His Plan – The Perfecting Of His Sons Today

Summary:

The Father is perfecting a people's spirits so that they will respond with His nature. As we decrease and He increases, we find His lordship increasing in our lives and we walk in the Spirit and not on the soul level. As we give over our wills to do His will, we find that we are His workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works which He beforehand created for us to walk in.

And we know that God causes all things, to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren, and whom He predestined, these He also called, and whom He called these He also justified and whom He justified, these He also glorified.

Take Away:

God's plan and purpose is to raise up sons in the likeness of His first born son, Jesus Christ. Through the process of us decreasing and His nature increasing in us we are being perfected and are becoming His workmanship – His sons in the earth.
