Could it be that right now God is destroying your life?

Perhaps the Holy Spirit brought you to this teaching for this very moment.

You feel like everything around you is falling apart. You feel like you can't find your footing.

Mentally, emotionally, there's a lack of clarity. And the older you is being put to rest.

There's a reason that God is doing that.

It's so that there is less of you and more of him.

It's so that when people look at you, they don't see you.

They see Jesus.

Here's what Jesus said in Matthew chapter 10, verse 39.

If you cling to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for me, you will find it. The old you is being destroyed for a reason. Your suffering is not pointless. The trials will yield results. There is a brighter future for you. God has plans for you,

plans not to harm you, but to prosper you. And as you go through what you're going through,

you will sense this transformation. And you have been called for such a time as this. Holy Spirit, I pray, you help

that one receiving this now to know this truth, to not just receive the information, but that

they would be given the revelation by the spirit of the mysteries of the supernatural realm, of the

things that are occurring right now beyond that veil in the realm of the mysteries of the supernatural realm, of the things that are occurring right now,

beyond that veil, in the realm of the spirit, things that they cannot see.

Give them that understanding right now in Jesus' name.

He cuts off every branch of mine that doesn't produce fruit, and he prunes the branches that do bear fruit so they will produce even more.
