Isaiah 43:18
1 peter 2:9- You are a chosen generation
Papa’s Got a brand new Bag
It’s time for God to get a chance to work with a people and do something NEW!
Everything big thing god has done- Should be a celebrate
PASSOVER- FULFILLMENT
PENTECOST- POWER
Feast of Tabernacle- Celebrated two rains- former and latter rains
That had never been done
Jeremiah 1:8-10
WE have to tear down- So we can plant and start something new
Every demon in hell- can’t change the word of God
But Christians and their traditions- Can leave the word of God powerless
Christians wont’s give up what God has done-
SO HE CAN DO SOMEHTING NEW
It’s the things God has done in the past for you- that’s your biggest obstacle
Seminaries- They’re good at teaching what God has said or what God has done
But who’s teaching the preachers what God is going to do & going to say
So every year-THOUSANDS graduate and have no idea what God is doing
Matthew 15:5- Your traditions have made the word of God of have no effect
IF God’s going to do something new- HE’ll tell somebody
Amos 3:7
Isaiah 42:9
When God says something- IT ALWAYS COMES TO PAST
You cant stop it- HE’ll use you or someone else
But once he’s brought it to past- LET IT PASS
DON”T HOLD ON TO IT FOREVER
GOD wants me to do a new thing- but he told me first
John 16:13
It’s the Holy spirit’s job- to tell us what’s coming
But God is looking for someone to listen to HIM- So he can tell you
Charismatics are all about activity- but it has no function
GOD WANTS US TO HAVE A FUNCTION
HE’S GOING TO LET US IN ON THE SECRET- so we can give him the credit
HEBREWS 8:5
Everybody wanting to be the first church- if we do it how they do it
SO we get -Filled- apostles, prophets…, elders, deacons,- we’ll have revival
I can show you 100’s churches- that have it all in order- they’re failing
You can have a beautiful wineskin- it’s the wine- that brings revival
LISTEN- all of these things have a purpose-
IT”S a great blueprint- but if we cant build on it- we’re useless
Watchman Nee- Russia- 30’s- about to become communistic- moved to HOMES- that was new
All these home churches- aren’t healthy for the KINGDOM
SO many doctrines- division
People justify it- By Acts or WATCHMAN NEE
We should be on a DIVINE ORDER- Not looking at past- LISTENING TO GOD
Hebrews 3:3-6---- The builder gets get more glory than the House
Vs 6- The church is God’s house
Who gets more glory- US or the builder-
Most want to talk about the CHURCh
We see in churches- people worship the building more than the BUILDER
---Lots of beautiful BUILDINGS- Not a lot of HIM
In the GARDEN- tree of knowledge---tree of Life
Don’t eat of the tree of knowledge-----Eat all you want from the tree of LIFE
Too many Christians- want knowledge----Not eating LIFE
WE get a lot of pressure to home school-
Great for a lot of parents-
WHAT ABOUT THE SINGLE MOM OR DAD
You give your kid’s life- they can make in any school
So many people reading books to become smarter- I LOVE BOOKS
GET SOME LIFE
We can work on church STRUCTURE- if we don’t have life- doesn’t matter
We need the knowledge of God- LOGOS
WE can’t do it without life- RHEMA
What God wants from us- TODAY
May not be- what he wants to tomorrow
YOU don’t have to build your marriage exactly like the book-
That guy wrote it for HIS WIFE- not YOURS-
HER HUSBAND- not YOURS
Never be afraid to try something new
“IF THE HORSE YOUR RIDING IS DEAD, FOR GOD’S SAKE--DISMOUNT”
What God wants to tell you- will never contradict the written word
As your pastor- I’m gonna quit eating from the tree of knowledge
Start eating from the tree of LIFE
Illustration- God speaks to Moses in a bush-
In a matter of weeks delivered all
Red sea- Get in the desert- wanted to be in EGYPT
Their past was keeping them from their future
Had to wander 40 yrs- let all the dead heads die of
It took 2 weeks to children out of egypt
It took 40 years- To get egypt out of the children
God wants to do something in you that is new-
In this body- in your family-
at your job- in your career
