The Divine Purpose
The Divine Purpose
The Divine Purpose as revealed in the prophetic Word concerning the New Covenant ministration:
“But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put My law in their minds, and write it on their [a]hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. No more shall every man teach his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the Lord. For I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.”
Jeremiah 31:33-34 (which is also quoted in Hebrews 8:10-11).
The Divine Purpose
Those who are His labor to this ONE END. We are to empty ourselves of all that we know of Him into the lives of those around us until His people are full of the knowledge of the Lord within themselves.
“And daily in the temple, and in every house,
they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.”
Acts 5:42
“It is not a minister’s wisdom but his conviction which imparts itself to others. Nothing gives life but life. Real flame alone kindles other flames; this was the power of the apostles: “We believe and therefore speak.” Firm faith in what they spoke, that was the basis of the apostles’ strength.”

I’m sure glad our “vine” does not go into winter stasis like all the plants in our winters. God is a continuous wellspring into everlasting life.
Yes – amen and even in old age…
