WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?
I. QUIT RELYING ON YOUR POWER AND BELIEVE THAT GOD HAS THE POWER TO
WORK IN YOUR LIFE.
“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.
Here’s how you can keep your revival going.
1) Love God passionately. (Prayer
and Bible study.)2) Repent of your sin
regularly
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
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)
4) Humble yourselves and believe in His power to enable you be obedient to His call on your life.
