“Even if I have to die with you, I will never

disown you.” (Mark 14:31)

Acts 4:39-31, “‘Now, Lord, consider their

threats and enable your servants to speak you

word with great boldness.

Stretch out your hand to heal and perform

miraculous signs and wonders through the

name of your holy servant Jesus.’

After they prayed the place where they were meeting

was shaken. Andthey were all filled with the

Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly.”

When they HUMBLED themselves and

BELIEVED, God’s mighty power lifted them up and caused them to do many great deeds they could

never have done by themselves.

Have you ever experienced the boldness and courage of the Holy Spirit surging inside of you causing you to do

the impossible for God?

Or has your Christianity been largely a private affair characterized by

you keeping your faith to yourself and living at a “safe distance” from

God?

II. GOD SEES US FOR WHO WE CAN BE, NOT

WHO WE ARE.

When God looks at us He doesn’t see what we are,

but sees what we can become if we HUMBLE ourselves and BELIEVE

that He can work through us.

3) Let your motivation to serve Him come from your intense love for

Him. “For Christ's love compels us, because we are convinced that one

died for all, and therefore

Page 14: WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?. I. QUIT RELYING ON YOUR POWER AND BELIEVE THAT GOD HAS THE POWER TO WORK IN YOUR LIFE

all died. And he died for all, that those who live

should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.

(2 Corinthians 5:14-15)
