Jesus's messages wasn't for the crowds but for the players. He spoke in parables in crowds, but spent time with his disciples to exlpain it to them through relationship.
Hebrews 12:1-3
-there are witnesses who have finished the race!
-God has a plan for us, a foolproof design to become what he has set out for us to do, but what stops us then?
The way you look at things changes your perception and this influences the truth and the way you see the light.We need to grow in our revelation of who God is!See, if you don't get the value of something you miss the point.
What influences us i how we see God?
1.How do you see God?
-score keeper
-silent one
-non-existant etc
-this depends how u worship him and then how you mold yourself after him
2.Our experiences
-we build God on our experiences
-he can not be influenced through us
-God is a person and he works the way he will choose to -bad experiences can steal ur inheritance and you miss out on Gods blessings in life
3.We can have tunnel vision
-theres a big world and our calling goes furthur than what is going on right now and in front of us.
-Ask yourself these 4Questions DAILY:
-Is there a God? (What does that mean for me?)
-Does God care? (Is he involved?)
-Does God care about me?
-If he does, does He care about what I do?(What you do is important, how, where, with who etc)
-God will move you on when you have accomplished what you needed to.
Why did God put u there? Things then start being an oppertunity!!
So how do we get to a place of changed perception?
Ephesians 4:11-16
-5fold ministry for equipping the saints-the body can grow and be expanded in truth and love to one another.
-there are NO LEVELS of being a servant!!!
Step1:
-knowledge of the son of God!!
-devotion, spirit of God needs to reveal Jesus to you.
Step2:
-speaking the truth in love
-covenant relationships
-we need to be corrected, guided and discipled.
Step3:
-we each have a role to fulfill
-only 20% of the body is carrying all the weight-it'll never work -the 80% who don't pull their weight lose the blessing of serving the body!
-We all have a talent and a gift that fits together to work the best
