Whatever Your Hand Finds, Do!

2. "There," he growled, "is a sleeping giant. Let him sleep. If he wakes, he will shake the world." He was referring to China.

3. Similarly, today, in the halls of hell, Lucifer points to a spiritual map of the world. You can almost see the fire belch from between his teeth and see the fear in his eyes

as he beholds the church’s unmeasured potential.

4. He too growls, "Let the church sleep! If she wakes, she will shake the world!"

5. The church, worldwide, is a sleeping giant. If every member of the Church of Jesus would stand up and begin to exercise their full power, the kingdom of darkness would be shaken to its foundations!

6. We have two choices: Either to be lulled into sleep by the lullabies of the devil, or to rise up and get busy doing the work of the Lord.

7. Paul exhorted us to “Stir up the gift of God which is in you.” To “STIR” means to “create a state of disturbance, to agitate, to begin activity; to mix something up.”

8. What do you say we disturb the kingdom of darkness and mix up all the demons by all putting our hands to the plow and giving God all we’ve got?

B. THE CALL

1. If Jesus Christ were to come back today, would you be ready? Jesus told the Laodicean church, “Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have not found your deeds/works complete in the sight of my God” Rev. 3:2. Would He tell us that today?

2. Do you need to find a work to do? Raise your hand. We’ll pray for God to show you what to do, then get with me and I’ll give you some options.

3. Do you need a new passion in your walk?
