Already Dead! By Natasha Chilikina

Any man who has so assessed himself  as the “filth of the earth” has no ambitions - and so has nothing to be jealous about. He has no reputation - and so has nothing to fight about. He has no possessions - and therefore nothing to worry about. He has no “rights” - so therefore he cannot suffer any wrongs. He is already dead - so no one can kill him. Blessed state!    - Leonard Ravenhill

Ravenhill is awesome. Thanks for this reminder....it serves us all well to live like this.

Every time i read a book or listen to a teaching by Ravenhill, I am so challenged by a simple truth of being a disciple of Jesus...meaning to leave everything that is dear for you...you family, friends, things that are comfortable for you and step into an amazing journey with my Savior Jesus Christ...have Your way Lord!!! I am Yours!!!

I am praying that we (meaning this current Body of believers) can pray in the revival Ravenhill sought after until his death...or that we can also die having been sold out and uncompromised in our efforts.
Jesus is worthy of that and it pains me that I give him less than He deserves.

When you are already dead you can live fearlessly, walking wherever our Savior leads. LOVE that!
