Psalms 119:129-136, “Your testimonies are wonderful; Therefore, my soul keeps them. The entrance of Your words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple. I opened my mouth and panted, For I longed for Your commandments. Look upon me and be merciful to me, As Your custom is toward those who love Your name.
Direct my steps by Your word, and let no iniquity have dominion over me. Redeem me from the oppression of man, That I may keep Your precepts. Make Your face shine upon Your servant and teach me Your statutes. Rivers of water run down from my eyes, because men do not keep Your law.”
The twelfth step on our spiritual journey toward your purpose and fulfilment in life is the Golgotha – Guardian Stone of Establishment. This is the cornerstone of faith that reassures us of God’s divine plan for our lives, saying “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
It is through Jesus Christ and His ultimate sacrifice at Calvary that we can find peace and assurance in this life by entering into a relationship with God. By the grace of God, we have been blessed with strong faith to trust in His divine plan and walk confidently into the paths of abundance that He has chosen for our lives. He has anointed us and appointed us in Christ, granting us the strength to live out our purpose with conviction.
Ephesians 2:4-10, “But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.
For by grace, you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.”
As we continue our spiritual journey to discover our purpose and destiny in life, the twelfth step of progress is called Golgotha. According to Bible teaching, Jesus’ sacrifice at Golgotha signifies a time of transformation, allowing us to be established in Him with God’s anointment.
The journey of spiritual progress is an ever-evolving path with each step offering a new understanding. The twelfth step of this journey, known as Golgotha, is steeped in both historical and religious significance.
Jesus’ death at Golgotha signifies the ultimate sacrifice of unselfish love and serves as a reminder that the highest form of spiritual growth comes from selfless acts. As we continue our spiritual journey towards discovering our true purpose and destiny in life, we must never forget the power of sacrifice and unconditional love that was displayed at Golgotha.
As it is written: ‘I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.’ By accepting Golgotha as the guardian stone of our establishment in the covenant of God, we can rest assured that we are truly walking into our destined path with Him.
With the words “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me”, we are reminded of the power of faith and trust in God. We can build our lives on a foundation of faith and hope when we accept Golgotha as the guardian stone understand our covenant with God. By understanding this concept, we become empowered to achieve anything that is set before us, no matter how difficult it may seem. Through Christ, who gives us strength, nothing is impossible.
Philippians 4:10-20, “But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at last your care for me has flourished again; though you surely did care, but you lacked opportunity. Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content: I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in all things, I have learned both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
Nevertheless, you have done well that you shared in my distress. Now you Philippians know also that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with me concerning giving and receiving but you only. For even in Thessalonica, you sent aid once and again for my necessities. Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that abounds to your account.
Indeed, I have all and abound. I am full, having received from Epaphroditus the things sent from you, a sweet-smelling aroma, an acceptable sacrifice, well pleasing to God. And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Now to our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen.”
The twelfth step on our long journey, Golgotha, known as the Guardian Stone of Establishment, plays a significant role in helping us to progress toward our special calling and purpose in life with God. As we take this twelfth step with renewed determination and strength gained through Christ Jesus, we are reminded that it is He who establishes us with Him in Christ and has anointed us. With each day that passes, we become more enlightened concerning our heavenly destiny. This powerfully comforting truth contained within Philippians 4:13 assures us that “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” as we seek God’s will every day.
2 Corinthians 1:18-25, “For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise and bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.”
Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe.
For Jews request a sign, and Greeks seek after wisdom; but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Greeks foolishness, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.”
The love and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ provides us with a source of everlasting consolation and hope. His presence in our lives can comfort our hearts and help to establish us in every good word and deed. With His guidance, we are able to find solace in the face of difficulty and strength to move forward on this journey of life.
Golgotha serves as a reminder of our ultimate potential when we are purified and kept aware of our purpose in life. By connecting with this stone, individuals can unlock their true power, ready to live out their destined path with purpose.
2 Corinthian 1:20-22, “For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us. Now He, who establishes us with you in Christ and has anointed us is God, who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.”
We can find strength and assurance in the promises of God. He has established us with Himself in Christ, anointed us, and sealed us with His Spirit. Through His grace, we are given the opportunity to glorify Him through our lives. The “Yes” and “Amen” of these promises echo throughout eternity and bring hope to those who trust in Him.
Romans 8:28-30, “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover, whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.”
God’s purpose is to bring good out of every situation. Even when we feel like all hope is lost, God works miracles in our lives, using all things to bring us closer to Him. As believers, we know that no matter what life throws at us, everything will ultimately work together for our good and His glory.
God’s plan for us is to be conformed to the image of His Son, Jesus Christ. This plan of predestination is based on His foreknowledge and love for us. Through this, He desires that we become like Him and live our lives in faith and obedience. As a result, we become part of a larger family – those who are “many brethren” – united together in following the example of Jesus Christ.
God’s plan of redemption is an amazing thing. He has predetermined who will be saved and has called, justified, and glorified them for His glory. Through Christ’s death on the cross, we can be assured of our salvation and our place in eternity with Him. This verse speaks to the power of God’s love for us, that He would go to such lengths to redeem a broken world.
Golgotha, which is also known as the “Guardian Stone of Establishment”, refers to the 12th step in one’s spiritual journey. Through this step, impurities may be burned away so that God can establish a new life for his children – enabling them to live up to their gifts, talents and calling. This process is a key part of destiny-finding, as it allows individuals to recognize what steps they must take in order to obtain their desired outcome.
The power of Golgotha comes from its ability to help people build and maintain the faith they need in order to realize their hopes and dreams. By utilizing this sacred resource, one can gain insight into how best identify and use their gifts, talents and calling in order bring about a realization of destiny.
1 Peter 5:5-11, “Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” Therefore, humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.
But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.”
In today’s society, it is important to remember the importance of humility and respect for our elders. The Bible teaches us that God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble. We must learn to submit ourselves to those who have more experience and wisdom than us, so that we can learn from them and grow in understanding. We must be clothed with humility in order to honor God and ourselves.
We all have burdens and worries that can weigh heavily on our hearts. But there is hope! We can cast our cares upon God and trust in His mighty hand to lift us up during difficult times. He is a loving and faithful Father who cares deeply for His children, and desires to exalt us in due time.
The devil is a powerful adversary, and we must all be vigilant in our fight against him. We must be sober-minded and wise in our decisions, knowing that the devil seeks to devour us. Standing firm in our faith is essential to resisting him, as we can take heart knowing that others have gone through similar sufferings. It is only through the power of God that we can prevail against the wiles of the devil.
The God of all grace is the source of our strength and hope in times of suffering and difficulty. He calls us to His eternal glory through Jesus Christ, and with His help, we can be perfected, established, strengthened and settled. As believers, we are blessed to have such a loving and merciful God who grants us the gifts of strength, peace and joy. Let us give Him the glory and dominion that is due to Him!
