Live what you believe
The Word of God is like the mirror
Your identity is determined by what mirror you are looking in
Adam, who told you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree...?
The Jesus you know is determined by what mirror you are looking in
We come to the mirror with a idea to change into the person we ought to be
People around us will look strange on us if we don’t change what we ought to change
Mirror wasn’t made to change you but to reveal your true condition
Mirror is used to reveal only the our face the rest of us can be revealed by our face (Jesus is the Head of the Body)
We ought to seek the fresh revelation of Jesus not a fresh blessing from Jesus, after having Jesus we have everything
Grace is not license to sin
We are saved by grace but by works but by our works we loose salvation
James 1:21-25
Hearers are deceivers unless they are doers
Will be blessed in what he does
Hearing is NOT enough
Difference between listening and hearing
Matthew 13
Four types of “listeners” – one didn’t understand; another had diseased theology (afraid of persecution); another had heart decease (attached to the riches – greed)
Just because you heard the word – it does not mean that your life is going to be changed
Matthew 7:24-27
Listening is not enough
Destruction of stability of your life is not dependant on listening but doing, but doing is dependant on listening
The word of God has no power in your life if it’s stuck in you ears not in your heart and actions
Praying is NOT enough
Matthew 7:21-23
They say: “Lord, Lord...” – they are prayer warriors
Luke 13:24
Strive to enter cause many will seek to enter and will NOT be able to (vs.24)
These are prayer warriors (vs.25)
We ate and drank in Your presence (vs.26)
We received revelations as a result of being in Your presence (vs.26)
You are workers of iniquity (vs.27)
Using God’s gifts is not enough
Matthew 7:21-23
Gifts of the Holy Spirit are not earned but free of charge
Casting the devils and prophesying and doing wonders in not in the name of your holiness but the Name of Jesus
Joshua 1:8
The only reason we ought to meditate and read this book is to... observe according to all that is written in it...for only then you will be successful...
Adjust your lifestyle and thoughts to the standard shown or revealed to you by the Holy Spirit
