of commitment to the Lord are confused. This is because they are still relating their spiritual life experience and ministry to the giftings that they have always functioned in. All this is coming to an end, as the Lord is bringing each of us to the end of our abilities, so His ability can function through us.
Many of us are having “Job” like experiences, in which all that we value is being removed. As Job, it is important that we do not fault the Lord, and that we submit unconditionally to His hand upon our spiritual life experience.
If we will implicitly trust the Lord, and allow Him to live His life through our lives, the Kingdom of God will begin to expand, and in time, will fill the earth.
In 2011, I felt that the Lord was accepting the level of national repentance that is taking place here in America, and the judgments that were coming are being delayed. Instead, there will be a gradually released, end-time ingathering of the lost, and also, all those who are committed to the Lord’s higher purposes will be “lifted” into a higher realm of divine activity.
