Scripture: Philippians 1:21-26

Philippians 1:21-26 states, “For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. But if I live on in the flesh, this will mean fruit from my labor; yet what I shall choose I cannot tell. For I am hard-pressed between the two, having a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better. Nevertheless to remain in the flesh is more needful for you. And being confident of this, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all for your progress and joy of faith, that your rejoicing for me may be more abundant in Jesus Christ by my coming to you again.”  The Apostle Paul found himself in a unique position.  He was not sure what God wanted him to do.  Was he to check out and go be with the Lord or was he to stay? And in the process of praying that out, he felt the Lord wanted him to stay for growth, development and impartation of the next generation.  There is an impartation of Holy Spirit boldness to be had for the days ahead that is coming through the restoration of the King’s anointing.  There has been an identity theft and God is restoring it.  In that restoration the church will rise up in holy boldness and give a witness that will probably eclipse what we read in the book of Acts.  What a season to be alive and preparing to represent Jesus at the end of the age!
