0024 Obsticles on the Way

Obstacles on Your way

Not seeing the complete picture of God? vs.13

Not seeing the complete picture is what?

Do you see what God sees?

You can’t question Gods statement, but you can reason with Him

Isaiah 1:18 “come now, let us reason together…”

Isaiah 41:21 “Present your case, the Lord says, bring forward your strong arguments, the King of Jacob says”

Isaiah 43:26 “Put Me in remembrance; let us argue our case together, state your cause, that you may be proved right”

Gideon Saw: God is with His people, then God’s people can’t be in bondage; miracles must exist;

The reason why it’s not happened is because the Lord has abandoned us and given us into the hand of the enemy

Seeing the compete picture gives you strength

What do you see? Jeremiah 1:11

Without Vision the People Perish Hosea 4:6

What is Compete Picture?

God is concerned about City

Jonah 4:11 “Should I not be concerned about that great city?”

God pours out care through Church

Acts 1:8 “but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit will come upon you; and you shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth”

Church believes in Almighty God

Mark 16:17 “and these signs will accompany those who have believed: in My name they will cast our demons, they will speak with new tongues; they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it shall not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”

Miracles bring worship unto Him

Lack of Possessing vs. 15

You have reasons why God will not use you, backed up!!!

Gideon, his parents not Christians, family least, youngest

Don’t allow the lack of possessing stop listening to God

The only way you will seek God like nobody else, if you wouldn’t have anything

5 loaves 2 fish – believe Jesus, don’t rush, allow Him to create a miracle

Allow God to a miracle

Moses Exodus 3:11, 4:10

God placed him into the desert to make him empty

David was the youngest, not a soldier, in the battle he had rock only

Allow God to show Him self in your weakness

Glory will be given unto Him, because you are nothing without Him

Not Having Passionate Heart for God

Why people don’t pray for revival? They don’t want Him to be exalted

Passion changed nations…

Don’t worship because of getting something from Him

Passion means resistance Judges 6:25-27

Idol – not worthy of respect – destroyed

Idolatry is the FIRST SIN

Resist the Devil James 4:7

Cast out demons, not friendly stuff

David – remove your head

Shadrach, Meshach, Abed-nego – passion made him go against the law

Daniel 3:17 “if it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the furnace of blazing fire; and He will deliver us from your hand, O king, but even if He does not, let it be known to you, O king, that we are not going to serve your gods or worship the golden image that you have set up”

By respecting the enemy you are setting yourself for big trouble

Passion gets persecuted Judges 6:30

Real passion for God, will not get you out of trouble it get you in the trouble

Shadrach, Meshach, Abed-nego – through in fire

By devil through people

Passion gets rewarded Judges 6:18, 21

Shadrach, Meshach, Abed-nego – king bow down before God, lifted them up
