Persistence Is A Lifestyle
October 4, 2008 Saturday 9:30 AM North Hills, CA
Even after receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit, Christ continued in a lifestyle of persistent pursuit after the Father. As a result, the Spirit continued to descend upon Him so that He was filled with the fullness of the Father. We must commit to a lifestyle of persistence, so that this outpouring will continue to descend and to remain. As with Christ, the fullness of the Father indwelling within us is attainable only through persistence.(12:26)

The violence that takes the Kingdom begins with the purification of the intercessor himself. Intercession isn’t a position, it is a relationship with the Lord.

If you receive a Word from the Lord and do not persist in it you will seek in frustration for another Word and another to bolster your faith, and eventually will abandon the Word in futility. Get a Word and pursue it persistently. One Word is enough to move an age. Do not confuse hope with faith or anticipation with appropriation. When God gives a present Word, persist in His present fulfillment. “When we heard this Word it created us.” (53 1/2 min.)
