John 15: 9-179 As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide
in My love.10
If you keep My commandments, you willabide in My love, just as I have kept My Fathers
commandments and abide in His love.11 These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may
remain in you, and thatyour joy may be full. 12 This is
My commandment, that you love one another as Ihave loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this,
than to lay down ones life for his friends.

14 You are My friends if you do whatever Icommand you. 15 No longer do I call you servants,for a servant does not know what his master isdoing; but I have called you friends, for all thingsthat I heard from My Father I have made knownto you. 16 You did not choose Me, but I chose youand appointed you that you should go and bearfruit, and thatyour fruit should remain, that
whatever you ask the Father in My name He maygive you. 17 These things I command you, that youlove one another.

For Those Who Run Part 6 The past few weeks have been full of challenges concerning the way
you think, the condition of our mind and revolutionary action in aoverview of a system. The system or culture of this world hasinfluenced the church and now it is time for the church to influencethis system.
It is the way it is supposed to be, Matthew 5:13
13 You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shallit be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out andtrampled underfoot by men.
I want you to think in terms of influence.. The power to change
perception, minds, cities, countries and the world. The ability toimpact decisions and actions of any culture lay in the hands ofinfluential people. We are the commissioned people of influence, thesalt of the earth.

I ask myself this question, Are we trying to dosomething by and of ourselves? The answer is no,then if no is the answer, who are we working with? The answer is Jesus
Im going to be incorporating this section ofscripture for the next few weeks as we look atGods system. I am not going to focus on whatthis culture is doing in these areas but rather how
they have influenced the church and the comingspiritual revolution that we, the church, are goingto be a part of.

Are you expecting a change? The definition ofinsanityis to continue to do the same thing andexpect a different result.
Prayer + Fasting = Humility or Positioning Humility + Co-Laboring = Exaltation of the
Kingdom
As we continue to move forward I want you to
embrace this thought, If it matters to you, it matters to
Him.

Our opening text states some very obvious
things, joy, extravagant love, remaining fruit,
selection, and status..
The area of status
1. Servants dont know what their master is doing.
They are task oriented and obedience
minded
2. Jesus changes the status of the church in this
statement when He says that they are no longerservants but now friends

Friends are more concerned with disappointing
than they are about disobeying.
Friends move from what I do for Him to how is
what Im doing affecting Him
Friends create an environment for Gods love and
the passion of His heart moves and transforms
our heart.
Mary and Martha give us the paradigm through
which to view Gods heart.

Mary was simply learning how to serve from
His presence, instead of pleasing Him from her
service.
Mary wasnt lazy, serving from His presence
simply meant she was fixing the kind of
sandwich Jesus ordered.
Love will always accomplish more than
workers.

God has always been in the business of working with Hiscreation. He didnt have to create man, He did so becauseHe wanted a relationship with them. The two componentsof all relationships are time and communication.
God wants us to be involved in the demonstration of Hiswill.
Adam
Moses
Abraham
When Gods will has been revealed to us, He is expecting usto come into the counsel of His will..

John 16:23-24 (New King James Version)
23 And in that day you will ask Me nothing. Most
assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in
My name He will give you.24
Until now you have askednothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that
your joy may be full..
I have found that I am asking for things in this systemto sustain me instead of asking for Him who is over and
under all that is in this system.
Seek ye first the kingdom of heaven, then all the thingsI need to sustain my natural life will occur!!!

1 Kings 8:15-17 (New King James Version)
15 And he said: Blessed be the LORD God of Israel, whospoke with His mouth to my father David, and with Hishand has fulfilled it, saying, 16 Since the day that I broughtMy people Israel out of Egypt, I have chosen no city fromany tribe of Israel in which to build a house, that My namemight be there; but I chose David to be over My peopleIsrael. 17 Now it was in the heart of my father David to builda temple[a] for the name of the LORD God of Israel.

Listen to this,
God didnt choose a city, He chose a man, and
the idea for a temple was in the heart of aman.
God embraced the creativity and idea of David
because of Davids heart and passion for Him.
God said in those verses, The temple wasnt
my idea but David was my idea

Translates to all desire has a father, it is my
concern that the father of lies has tried and
create the wrong desires in the hearts of Gods
covenant people.

1 Where do wars and fights come from among
you? Do theynot come from your desires for
pleasure that war in your members? 2 You lust
and do not have. You murder and covet and
cannot obtain. You fight and war. Yet[a] you do
not have because you do not ask. 3 You ask
and do not receive, because you ask amiss,that you may spend iton your pleasures.

4 Adulterers and[a] adulteresses! Do you not know thatfriendship with the world is enmity with God?Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the worldmakes himself an enemy of God. 5 Or do you think that
the Scripture says in vain, The Spirit who dwells in usyearns jealously?
Why use the marital terms if we are not in a covenantrelationship ?

Genesis 3:6 (King James Version)
6And when the woman saw that the tree was
good for food, and that it was pleasant to the
eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise,she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, andgave also unto her husband with her; and he did
eat.
When our desires arent Gods desires, then oneof the major components of our purpose and
calling becomes tainted.. Wisdom.
