Jesus came to put the kingdom of God back into this world,

Opening:

1. "…I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." (John 10:10)

The literal Greek rendering of “more abundantly” is - That they might have it excessively, extravagantly exceeding abundant above that which is necessary.

2. I want to share with you what God has been sharing with me

a. "For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;"

(1 Corinthians 15:3, KJV)

b. It is said, if you give a poor man a fish, you feed him for a day… If you TEACH HIM how to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.

c. God is impressing upon my heart, that we as a people of God, learn to fish.

We, in conjunction, with the Holy Spirit, will teach you, but you must ultimately learn to fish for yourself.

I have my children beg me to do things for them in the Spirit, that they could very well receive for themselves.

3. You have two choices this morning

1. You can hear from man this morning and hear some good things,

2. Or you can hear from God this morning and receive awesome things, things that will changed your life.
