Worst enemy wrong conclusion about the plan of God.


Psalms 73 asaph sunday
The problem in life v28 v17 when we become less of a worshipper that you should be
No longer faithful. Not worshipping god the way you should be.
Beneficial to be near from the personal presence of God.
these are the things that happen if we become less than worshippers.
Following wrong conclusions.
1. You will start lookin at others and start feelin bad pf what hey have.v2 being emotionally close. Before asaph was doing it as work. He was not near god.
You start moving away from god.
This starts when you look away from god. Mahirap magbilang ng wala. Ingit ng may ngit ngit.

2. He started believing that god was punishing him everyday. V13
Naktigin ang buhay n iba na marangya. Stop concpuding that god is torturing you. Like a shepherds staff.

3. I will start doubting the love of god for me. V23
U will no be forsaken you will not be abandoned.
Dependence on more is more advantageous for you.
Bakit sila meron ako wala. Paano kitaniwanan i have plans for you.
If a person is greatful makikita an kalooban ng diyos.
Acknowledge god in everything. Be greatful to god in everything.

Your confidence in life must be based on gods eternal decree

Jan 22God has said many things before and after creation which one applies to your life? How do you govern your life now?
Etenal decrees intervention decree and revised decree
Which decree is operational in your life.
Your confidence in life must be based on gods eternal decree
Eph 1 , col 1:15-19;9-14
What has god decreed in.your favor?
1. God has decreed to set the prisoner free.
From domain of darkness to oingdom ofthe son
Domain-jusrisdiction control capacity ability to enforce law greek. Power to destroy you kingdom of darkness. Natangap at point of conversion. Sinabi before eternity ginawa st preent eternity. We have been set free but do you have a hint pf darkness in your life? Compare to real life prisoners being set free.

2. God has decreed the punishable free.
V.13 it is no longer a judicial issue sins have been paid if a christian lies he sins but he is not punishable. But buhay sa mundo maaring maging impyerno. There is a forgiveness of sins. But does eho have not accepted god will suffer the pits of hell.

3. God has decreed to set the powerless free.
V9-12 alipin ninsatan at ng kasalanan. I can be what god wants me to be. Makes you very powerful.
Flowers live to bring glory to jesus christ just the same as we should be. "for him and by him" for him principle.. Iba nabubuhay para sa blessing hindi sa giver ofthe blessing.

Does god really matter?

Jan 21P vic
God's perfect will in your will.
Makes all the difference in the world
When we fail to see the world the way gd wants us to see it, were destined for despair
When we fail to see the light in the times of darkness as god promised were destined for depression
What we need to be as god commanded were destined for disappointment
When. We fail to see ourselves for who we are in light of gods purpose in us; were destined for destruction.

Deepness how we believe in the word of god.
Spirituslity -the nature of ones relationship with god and how that relationship impacts his entire life
Private momnets with the lord generate powerful spiritual experience: set a definite time to be with the lord
Dr j maxwell if u want to keep moving up to your potential, you can t cling to the security of what you now possess.
Growing in his lordship is the key in discoverin his perfect will
Col 3:23-24
How? Choose that which glorify grieve the lord. Whatever! Not being selective of what to glorify with the lord. "what is the reason why you uave chosen w hat you have chosen? What have you done that glorify the lord? "
What? Understand our calling"for the lord"
What hinders you from sharing and showin your christian testimony?
Where? Stand on your conviction even when others compromise."since you know" expose what you believe.. What can you do when others has the tendencies to compromise your conviction?
Why? Perform your work according to the expectation of our lord. "lord.. You are serving" lordship amd servin cannot be separated. Are you conciously doing your work according to the expectation of our lord.? Explain? Is the lord happy with your work or performance?

Choose to glorify not grieve the lord
Understand the calling by heart
Stand on teir conviction even ehen others compromise
Perform rheir work according to tr expectation of the lord.

A spirituality rooted in eternity past

Eh 1and 4 sunday preaching

To understan dcorrect spirtuality today we need to know the roots of eternity
Descrbin spirituality
A lifestyle tha relfects you belie in god is and about what god wants to see in your daily life
Our contention
Correc spirituality today is that which traces it roots to what god has said and did in eternity padt
Eph1:3-7
Jesus looks at you and he sees you as perfect
Unarguable conclusions from these verses.
By gods deceee made in eternity past
1. A no. Of people chosen to be holy and blameles
2. Predestined to become his sons
3. Redemeed by his blood and forgiven of their sins
4. Assigned specific blessings in and through jesus christ
Eph 4:1
Eph 1 describes the roots of spirituality
4 dscribes the actual manefestations f this spirituality that is rooted in eternity
This much is true
The specific number to be aave d has a specific spirituality expected of them as gods chosen people matt 7:21
An pagigin spiritual ay nakabase sa sinabi ng panginoon.
The main transistion question

And your ability to detect the the perfect will of god for you.
Col 1:9-14
Discover perfect will of god

Does god allow or want, wisdom is not from us. We need the correct ability to see the situation in the perspective of God. Or the light of god's perspective.
Red sea and egyptian problems. Acquire your wisdom from God.

What God wants

Psalm 37

Romans 12
All in for jesus
Story of roger younderlain pete fleming jim elliot nate saint ed mccully
Have you made that decision regarding christ
If not it may be because you still have questions:
"is understanding the mind and will pf God for your life"
Do you love the lord and want to honor him with your life
Hav you asked should i serve more gove mre and stufy more
Even if you have been a follower of christ for many years are these questions still in your mind?
Rom 12:1-2
Basis of. commitment
Therefore i urge you, brothers in. Iew of gods mercy
The apostle paul is commanding christians to action
The command : offer yourself as a pving sacrifice to god
The motivation for thr command; in view god's mercy

The character of the commitment
Commitment is total amd reasonable
To offer your bodies as living sacrifices..
You were captive of sin! You were a slave to thr world system
Jesus redeemed you out of the slavearket of sin
Commitment is total amd reasonable
Total commitment: to offer your body as living sacrofices
Your body - your entire being (mind body and soul)
Deut 6:5
And so when we think of commitment we fear
What are we going to lose! What we are going to give up! How much we are going to serve! What we are going to have to change!
Reasonable commitment
Holy and pleasing to god -this is your spiritual act of worship
All of life is sacred when we commit our life to God
All we do is an act of worship
1 cor 10:31

The demands of commitment
12:2
Negative command!
The world wants to buy you too!
It offers fame and popularity!
It offer power, riches, sex!
Positive command
Dont be conformed passively by the world but be transformed by the renewing of the mind
How to act flows from how you think

Stop allowing yourselves to be molded by the influences and pressures of this present world we live in
Stop allowing satan and his demons to dupe you, con you use you trick you promise you life and love and power tha t will

Effects of commitment
Then you will be able to test and approve what gods will is his good pleasin and perfect will
Knowing the will of god and knowing the mind of god, comes from knowing the word of god, which renews and cleanses your mind!
Get deeper in the word of god
Nurture alife of prayer and fasting
Br an activr member of your church/fellowship
God knows what is best for you
Gods plan for your life is best for you
So in light of all god has done for you how are you goin to respond?

You can take all lord
My dreams goals futurre
Famil snd possession
